The Dropbox API allows developers to work with files in Dropbox, including advanced functionality like full-text search, thumbnails, and sharing. The Dropbox API explorer<\/a> is the easiest way to get started making API calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1: Create a Dropbox App<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To get started with integrating Dropbox as a source type, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Open the Dropbox Developer App Console.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Create a new app and choose the type of access you need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Note the App Key and App Secret from the Settings tab. These will be your Dropbox credentials.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    Step 2: Set the Redirect URI<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In the Dropbox Developer App Console, set the Redirect URI to: https:\/\/{{url}}\/multisource\/dropbox\/callback\/multisource\/dropbox\/callback<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Screenshot-5\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    In the Permissions tab, provide the necessary permissions to access Dropbox. Click “Submit” to apply the changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    here there is a need for the scope permission of  ” file. read. content”  for allowing to read the file from Dropbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \"Screenshot-6\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Step 4: Configure Multi Source Import Type Module<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In the Akeneo Multi Source Import Type<\/a> module, create a credential, enter the App Key and App Secret, and click “Authenticate Dropbox” to give access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Screenshot-7\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    After creating the credentials, create the import job and import the csv-stranded file to Akeneo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    After saving and running the job, the strandred.csv file is successfully imported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
