We have a bit of a security risk with dropbox.
Somehow dropbox is prompting external third parties to request to join our team.
This is very simply not OK.
We have over 100+ requests to join our team. If they join, we have some folders with all team access that are highly confidential. It will take an admin just a mistake ONE time for this to occur. Such bad UX
Does anyone know how to turn this off? I've been trying for a while, but it's totally ridiculous. Dropbox is definitely doing something to prompt users, because there is NO reason for them to request access otherwise.
Hello there @jre1, I'd be happy to assist!
You can block those invitation requests, from the Membership settings, on the Admin Console.
Feel free to disable all the options in that page, and it should put an end to those requests.
I hope that helps!

Great, this is better than help response I got which was focused on sharing - which we already do.
