Dropbox integration

Dropbox is a cloud storage service offering file syncing, sharing, and collaboration across devices with version control and robust integrations

Connect Dropbox to Xenition and work with it from chat, from an agent, or on a schedule — alongside every other app you have connected, in one workspace.

What you can do with Dropbox

Ask in plain language and Xenition calls the right one:

• Activate team folder — Tool to activate an archived team folder. Use when you need to restore access to a previously archived team folder.
• Add file member — Tool to add specified members to a Dropbox file with configurable access levels. Use when sharing a file with specific users by email or Dropbox ID. Supports custom invitation messages and notification controls.

• Append data to upload session — Tool to append more data to an existing upload session. Use when uploading large files in chunks. When the 'close' parameter is set to true, this call will close the session. A single request should not upload more than 150 MiB.
• Append to multiple upload sessions — Tool to append data to multiple upload sessions in a single request. Use when you need to upload data to multiple ongoing upload sessions efficiently. The file content for each session should be concatenated in the request body in the order specified by entries. A single request should not upload more than 150 MiB. The maximum size of a file one can upload to an upload session is 2^41 - 2^22 (2,19

• Check move batch job status — Tool to check the status of an asynchronous move batch job. Use when you need to poll the status of a batch move operation started with move_batch_v2. Returns a list of results for each entry when complete.
• Check move former member files job status — Tool to check the status of an asynchronous move former member files job.

Give an agent access to Dropbox

An agent you create can use Dropbox on your behalf and keep working while you do something else. Every action an agent takes goes through an approval gate first, so nothing touches your Dropbox account without you agreeing to it.
