Dropbox
Dropbox Business or personal, connected by sign-in. Caryvane stores the refresh token and uploads in chunked sessions, so large files go up reliably.
What you need #
- The Dropbox account — sign-in happens in the browser.
Add it as a storage target #
- Storage → Add → Dropbox → Connect Dropbox Account.
- Allow in the tab that opens.
- Test.
Test on the target's row proves the credentials; a target that fails shows the provider's own message until it is fixed. From then on it can be a job's destination, a cloud-to-cloud source, a cloud drive, or an archive.

Things to know #
Dropbox keeps its own version history (30 days, longer on some plans) independently of Caryvane's; the console shows only Caryvane's.
Listings are slow on very large folders; a drive mounted on Dropbox feels it most on first open of a big directory.
