Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring LearnDash, 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 LearnDash and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LearnDash 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 LearnDash and Dropbox

LearnDash + Dropbox + Google Sheets: When a user completes a course in LearnDash, a certificate is generated (hypothetically, outside the scope of available actions) and uploaded to Dropbox. The user's data and course completion details are then added as a new row in a Google Sheet.

Dropbox + LearnDash + Slack: When a new file is added to a specific folder in Dropbox (containing course materials), a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to inform instructors.
