Can't Drag Files to Dropbox Folder in Catalina

Hello, In catalina I am no longer able to drag files in finder into the dropbox folder.  The selected object just sort of springs back into place and will not enter the Dropbox folder.

I was hoping the 10.15.3 update would fix it but I'm still not able to drag n drop onto Dropbbox in the sidebar.  Is this an Apple problem or a Dropbox problem?

Same here. The only way that I can add files is to open a new finder window, switch to Dropbox, and then drag n drop that way. Nothing else works. Apple told me it was a Dropbox problem.
