Common questions
Can Knit build “Set up project folders automatically for new tasks” between Dropbox and Glidr?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Dropbox and Glidr's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
What's the most common Files & Storage + Project Management automation?
Creating a matching folder in Dropbox when a new project or task is created in Glidr, and filing new attachments there automatically.
Does this sync file changes back to the task, or just one direction?
The Agent can post a note back onto the Glidr task whenever a file in its linked Dropbox folder is added or updated.
