Dropbox¶
Connects your Dropbox account to Salt’s Carbon data layer. This node delegates to the Carbon integration for Dropbox to authenticate and surface your Dropbox files for selection and downstream use.

Usage¶
Use this node when you want to bring content from Dropbox into your workflow via Carbon. Typically, you add this connector, authenticate/authorize Dropbox through the Carbon connection UI, select folders/files to include, and then pass the connected content to downstream nodes that consume Carbon-managed data.
Inputs¶
| Field | Required | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Not specified | False | Not specified | Inputs are defined by the base Carbon data node. They generally relate to Carbon connection/configuration and file selection. | Not specified |
Outputs¶
| Field | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Not specified | Not specified | Outputs are defined by the base Carbon data node and typically represent selected/linked content references from Dropbox managed by Carbon. | Not specified |
Important Notes¶
- This node is a typed connector for the Dropbox integration within Carbon; its behavior (inputs/outputs) is inherited from the base Carbon data node.
- You must have appropriate Dropbox access and complete the Carbon connection flow to see and select files.
- Display name appears as "Dropbox" in the node palette.
Troubleshooting¶
- If you cannot see Dropbox content, ensure you have completed the Carbon connection and granted the required Dropbox permissions.
- If authentication fails or expires, re-open the connection dialog and re-authorize Dropbox.
- If selected files are not appearing downstream, verify the downstream node expects Carbon-managed content and that the selection is saved/applied in the connection UI.
