# Storage Actions

## Introduction

The Storage actions in DBSync Cloud Workflow enable you to read from, write to, and transform files as part of your integration workflows. These actions are essential when your workflows involve file-based data exchange - whether storing reports, pushing data to cloud drives, working with CSVs, or saving output files for backup or downstream processing.

Storage actions give you the flexibility to interact with a variety of file systems, both local and cloud-based, including Amazon S3, Google Drive, FTP, Dropbox, and more. Additionally, with support for file formatting and restructuring, you can customize the structure and content of data before storing or transmitting it. Whether your use case involves backing up integration results, generating structured output files, or exchanging files with third-party platforms, Storage Actions help automate and standardize your file-handling processes.

This section introduces each storage-related action type and guides you on how to configure them effectively in your workflows.
