Dropbox for file uploads
Is it possible to use dropbox as a standard file bucket for form file uploads, rather than just for backups? Don't need to access the assets again, its just a delivery system to the client.

Yes, I think that might work.
Ive set up as so but no files are arriving in the dropbox folder: runway.php:
buckets.php
form template:
Is the configuration working ok for backups?
Yep backups are working fine
Would it have anything to do with running it locally via MAMP? Backups are working fine locally but can't get anything to come through via the file field type. Slightly frustrating as this was one of the main reasons for updating to Runway as the client wanted file delivery direct to dropbox.
Have you checked your error log and so on? We'll need more information about what actually isn't working to be able to help.
Here is the error log on submission of the form, it seems the file save location is not set? There are some other errors in there with regards to my other post: https://forum.grabaperch.com/forum/06-11-2018-members-account-with-associated-file-uploads
What should go in the file upload path within the form options? Normally I would put the file path here but not sure what is required for dropbox?
Rachel does that error log help at all? Would like to get this working asap if possible.
I think you probably want to set it to something like:
That returns the following error:
along with:
The file path dropbox://hires is not writable by PHP.
Hmm, ok. Create this file:
Put this in it:
and then in your
config/apps.php
add this to the array:Awesome, thats sorted it thank you very much. Still getting that error message in the form settings but the files are arriving in dropbox.
Copy your
runtime.php
asadmin.php
and that might also fix the control panel warning.
