I can't find the option on how to create a file request via the Dropbox app.

I can’t find ‘create a file request’ on dropbox app; can’t find it. It’s definitely not in ‘Files’. This feature is missing. Can anyone please provide a screenshot of how to find it? Thanks!

    Hey Sarahaha, hope you don’t mind if I jump in. Can you clarify which Dropbox app you’re talking about? Is it the desktop or the mobile app? 
    If it's the mobile app, can you clarify the OS you're using?
