If I remember right (e.g. this thread from 2016) it used to be impossible to have the DropBox desktop client on any single computer be linked to more than one DropBox Business team at a time.[1] Has that been fixed yet?
FWIW, here is my specific use-case, in case there are other ways of solving our problem. (Note: Our case involves the need for only two linked business accounts, but the more general case is where "two" is simply replaced by "more than one"). So:
In the event that the only-one-business-account-at-a-time limitation has still not been removed, if there's another way to meet the above requirements, I'm all ears. (Note: at the moment our workaround is to simply share, with the external users, the required access to any needed files or folders. But that is very sub-optimal and means we don't get to make full use of features such as Groups).
thx.
[1] Desktop syncing to one personal account and one business account was fine -- it still is; but two business accounts was not permitted.
[2] In our specific case, it's an external accounting firm, but in the general form of the problem, it could be lawyers; HR advisors; or any number of external consultant type people/firms; and even several of them at the same time.
Hi @ThomasQ, thanks for messaging the Community!
Currently, it isn't possible to connect to more than one Dropbox Business team.
