How to connect JobNimbus and Dropbox
Create a New Scenario to Connect JobNimbus and Dropbox
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a JobNimbus, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, JobNimbus or Dropbox will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find JobNimbus or Dropbox, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the JobNimbus Node
Select the JobNimbus node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring JobNimbus, Dropbox, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the JobNimbus and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between JobNimbus and Dropbox (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect JobNimbus and Dropbox
JobNimbus + Dropbox + Google Drive: When a new attachment is added to a project in JobNimbus, it is automatically uploaded to a specific folder in Dropbox. Then, that file in Dropbox is copied to a designated folder in Google Drive for backup.
Dropbox + JobNimbus + Slack: When a file is modified in a specific Dropbox folder, the updated file is attached to a Job in JobNimbus. A Slack message is then sent to a designated channel, notifying the team about the updated project document.
