Activity on shared folder

Good evening, I’ve looked beforehand but couldn’t see an answer for my question. Apologies if I have overseen it.

I have a personal account on Dropbox and was wondering if there is a way to see the activity on a shared folder at all ? I have shared a folder with one person. This person knows about it and I assume that they have received an email from Dropbox saying that files have been shared with them. What I’d like to know though is if they have accessed the files/ looked at them at all ? Is there any way to see this or find this out ? Thank you

      Thank you Mark 🙂 This link generally only shows my own activity or is this where I would see when a folder was accessed by the person it’s been shared with too ?

        That information isnt kept I'm afraid. 

         

        The only info is what you'd see at Events.
