How to connect Dropbox to Polyfile

Polyfile integrates with Dropbox simply and securely using OAuth 2.0 Authentication. Here is how you can do it.

Polyfile never deletes, moves, or affects your files in Dropbox in any way. We request only "View" access to allow you organize links to the files, use AI features like translations and audio/video transcriptions, and download and preview files in Polyfile.

  1. Sign in to Polyfile and click the "+ Add a storage" button in the left bottom corner.

  2. Select Dropbox in the dialog and click the "Connect" button.

  3. You will be redirected to Dropbox sign in page. Complete authorization.

  4. Next, you will see "Before you connect this app..." warning. Click the "Continue" to proceed.

  5. Lastly, you will get a "Polyfile would like to" prompt that describes view access we're requesting. Click "Allow" to complete integration.

  6. It will take you back to Polyfile and the Dropbox storage will appear in the left sidebar. It can take a minute or two to sync. All done!

How to remove Dropbox integration

  1. In Polyfile: Find Dropbox integration you want to remove in the Storages list (left sidebar) and right-click on it.

  2. Click "Delete" button in the dropdown and confirm the operation in the popup.

  3. The integration will be removed completely including all credentials and active sessions, all related files and resources, and all the references to your Dropbox content in any Virtual Storages in Polyfile.
