# Connect Paige to Dropbox

Two working paths from Paige into Dropbox: the Dropbox desktop app syncing a folder that Paige's export writes into, or an automation on Zapier, Make, or Power Automate that uploads each finished document with a name built from its contents. Which to pick and the step-by-step guides.

**Every document Paige finishes can land in Dropbox as a searchable PDF, in a personal folder or a team folder, with no one uploading anything. Use the Dropbox desktop app and a folder, or an automation that also names each file from its own contents.**

Dropbox (Dropbox Business, Dropbox team folders) has no folder-watching import of its own, so Paige reaches it in one of two ways.

## What lands in Dropbox

|  | Synced-folder path | Automation path |
| --- | --- | --- |
| The searchable PDF | In the synced folder, with Paige's generated filename | In the folder you choose, named from Paige's fields (for example `INV-20441 – Acme Office Supply.pdf`) |
| Paige's data files (`.json`, `.xml`, `.csv`) | Land alongside the PDF | Not uploaded unless you want them |
| Where it runs | On a PC that stays on and signed in | In the cloud; nothing on-premises |
| Team folders | Yes — any team folder synced to the PC | Yes on Zapier and Make; Power Automate's Dropbox connector can't write to team folders |

Dropbox full-text search reads the PDF text, so documents are findable by their contents.

## Pick a path

| Path | Choose it when | Guide |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Synced folder** | You have a PC that stays on, you're fine with Paige's filenames, and you don't want another subscription | [Export Paige documents to a synced Dropbox folder](/paige/integrations/export-paige-documents-to-a-synced-dropbox-folder) |
| **Automation** (Zapier, Make, or Power Automate) | You want files named from their contents with nothing running on a PC | [Send Paige documents to Dropbox with an automation](/paige/integrations/send-paige-documents-to-dropbox-with-an-automation) |
