Example use cases

Automated document archiving An agent monitors a project and automatically moves completed deliverables from a working folder to an archive folder using DROPBOX_MOVE_FILE_OR_FOLDER, keeping the workspace organized without manual effort. Client file collection An agent creates a file request via DROPBOX_CREATE_FILE_REQUEST with a deadline and shares the upload link with clients, allowing them to submit documents directly to a designated Dropbox folder. Content search and retrieval An agent uses DROPBOX_SEARCH_FILE_OR_FOLDER to locate specific reports or documents by name or content, then reads the file with DROPBOX_READ_FILE to extract information for summarization or analysis.
