Under which admin profile is it able to view all folders and documents or does each user need to share the folder with admin?
Hey there @chris_g2 - how are you today?
From what I gather you must be talking about the different tiers of team Admins on the Advanced or the Enterprise Dropbox for Business plan - correct me if I'm wrong please.
If that's indeed the case, I'd suggest taking a look at the following Help Center article; specifically the part about the Tiered admin permissions:

If you have any further questions in the meantime, please let me know!

Hi
My question is if the Team Admin has ultimate viewing capabilities of all folders either made private or not.
thanks

Thanks for getting back in touch @chris_g2!
If you're talking about Team Folders (or Team Space for newer teams), then yes, a Team Admin can use the 'Sign-in As User' feature to organize a new employee's account, troubleshoot issues and/or keep a project moving in case a team member is away from the office.
Important note: If a team member has connected their personal and work Dropbox accounts, sign in as user will not let admins access their personal Dropbox account.
For more information you can see here:

Let me know if this helped Chris!
