Can I create an activity report for shared files?
Hello community!
Is there any way I can generate a full report on file-sharing activity (created, edited, deleted)?
My idea is to handle the data to create a time tracking sheet (when each member...

Oh, great!
Almost double the price to download my own activity log?
Would never think that access to my own information would be a premium feature.
Makes sense, amazing plans design!
Best!

Hi @Daphne, thanks for your reply!
My subscription is a Dropbox Business Standard account.
I've already played a bit with the activity log reports but couldn't find a file activity report:
- Added
- Edited
- Moved
- Renamed
It would be great if I could get this report with members, folders, and date information.
With a few queries in sheets, I could create an automated time tracking report for my studio.
Best!

Hey Eduardo Tosto, thanks for getting back to us.
Out of curiosity, when you type in "shared folder" in your activity monitor under your admin console's Activity tab, do you get any relevant results?
Keep us posted!

Hi @Lusil,
Thanks for getting in touch.
To be honest, I cannot find any file related activity as added, or edited.
I just get shared links related activities as opened or created.
In the activities field (button +add activity), there are no file related topics.
Am I missing something really stupid?
Best!

Just to make sure that I have a visual of this, could you send me a screenshot of what you see?
Thanks again, Eduardo Tosto!

Hi @Lusil,
I've just used the chat help and found that what I want is the events log.
As it seems it is impossible to get the complete team activity record in a CSV file.
That's what I was looking for.
It's a shame because the desktop app shows to me this information in real-time, but I cannot download it.
Would you have any suggestions?
Best!
