# Dropbox

> Connect your AI agent to a user's Dropbox account to automatically organize files into folders and manage shared links.

Connect your AI agent to a user's Dropbox account to automatically organize files into folders, create and manage shared links, and initiate file requests.

## Connect Dropbox to Auth0

**1. Dropbox setup**

1. Visit the [Dropbox Developer account](https://www.dropbox.com/developers) page and sign up.
2. Create a new app in the [Dropbox App Console](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps).
3. When creating the app, select **Scoped access**.
4. Select the type of access you need.
5. Give your app a unique name.
6. Select **Create app**.
7. Select the **Show App Secret** link to reveal the app secret.
8. Copy the **App Key** and **App Secret**.
9. Configure OAuth redirect URI:

   * Redirect URI: `https://YOUR_AUTH0_DOMAIN/login/callback`

   You can find the **Auth0 domain** in the [Auth0 Dashboard](https://manage.auth0.com/).

   You can find this under **Applications > \[Your Application] > Settings > Basic Information > Domain**.

   If you are using the [custom domains](https://auth0.com/docs/customize/custom-domains.md) feature, your Auth0 domain is the custom domain. You can find this under **Branding > Custom Domains**.
10. Select **Add** to save the redirect URI.
11. Configure the permissions your app needs.
12. Select **Save changes**.

To learn more about setting up Dropbox, read the [Developer guide for Dropbox documentation](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation).

**2. Auth0 setup**

<ol>
  <li>In the [Auth0 Dashboard](https://manage.auth0.com), go to
  **Authentication > Social**.</li>
  <li>Select **Create Connection**, then choose **Dropbox**.</li>
  <li>Select **Continue**.</li>

  <li>
    In **General**:

    <ol type="A">
      <li>Enter the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from
      your Dropbox OAuth app.</li>

      <li>
        Under **Attributes**, select the scope(s) required for your
        application. These determine what permissions your application can
        request from Dropbox, whether for authentication (such as
        accessing basic profile details) or for API access (such as
        connecting to the provider's APIs).

        For a Dropbox and Google social
        connection, you must select **Offline Access** in the Auth0 Dashboard, enabling
        the client application to obtain an Auth0 refresh token.
      </li>

      <li>Under **Attributes**, enable **Offline Access** for the connection.
      This is required by Auth0 to obtain a refresh token from Dropbox.</li>
    </ol>
  </li>

  <li>In **Purpose**, toggle on **Connected Accounts for Token Vault**. This lets the
  connection retrieve and securely store access tokens for external
  APIs. Learn more in
  [Connected Accounts for Token Vault](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/call-apis-on-users-behalf/token-vault/connected-accounts-for-token-vault.md).</li>
  <li>Select **Create**.</li>

  <li>
    After creation, you are redirected to the **Applications** page.
    Select the application(s) to enable this connection for.

    In a new Auth0 tenant, you can select the **Default App**.
  </li>

  <li>Once you have created your Dropbox social connection, [test your connection](https://auth0.com/docs/authenticate/identity-providers/test-connections.md) to ensure the setup is working correctly before using it in your application.</li>
</ol>

This guide walks you through setting up the **Dropbox** connection in Auth0.
For an end-to-end example that shows how to set up your app to call third-party APIs on the user's behalf
using a connection like this, read the
[Call third-party APIs on user's behalf quickstart](https://auth0.com/ai/docs/get-started/call-third-party-apis-on-users-behalf.md).

## Token Vault configuration example

To configure the Token Vault for your Dropbox connection, you can use the following code snippet in your application:

**JavaScript**

**Python**

## Next steps

* To learn how to configure applications to access Token Vault, read [Configure Token Vault](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/call-apis-on-users-behalf/token-vault/configure-token-vault.md).
* If your application uses [Organizations](https://auth0.com/docs/manage-users/organizations.md), authenticate the user with the target organization before initiating the Connected Accounts flow. Connected accounts remain linked to the individual user profile.
* To learn how to get an access token to make a tool call, complete the [Call third-party APIs on user's behalf Quickstart](https://auth0.com/ai/docs/get-started/call-third-party-apis-on-users-behalf.md).
