Dropbox (Business)

Mount a Dropbox team account as a Windows drive — your member space and the team folders you have access to. In RaiDrive this is the Dropbox entry in the Business tab.

Before you begin

Prepare the following in advance:

  • A Dropbox team account.
  • If your team restricts third-party apps, ask a team admin to allow RaiDrive.

Connect

  1. Click Add in the toolbar.
  2. Choose Business → Dropbox.
  3. Set the drive letter and name, then click Connect.
  4. Your browser opens — sign in with your team account and click Allow.

Behavior & limits

  • Team folder permissions are enforced by Dropbox — read-only membership stays read-only on the drive.
  • The same temporary-file rule as personal Dropbox applies: names starting with ~$ or .~, and ~*.tmp names, are not saved — see Dropbox: fix files not syncing.

Troubleshooting

Symptom Cause Fix
Sign-in rejected by team policy Third-party apps restricted Ask a team admin to approve RaiDrive in the admin console
A team folder is missing You are not a member of it Ask the folder owner to add you, then reconnect
