Now I will briefly show you how to sync with Dropbox:

Step 1

establish the sync method with :config sync.target 7 , you could see which other options of sync there are with config --help

Step 2

You will asked to open the URL and authorize the Dropbox app in you browser,

Step 3

copy and paste the Dropbox token into Joplin.

That's all now you will see how Joplin starts the process of sync.
