Overview of Dropbox#
The Dropbox API on Pipedream enables you to automate file and folder operations, streamlining workflows that involve storing, syncing, and sharing content. With this API, you can programmatically manage files, set up event-driven triggers based on changes within Dropbox, and leverage Pipedream's capabilities to connect with hundreds of other apps for extended automation scenarios. It's ideal for building custom file management solutions, archiving systems, or collaborative content workflows without writing extensive code.
Connect Dropbox#
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform" export default defineComponent({ props: { dropbox: { type: "app", app: "dropbox", } }, async run({steps, $}) { const data = { "account_id": `${this.dropbox.$auth.oauth_uid}`, } return await axios($, { method: "post", url: `https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/users/get_account`, headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${this.dropbox.$auth.oauth_access_token}`, "Content-Type": `application/json`, }, data, }) }, }) Overview of Node#
Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores
This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.
Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:
