Can't attach a Dropbox Paper into Asana
Why is it not possible to attach a Dropbox Paper document in Asana whilst others work?

Hi Jay
Thank you for this fast reply.
I just opened a new «dropbox paper» document (in my account, yes). Not able to attach ... Here the link:

What error are you receiving specifically? Is the error coming from Asana itself?
- T BlumerHelpful | Level 6
It is in the dropbox dialog box (unfortunately I cannot attach a screenshot, can I?). Where as I can attach any kind of docs from dropbox, .papert does not work.

A Paper doc itself, is hosted on Dropbox servers, so the file itself will be non-functional outside of Dropbox.
Has attaching a Paper doc in Asana worked in the past?
You should be able to attach a screenshot with the camera icon in the reply box, or by copying and pasting the screenshot in your reply.

Yes, I understand. But it would be helpful to view (as for example with xls or download as with pdf).

Not that I know.
Screenshot is attached.
