Frequently Asked Questions about Dropbox + ShareFile integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Dropbox and ShareFile

How do I integrate Dropbox with ShareFile?

To integrate Dropbox with ShareFile, you'll need to use our integration platform where you can set up Zaps that trigger actions between the two apps. You can create Zaps that move files from Dropbox to ShareFile or vice versa, based on certain triggers, such as a new file being added.

Can I automatically transfer files from Dropbox to ShareFile?

Yes, you can set up a Zap to automatically transfer files from Dropbox to ShareFile. By using a trigger like 'New File in Folder' in Dropbox, you can have the action 'Upload File' in ShareFile execute automatically.

What triggers and actions are available for the Dropbox and ShareFile integration?

For Dropbox, triggers include 'New File', 'New Folder', and 'File Updated'. For ShareFile, actions include 'Upload File', 'Create Folder', and more. These allow for flexible customization of workflows between both platforms.

Is there a way to sync specific folders between Dropbox and ShareFile?

Yes, by setting up specific folder paths in your Zap configuration, you can ensure only selected folders are synced between Dropbox and ShareFile. Use triggers like 'New File in Folder' in both directions as needed.

Will changes made in ShareFile reflect back into Dropbox automatically?

You need to create separate Zaps for synchronizing changes from ShareFile back into Dropbox. Set an appropriate trigger in ShareFile like 'Upload Completed' and pair it with a corresponding action in Dropbox such as 'Upload File'.

How frequently do these integrations run?

The frequency of Zap runs depends on your subscription plan. Our platform handles checks and runs every 5 minutes on higher plans or every 15 minutes on basic plans for detecting new triggers.

Can I control what types of files are transferred between the services?
