Dropbox + ChatGPT

Manage Dropbox (file storage: list, download, upload, move, copy, delete, search, share, metadata) from any AI agent. 10 tools, OAuth2 token.

前提条件

完整的设置说明已内置在连接器中 (在 store 中选择连接器时可见)。所需环境变量:

DROPBOX_CLIENT_ID, DROPBOX_CLIENT_SECRET, DROPBOX_REFRESH_TOKEN

步骤 1 — 获取凭证

This connector wraps the Dropbox API v2 (api.dropboxapi.com).

Setup — OAuth2:

  1. Register at https://www.dropbox.com/developers/appsCreate app → 'Scoped access' → 'App folder' or 'Full Dropbox' depending on need.
  2. Add the scopes you need (files.metadata.read, files.content.read, files.content.write, sharing.write, ...).
  3. Generate a Refresh token via OAuth flow with token_access_type=offline.
  4. Set DROPBOX_CLIENT_ID, DROPBOX_CLIENT_SECRET, DROPBOX_REFRESH_TOKEN.

Authentication: OAuth2 refresh handled by engine. Sends Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

步骤 2 — 安装 adapter

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

步骤 3 — 在 ChatGPT 中添加连接器

ChatGPT 通过 Connectors 功能 (Plus / Pro / Team / Enterprise 套餐) 支持 MCP 服务器。免费套餐不支持自定义连接器。

  1. 打开 ChatGPT → Settings → Connectors (或点击 composer 中的 🔧 图标 → Manage connectors)。
  2. 点击 "Add custom connector"
  3. 填入:
    • Name: Dropbox
    • MCP server URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp
    • Authentication: Bearer token → 粘贴 MCP API key
  4. 点击 Connect
