How can I export a photo from my Dropbox account to Messenger?
How do I access Dropbox from Messenger? Trying to select a photo only opens a limited selection in Google photos. I want to search my Dropbox. Would I need Premium to do this?

Hey Christine O.5, thanks for posting to the Dropbox Community today!
Can you let me know the exact steps you're following to share your photo?
If you try to share the photo directly from within the Dropbox app using the "Share" option and then the "Send copy of file" option, does it work?
Keep me posted.

Do it the other way around. Start in the Dropbox app, find your photo and open it. Tap Share, then Export a copy, then Export. Find Messenger in the list of apps and tap it. You'll have an option to write a message and you'll be able select someone to send it to.
