    Hey UN_for_DP_forum, thanks for reaching out to us. 

     

    You are right, currently, you can receive email notifications for:

    • The activity on shared folders and Paper docs on a weekly basis (digest). 
    • Comments, mentions, to-dos and changes that occur to Paper docs you follow soon after they have been made.

    You can also have a look at this article, which mentions that, with the Zapier integration, you can get custom alerts via email for changes and additions made to your Dropbox folders. 

     

    In any case, I understand how important this is for you, so if you'd like to receive email notifications about changes that happen in real-time to shared content, you can post it as an idea here, where other like-minded users can comment and upvote. 

     

    I hope this helps to some extent, but let me know if you have any other questions.
