a shortcut key to selective sync
in our organization we use the selective syns within preferences in the dropbox app, quite frequently.
We were wondering if there would be a way to assign a shortcut key or create a script or a macro, so we could be able with one click to enter:
dropbox app> initials > preferences > sync > choose folders
We were looking to AI which suggested a powershell script but that doesn´t seem that practical since it would have to be modified constantly and that we would have to know before hand, what the folders are named

did not realize that someone else had the same question and that it seems one can enter in 4 click instead of 5 via ctrl clicking the dropbox app - still it would be nice to be able to do it in 1 click.

Hi akb1, thanks for messaging the Community!
Currently, there isn't a method to assign a shortcut to access the selective sync window in the Dropbox desktop application.
If you wish, you can suggest this change for others to vote on, so the dev team can look into this in future!
Currently its 6 clicks to get to the Selective sync window, the one feature I use the most in the Dropbox UI... a shortcut would be very nice!
