Dropbox

Integrate your application with the Dropbox API

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to Dropbox with Tenklo and see data flow in 2 minutes.

Create the integration

In Tenklo (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> Dropbox.

Authorize Dropbox

Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to Dropbox. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.

Call the Dropbox API

Let's make your first request to the Dropbox API. Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:

curl "https://api.tenklo.dev/proxy/2/files/list_folder" \
  -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
  -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
  -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"path": ""}'

Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.

✅ You're connected! Check the Logs tab in Tenklo to inspect requests.
