Google/Dropbox integration changing?
Hello: A colleague of mine at another organization received this message from Dropbox: We’re writing to let you know that Google files stored in Dropbox will move to Google Drive on 7/20/2023...

Dropbox StaffHey Alan Septoff, thanks for posting your question to our Community.
Having questions about this change is understandable, so I would highly recommend taking a look at this article from our help center.
It has all the relevant info about the change and your options, but if you still have questions, you can always let us know.
Cheers!
I want to see how this works in practice ASAP -- but I haven't received an email from dropbox about it (only a colleague has) and the options mentioned in the help page you linked doesn't provide conversion options for me. Specifically the below:
How to move your files to Google Drive
To move your files, you can click the button in your email or the banner that pops up on dropbox.com. To do so:
- Sign in to dropbox.com.
- A menu will appear to move or convert your Google Files.

Thanks for getting back to us here, Alan.
At the moment, there's nothing we can do to speed this up, really.
You'll need to wait until you receive this email as well, as this is being rolled out.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Why is it being rolled out?
It seems like a feature deprecation.
One more question Hannah -- is there any example instance where we can test these things out even as we're waiting for it to rollout to our instance?
