## Frequently asked questions

What is the Dropbox connector?

The Dropbox connector lets users choose files from Dropbox and import them into Better Analyst for AI-powered analysis, dashboards, charts, and reporting.

Does Better Analyst store Dropbox tokens?

No. The first Dropbox version uses the Dropbox Chooser for immediate selected-file import and does not store Dropbox OAuth tokens for background access or sync.

What file types can Better Analyst import from Dropbox?

Better Analyst supports spreadsheet-style files from Dropbox, including Excel workbooks, CSV files, and TSV files.

Does Better Analyst edit my Dropbox files?

No. Better Analyst imports a copy of the selected file for analysis and does not edit, delete, or overwrite your source Dropbox file.

Can Dropbox files refresh automatically?

Not in this first version. Automatic Dropbox sync would require a stored OAuth connection and refresh-token handling, which is planned separately from selected-file import.

Can I build dashboards from Dropbox files?

Yes. Once imported, Dropbox files can be used as sources for AI chats, dashboards, charts, reports, and spreadsheet workflows.
