shortcuts: Syncing audio recordings with dropbox on windows computer

Hello,

I made a shortcut with the shortcuts app that records audio and uploads the recording to my dropbox.

When I open the folder on the iPhone app I can find the .m4a files. But when I try it on my windows computer the folder is empty. It looks like there is a syncing problem. I can see the folder I made in the shortcuts app but there are no files inside the folder.

Is there someone who have the same problem?

Hello; I built a shortcut like yours and it works very well. The files arrive on my Windows computer only a few seconds after being saved on my iPhone.
Of course, troubleshooting this one will be difficult. Does synchronizing other files from iPhone to Windows via DropBox usually work for you?
May there be an issue with the file name? Windows doesn‘t allow for certain characters (like the : sign) to be included in the file name.
Anyway, I hope you manage to get this one working.
