Hi from me as well, beyon! The option to make your files online-only is currently only available if you’re on a paid subscription, or if you install the Dropbox for macOS on File Provider update, like Megan mentioned above.

Dropbox StaffThanks for the screenshot, beyon!
Does syncing work otherwise? If you add a file to your Dropbox folder, does it sync to your account on dropbox.com?
Also, what's the location of your Dropbox folder? Is it in your User folder or in ~/Library/CloudStorage?
yes, syncing works. My files are available online.
The folder is in my user folder. It was placed there by default.

Thanks for the update!
Can you also send us a screenshot of how the files appear in your Dropbox folder?
What kind of sync icons do they have on them?
They appear as usual.
Everything looks normal and behaves normal. I'm not new to dropbox, I use it since couple years at work.
Is this not a known issue?
