How to check Slack notifications for Dropbox activity
Once the Dropbox integration has been added to Slack, you’ll receive direct notifications from Slack regarding Dropbox activity.
You’ll receive a notification in Slack when:
- Someone shares something with you
- Someone views content you shared
Notifications are primarily for file activity, not folders. However, you’ll receive a Slack notification if you’re sent a folder via email. You won’t be notified if someone opens or views a folder.
Click View on Dropbox in the Slack notification to open a new browser tab with the file/folder in Dropbox. If the notification includes a PDF file, you’ll have the option to view or edit on dropbox.com.
