Agenty’s Dropbox integration allows you to upload your agent result file to your Dropbox account automatically when an agent job has been completed in your Agenty account.
Dropbox is a secure file sharing and storage service available free for basic usage (2gb of space) and then pro, business or enterprise subscription with high storage capacity and other features to store and share files on cloud securely.
Prerequisites
- Good understanding about Agenty web scraping tool to scrape data.
- Agenty professional or higher plan to get access to the DropBox plugin.
DropBox Connector
- Login to your Agenty account
- Go to the Connection tab
- Add New Connection
- Select DropBox as provider from dropdown
- Give it name
- Click on Connect to Dropbox
Configure Dropbox Integration
- Go to the Integration page from the navigation menu on the left
- Click the Add button next to Dropbox integration
- Dropbox Integration Configuration page will open where we need to select our agent to attach this plugin.
-
You may also use the dynamic variable to generate Dropbox path, as I have used
{{job_id}}in Dropbox path in this example. The dynamic variable must be used in double-curly braces, see this dynamic variables reference guide to learn all the available variables and what they mean. -
Click on the Save button to attach the plugin to the selected agent.
Test the Integration
Now, we are done with configuring this integration. It’s time to test our integration to see the CSV result file uploaded in our Dropbox account with given folder structure and file name generated automatically:
- Start the agent where the integration was attached. For example, I attached this Dropbox integration to my web scraping agent “Dropbox example” in this case.
-
Wait for the job completion, as it may take few seconds to get the scraping job completed depending on the number of pages you have in your input.
