Discuss Dropbox Developer & API
Good afternoon!
My native language is not English, but I think you will understand me.
The situation is as follows:
I have a working PC. On it is installed Dropbox with a subscription. One of the folders that is in Dopbox is shared through the work network. The other people put their projects in it.
Is it possible to implement such a function in an iOS app?
When any file is added to this shared folder, a notification is sent to the phone, for example: In "folder 1" added file: "file.extension".
Thus, if I turned on the "notification to add files" on the folders I need, I start getting notifications on my phone that a file has been added to the folders.
I hope they heard me 😃
Dropbox does offer an API you can use for listing, uploading, downloading, and monitoring files, among other operations. You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs here:
