Select multiple documents in Drobox Sign "your documents" list for bulk actions (deleting, etc.)
In the "your documents" section of Drobox Sign, users have the options to send reminders for unsigned documents, download, share, delete, etc. However, we can only do this on each individual document. What I'd like to suggest is the option to select multiple documents (maybe even a "select all" for the current filter) to allow bulk actions. I'm picturing something like most email clients have for emails: either checkboxes or shift-clicking, then "mark all as read" and "delete all", etc. In particular, I have at least 19 pages of documents (15 per page) dating back as far as 2021 that I no longer need. I'd love to delete them all, not only due to the clutter I see but I'm sure they take up some amount of storage on Dropbox's servers. However, asking me to manually delete each document individually is just unrealistic when it takes several seconds to click the "more options" three dots, click delete, confirm the popup, and wait for the page to reload. It'd probably take me the better part of a day, even assuming I didn't have other work to attend to. It would also be helpful if the "your documents" section had more filtering options than just document status and search terms. Filtering by date and by template used would be a good start. I'd also like to recommend giving the user some means of categorizing the documents in the "your documents" section, rather than just placing everything in a very, very long list. Either folders we can place documents in, or a tag system, or both.
Deleting multiple duplicated in a single operation
I often find duplicate photos in several folders using the 'Find duplicates' feature. Currently, I have to delete selected photos from each duplicate set one by one. It would be helpful if I could select all the photos I want to delete across multiple sets and remove them in a single operation. This would make managing duplicates much faster and more efficient.
Full file path for deleted files
I recent had many files deleted due to a Windows Chkdsk finding and repairing some disc errors. However, when looking under "Deleted files" or "Events" on Dropbox, in most cases only the main folder path is shown and not the sub-folders the files were actually located in. This made it near impossible to identify files. My suggestion is that the full file path (at least from the main Dropbox folder) is available for any deleted files so that they may be identified correctly. Taking another example... Supposing I had two (or more) large folders with sub folders in the same main folder and accidentally deleted both but needed to keep one. As things stand, both would be listed as having been in the same location (the main folder) and it would be impossible to find all the correct files to restore.
Delete docs in signatures
This idea included below was discarded by your team for lack of activity. However, I did see that my idea received 2 positive votes by other customers. I can certainly understand shelving the idea because you have bigger fish to fry. But to discard it outright makes no sense to me. This is not an idea so much as it is an observation of an obvious oversight. Not being able to delete docs that you no longer wish to store on a data storage platform that charges for data storage is a glitch that needs to be fixed. Please reconsider this "idea." Thanks. ============================ When I have completed an e-signature process on a doc and have saved the signed doc elsewhere, I would like to be able to delete that doc from the signatures section of the platform. At present, I am not able to do that. I use that section of the platform to manage my doc signature process and be able to instantly see which docs are in process. Once the doc has been signed, I no longer want to see that doc in that section. It gets cluttered. Plus, the platform charges for data storage. So the idea that I can't delete docs that I no longer wish to store lacks a certain aesthetic to the platform experience overall.
