Dropbox integration: Can the folder that is created get a name derived from the form rather than just a number?

    I am hoping to use Jotform with the Dropbox addon but I need the folder that is created to get its name from the form such as a job number.

    Is this possible

    Yes, it is possible to use a value entered in the form as a folder name. You can do it in the Dropbox integration. Just click the "pencil/edit" icon and then choose the "Number" field (Job Number). After that, click the "Apply" button and finish the integration.

    I did a test submission on the form and entered "20" in the Number field.
