Thank you for posting this idea - I was in search of something very similar. Is there a way to link a folder or document to multiple different places. For example - someone on the team who works with grants may need to see the same contract as someone who works in research. We want to avoid duplicating folders because then you have to make updates every where. Is there a way to link them together so when you update in one place it automatically updates to all places the document lives?

Hi Shira & Jeanique,
Thanks for your answers and for taking the time.
I think Shortcuts can probably help here where you can link to a folder/file from multiple locations. See this help center article that can help: https://help.dropbox.com/files-folders/share/shortcuts
Let me know if this solves your problem.
Thank you 🙂

Thank you for the link Youcef,
I like the idea of the shortcut but we don't want to store URLs. We're looking for a way to have a shortcut to a document or folder stored elsewhere in Dropbox. Somewhat the way that Gmail will allow you to label an email thread with multiple labels so that you can see it regardless of which label you look for it. Is there a way to put a shortcut to a folder in another folder? For example, I have a file for a company that we have contracts with. I would like to have the folder stored with the rest of our contracts but also a shortcut to that folder with our grant work since some of the contracts tie to our grant work. That way when I add a new contract my grants team would be able to see the update through the shortcut instead of having to add it multiple places and worry that we had missed updating all the folders.
Please let me know if that's possible and thank you for taking the time to reply,
Shira

Regarding Paper, I'd like to be able to have a tree structure for them and be able to store folders and others papers inside them.
