Document won't open in Google Sheets
I am new to drop box. I signed up for DropBox with my Google Workspace account. When I try to open a document that was shared with me in dropbox. I am able to view the document but when I go to open in Google Sheets it says that I need to sign in. I am signed in, duh I used my google to sign in to dropbox. Anyway. I have tried numerous things but this message continues to plague me. It shows up. I click sign in and it goes to a screen briefly (very briefly) saying I am logged in with my Google Workspace account however I get stuck in this never-ending loop that never allows me to open this document in google sheets. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hey ssghudsonkj, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Can you try again from a different browser or a private browsing/incognito window, to see if that helps?
If not, please send us a screenshot of the error and we'll go from there.
Thanks!

Tried it with no success. Here is a screen recording of what's going on.

Your link is not available to view. It's forcing a login and and then you need to request access to the file.
