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

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

Set Up the Nimble and Dropbox Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Nimble, 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 Nimble and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Nimble 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 Nimble and Dropbox
Nimble + Dropbox + Slack: When a new contact is created in Nimble, a folder is created in Dropbox to store meeting recordings. A message is then sent to a Slack channel to notify the team about the new contact and the location of the recordings.
Dropbox + Nimble + Google Sheets: When a new file is added to a designated folder in Dropbox (likely a project file), the workflow updates the corresponding contact in Nimble. It then adds a row to a Google Sheet logging the file name, link to the file, and the associated Nimble contact.
