Hi Jay, thanks for the response
actually - foreseeing possible problems with the rotations - the ADMIN user e-mail was set to company official e-mail that is administrated by company chairman (which also should alwys become DROPBOX ADMIN). That is this e-mail is "admin@business.com"-like- Jay3 days agoDropbox Staff
Thanks for the info, this is generally the best option, since an email like that would remain the 'standard' and the new admin could take over the account and the email inbox to reset the password if need be.
While I understand that your Dropbox team is only 3 members, we do generally recommend at least 2 team admins, in the unlikely case that the email is no longer accessible in the future, and to prevent abuse by the sole admin. However, this can be something you can do if the company expands.
Do you need any further assistance on this matter?

I think I need instruction how to grant other user admin rights.
