Written by Dan B

It's easy to start monitoring your team's usage of Dropbox using SubOps. To begin, make sure you've installed SubOps in Slack and that you're authorized to grant third-party access to your company's Dropbox account.

Step 1

To connect your Zoom account to SubOps, open Slack and go to the #subops-reports channel then type “/sub” and the send arrow.

Step 2

This will generate a new SubOps subscription usage report. Press the button at the bottom to "Add more services".

Step 3

This will open a modal with several services you can monitor using SubOps. Press the button for "Dropbox".

Step 4

This will launch a web browser. If you see this warning, don't be alarmed. This is a standard Dropbox alert for new applications. Click "Continue" to proceed with the installation.

Step 5

Select "Allow" to give SubOps read-only access to report on your weekly usage.

Step 6

After allowing SubOps to have access to monitor your Dropbox usage, you'll be taken to a web page which confirms that you've successfully connected your Dropbox account to SubOps.

Step 7

You can now return to Slack where you'll see a message confirming the addition of your Dropbox account. This will also initiate a new SubOps subscription usage report that will include your Dropbox usage.
