Dropbox Business account support

Destination Issues
1

Sort of a two-part question:

  1. Why force the destination path with Dropbox connections? This seems unnecessary.
  2. We want to upload to a Dropbox Business account into a specific Team folder shared with other team members. That forced path design prevents us from seeing the root Teams folder path structure in a Dropbox Business account.

We need to upload to the Team folder defined by Dropbox but the connection UI only shows paths in the authenticated user personal Dropbox area.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the detailed feedback.

Currently, our Dropbox integration does not support selecting folders from a Dropbox Business Team Space, which is why you only see folders available within your personal Dropbox area.

Supporting Dropbox Business Team Space folders would require additional changes to our Dropbox integration. We don’t currently have this improvement planned for the near term, but we’ve added your use case to our feature requests.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Understood. Thanks for the response.

I think it will open some more doors for you as you continue to grow. Your software is incredibly well designed. And it can serve several key roles in those larger corporations that also utilize the Business Dropbox like mine does.

Happy to play beta tester if you decide to take the leap. Just let me know.

Hi Joe,

Thank you for the kind words — really appreciate it.

And thanks for offering to help with beta testing. We’ll definitely keep that in mind if we move forward with Dropbox Business Team Space support.
