    Asked on May 7, 2014 at 2:22 AM

    Hi, ive been running an upload form to my dropbox, it started working fine putting files into a folder on dropbox, then it changed and all files went into same folder. Now the files are being uploaded because i can grab them from the email link but i cant actually find them in the dropbbox. Also the limit of file has changed to 500k instead of what was 300mb. Can someone advise how i can start agian with a fresh form, ive tried doing this as when i first set it up but when i authenticate it with dropbox it doesnt recognise this. Im guessing i need to remove all authentication from dropbox before i can start again? any help much appreciated

    Hello dpiuk,

    Upon checking your form, I found that it is currently not integrated with dropbox. Please check the screenshot below:

    Have you removed the integration already? That is the reason I am unable to investigate this issue further.

    I would suggest you to re-integrate your form with dropbox and ensure that you customize the folder path where you want the upload to be copied. The following guide should help you:  https://www.jotform.com/help/77-Upload-to-Dropbox-with-JotForm

    Hope this helps.

    Do get back to us if the issue persists.

    Thank you!

    Hello Paul,

    I am not sure if I have understood the problem.

    Your form is still not integrated with dropbox. Are you getting any error when you try to integrate your form with dropbox? I did try to integrate your form with my own dropbox account and I was able to integrate successfully. Please check the screenshot below:

    I have now removed the integration I did. I would suggest you to please try to integrate your form with dropbox and get back to us if there is any problem. If you see any error, please share a screenshot with us. The following guide should help you upload image in forum post:  https://www.jotform.com/answers/277033

    We will wait for your response.

    Thank you!

    It seems to me that based on your response about this issue you are mostly having an issue " authenticating and connecting " your JotForm Account with your Dropbox Account via our Integration. 

    I decided to look into this further by closing your form and testing it with my own Dropbox Account. I'm currently convinced that it is working properly. I am unable to replicate this issue so far.

    Here's what we're going to do about this though to help resolve it. I would like for you to attempt this one last time. I've now cleared your form cache to refresh the forms on your account so please remove the integration one more time followed by clearing your browser cache. Next log back in and attempt to connect it to Dropbox and see if it works this time on your end.

    If it's still not working on your side then I have two questions for you. One - Do you have your Dropbox 2-Step Authentification enabled? And Two - Have you tried this in another browser to see if it is the same result? We will await your response and then handle it from there.
