Find Dropbox assets when tasks become ready

Surface supporting material at the moment execution begins.

Trigger

Task Status Updated

Triggers when a task's status changes. `changes[]` carries `StatusChange` entries only — ClickUp pre-filters server-side by event type. Lower traffic than subscribing to `CLICKUP_TASK_UPDATED` and pattern-matching `StatusChange`.

Action

Search File or Folder

Tool to search for files and folders in dropbox. use when you need to find an item by name or content, optionally within a specific path or with other filters, and paginate through results. example: search for 'report.docx' in the '/finance' folder.

Why this helps

Reference files are often discovered after work has already started.

  • Improve readiness
  • Reduce context switching
  • Speed execution
