Dropbox Egress Connector

Dropbox Share Operations

Version: 17.07

Supported Since: 17.07

These connector operations can be used to preform entity sharing (obtaining sharable links) on Dropbox. The raw API results returned by Dropbox, containing any generated links, will be provided as either a Dropbox Java SDK object or a JSON string, in the message payload or within a scope variable, depending on the configuration of the parent egress connector.

These operations are compatible only with the Dropbox Egress Connector. Accordingly, they automatically become available when you have selected the Dropbox Connector dependency.
