Hey @Marialavr, what you’ve read was correct, let me send you some tips & tricks to get going with that! 
 
[Edit: while we don't currently have an active integration between Google Sheets & Dropbox, the closest feature you could utilize to edit your files directly from your Dropbox account is co-authoring with Office Online and Dropbox.]
 
The Microsoft Office & Dropbox integration lets you open Office files stored in your Dropbox, make changes in the Office mobile and web apps, and save those changes directly back to your Dropbox. This & this will be helpful to you, though you can test it right now, following the steps below: 
 
Spoiler

How do I create new Office Online files from Dropbox?

#1. Sign in to dropbox.com.
#2. Click My files.
#3. Click Create a new file.
#4. Select Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.
#5. Sign in to Office Online and create a new file. 
 
Important notes on creating Office Online files from Dropbox:
  • When you click Create a new file and select a file type, you'll be redirected to Office Online
  • When you create a new file through Office Online, a link to this file is automatically saved to Dropbox for easy access
  • You must have an Office Online subscription to use this feature
Hopefully this addresses your initial inquiry, though please do let me know here in case you have any questions about any of the above. Enjoy the rest of your day until we talk again!

Ah, caught red-handed on this one (@BeBrief58), apologies for my misunderstanding. This integration isn’t currently available however you (in all likelihood) found this post after looking it up online. While I’ve now made sure to amend my previous comment, I understand that this feature may be important to you & I appreciate the time you devoted in writing me your feedback about my comment here. For that reason, I’ve made a note of your request & I’ve included that on my report internally. 
 
Please feel free to ping me back here in case you have any more Dropbox-specific inquiries & I’d just like to remind you that our Forum Wall is always open to your feedback or questions. Happy February & I’m wishing you a lovely weekend ahead!

so what happened with gsuite integration, i see no trace of it other than announcements on media outlets all dated march last year. Also doesn't this mean the question is not solved?

I completed the sign up a couple weeks ago and was told I was not eligible. I have our corporate Dropbox administrator (who reports to me) checking as well. Have the criteria changed? is that someone we could talk with directly about trying this integration? We are considering using Dropbox as our corporate standard cloud-based, shared storage environment. 

Need more support?
