How can I find out who uploaded a file in a shared folder?

I'm showing an upload that I didn't do. How can I find out who actually posted the upload. The dropbox is a shared account

    Hi 5628, thanks for posting on the Community!

     

    If you know the file in question, you can select the file and view the version history, which will tell you which user and device made the upload.

     

    You should also be able to see it on the events page.

     

    Hope this helps!
