Hey there DavidBerg - thanks for posting on our Community and happy Monday!
I'm not sure if this would help, but are you familiar with the security alerts feature? If not, could you have a look here and let me know if this would do the trick for you?
Otherwise, you might want to change admin rights or permissions as outlined here and/or even check your events page for more information.
Keep me posted anyhow!

Thanks Walter, appreciate the reply. The limitation of the alerts for my use case is they are predefined, I can not tailor them to a specific folder within Dropbox.
I could probably use events post factum, but that then (as far as I know) does not allow me to configure a notification when the specific use case I'm after (opening a file in the specific team folder by one of the admins) is occuring.
Does the Dropbox API allow to query on these type of events (admin or user access to specific folders in Dropbox), as if so I could explore to potentially link that with a 3rd party SIEM to get the notifications configured?
