Visit this article to see all of the available Dropbox alerts.
“File Shared Externally” alert
The “File Shared Externally” and “Folder Shared Externally” alerts notify you when any Dropbox file or folder is shared directly with a user outside of your Dropbox team. Admins can also scan externally shared files for sensitive content. Learn how to set up the “Files Shared Externally” alert.
“Sensitive Data Scanned” alert
The “Sensitive Data Scanned” alert notifies you when your domain’s files contain sensitive data and can trigger an automated remediation workflow. Learn how to set up the “Sensitive Data Scanned” alert.
Note: This alert only scans content created after the add-on is set up. Admins can use “Select Scans” and “File Audits” to scan past content.

Account Capture workflow

Note: The “Account Capture” or “All Users Capture” feature is only available to Dropbox Business Enterprise teams.
