Does Dropbox have a feature like Google Drive's - Add shortcut to Drive

I am trying to create a shortcut to a folder in another folder. Does Dropbox support this?

 

Example. Folder A has some materials I want anyone looking in Folder B to know exists elsewhere. Can I create a shortcut to Folder A inside Folder B to point my team to it?

    Hi elliothamer, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Currently this isn't possible on the Dropbox site, since users can have different locations for the same folder on their own account.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
