Add Shared Content to Personal Folder

Until recently, when someone shared a folder from Drobox, there was an option to add the content directly to my own personal folder of my business account.  Now, I can only ask to join the folder, and if I want the content, I have to download to a folder.  Can Dropbox plz bring this previous feature back?

    I see. Thanks for clarifying, mikeshick. 

     

    The option you’re referring to is now called “Copy to Dropbox”, indeed. 

     

    Please click on this button, and let me know if it helps with what you’d like to do. 

     

    If not, feel free to send me a screenshot of what you see instead, and I can take a look.

    Hi mikeshick! Thanks for posting here. 

     

    If you click on the “Join folder” option, aren’t you able to add the folder of your choice to your Dropbox account anymore? 

     

    Let me know.

    there is a join, but I can't join many of these.  I think DB added back a button to copy to account now.
