Hi all,

 

Title says it all. Looking to automate Gmail attachments saving directly to Shared Dropbox file.

 

Any advice? The shared file does not show up on the Dropbox file list in Zapier.

 

Thanks in advance,

Jack

Hey @jd2022 sorry for the trouble here! I am wondering: is this the issue you’re running into?

If so, let us know and we can add you to that feature request. If not can you clarify for us if you’re trying to save to a folder or a file? I was a tad confused by some parts of your message. Let us know!

@EJR I too am having this issue. My Zap was working fine, then Dropbox recently initiated an “upgrade” to our business account which migrated our team’s shared files into a different structure. Now, our team’s folders can’t have new folders created through our Zaps.

 

Could you please add me to the list as well? Unfortunately because this is a critical bit of functionality to our daily workflows we are having to find alternative services. I’d like to stick with Zapier if we can.
