The Proposify Dropbox Automation allows you to automatically save PDFs of Won documents to a desired folder in Dropbox. 

This automation is part of Proposify's new Automations that are replacing our existing Legacy Integrations. During this early phase, all Automations will be available to all current plans (accounts on legacy plans will need to select one of our current plans to gain access).

This automation is in beta. You are welcome to leave feedback here: https://forms.gle/KGmRVdKEhrePxXhE8

Setup

As an Admin in the Proposify account, or a user with permission to access Integrations, navigate to “Integrations” → “Automations” → “Dropbox (Beta)”

Click “Configure” to connect an instance. You can optionally rename the instance or move on to connecting by clicking “Next”.

 

Connect Proposify and then enter the Dropbox app credentials.

Scroll down to the final step of choosing the Dropbox folder. You can use an existing folder or add a path to create a new one. Make sure there is a slack / at the start and at the end of the path. Proposal Software Proposify 2024-10-08 at 7.18.36 AM.jpg
