How to add a shared folder to your account

You need a Dropbox account and a verified email address to accept a shared folder invite. Shared folders are added directly to your Dropbox account and sync with all folder members. If you don’t have a Dropbox account yet, you can create one and then accept the invite.

When you’re invited to a shared folder, you can access it by adding the folder to your account.

To add a shared folder to your Dropbox account through the Sharing tab:

1. Sign in to dropbox.com.
2. Click Shared in the left sidebar.
3. Find the shared folder you want to access. 
4. Hover over the folder you’d like to add and select Add to Dropbox.

To add a shared folder to your Dropbox account from your notifications on dropbox.com:

1. Sign in to dropbox.com.
2. Click the notification icon (bell).
3. Click Add to Dropbox under the shared folder you want to access.
