QuantaStor's Cloud Containers feature enables one to setup a NAS Gateway to object storage like AWS and other S3 compatible cloud storage buckets. With QuantaStor v4.7 this is extended to include Dropbox folder/directories just as if they were S3 buckets. Because of the way Dropbox works there are a couple of steps required to enable access to your Dropbox account.
Overview Configuration Steps
- Login to your Dropbox account: https://www.dropbox.com
- Navigate to the Dropbox developers page: https://www.dropbox.com/developers
- Create your app
- Get your app key, app secret, and generated access token
- Add provider credentials to the Dropbox provider within QuantaStor with your key, secret, and token
- Create a new Cloud Container which will automatically add a new Dropbox folder -or- Add a Cloud Container using an existing Dropbox folder
