Dropbox Product ManagerHello,
One additional solution I wanted to call your attention to is the External Sharing Report. You can find this under the Security tab in the Admin Console. From there, you can search files to see what's shared outside of the team and run a more comprehensive report. If you run a report, we'll generate a spreadsheet and place it directly in your Dropbox. It'll include these columns:
This doesn't quite combine "who has access" inside your team and "who has access" outside the team, but it does give a more comprehensive view of what's been shared externally.
I'm a Product Manager working on security tools for teams, so I'd love to hear from you if this helps solve the problem and what else you'd like to see in this space.
Thanks for taking the time to give us feedback!

Hi Austin,
That looks exactly as I would expect, all the detail I would need to audit existing access and a nice clear consistent format I could use to report on changes and so on.
Happily I quit that job a few months ago so isn't really relevant to me now! If I'm ever back managing a dropbox account though I'll be sure to check in on that feature.
Thanks,
Patrick
You only get a list of files being shared externally. It won't help you with an internal access control audit. Dropbox offers almost nothing in that regard and it is one of its major failings.
