New Dropbox Video
Automatically trigger workflows when a new video is added to a selected Dropbox folder, enabling instant processing of uploaded content.
Functionality
The New Dropbox Video node monitors a specific Dropbox folder and triggers the workflow whenever a new video file is detected. To configure the node, users must first connect their Dropbox account, which enables access to their file system. Once connected, users can:
Select a folder to monitor for new uploads Refresh the connection if files or folders are not immediately visible
The trigger will only activate when new video files are added to the selected folder, making it ideal for automated ingestion pipelines from editors, content teams, or external tools uploading to Dropbox. If no folder is selected, the trigger remains inactive. Changing the folder updates the source of truth for future workflow runs.
Once triggered, the video file is passed downstream to editing nodes (e.g., clipping, subtitles, formatting) or export nodes for distribution.
