Enable Emoji in file names.
I use emojiâs to help me find things quicker. I would like to add an emoji from the apple keyboard to the file folder name but when I click on rename and add the emoji it says âinvalid folder name...the folder name contains invalid charactersâ. Here is an example I wish to change âVehicles and DOTâ folder to say âđVehicle and DOTâStay organized and save time with new folder automation updates
Hey Dropbox Community! We are so excited to introduce new enhancements to the folder automation features to help you stay organized. Weâre introducing multiple step automations (up to five), including within subfolders. Now, you can configure multiple automations on selected folders and subfolders to automatically convert uploaded files to PDFs, rename files, add watermarks, and more. Get started by selecting â+Createâ under the search bar, then select âFolder,â and finally select âAutomated folder.â Tell us about your experience with Dropbox's Folder Automation Features in the comments below! Or comment down below any features you'd love to see to help you stay organized. â
How can I turn off automations on a folder?
I set up my new Folder with automated conversion to MP4 because I thought I would need that format. However, I do not. I have been unable to figure out how to turn it off for that Folder. on my PC--I set it up on my iPhone originally. When I go to Settings and Automations on the right side of my PC and Delete the conversion step, I get the attached screen, which does not allow me to Save the change. So I must be doing something wrong.
Search and sort through images with facial recognition
Iâm in my final year of high school and my cohort has started a Dropbox to compile everyoneâs photos for the whole year. I think it would be really cool to be able to say find all the photos of me, or the photo of me and Person A. Similar of like how you can search by people on the Apple photos app. We have hundreds of photos and sorting through them is tedious. I think this could be a really cool idea.
Receiving images from others
I have a lot of content creators. I would like for them to send photos/videos to me. I understand the dropbox request. Here is my issue: When I receive an image I need to do a few things. Any automation will help. 1. The image has to abide by our content creation guidelines. This will need to be a manual review. In addition to resolution, file type.... I need to look at the picture to see if the content is correct. All pics will start their life in a common folder ** For Review ** 2. Issue 1: if the image does not meet the guidelines, I need to reject it and notify the creator. I would like to simplify this as I will be getting a lot of pictures and flipping back and forth to email does not scale. 3. Issue 2: if the image is approved, I need to easily capture this so that the creator can get credit for the image. I would also like to notify the creator that their image was accepted. 4. Issue 3: is there a way to simplify the tagging process? Each image may have several tags that will allow me to search and find the image a variety of ways. 5. Finally I need to send the image to the correct folder for safe keeping. My thoughts on folder structure is ** creator name>year>month **. Is there an automated way to do this after approval? Any help is greatly appreciated.
