Any way to get a list of all files on my Dropbox account?

Hi, Is there a way to print the entire list of folders and files within my Dropbox account? Thanks.

    +1 as long as Dropbox Smart Sync is only available to Business Teams and not to individuals.

    ATMeyer, advising people to use the Data From Folder command can lead to disastrous results in terms of stability and crashes. This command is intended to load the data in all files in the selected folder. It doesn't matter if you unselect the first column "Content": Excel at least performs an analysis of the files. At best, this process will fail with any realistic Dropbox folder size; Excel might crash; but at worst, the entire system might crash when attempting to list the entire Dropbox folder contents this way. It's like making a list of all books in a library by asking someone to read them all.
