How To Automatically Upload a Zoho File Attachment to Dropbox from Zoho Creator using Dropbox API v2 and Zoho postUrl

I'm an idiot, so this took about 6 hours for me to figure out, but apparently many people have not been able to figure this out, and I could not find a complete and working solution online anywhere.

If you want to be able to upload a file to Dropbox from Zoho Creator, you have to create a custom function like below (here I called the function "Dropbox", under namespace "Create"). In the function, the ID is being passed to it from the underlying form entry.

void Create.Dropbox(int id)
{
url = "https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/save_url";
headers = {"Authorization":"Bearer XXXXX","Content-Type":"application/json"};
data = {"path":"/FFFF/TTTT.XXX","url":"YYYY"};
datastring = data.toString();
response = postUrl(url,datastring,headers,false);
}

... where XXXXX is your secret Dropbox Token, and YYYY is the url of the file you are uploading, and FFFF is the Dropbox folder to which the file is being uploaded, TTTT is the desired filename, and XXX is the desired extension.

This uses v2 of the Dropbox API. You can get your Dropbox token and use the very helpful Dropbox API Explorer here:

The key thing that was difficult to figure out and is not well documented is that the function toString() is necessary because Dropbox is expecting JSON and although the variable "data" above looks like JSON, it is not.

How to connect openai to zapier to twilio so that you can interface with GPT3 via SMS

I created an SMS interface to openAI's gpt3 API so that I can send an SMS prompt to openai and get an SMS response. Result looks like this: There may be better/easier ways of doing this, but this is how I figured it out. I'm assuming some degree of familiarity w/ Zapier here: 1. Buy a phone number in Twilio to use for this. This only costs $1/mo 2. In Zapier, create a new zap where the trigger is "Webhooks by Zapier" (Premium option). Choose your event as "Catch Hook". This will generate a webhook URL that is custom for this workflow. We are doing this because when you send the SMS to the Twilio phone number, you want it to **instantly** trigger the zapier workflow and not wait the 5-15 min it takes for Twilio to trigger on its own, so for that you need the webhook: 3. Copy the webhook URL from zapier and paste it into Twilio in the "A Messages Comes In" webhook section for that phone number 4. You will then need to send a test message so that Zap...
