Setting Up Dropbox Integration
Connect Dropbox to sync appraisal documents and photos.
A lot of appraisal teams already live in Dropbox. Inspection photos land there from the field, contractors share repair estimates through it, and assistants are used to its folder shortcuts on every device. Forcing those workflows into a different cloud after the fact creates exactly the friction you signed up for AwardLettr to avoid.
Connecting Dropbox means every report, invoice, and award letter AwardLettr generates lands in the same Dropbox tree your team already opens daily. You keep the file structure you trained your assistant on, the carrier you have shared a folder with for years still sees new files appear, and your photos and documents live side by side instead of in two separate clouds.
This is the right pick if your firm already uses Dropbox as its primary file system, or if you want photos and generated documents in the same place so a paralegal can build a packet without bouncing between apps.
The Dropbox integration lets you sync generated documents and photos between AwardLettr and your Dropbox account. This is useful if your team already uses Dropbox for file sharing.
Connecting Dropbox
Open Integration Settings
In AwardLettr, navigate to Settings then Integrations.
Find the Dropbox Card
Locate the Dropbox integration section.
Click Connect
Click "Connect Dropbox" to begin the authorization flow.
Authorize in Dropbox
A Dropbox authorization window will open. Sign in and grant AwardLettr permission to access your files.
Return and Configure
After authorizing, you will be redirected back to AwardLettr. Configure your folder preferences before saving.
Document Sync
Once connected, generated documents (reports, invoices, award letters) are automatically synced to your Dropbox. Documents are organized into appraisal folders using the same folder structure as Google Drive: root folder, then one subfolder per appraisal.
Photo Sync
If you store inspection photos in Dropbox, you can configure AwardLettr to pull photos from a designated Dropbox folder for an appraisal. This gives you an alternative to CompanyCam for photo documentation.
Choosing Between Dropbox and Google Drive
Disconnecting Dropbox
To disconnect, return to Settings then Integrations and click Disconnect on the Dropbox card. Your existing Dropbox files will remain intact.
