My client is starting to look at using a DropBox as a central file location.  My question is:

Can Monarch be programmed with COM Automation to reference a DropBox?

 

Any feedback regarding this would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks

    Monarch Classic cannot export directly to a DropBox, but there are two possibilities you can explore.

    DropBox does have a sync feature, so if you have the application installed somewhere where COM Auto can export the file to a sync folder, then DropBox could pick it up.

    The other option would be to use the DropBox api.  You would still have to export the file to a location, but as part of your code, you can import the DropBox api to pick it up and upload it to a DropBox.
