How to connect Monday and Dropbox
Create a New Scenario to Connect Monday and Dropbox
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step

Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Monday, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Monday or Dropbox will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Monday or Dropbox, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Monday Node
Select the Monday node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Monday, 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 Monday and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Monday and Dropbox (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
