I can't join a shared folder, error: "We were unable to complete your request"
Hey,
i cant access a shared folder and even tried to do it on my phone with the dropbox app, but that also didnt work. Everytime I click on Join Folder it just says "We were unable to complete your request". So i dont know what to do to solve this problem. Can you please help me?

Hello, Have you tried clearing the Dropbox cache and ensuring that you're not running any third-party browser extensions?
If still not working I suggest you to contact the folder owner to ensure you still have access and haven't been removed from the shared folder's permissions.
What I meant was that I couldnt join the folder in the first place. I got sent a link to the shared folder and pressed on join folder but everytime I tried I got this one error. I tried clearing cache and removing browser extensions. I now asked the owner to look at it from their part. Could it have something to do with the fact that I just created this account?

Hey frotierstds - sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that if you have already verified your email with Dropbox there should be no issue joining the shared folder in question.
Are you still getting the same error when you try to join the folder from the sharing tab?
Hey,
I also have this problem and tried everything in this thread. I tried it on my phone but that also didnt work. Please help.
