Questions about this workflow
Does Dropbox create the file from the incoming content?
The listed Upload File action uploads a file to a specified path. Ensure your webhook supplies usable file content and a destination path.
Can Notis invent missing content for the file?
You should supply the content you want saved. Notis can process returned data, but missing source details must be provided.
