Using Dropbox Business Standard: When a user shares a folder with external users via their email, they get this pop-up: This is leading to numerous requests from users, not realizing that this is unnecessary in order to share their folder. Each requests results in a notification email, badge, and needing to deny the request. We do not want to add externals to our team at all. In our admin console, we have disabled "Members can invite people". However, they can still make these requests. Could you please provide a way to disable this popup? Thank-you!39Views0likes1CommentAbility to modify current folder settings from Admin Content view
When using the Content view in the Admin Console in a team/business plan: The buttons on the right sidebar which include Upload, New folder, and Show deleted files should include the ability to modify the current folder settings and sharing, just as can be done to the folder when looking at it from the parent folder's view. "Move", "Delete", "Manage access", "Download", and "Change sync default" could be made available without having to go back to the parent folder.135Views1like3CommentsCalculate all sizes
I feel like I'm living in a parallel universe or have time travelled back to 1985 but I would like to propose a simple, brilliant, obvious, missing feature: The ability to calculate sizes of multiple Dropbox folders. So that I can select hundreds of Dropbox folders (in the web version to get a true picture of actual storage) then calculate all sizes, then sort in size order. This has been a part of most operating systems for what, 20+ years? But Dropbox doesn't facilitate it. A cynic might suggest that it's a deliberate move to avoid customers seeing what is taking up space and choosing to delete, using up less space and therefore spending less money. But surely Dropbox wouldn't treat their customers in such a way...? I've been a loyal customer - and advocate - for many years in the face of cheaper competitors but this has honestly blown my mind.34Views0likes1CommentRestrict changes to top level folders while allowing changes to lower level folders
We have numerous incidents where a team member accidentally changes a high-level folder (rename, move, delete, etc) causing a cascade of sync problems and stalling the projects for hours. If certain folders could be restricted to read-only while still allow the child-folders to be editable by members, that would be extremely helpful.69Views0likes1CommentTab of external users and folders they have access to in Admin Console
Running into the Issue of how do we manage multiple external users. managing external collaborators is a manual nightmare, requiring us to check each shared folder individually or parse unwieldy CSVs from External Sharing reports its driving us crazy267Views2likes6CommentsTeam Admin Content view: display folder paths with links to each parent folder
A Team plan Admin can navigate to the Admin console Content view of folders from the regular folder view using the contextual menu "View in admin console". Once in the admin console Content view: There's no link to the containing folder. It would be preferable to have the path to the folder displayed with links to each parent folder: /TeamFolder/Subfolder/Subsubfolder/CurrentFolder The buttons on the right sidebar which include Upload, New folder, and Show deleted files should include the ability to modify the folder settings and sharing, just as can be done to the folder when looking at it from the parent folder's view. Understandable "Move" and "Delete" might not be available here, but "Manage access", "Download", and "Change sync default" could be made available.170Views0likes4CommentsOption to add team members to groups from the "Members" tab in Admin Console
When adding a Member to Groups in Dropbox Teams, it's necessary to go into each Group and add the Member. It is possible to remove a Member from multiple groups by clicking the X next to each Group from their Member page. It would be nice to be able to add a user to multiple groups from this location. Use case: We have multiple Groups for different teams and roles. Thank-you!117Views0likes2Comments
