How to connect Mailhook and Dropbox
Create a New Scenario to Connect Mailhook 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 Mailhook, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Mailhook or Dropbox will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Mailhook or Dropbox, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Mailhook, 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 Mailhook and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Mailhook 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 Mailhook and Dropbox
Mailhook + Dropbox + Google Drive: When a new email is received by Mailhook, the attachments are uploaded to a specified folder in Dropbox. Then, the same file is copied from Dropbox to a specified folder in Google Drive as a backup.
Dropbox + Mailhook + Slack: Every day, this flow will list all new files added to a specific Dropbox folder. Then, Mailhook is used to create a summary of the new files. Finally, the summary of new files is sent to a Slack channel.
