Create Excel lists of Dropbox content

I'm doing an audit of what folders and documents we currently have saved in our folders on Dropbox. It would be great if I could generate a list in Excel or Word or PDF from the list of folders and documents in the Dropbox folders. Is there a way to do that?

  • Hi debattwg, thanks for contacting us.

     

    Currently, there isn't a feature available to perform the action you're looking for on the Dropbox site.

     

    If you wish, you can suggest this change for others to vote on, so the dev team can look into this in future.

      Is this feature now hopefully available? We need to export all folder and file names into Excel (or Word if that is the only available option). Please help!

        Hi rr12, currently, this feature isn't available on the Dropbox site. You can try suggesting this idea using the link in my previous post.
