Snappic’s Dropbox integration allows Enterprise users to automatically upload event content—including images and videos—directly to a connected Dropbox folder. This feature is ideal for backing up media in real time, accessing files for quick edits, or delivering assets to clients without delay. Once configured, uploads happen instantly from the Snappic app to Dropbox, as long as the device has a stable internet connection. This article will guide you through enabling the Dropbox feature and linking your account to your event.
