Shared Folders & File Uploads from Secondary Emails
Hi! I have been invited to a shared folder twice, to my personal gmail account which is my primary dropbox team and to a secondary email that is linked to my dropbox. I am able to access the shared folder, however it is only showing my gmail as access not the secondary email. Do I have to "unlink" my primary to have my secondary actually a part of the shared folder?
I'm asking because I need to create a file upload link and I want the link to originate from my secondary email (not my gmail).
Help please and thanks!
Thank you for the confirmation, but that doesn't feel right because when I create a file upload request, there is a footer at the bottom that says the file will be uploaded to my "First name last name" dropbox account instead of the owner of the shared folder. Shouldn't the owner of the shared folder be the end point for the upload? For example, If the owner of the shared folder removed me, I would loose access to anything uploaded so why is my name on the footer?

Hi MDLprod, could you confirm that the behavior you're experiencing is different to what is described in this article?
