Vinkius supports streamable HTTP and SSE.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
What is the Dropbox MCP Server?
The Dropbox MCP Server gives AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor direct access to Dropbox via 8 tools. Manage cloud storage via Dropbox — list folders, search files, handle shared links, and monitor space usage directly from any AI agent. Powered by the Vinkius - no API keys, no infrastructure, connect in under 2 minutes.
Built-in capabilities (8)
Tools for your AI Agents to operate Dropbox
Ask your AI agent "List files in my '/Projects/2024' folder" and get the answer without opening a single dashboard. With 8 tools connected to real Dropbox data, your agents reason over live information, cross-reference it with other MCP servers, and deliver insights you would spend hours assembling manually.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. Powered by the Vinkius - your credentials never touch the AI model, every request is auditable. Connect in under two minutes.
Why teams choose Vinkius
One subscription gives you access to thousands of MCP servers - and you can deploy your own to the Vinkius Edge. Your AI agents only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure and security, zero maintenance.

What the Dropbox MCP Server unlocks
Connect your Dropbox account to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud storage and file management through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Directory Orchestration — Iterate through explicitly nested directory items mapping native paths and analyzing contents returning names, tags, and server-modified times
- Metadata Inspection — Fetch absolute precise metadata bindings for exact native objects isolating unique IDs, hashes, and byte sizes natively
- File Discovery — Execute structural query matches leveraging V2 search boundaries to find files by name securely against indexed representations
- Shared Link Management — Extract exposed URLs explicitly tracking active public or restricted boundaries granting file downloads over sharing APIs
- Shared Folder Auditing — Isolate specifically nested directories governed under explicit organizational or cross-tenant permissions mapped internally
- Space & Usage Monitoring — Validate physical allocation blocks returning byte usage (used vs total) bounding physical server storage capacity
- Namespace Management — Reveal inbound shared spaces unmounted preventing synchronization and retrieve unmounted namespace IDs securely
- Account Oversight — Interrogate underlying tokens resolving precise user contexts including name, email, and account type bound natively
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Dropbox Generated Access Token (found in your Dropbox App Console > Settings > OAuth 2)
3. Start managing your files from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Knowledge Workers — search for documents and manage shared links without leaving the chat interface
- Developers — test and debug file storage integrations and verify metadata schemas through natural conversation
- Project Managers — audit shared folders and monitor team storage usage using natural language
- Ops Teams — verify account details and manage unmounted shared spaces in real-time
Frequently asked questions about the Dropbox MCP Server
Can my agent list files in a specific Dropbox folder?
Yes. Use the 'list_folder' tool. Provide the folder path (use an empty string for the root). The agent will return an array of items including names, types, and modification dates.
How do I find a file by its name through natural conversation?
Use the 'search_files' tool. Provide your query string, and the agent will execute a structural match against your indexed Dropbox files, returning the most relevant results.
Can I check how much storage space I have left via the agent?
Absolutely. The 'get_space_usage' tool retrieves your physical allocation blocks. It will show you exactly how many bytes are used versus your total account capacity.
