Add Dropbox as a place in Office 365 for Mac OSX

Thanks for posting the following information. It helped me a lot in solving my issue. I have another query to ask. Whenever I am going ahead and trying to create an outlook profile and I am trying to connect to a Microsoft office 365, I am getting an error "trying to connect". I have checked all the settings and gone through the configurations office 365 login. 

Suggest me if I missed out anything.

I have been ushing office 365 for a long time and I am very satisfied with my pc which runs on windows10, but recently I bought a MacBook pro for my personal office work. So I need office 365 for my work before in the app store ofic365 is not available but now it is available with less functionality. I bought it and installed microsoft office 365 download it from App Store. But I did not find the dropbox in it and I need it so how to enable dropbox in mac. If anyone know the solution then help.

Hi, is it real? I could do the integration with the Ipad pro, but I can not with the Macbook Air.

How is that possible? And I did it before they werw separate OS. 

Hi there Sabanero, thanks for joining us here!

You can still set Dropbox as a location within the mobile apps, regardless of the OS (Android or iOS).

You can find the steps here under the iPad section on how to unlink/relink your Dropbox account to the Office mobile apps.

However, for the desktop Office apps this is only an option for Windows users.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Is this a technical issue or is Microsft just making it difficult to try to entice users to their product (365)?

Any update? It is mind-boggling that DropBox is, in essence, not fully compatible with OSX.  I had previously used Office 365 on a Dell PC and synced to my mobile devices.  Now that I upgraded to an iMac desktop I have lost functionality and cannot use AutoSave for any Office work but instead have to save locally (and often) and then add the files to a preexisting DB folder?  That's nuts.

Hi Rover3d, as this is a restriction to the Office app itself, this is unrelated to Dropbox itself.

It you're interested in this feature, I'd recommend contacting Microsoft, as it is their product which no longer allows Dropbox to be added as a place.

Hope this helps to clarify matters!

I really miss this feature. Love Dropbox but this is very inconvenient when using the world's most popular office programs. Unbelievable that Dropbox cannot be added as a place in Microsoft 365. Please get this sorted as soon as possible!

McMorse - please have a read of the thread, it is a restriction imposed by Microsoft not Dropbox.
