Link personal account to multiple business accounts

Like the title says, I have multiple business accounts as I have two jobs, both of which use Dropbox Business. Fortunately, they both provide me with computers so that I have one business app on each computer.

 

My question is - is it possible to "link my personal account" to both of them? I didn't try this as I don't want to potentially lose access to my files.

 

Thanks.

    If you connect a personal and a work account together, you won't be able to link either of them to another one. 

     

    For this reason, you'll have to choose which ones you want to connect and which ones you want to have locally on either device.  

     

    I understand that this may not be the ideal reply, but let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers!

    Hi Ben, is this beta still running? I was about to sign up for a Professional account today until I found out linking one personal account to two different Business accounts wasn't possible. I need to be able to do this!
