# Installation

> Install and configure the Dropbox Paper integration with Rootly to enable automated retrospective document creation and incident documentation workflows.

## Introduction

The Dropbox Paper integration connects Rootly with your Dropbox account so teams can automatically create and update retrospective documents during and after incidents through Genius workflows.

With the Dropbox Paper integration, you can:

* Automatically create retrospective documents in Dropbox Paper from incident workflows
* Populate documents using Rootly retrospective templates or custom Liquid templates
* Update existing Paper documents as an incident progresses
* Attach created documents directly to the incident record

## Before You Begin

Before setting up the integration, make sure you have:

* A Rootly account with admin permission to manage integrations
* A Dropbox or Dropbox Business account

  We recommend installing the integration with a **service account** so it does not break if the installing user leaves your organization.
</Callout>

  Access level depends on your Dropbox account type:

  * **Dropbox Paper** (personal) — non-admin access is sufficient, but you will only have access to your personal folders
  * **Dropbox Paper Business** — admin-level access is required to access team folders and namespaces
