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.
Need clarification on an email about moving Google docs
Clarification needed on this obscure message, which directs to this help page: How to move Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides https://help.dropbox.com/integrations/move-google-docs#FAQ Which starts by stating: This article is for Dropbox users who have Google files in their Dropbox accounts. If you’ve received an email asking you to configure your preferences for migration, then this article is for you. We do nothave google files on our dropbox. We simplyopenexisting dropbox files (.xls in particular) in Google Sheets to allow collaborative editing. Could admins please confirm that the removal of this functionality does not require any action on our part, in this case? It would also be great to knowwhythis is happening, after what was apparently a heroic effort to enable it in the first place?Solved2.2KViews6likes4Comments'Can not upload the file' error when attaching from Dropbox to Gmail on Android
When I try to add an attachment from dropbox to a mail in gmail, I receive a message in gmail "can not upload the file". This error occurs only on one smartphone with android 12. If I do the same , with the same dropbox and google account, on an other android phone (android 11 )or an android tablet, there is no problem. Both phones have the same app version of gmailSolved46KViews5likes257CommentsEnable "Protect sheets and ranges" option with Dropbox-integrated .gsheet
The option to protect sheets/ranges is available by default in Google Sheets normally, but for some reason, is lost when integrated with Dropbox. The ability to protect/lock previous entries is essential to ensure we keep accurate records that are not mistakenly over-written over time -we need data entered at the completion of a study to be immutable, and only allow new rows to be entered. While this exists in a Google Sheet outside of Dropbox, integration with Dropbox would make the .gsheet easier to access and located in a common repository with all of our other raw data/files.1KViews4likes1CommentHow can I forward emails with attachments from Gmail to Dropbox?

Everything worked until today. How to solve the problem? Thanks a lot! AndreySolved12KViews2likes22CommentsDropbox files moved to Google Drive
Unsure if this is where I need to be. I just received an email from DropBox (supposedly), stating I need to migrate my Google files to My Google Drive within 30 days [Action Required] otherwise my files will automatically be converted to Microsoft files. Does this sound legit? I would appreciate a response to help me decide if I'm being hacked. Thank you!Solved3.2KViews2likes3CommentsSign in with Google Workspace to edit business file
Hello! I am trying to open a doc in Google Sheets and have keep receiving this message: Sign in with Google Workspace to edit business file. I have a google email, but I don't want to sign up to Google Workspace. Can someone advise? Thanks!2KViews2likes14CommentsAPI access token expired
Why, if Google is supposed to be so great, does their software do this kind of **bleep**? I received an extremely important Proposal for Collaboration yesterday and it says the API is expired and then it wants me to program a bunch of crap. I’m not a programmer nor do I want to be. Thats why I hate Google and their products. Using Dropbox sucks. Advertising with them is a pain in the ass. They are a second rate company. Why they haven't fired their CEO and got someone to run the company who knows what they’re doing is beyond me. How do I fix the API so i can read the document?Solved2.4KViews1like10CommentsNo 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 phone1.6KViews1like9Comments
