How can I have people add files to a folder without it taking up their space?
Hi all, I am a team member on a business standard plan. I created a link to a folder that I want to share with others that are not team members. I want them to be able to add files to the folder, but...
Hey anahitalita, thanks for reaching out to our Community.
To add to what Rich mentioned, you can also use file requests.
With file requests, you can request files from people and these won't take up their Dropbox space.
You can read more about them and how to create them here.
I hope this helps!
Hi. Can anyone help... I'd like to give someone permission to add files to specific folders on my drop box account on a continual basis. This person will not be able to open or re-write current content, only upload. How would I do this please? Thank you!

Hi andyandy8, how are you today?
I think that the best way to go on about it, would be for you to use a File Request.
That way, you can request content from said person, they'd add it to your account without them being able to see, download or edit content in the folder.
I hope this helps!
