View Complete Login History

Hello all!

How can I view when my complete history of when I logged in to my Dropbox account?
Of course, under personal account -> security, I can see some of this activity. How can I see the complete activity? If that's not possible, is it possible to see the complete history (times, dates, IP address) of the times my account opened one of my own files? I need to see my account's activity back in the fall of 2016.

 

Many thanks for your consideration and time!

    Hi ahmed maher 

     

    No. As Rich said this information simply isnt stored. It is not possible to get it. 

     

    Even if you upgraded now the storing of information would only start from today.

    There's no option available for that. Only what you see on the Security page.

      Hi again people! 🙂

       

      Just wondering if someone has found any way possible to view your own account's complete login history. It's quite simple to see the most recent login history with location and time of login. However, if anyone has figured out how to see years of login history, please, please let me know. Possibly if I upgrade?

       

      Much appreciated! 🤞🤞🤞
