Our team has been experiencing the same issues. We have multiple Google Docs that we have already been working in. Some of those Docs are now displaying the same error message. Following to receive updates.

Hi there sustainingfarmers & ablunck - thanks for your reports and sorry to hear you're having issues with this.
If you find that this happens to other browsers as well and on multiple files, you could try disconnecting the integration from your account's Connected Apps tab and re-connecting it anew from the App Center.
Keep us posted!

Hi Walter,
Thanks for your input. I can confirm that the issue persists in other browsers (Chrome & Safari).
I am hesitant to disconnect and reconnect the Google integration. Can you guarantee that this will not create any problems with all of the Google files saved in our Dropbox account?
Also, after additional urging, Dropbox support is now investigating the issue further to try to solve it on the backend. If I receive any more information, I'll share it here for others experiencing the same problem.

Instead of disconnecting the integration, you could try copying the file and then try to preview the copy.

Ah, I just tried the copy method on my desktop, and it worked there. Thank you!
It's a relief to have this workaround to recover these broken files, but do you have any idea why they're suddenly breaking?
I hope that Dropbox continues to resolve the issue so that Google files in Dropbox don't continue to break.
