I see same issue. I use this daily and 2-3 days ago excel app won't connect to dropbox longer. Word app an PowerPoint app still works. Every time I try to open a excel file located in Dropbox the app wants me to login to Dropbox but it never works. The Dropbox folder is also no longer a file location in the app when pressing open. When manually trying to add Dropbox as location same issue occurs. In Word app Dropbox can be found as a file location when pressing open. So the issue is clearly in Excel app.

Same issue with the EXCEL in dropbox and Andriod14 for a while now. Already cleared the cache, nothing resolved.
