    <description>&lt;P&gt;Ok. &amp;nbsp;Honestly I feel like that should be an option that is available. &amp;nbsp;That way you can choose to have it on or off. &amp;nbsp;If DB can see uploads and downloads I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to add a date and time modified notification. &amp;nbsp;Many other services do it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Email notifications not sending out when Dropbox file is modified</title>
      <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Settings-and-Preferences/Email-notifications-not-sending-out-when-Dropbox-file-is/m-p/775146#M18311</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;I am uploading audio files to a shared Dropbox folder. &amp;nbsp;Each team member and the owner (myself) all have Folder/Activity/Follow/ have "Files Added" "Files Deleted" and "As Activity Occurs" all checked off. &amp;nbsp;All of us have in our Settings/Personal Account/Notifications/ all have "Activity in Shared Folders (weekly digest) "Viewer Activity on Tracked Files (daily digest) and "All new viewer activity (real time) checked off.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So I have been uploading a file and then I might modify that file, I might make an edit, but the file stays the same name and length. &amp;nbsp;Or I might change the suffix of the file but keep it the same. &amp;nbsp;Whenever I make changes like that everyone's Folder shows them that the file was changed but emails DO NOT get sent out. &amp;nbsp;The only time anyone in the group gets an email is when a file is added or deleted. &amp;nbsp;Now of course that makes since the only options in the shared folder notifications are about deleting and adding but a Dropbox support staff told me that any type of modification would trigger an email. &amp;nbsp;If they had it on "immediate" then they normally receive an email in about 10 minutes. &amp;nbsp;Sometimes less and sometimes more. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;One of the people on the folder has a free account and one has a basic account and the exact same thing is happening with them both so it's a tiered plan issue. &amp;nbsp;I just think that the email does not trigger with a modification. &amp;nbsp;It really should. &amp;nbsp;So if someone knows how to make this happen or if I'm doing something wrong I'd love to know what to fix or change. &amp;nbsp;Or, if someone knows that emails do not trigger from just modifications I'd like to know that as well. &amp;nbsp;Also, do I need something like Zapier to make what I want happen? &amp;nbsp;thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi there &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1556120"&gt;@Goom &lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;- thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on this with us.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What you described is actually expected when &lt;A href="https://help.dropbox.com/organize/follow-folder" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;following a folder&lt;/A&gt; as simple edits on files won't trigger email notifications. Imagine for example a large team working on a shared folder simultaneously and the issues that could arise by the multiple notifications even for small edits as the ones you mentioned.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The Zapier automations you mentioned or some 3rd party app/integration might be able to help in that regard though so feel free to take a look and give it a go too if you like.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Let us know if you have any other questions.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
