Retrieve random images from a Dropbox folder and share them on Twitter

Turn your Dropbox surprises into Twitter buzz without lifting a finger.

  • Execute the task periodically
  • Get a random file from a folder (dropbox → files)
  • Publish a post (twitter → update_with_media)

Manually searching for images in your Dropbox, choosing one at random, downloading it, and then uploading it to Twitter is a repetitive task that quickly eats away at your creativity and productivity. Each cycle can take several minutes, and over time, those minutes add up—costing you valuable hours every week. If you skip this process, your Twitter feed risks going silent and missing out on timely engagement with your audience, which means less visibility and fewer followers for your brand or content.

This Botize formula takes all the hassle out by automatically selecting a random image from your chosen Dropbox folder and posting it directly to Twitter at the frequency you set—no manual intervention needed.

With full control to set how often posts go out, choose which Dropbox folder and file types to use, and layer on additional filters if you like, this automation adapts easily to your content strategy and workflow.

Ready to trade tedious manual posts for spontaneous, hands-free engagement? Just follow the simple step-by-step with Botize or activate this formula in seconds and watch your Twitter transform while you stay focused on bigger goals. Your audience—and your schedule—will thank you.
