8 years agoGreat to hear from you, Zil! Sounds like you've found a setup that works for you. You mention Zapier - do you have any Zaps with Dropbox that you recommend?

It is very specific to each businesses workflow and which software they use. I would recommend everyone map out their workflow and make a list of all of their software they use and then from there see how things can interact. Having everything mapped out you can then go to Zapier or to the vendors directly and say I have these softwares, what can you help me automate? The ultimate goal is to create one information environment where everything is connected and there is no duplication of effort.

Just going to jump in on this chat Zil! I really like your point about mapping out each individual workflow to see how things interact as a starting point for automation. Would really help to ensure nothing obvious is overlooked too!
Did you find this approach made a noticable difference for you?

I know this thread started over a year ago but I am having a similar issue finding an integration or zap that will help create nested folders. I figured out how to get the "main project" folder created through a zap but would like to trigger a nested folder set up once I rename the "main project" with our current naming convention. So the question is, did anyone figure this out yet? LOL!
