Questions about this workflow
Does this replace the existing Dropbox copy?
Tell Notis to use a new timestamped path, or instruct it to overwrite a specific path when that is your policy.
What if the deck cannot be exported?
Notis reports the failure so you can retry after access or export issues are fixed.
