Google Sheets & Slides crashes with Chrome browser

Hoping someone can help as Dropbox is saying this is a Chrome issue and can't resolve. My company uses Dropbox for files.  I open excel & powerpoint files from dropbox.com to google sheets & slides...

Nancy  Is it really necessary to have the connect apps for it to work?  My google docs works with chrome, but sheets and slides crash in chrome.

That’s necessary indeed, as this is related to the integration showing on your Connected apps page. 

 

Also, something more I wanted to suggest is to open an incognito window from your Chrome browser, and access your Google Sheets/Slides. Do you experience the same behavior?

 

Finally, what’s the OS version of your device, as well as the version of the Chrome browser you’re using?

 

I'd like us to isolate this as much as possible to see what's going on.

    Chrome: Version 100.0.4896.127 (Official Build) (arm64)
    Mac OS: Monterey Version 12.3.1

     

    Is this the app I should be connecting to dropbox?  https://www.dropbox.com/apps/google_suite 

    How do I connect it to my dropbox?  I click learn more and it goes to my dropbox home page.  There is nothing to accept it or anything.

      Hi again, thanks for all the details you’ve sent. They really help!

       

      Is it OK if I open tickets for both of you, so that we can investigate this further? I can message you to the email address that’s tied to your forum profile here.

       

      Let me know if that’s alright with you.

        Hey Nancy,

        this would be awesome!

        Sidenote: In Firefox it works fine
