Hello,

Unfortunately, you can't do this from JotForm.  If you wish to transfer files to dropbox, an alternative solution is download the files and paste your files to your dropbox folder in your computer.  This way it will sync your files to your dropbox account.  This has to be done manually also and we apologize for this inconvenience.

Hope this helps.

so the dropbox only works with submissions I will get going forward?

Yes, it will only send submissions you get after the integration. It is not possible to send your existing flles there.

I tried something but it did not work as I thought. So yes, there's no way yet to transfer to dropbox your past submissions. 

bummer. thanks for trying.

What did you try liyam?

One possible solution I can think of is to create a submissions listing page using Reports -> HTML Table Listing feature, and then gave that URL to an offline browser. It should download all images on it. Then you can copy the files to your dropbox folder.  

By the way, we are just listed on Dropbox App Directory. Feel free to post a review about your experience:

I tried editing the submission and adding new uploads in it but after saving the edit, it went to add a new entry.  It was unnoticed until i refreshed the submissions page and saw another submission identical to the 1st, except the date/time of the submission was different.

I see. No, that will not work. It can only send new uploads. When you edit an existing submission, if there is a new file, it will upload the new file to Dropbox. However, it will not send existing files to Dropbox. Good try though.  :)
