share.

Enter email addresses of whom you want to
share the folder.
You may also add a short message for them.
Click on “Share folder”.
An invitation email will be
sent to the recipients…
…and gives them a link to
accept your invite
Once they accept your
invitation, the folder will
appear in their Dropbox
account
Yes, they must have a
dropbox account too...
…for them to access what
you are sharing.
Can I still recover my
deleted items?

Click “Show deleted files”
Select the document you want to recover
