## What Volty does with Dropbox

Dropbox is where many creative teams keep their project files and deliverables. Volty connects to Dropbox with one sign-in. During a conversation it can search the folders that sign-in can see, so it tells a client whether their file has been uploaded, and when sharing is turned on it can propose a share link for a colleague to approve.

- Is my file ready · Volty checks the client folder before it answers.
- Answers from your documents · Volty reads the policies and price lists kept in Dropbox.
- Share links with approval · A share link can wait for a colleague to approve it.
- Changes start Off · Sharing and uploading are Off until an admin turns them on.

## As an automation

Describe it to Volty in a sentence; it drafts the automation and an admin turns it on.

File ready to client

- When · A client asks · Is my file ready?
- Step 1 · Volty checks the folder · The latest upload
- Step 2 · Creates a share link · Approved by a colleague
- Step 3 · Sends it · In the same chat

Clients hear when their cut is ready.

## How Volty connects to Dropbox

An admin signs in to Dropbox from the Sources page and picks the tools Volty may use.

- 01 · Sign in to Dropbox · With the account whose folders Volty should read.
- 02 · Turn on the reads · Searching and reading files.
- 03 · Allow sharing, optionally · Share links start Off, and can wait for approval.

### The tools Volty gets

Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

- Search files · Reads
- Read a file · Reads
- List a folder · Reads
- Create a share link · Changes

Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes Dropbox starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.

## Common questions

### Can Volty change records in Dropbox?

Only when an admin allows it. Every tool has its own switch: tools that only read can be turned on, and tools that change a record start Off. A tool that is on can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague to approve it.

### How much does it cost to connect Dropbox with Volty?
