Next, you’ll need to upload an audio file (mp3 or m4a) to your chosen Dropbox folder. This will create a Test Event, which you’ll be able to use to finish setting up and testing the automation.

Here’s a sample file you can download, then upload to your folder. **Click here to download it.**

Alternatively, you can record a voice note on your phone now!

Most audio-recording apps will let you upload files to Dropbox. But if you’re on iOS, I recommend RecUp:

‎RecUp - Record to the Cloud

It is currently the only app I can find that will automatically upload files to Dropbox after you finish recording (though this may also be possible with iOS Shortcuts).
