How to connect Microsoft SQL Server and Dropbox

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

Save and Activate the Scenario

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

Microsoft SQL Server + Dropbox + Slack: When a row is updated in Microsoft SQL Server, a backup of a specified file is created in Dropbox, and a notification is sent to a Slack channel.

Dropbox + Microsoft SQL Server + Google Sheets: When a new file is added to a Dropbox folder, information about the file is added to a table in Microsoft SQL Server, and the change is also tracked by adding a new row in a Google Sheet.
