The Dropbox Business API is an extension of the Dropbox Platform to help you meet your team where they’re working.
The Dropbox Business API enables a whole suite of security, compliance, and administration solutions — including eDiscovery, data loss prevention (DLP), and security information and event management (SIEM) — or the development of great new apps.

What third-party solutions can I enable for my team?
You can view a list of apps on the Dropbox Business Team apps page. That page also contains quick links to the third-party app's website.
