Connect AVCodex and the agent searches, browses, organizes, and shares straight from the chat. * * * Connect Dropbox to your AVCodex agent so it can browse folders, search for files, get metadata, create folders, generate sharing links, and move files through natural conversation. ## [What the AI Can Do# ](#what-the-ai-can-do) Once connected, your agent gains six tools: Tool Description **dropbox\_list\_files** List files and folders in a directory (use empty path for root) **dropbox\_search** Search for files and folders by name or content **dropbox\_get\_file\_metadata** Get detailed metadata for a specific file or folder **dropbox\_create\_folder** Create a new folder at a specified path **dropbox\_get\_sharing\_link** Create or retrieve a shared link for a file **dropbox\_move\_file** Move or rename a file or folder ### [Search Options# ](#search-options) The search tool supports filtering by file category: - Documents, spreadsheets, presentations (AS-builts, BOMs, design submittals) - Images, audio, video (rack photos, room walkthroughs) - Folders ## [Connecting Dropbox# ](#connecting-dropbox) **1.** **Open the Integrations tab** In your agent's builder, navigate to the **Build** section and select the **Integrations** tab. Find **Dropbox** in the list of available integrations. **2.** **Click Connect** Click the **Connect** button next to Dropbox. You will be redirected to Dropbox's authorization page. **3.** **Authorize access** Sign in with your Dropbox account and approve the requested permissions. **4.** **Test it out** Once connected, open the chat preview and try: - "List the files in my Dropbox root" - "Search for the Acme HQ AS-built" - "Create a shared link for the Crestron spec sheet" ## [How It Works# ](#how-it-works) ### [File Browsing# ](#file-browsing) The agent navigates Dropbox using folder paths. Ask it to browse a specific directory or start from the root: - "What's in my Dropbox?" lists the root directory - "Show me the files in /Projects/Acme-HQ-2026" browses a specific project folder - Recursive listing is supported for deep folder exploration ### [Sharing Links# ](#sharing-links) The agent can create or retrieve shared links for any file: - If a shared link already exists, it returns the existing one - If not, it creates a new public link - Useful for sending a manufacturer spec sheet to a dealer rep, or an AS-built to a client, mid-conversation ### [File Organization# ](#file-organization) The agent can reorganize your Dropbox: - "Create a new folder called 'Closeout' in /Projects/Acme-HQ-2026" - "Move the commissioning checklist to the Closeout folder" - "Rename the BOM file to 'BOM-AS-Built-Final.xlsx'" ### [Metadata# ](#metadata) Each file and folder includes: - Name and path - File size - Last modified date - File type (file or folder) ## [Example Use Cases# ](#example-use-cases) - **File lookup**: "Find the AS-built for the Acme HQ courthouse refresh" - **Project organization**: "Create a new project folder for the Riverside Hospital expansion and move all related design files into it" - **Quick sharing**: "Get me a sharing link for the Q-SYS Designer file so I can send it to the on-site programmer" - **Recent activity**: "What files were recently modified in the Acme HQ Documents folder?" - **Cleanup**: "Search for all old Crestron submittal drafts and list them so I can archive them" ## [Billing# ](#billing) Dropbox tool calls use your standard LLM token billing. There is no separate per-call fee. \*AVCodex · Your AV expertise. Amplified by AI.\* Was this helpful?
