I"ve tried to monitor the folder size of 'Camera Uploads" in Dropbox. I couldn't get near a solution. Can anyone help with this.

Can you describe in more detail what you are trying to do?

Thank you Mr_Noodle,
Dropbox will automatically upload photos from a camera or SD card. It puts them i a folder called "Camera Uploads." You are allowed a certain number of GB's. When you are close to that number you get a warning to remove some files or purchase more space.
I would like to do a rule to watch the size of that folder. And remove the oldest files until the size reaches a certain level.
Thanks for listening and your consideration.

Have Hazel watch that folder and add a rule like:
- Code: Select all
If (all) are met
If (all) are met for (the enclosing folder)
Size is greater than X
Date added is among the 1 least recent
Move to trash
To get the nested condition, hold down the option key while clicking the + button to add a new condition.
