10 tools Official Updated Jun 28, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire cloud storage ecosystem with DropBox, the world's leading file hosting service. By connecting DropBox to your agent, you transform complex file management into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly list folder contents, audit file metadata, and search across your entire account without you ever touching a dashboard. Whether you are organizing team assets or managing personal backups, your agent acts as a real-time file operator, ensuring your data is always accessible and well-structured.

What you can do

  • Folder Auditing — List all files and folders in any directory and retrieve detailed metadata, including sizes and paths.
  • File Lifecycle — Create folders, move, copy, and delete items through natural language to keep your storage organized.
  • Powerful Search — Query your entire DropBox account for specific files or folders using real-time search indexing.
  • Sharing Governance — List existing shared links and autonomously create new ones to facilitate collaboration.
  • Account Auditing — Quickly retrieve account details and usage info to maintain strict organizational control.

List the files in my root DropBox folder.

I've retrieved your root directory. You have 10 items, including folders like 'Photos' and 'Documents', and 3 files. Which directory would you like to explore next?

Search for a file named 'Project Specs'.

I've found 2 matches for 'Project Specs'. One is in '/Work/2024/' and another in '/Archive/'. Would you like the full metadata for either of them?
