Dropbox

Connect Dropbox and Viro can search your Dropbox, read PDFs, Paper docs, and text files, and save a new document for you after you confirm. It never changes or deletes your existing files.

• Search your Dropbox
• Read PDFs, Dropbox Paper docs, and text files
• Summarize and answer questions about them
• Save a new Word document to your Dropbox

Viro can't:

• Read Word, Excel, or PowerPoint files from Dropbox
• Edit, rename, move, or delete files already in your Dropbox
• Read images

   Check that it's connected

   Back in Viro, Dropbox is listed under Yours.

Once it's connected, just ask in any chat. For example:

• "Find my lease in Dropbox and tell me when it ends."
• "Summarize the research PDF in my Papers folder."
• "What's in my packing list?"

Download it from Dropbox, then attach it to the chat with + > Add photos & files. See Files & Uploads.

Yes. Ask Viro to save what it wrote, for example "save this as a doc in Dropbox." It shows a card with the title and the document, and nothing is saved until you select Create doc. Select Edit first to change the title or the text. The new Word document is saved at the top level of your Dropbox. Viro never changes or replaces a file that's already there: if the name is taken, the new one gets a number.

If the card says This needs one more permission on your Dropbox connection, select Allow and approve the request. That happens once, the first time you make a change.

Files can be up to 10 MB. For very long documents, Viro reads roughly the first 60,000 characters. A document Viro saves can be up to 50,000 characters.
