No Dropbox files showing, when trying to attach them to my email on my iPhone 14

Since upgrading my iphone to 14 when I try and attach a file from Dropbox to either an outlook or gmail message it shows the icon but the folder is empty even though I have full access via the Dropbox app. This was working fine previously on my old phone

    Hey Mikecos, welcome to our Community! 

     

    Would you be able to walk me through the exact steps you follow, when trying to attach a Dropbox-related file on either Outlook or Gmail? 

     

    Do you use our Dropbox for Gmail add-on?

     

    In the meantime, can you download the files you'd like to attach in your email from our website locally to the device, and attach them from there?

     

    When you want to attach files, what exactly happens? A screenshot of this would be greatly appreciated in your next reply.

     

    Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!

      Hi Megan
      I start a new email, click on the attach icon and select Dropbox from the files menu. The folder is empty. Ive got Dropbox on the phone and can select a file and create an email to share it but not the other way round
