Receiving images from others
I have a lot of content creators. I would like for them to send photos/videos to me. I understand the dropbox request. Here is my issue: When I receive an image I need to do a few things. Any automation will help. 1. The image has to abide by our content creation guidelines. This will need to be a manual review. In addition to resolution, file type.... I need to look at the picture to see if the content is correct. All pics will start their life in a common folder ** For Review ** 2. Issue 1: if the image does not meet the guidelines, I need to reject it and notify the creator. I would like to simplify this as I will be getting a lot of pictures and flipping back and forth to email does not scale. 3. Issue 2: if the image is approved, I need to easily capture this so that the creator can get credit for the image. I would also like to notify the creator that their image was accepted. 4. Issue 3: is there a way to simplify the tagging process? Each image may have several tags that will allow me to search and find the image a variety of ways. 5. Finally I need to send the image to the correct folder for safe keeping. My thoughts on folder structure is ** creator name>year>month **. Is there an automated way to do this after approval? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Automation with Dropbox Sign
I would like the ability to automate movement of signed documents to different folders. Example: after someone signs a contract, that file along with any other file chosen automatically moves to a different folder (for me it would be movement from leads to active project folders).
Why does automation only convert to 128kbps MP3s?
I'm trialling automation to convert a bunch of WAV files into MP3s, however it looks like they are being converted to 128kbps MP3s (quite a low bitrate) and there doesn't seem to be an option to change it to a higher bitrate. Ideally I need them converted to 320kbps files. Does anyone have any workarounds?
Automated Folders Do Not Work
I have tried contacting support and they don't do anything to help. I have a folder full of files that I set up to be automatically sorted. It sorts 13 files and stops. I then have to delete and redo the automation. I don't have time to redo the automation every few minutes.
Is it possible to create Automated Folder Templates?
Hey all, I use the dropbox desktop app much more than the web-based version, but have learned recently of the naming convention automation on the web-based version. Since my business deals in addresses, the naming convention I personally use it to add the address to each file that corresponds to that project. Here's how it works currently: - Template Folder with templates of all documents I use - When a new project begins, I copy the template folder and rename the parent folder as well as all of the documents in it according to this naming convention: "Filename [Address]". For example, "Waste Hauler Form [5313 Webster]". So far I can only get the automation to work by logging into the web-based dropbox, creating a new folder, adding the automation, and adding files. Updating the parent folder does not prompt a renaming of all the files located within it unless I go into the naming conventions and hit "save" again. This isn't a great workaround. Additionally, duplicating a folder does not carry the automation over to the new folder. Ideally, I can create one automated template folder to duplicate. Once duplicated, I can rename it and have all of the files within it renamed automatically. Best case is that I can do all of this from the desktop app. Anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve this?
Automate file name change to specific name
Is there a way to automate the name change of a file placed in a folder to a specific file name and remove the original name? For example an image is moved to a folder called "image1.jpg" and as soon as its moved into a folder its renamed to "chapter1a.jpg" I know through automations how to add thechapter1a but not to remove the original file name so it comes out aschapter1aimage1.jpg Any ideas on how to do this. - I assume its an easy fix??
