Mobile Message™ Integration with Dropbox

Dropbox SMS Integration

Yes - Mobile Message does integrate with Dropbox!

Your team uses Dropbox to store contracts, documents, and communication records. When a new file arrives from a client or an existing file gets updated, your project manager needs to know immediately so she can review and assign next steps. Without an automatic alert, files sit unnoticed for hours. By pairing Dropbox with Mobile Message via Zapier, you can text your team when a file is updated in a watched folder, and you can also create a text file record each time a customer texts you. The trigger for updated files sends an SMS to your project manager or team, so everyone stays in sync. When someone replies via SMS, Dropbox logs the message, building a transcript you can reference later. You can monitor different folders and route alerts to different people depending on where the file lands. The result is faster file review and a full record of customer communications.
