Send incoming files to Dropbox from a webhook
When another system sends a file and destination details to Notis, ask it to upload the document into the Dropbox location you specify.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Upload File
Uploads a file to a specified path in the user's dropbox, with options for handling existing files.
Why this helps
Files arriving through custom processes can end up stranded until someone downloads and uploads them manually.
- Route a supplied file into Dropbox from an HTTP request.
- Reduce manual transfers between systems.
- Use a destination path that matches your filing process.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Dropbox once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, describe the file input, destination Dropbox path, and how to handle an existing file.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by sending one real example file request and verify the uploaded item.
Questions about this workflow
What must the webhook provide?
The request must include or make available the file input and any details Notis needs to determine the Dropbox destination.
Can the workflow handle an existing file at the path?
Specify your preferred handling in the instruction and verify it with a test example.
