A member was removed from a folder but cannot find any logs who removed her.

Hi, 

 

I would like to seek help on how to check the logs further, as a member was removed from a folder but cannot find any logs who removed her from the Activity logs. 
She can view folder shared with her and its contents, but yesterday her name suddenly been missing, and we would like to find out how did it happened.

 

Thank you.

    Hi Richard Anthony, welcome to our Community, and let's jump into this! 

     

    Are we referring to a Team folder, or a shared folder inside the user's personal space? 

     

    You also mentioned that she can view the folder. Is she looking locally at the web, or at her desktop app? 

     

    If you could also clarify the exact plan you're currently using, that'd be lovely, thanks! 

     

    I'll be waiting for your response, Richard!

      Hi Megan,

      Thanks for your reply, we are using Dropbox Advance or Business plus, the one with 5TB per user.
      It's actually a team folder... she was able to view the folders and files until the other day, she feedbacks that we could no longer see the folders, upon checking from the Activity at the Admin Console, her name is no longer inside the list of members who can view/access that folder. 

      Is there any other way to check? As I can't find anything related to the removal of her from the shared folder/files...

       

      Thank you.
