Dropbox StaffHey DreamingUser100, thanks for reaching out to us today.
A team admin on a Dropbox Business Advanced team should be able to access team activity for such a file operation.
If you go to the Activity tab in your admin console, and click on "Add activity" in the "activity" section, then select "file operations", you should be able to see a "downloaded files and/or folders" option.
This, of course, is available for actions taken online. At the moment, there's no way to monitor this in the Dropbox folder.
We appreciate your feedback in this case and I will make sure to pass your comments along to our team.
If you have any further questions, please let us know.
Thanks Hannah. I cannot stress enough how useful this would be to monitor this in the Dropbox folder as this is where our largest security blind spot is. We have tried working with our SOC to use other Window event logs to track this but simply cannot find a way to do so as of yet.
