We’re happy to announce that it is now possible to connect your Jotform forms with your Dropbox account. You can access your uploaded files instantly on your computer or mobile phone.
We are big fans of Dropbox. It’s a great way to share your files among different computers and mobile devices. If you ever find yourself, e-mailing files to yourself, then Dropbox is the way to go.
One step further
What we did was to take it one step further and enable our dear JotFormers to receive files from anyone, with minimal effort. Now, with Jotform Dropbox Integration, you can receive submissions from your website, directly to your computer.
Meet John! He’ll be illustrating a few details you should know.
To integrate an existing form with a Dropbox folder, go to Submissions page for your form, click on Preferences icon, click on Dropbox Integration and then complete the Dropbox integration wizard.
We really wanted to reach out, thus decided to share what we have done with everyone. The result was this Create a Dropbox Form page which contains a sample form generator and an extremely simple integration wizard at the click of a button.
Help us spread the word with your “tweets” and “likes” so that none shall go through the horrors of constant e-mail traffic again!

This is a great feature folk. One comment is that configuring it (manage integration) is quite too well hidden!

Is it possible to make frop box folder name related to 2 fields ex: Unique Id + Name (1234566-MrFirstName)? that would give sense to the folder and keep it unique?

If you have multiple forms that you want from one user, can you send those forms to a single directory or will each form create its own directory on DB?

I was read a review about Jotform on Makeuseof.com and in that article, they(Makeuseof) told me, i can use Jotform to send any file to another Dropbox user who does not have Public Folder with you. But i tried and fail, Jotform just let you send a file to your Dropbox account and if someone want to see this file, they must have a Public Folder with you. :|.

I am trying to submit my form to Dropbox, but the link doesn't work for me. I tried the sample Dropbox form and it won't send either. Is there a problem with Jotform?

The limits in your jotform apply. You can delete the form submissions in your account to create more space.

Is there a file size limit for uploading files from Jotform to Dropbox?
March 22, 2011
Yes they are counted in your submission quota.

Does forms created with https://www.jotform.com/dropbox count towards monthly submission quota? or its free to create just a "Dropbox Upload Only Form"? Free submission I mean.

@ronaldcduke On the "Submissions" page, click the little icon below the "Delete" button that looks like a gear in the top right of the page. In the menu that appears, click "Send Uploads/Submissions to DropBox".

I click on a form I've already created, click on "submissions" but see no 'preferences' to click on. What am I missing?

I found out that it does automatically.. Great job!
March 18, 2011
how do you or can you upload a file or series of files and have it automatically send to Dropbox?
Great design

aandptranscript: Emailed to you yesterday to get more details on your browser.
kevinreynolds: On your Submissions page for that form, click on the Preferences icon on the right side and click on the Dropbox integration. It will open a wizard. You can change the field to use Submission ID on folder names. Submission ID is always a unique number.

Amazing Job

This is great - however - when saving the folder name from a field, when one or more submissions are sent - it will write over the previous dropbox document in that folder.
I set up an expenses form, and wanted a folder by persons name - all ok so far and works fine, yet it will over write any previous sends of that for with the same name.Perhap - naming the file with a date/time field would resolve this.
Otherwise - FANTASTIC POTENTIAL

I am trying to integrate my existing form with DropBox and I cannot click on the preferences under submissions, it states that there is an error on the page. Can you please help me? Thanks, aandptranscript

tony: Yes, since uploaded files will also be stored on Jotform, it will count against your limit. However, you can delete the submissions on Jotform site and you will still have files those files on your Dropbox and you will gain the space back from your Jotform uploads limit.

Does uploading to drop box count against the jotform upload limits?
