1.Detect new file in folder
Integrate Dropbox and cloud storage triggers to detect new uploads and pass file contents and metadata to your backup flow.
Create backup copies of camera uploads to shared drive
Automatically detect new file in folder uploads across Dropbox and Google Drive shared folders. Automatically create backup copies in your shared drive when new uploads arrive, camera files appear, or media metadata comes in—so you can archive files, keep editors supplied, and maintain reporting backups without manual backups.
How this automation protects your media archive
When new camera uploads land in your configured Dropbox folder, delays can leave editors waiting and reports missing archived media. This automation duplicates uploads into a shared Google Drive folder and handles filename conflicts—so your team can reuse backups without manual transfers.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier hilft uns, weit über 50% mehr Deals abzuschließen, als wir es ohne Zapier tun würden. Es ist ein Schlüsselelement unserer Gesamtstrategie und somit auch unseres Verkaufsarguments.
