Dropbox StaffIntegrating Dropbox Paper with Dropbox
Paper is a Dropbox product, but what's the relationship between Paper and Dropbox itself? We're here to tell you! Here are the basics...
Can I access my Paper docs from Dropbox?
You can...
My thoughts exactly. Seems like Paper would be a great integration; but not if I can't get to it from my dropbox account. I'm migrating everything out of paper.

Super UserThe integration is much tighter now with Paper 2020 paper docs live inside your dropbox folder and you can order them into subfolders etc. Finally it all makes sense : )
lukeyo Paper 2020 isn't universal for all users, Dropbox in their wisdom, thought it would be better to rollout the upgrade to various users rather than a system wide upgrade. Dropbox even have allowed new customers access to te new software before existing customers. I just don't get their logic, and it certiainly isn't a customer first business model.
Thought it might be fun and a. little nostalgic to revisit this article from Dropbox circa 2019.

Nothing in the article has come to pass. NOTHING. Yet the dev team roll out seemingly meaningless "upgrades" like "Automated folder" Who determined that was more pressing that integrating Dropbox and Paper?
Since Q 4 2021 and Q1 2022 I've had 3 clients tell me they will no longer use Dropbox/Paper to collaborate. That it's just too cumbersome and unintuitive. And I can't disagree with them one bit. At this pace, 2022 will be my last year subscribing to Dropbox. Can't believe I'd ever write that.Is anyone from Dropbox paying attention to this thread at all? Has Dropbox 2020 become Dropbox 2022?
Agreed, for having a near bulletproof cloud storage solotuion that works so seamlessly with your desktop--just an incredible product, it's almost incomprehensible some of the seriously self-defeating policy decisions these people make.
Still waiting...

People, absolutely understand the frustrating wait for Paper '2020'.
I can confirm that DB does read these posts and is working on getting a workable solution.
That's all I can report for now but I just didn't want more crickets on this thread - speak again soon hopefully
Where can we find this feature?

Hi Bill
I thought it was rolled out this year to all new paper users, but probably not then.
"Paper 2020 will allow you to continue to create, edit, and share Paper docs the same as you did before. We’re working hard to release Paper 2020 to all users in the near future."
When you do go onto it, your *new* paper docs will suddenly appear in the root of your DB folder, from where you can organise them at will.
Ok very cool. This is exactly what I was hoping for with Paper. Thanks for the heads-up.
