Hi Emanuel O., you can use Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides created on dropbox.com, however you can't move them to your Dropbox account from Google.

Hi Emanuel O., let's jump right into this!
This doesn't seem like a Dropbox related error, I have to admit. I did some re-search on my end on Google, and it seems this usually happens when you're trying to copy content from one drive, to another one with a different format.
Or when the file is corrupted. If you try to preview the content on their initial path, are you able to do so? Also, are both of these drives the same format?
Keep me posted!
- Emanuel O.2 years agoExplorer | Level 4Let me be clear, this is direct question about about compatibility between Google Drive own formats and Dropbox, and not do much a generic abswer like yours "maybe its corrupted, maybe that, maybe something else".. no im asking a direct question a dropbox product manager or tech team can share a yes or bo, plain simple.
FYI: I been uding google drive as main drive, but just discovered it causes problems for me as developer to compile c++ when source is in google drive, but then found out Dropbox doesn't have the problem, so I was thinking moving all my development files from google drive to Dropbox, but early in the copy i received error i shared in post and it only happens with any of the 3 google drive files format:
*.gsheet
*.gdoc
*.gslide

Hi Megan,
If i can't copy from my local google drive a .gsheet, .gdoc or .gslide into my local dropbox folder then how can I create google docs, google sheet or google slides in Dropbox ?
Thanks,
Emanuel
