123FormBuilder and Dropbox Integration

Using the 123FormBuilder – Dropbox integration you can have the files uploaded by visitors through your form sent directly to your Dropbox account at form submission. Dropbox is a good backup solution. Follow the steps below to enable the integration.

1. Build a form that contains at least one File upload field.

2. Afterwards, go to Integrations, select Dropbox in the applications list, and click Connect.

3. Click Connect to Dropbox in the application box.

4. Next, provide your Dropbox login data and allow the application to access your account.

Now, when somebody uploads a file through your form and sends it, the file will arrive in your Dropbox account. Other than that, uploaded files will behave normally – they will be sent to you via email as download links and the links will also appear in the Results/Submissions section of your form.

  1. Hi. Are you able to program an update that allows you to manually change the upload path? This would be extremely helpful, rather than having to locate and move each file to its appropriate folder at a later time, especially when dealing with a lot of files. Thank you

    1. Hi,

      By default a folder with the form name is automatically created when integrating your form with Dropbox. The designated default folder cannot be changed, but files can be manually moved to another folder afterwards.

      Thanks.

For anything related to your 123FormBuilder account, don’t hesitate to contact our support specialists at support@123formbuilder.com
