Cloud Storage | Dropbox
Sync Odoo attachments directly to Dropbox. A complete file management engine with multi-drive support, auto folder routing, a built-in File Explorer, a real-time Monitoring Dashboard, and a full Activity Log terminal.
OAuth 2.0 Authentication
Connect multiple Dropbox accounts securely using official OAuth 2.0 flow. Built-in connection test and revoke support.
Auto Attachment Sync
Automatically intercepts file uploads on 8 pre-configured Odoo models and routes them to Dropbox with a structured folder hierarchy.
Built-in File Explorer
Browse, upload, download, rename, move, share, and trash Dropbox files without leaving Odoo. Grid and table view with ZIP download.
Monitoring Dashboard
16 real-time analytics widgets covering KPIs, Dropbox fleet health, sync statistics, and user activity — with lazy-load non-blocking RPC architecture.
Activity Logs Terminal
A non-blocking audit terminal capturing every sync operation, error, duration, trigger source (Manual/Auto/Cron), and full Dropbox path breadcrumb.
3 Storage Modes
Dropbox Only (saves up to 90% DB space), Dual Storage (max redundancy), or Odoo Only — configurable independently per model.

Key Features
Every feature is engineered to eliminate manual file management and bring Dropbox natively into your Odoo workflow.
Auto Attachment Sync
Configure once — every file uploaded to Odoo is automatically routed to Dropbox with a 3-tier folder structure.
8 Models ReadyThe sync engine intercepts attachments from 8 pre-configured Odoo models — CRM, Sales, Accounting, Purchase, HR, Project, Inventory, and Helpdesk — and routes them to a structured 3-tier Dropbox folder automatically.
|
01
|
Chatter & direct upload interception
Files attached via Odoo chatter, form views, or the portal are all captured.
|
|
02
|
3-tier auto folder structure
Files land in Customer Uploads, Project Files, or Email Attachments sub-folders automatically.
|
|
03
|
Deduplication guard
A robust filter ensures the same file is never uploaded twice to Dropbox.
|
Choose exactly how each model stores its files — Dropbox Only reduces your database size by up to 90%, while Dual Storage keeps a local copy for compliance. Odoo Only disables sync entirely for that model.
|
01
|
Dropbox Only — Max Space Saving
File goes to Dropbox. Odoo stores a 0kb URL pointer. Reduces DB size by up to 90%.
|
|
02
|
Dual Storage — Max Redundancy
Binary stays in Odoo AND a copy is pushed to Dropbox. Best for compliance-critical models.
|
|
03
|
Odoo Only — Sync Disabled
Standard Odoo behavior. Use for internal admin models where Dropbox adds no value.
|
3 Storage Modes
Dropbox Only, Dual Storage, or Odoo Only — per model configuration, zero conflicts.
Per-Model ConfigNative File Explorer
Full Dropbox management inside Odoo. No separate tabs. No Dropbox account required by end users.
9 CapabilitiesThe built-in File Explorer is a complete Dropbox client inside Odoo — browse folders, upload files, preview documents, share secure links, and manage the full file lifecycle without leaving your ERP.
|
01
|
Multi-drive switching
Switch between Sales Drive, HR Drive, etc. from a single dropdown — each with its own folder tree.
|
|
02
|
Bulk upload & ZIP download
Upload multiple files with real-time progress. Download multiple files as a single ZIP archive.
|
|
03
|
In-modal file preview
Double-click any file to open a full-screen preview.
