Dropbox triggers
Events in Dropbox that can start an automation on their own — no clicks required once you set it up.
Fires when a new file is added anywhere in the account (resolved from the account-change webhook via list_folder/continue).
Fires when a new file appears directly in a chosen folder. Same delta as 'New file added' but scoped to one folder path.
Fires when an existing file's contents change — the delta returns the same path/id with a new rev and content_hash.
Fires when a file is removed — the delta returns a DeletedMetadata entry for its path (no size/rev are available for deletions).
Fires when a file's path changes — the delta surfaces as a deletion at the old path plus an add at the new path for the same file_id, which we pair into one move.
Fires when a new folder is created — the delta returns a FolderMetadata entry.
Fires when a folder is removed — the delta returns a DeletedMetadata entry for the folder path.
Fires when a shared link is created for a file or folder (detected via sharing/list_shared_links when the account-change webhook resolves new links).
Fires when someone uploads a file through one of your Dropbox file requests — the upload lands in the request's destination folder and is resolved from the delta.
Fires when a new Dropbox Paper document is created (Paper docs appear in the account delta as .paper entries / are listed via the Paper API).
