How can I open a folder directly in the Admin Console from the All files tab?
Please add a button to the standard Dropbox folder view on the website to open that folder in the admin console. It's annoying when you get sent a link to a folder that someone needs changes made in ...
Thanks for your suggestion, jmsgrime! Hope youâre doing well.
When saying âstandard Dropbox folder viewâ, are you referring to the All files page on www.dropbox.com?
If yes, can you click on the button with the 3 dots on the right side of the folder youâd like to see in Admin Console and let me know if you still canât see an option to open it there directly? Please send me a screenshot of the options you see, as well.
Of course, if you wanted a different feature and I misunderstood something, please let me know.
Give me a nudge, once you have more details.

Thanks for the reply - I was using the cog from within a folder before, thinking it would have the same options as the 3-dot menu on the same folder from the previous node in the file path, which seems untrue. I can see now that some folders do have that option in the 3-dot menu:
However I noticed some do not:
It seems none of the root-level folders have the option, which is fine because they're easy to nav to anyway. I think there were some non-root folders that didn't have the option, but I got sidetracked by other tasks since testing this morning and now I can't find any subfolders that don't have the option, so I could be mistaken on that bit.
Seeing as I can't find any folders now that would be a hassle to nav to and don't have the option, happy for you to mark this as resolved if you're not aware of any subfolders that wouldn't have the option. Thanks for showing me where to go!
