You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Auto tagging files in a given folder, for both new and existing files works well, but only in that one folder. And files in sub folders are not tagged automatically, and needs a manual process to a...
Great work. The first request seem to work well on initial testing, i.e. recursive and existing recursive file tagging. Was there any movement on automation rules following a folder when duplicated, or tagging files at a file level in addition to a Dropbox level so that the tags are visible in Mac / Windows OS?
- Dropbox add functionality to “apply to existing subfolders” and “apply to newly created subfolders” (or even BOTH) - SEEMS TO WORK WELL
- Dropbox allow copied folders to retain automation from template structure, i.e. if we set automation rules up on a folder, and it's subfolders, if we duplicate that folder, the automation rules be retained on the new duplicated folders. Basically saves us having to add automation to every single sub folder for a given structure.
- Dropbox adapt the functionality to actually ADD the metatag TO the file itself rather than ONLY within the dropbox database.
