Even if you are using Dropbox and Slack together, have you ever felt the need to make file sharing and notifications more efficient? Many people find manual upload confirmations and notifications to Slack burdensome.
In this article, we will introduce a method to automate file management and notifications by integrating Dropbox and Slack. With the no-code tool Yoom, you can easily set it up without programming knowledge, significantly improving work efficiency. This helps prevent missed file checks and enables smoother team operations.
If you are thinking, "I want to make better use of Dropbox and Slack" or "I want to reduce manual work and streamline operations," please read to the end!
By using Yoom, you can easily integrate Dropbox and Slack without any coding.
Yoom provides templates for integrating Dropbox and Slack, so you can achieve integration immediately just by registering, even without API knowledge.
By integrating the APIs of Dropbox and Slack, you can automatically link Dropbox data to Slack!
For example, you can automatically perform data integration like the following without human intervention.
Every time a new file is added to Dropbox, a notification is sent to Slack, allowing all team members to quickly grasp the latest information.
This eliminates the time lag in information sharing, strengthens team collaboration, and improves work efficiency.
This streamlines the process of checking and sharing PDF content, facilitating smooth information sharing across the team.
As a result, it reduces manual work and allows for more efficient use of time.
With this flow, you can automatically transcribe audio data the moment it is uploaded!
It's recommended for teams that are taking time to share the content of audio data.
Now, let's create a flow that integrates Dropbox and Slack!
We'll use Yoom to proceed with the integration of Dropbox and Slack without any coding, so if you don't have a Yoom account yet, please create one using this registration form.
[What is Yoom]
This time, we will create a flow bot that "notifies Slack when a file is uploaded to Dropbox"!
The creation process is broadly divided into the following steps.
1. Please register Dropbox and Slack as My Apps to connect them to Yoom. By completing the My App registration in advance, you can smoothly proceed with the automation settings.
First, let's register Dropbox as My App.
Click "My Apps" → "New Connection" on the left side of the Yoom screen.
Find Dropbox from the app list or use the search function to search for it.
2. Select Dropbox from the new connection list in My Apps and log in.
3. Next, register Slack as My App. Click Slack from the new connection list in Yoom and sign in, just like in (1).
The following screen will be displayed, so select the channel you want to link with Dropbox from the dropdown and press "Allow".
Once each is registered in Yoom's My Apps, the integration is complete!
1. To set up automation, click "Try it" on the banner below.
2. Read the screen display below and click "OK".
1. Let's start setting up the flow! First, click the red frame below.
2. The following screen will be displayed, so check the settings and press "Next".
3. Set the trigger activation interval from the dropdown according to your needs.
※ The shortest activation interval varies depending on your plan. For more details, click here.
4. Set the path and file name of the target folder by referring to the notes outside the frame.
5. After inputting, upload the file to Dropbox and then click "Test" → "Test Successful" → "Save"!

By utilizing output, the content reflecting Dropbox information changes with each flow activation.
Standard text can be set by entering it directly.
This time, we created it as follows, but try setting the content according to your business needs!
5. After inputting, click "Test" → "Test Successful" → "Save"!
Finally, click "Set Trigger to ON" to complete the automation setup.
Check whether the flow bot is starting correctly.

This time, we introduced a method to link data from Dropbox to Slack, but if you want to implement data linkage from Slack to Dropbox, please also use the template below!
By introducing this flow, files shared on Slack can be automatically uploaded to a specified folder in Dropbox.
You can reduce the hassle of manually saving files, and it is also possible to automatically send notifications on Slack after the upload to Dropbox is complete.
In addition to integrating Dropbox and Slack, you can automate various tasks using these tools. Enhance team productivity by streamlining file sharing and automating notifications. Below are some specific automation examples for you to try!
You can create flows by integrating with apps other than the ones introduced, or use AI to add file data to Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel.
From smooth data sharing to preventing data management oversights, you can achieve this by utilizing templates.
Not only can you receive notifications of the content of received emails, but you can also automatically register business card information posted on Slack and accumulate inquiry details as data.
For those who frequently communicate on Slack, utilizing the following flow will significantly reduce oversights.
By leveraging the integration of Dropbox and Slack, you can significantly reduce the hassle of file management and notifications, thereby enhancing work efficiency. By utilizing templates, you are sure to find a flow that suits you perfectly! However, some might feel that "the setup seems difficult..." But don't worry.
With Yoom, you can easily achieve automation without any programming knowledge.
Registration is free, and you can start right away. Why not register with Yoom and make more convenient use of Dropbox and Slack?
