I can't have Dropbox appear in the Finder sidebar, why?

I've installed the Dropbox app on my Mac, but I can't find a way to make it show up in the Finder sidebar for quick access. I've already tried restarting my Mac and reinstalling the Dropbox app, but nothing has worked. I looked in the Finder preferences under the Sidebar tab, but I don't see any option for Dropbox. This integration is really important for my workflow since I need easy access to my files. Is there a dependable method to integrate Dropbox with Finder on macOS?

    You're welcome, I think the moderators removed it because I recommended CloudMounter.

    Hi itahoki, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    What version of Mac OS are you running? Is the Dropbox folder located in the CloudStorage folder on your Mac?

     

    This will help me to assist further!
