Dropbox integration

Save automated website screenshots to Dropbox.

Schedule a capture of any web page and have the image land in your own Dropbox, filed by date, without a sync client or a script in the middle. Built in on every plan, including the free one.

  • Dropbox is built in. No sync client, no second tool, no connector tier.
  • Log in, click through, and fill forms before the capture is taken and filed.
  • Schedule by interval, day of the week, hours of the day, and time zone.

01 / How it works

How to save screenshots to Dropbox in four steps

Roughly two minutes, once. After that the files arrive on their own for as long as the config is running.

  1. Create a screenshot

    Click + Create Screenshot in PagePixels and paste the page URL. Set the interval while you are there, from every five minutes to once a year.

    + Create Screenshot
  2. Connect Dropbox

    Click Connect in the right sidebar and authorise the account. Captures are written into the Apps/PagePixels folder in your Dropbox.

    Connect → authorise
  3. Add a filename prefix

    Give the config a prefix so its files group together and read properly a year later. Optional, and the date and time are always appended.

    Filename Prefix
  4. Save the screenshot

    Hit Save Screenshot, top right. The first capture runs immediately and the schedule takes over from there.

    Save Screenshot

Prefer to do it from code? The same config is one POST to /screenshot_configs, or one tool call from an agent over MCP.

02 / When it saves

Say when, down to the day of the week and the time zone.

A folder of evidence is only useful if the timing is deliberate. Set the interval anywhere from every five minutes to once a year, then narrow it: only on weekdays, only between two times, and in the time zone the page's audience actually lives in.

Every scheduled capture is written, which is what makes the folder a record rather than a sample. If you also want to know which day is the interesting one, add a change alert on a CSS selector and the message tells you, while the folder keeps the full sequence.

Both are on every plan, including the free one, and both work the same whether you set them up in the web app, over the API, or from an agent.

Control What you can set
Interval scheduled_every
Every five minutes at the fastest, out to hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or once a year.
Days of the week selected_days
Weekdays only, or the specific days that matter for the page you are watching.
Hours of the day between start / end
Hold the capture to a window, so a daily file is always taken during the page's working day.
Time zone time_zone
Run the schedule in the audience's time zone rather than wherever the server happens to be.
On demand POST /screenshot_configs
Fire a capture from your own code or from an agent over MCP and still have it filed in Dropbox.
Pause without losing the history off
Stop the schedule and the folder keeps everything already written, along with the copy in the archive.
03 / In the folder

What arrives in Dropbox, and what stays here.

The file is yours, in your own storage, under your own retention rules. The dated copy in our archive is the backstop.

What you get Detail
The image file png · jpeg · webp · pdf
The capture itself, full page or a single selector, at the size and scale factor you set.
Apps/PagePixels folder
Dropbox creates this folder when you authorise, and every capture on the account is written into it.
Dated filenames prefix + timestamp
Each file carries the date and time of the capture, so a config reads as a sequence rather than a pile of overwrites.
Your storage, your rules your account
The file lives in your Dropbox, under your own sharing, retention, and backup policy.
A copy in the archive archived here
The same capture is kept here and listable through the API, so a deleted folder is not the end of the record.
A permanent link cdn_url
One URL that always resolves to the latest capture of that config, with no API key exposed.

04 / Before the shutter

A folder full of login screens is not an archive.

The pages worth filing are usually behind something: a login, a consent wall, a tab you have to click into, a report you have to generate first. A tool that only takes a URL captures whatever the anonymous visitor sees, which is rarely the thing you wanted to keep.

Multi-step capture runs your steps in order in a real browser session first: fill the fields, submit, wait for the element, then capture and write the file. Thirteen action types, point-and-click in the app or as parameters in the API, on every plan.

You can also capture from a Real Location in 150+ countries, states, and cities, so a geo-gated page is filed the way a customer in that market sees it.

One config, in order
  1. Go to the login page url
  2. Fill email and password text_field ×2
  3. Click submit click
  4. Wait for the report wait_for_selector
  5. Capture the page png · full page
  6. File it in Dropbox send_to: dropbox
Same list of steps whether you build it in the web app, the API, Zapier, Make, n8n, or over MCP.
05 / What teams file

Four folders that fill themselves

Each of these is one config: a URL, a schedule, a filename prefix, and a connected Dropbox account.

  • compliance-terms-

    Evidence of what you published

    A dated capture of your own terms, pricing, or disclosure pages, written automatically into the Dropbox folder your auditors already read.

    daily 06:00 · full page
  • acme-report-

    Client reporting without the busywork

    Log in to the dashboard, wait for the charts, capture, and have the image waiting in the shared folder before the monthly call.

    monthly · multi-step login
  • competitor-pricing-

    A pricing history you can scroll

    Capture a rival's pricing page on a schedule so the folder becomes a timeline, and watch the price element so Slack tells you which day to look at.

    daily · watch .plan-price
  • campaign-de-

    Before and after, per market

    Capture a campaign page from each Real Location you run it in, so the folder shows what the page looked like in every market.

    weekly · 4 locations
06 / What you get

07 / Common questions

Screenshots in Dropbox, answered.

How do I save screenshots to Dropbox automatically?

Create a screenshot config with the page URL and an interval, click Connect in the sidebar to authorise Dropbox, and save. The first capture runs immediately and the schedule takes over. Files are written into the Apps/PagePixels folder in your account.

Is the Dropbox integration included on the free plan?

Yes. Dropbox, and every other integration, is on every plan including the free one. There are no connector tiers and no per-destination fees. The free plan is 25 screenshots a month with no credit card and no phone number.

Where exactly do the files land, and how are they named?

In the Apps/PagePixels folder that Dropbox creates when you authorise. Each filename carries the date and time of the capture, so a config reads as a sequence rather than a pile of overwritten files. Add a filename prefix to the config and its captures group together.

Can I choose a different Dropbox folder?

Not today. The integration writes into the Apps/PagePixels folder, and the per-config control is the filename prefix rather than an arbitrary path. If you need captures split across folders, move them with a Dropbox rule or route the capture through Zapier or Make instead.

Do the screenshots also stay in PagePixels?

Yes, and this is the part worth knowing. Every capture is kept in the archive while the account is active, listable through the API with dated thumbnails, and reachable through a permanent CDN link. So an accidental folder deletion in Dropbox does not destroy the record.

Do I need Zapier or Make to send screenshots to Dropbox?

No. Dropbox is a native destination, so nothing sits between the capture and the folder. Use Zapier, Make, n8n, or Power Automate when the capture also has to trigger something else, or reach an app we do not connect to directly.

Other destinations

Dropbox is one of ten. The same capture can go anywhere on this list.
