Frequently Asked Questions
Is my data secure?
Yes. We use OAuth (the same "Sign in with Dropbox" you use everywhere). We never see your password or store your files. We only store a connection mapping that lets us proxy API requests on your behalf.
What permissions do you need?
We request file read/write permissions to access your Dropbox files and folders. You can see exactly what we request during OAuth authorization.
Can I disconnect anytime?
Yes. One click in your hub disconnects Dropbox and revokes access. You can also revoke access directly in your Dropbox Account settings.
What AI tools does this work with?
Any MCP-compatible client: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, and more. One connection works with all.
Can Claude read my file contents?
Yes. Claude can download and read text files, documents, and other content from your Dropbox. This enables powerful workflows like summarizing documents, analyzing data, or extracting information.
Can Claude create or modify files?
Yes. Claude can upload new files, update existing ones, create folders, and organize your file structure. You control what Claude does through your prompts.
