Copy blob to dropbox using azure functions

I'm looking at creating a function (blob trigger) that copies a blob to a dropbox folder.

Can someone give me pointers of what is needed

I have come across this, but not sure what to specify for connection or for the folder path in dropbox:

Your output binding will look like

{
  "type": "apiHubFile",
  "name": "outputFile",
  "path": "path/{file}",
  "connection": "dropbox_DROPBOX",
  "direction": "out"
}

where path is the path in drop box and connection is a Logic App endpoint. It's easiest to set this up in the Portal: go to your function, then Integrate tab, click New Output, pick External File and follow the wizard.

If it's a simple copy of a file from Blob Storage to a folder on Dropbox, the easiest way is to use a Logic App. The workflow would look something like
