With the Activity page, admins can monitor their team’s activity in Dropbox.
You can also generate activity reports to view a record of every event over a specific date range. Reports can be created for individual users or entire team accounts.
Note: This function is only available to certain types of admins.
The Content page allows certain types of admins to view, audit, create, and manage access to all team content.
You can also look at any team member’s member folders and any folders that you may not have access to as a non-admin Dropbox user.
By clicking Manage on any folder, admins can set who can access content, their permissions, and choose folder settings.
With the Groups page, team members can create lists of people who should have access to many of the same files and folders, which makes managing large groups of people much easier. Admins can ensure that the right team members have access to the right files and folders.
Under the Billing page, admins can add more licenses to their organization's Dropbox plan, update billing information, and review billing history.
Under the Settings page, certain types of admins can set team-wide settings on sharing, SSO or two-step verification, and more.
On the Security page, the team admin and security admin can set alert policies and be alerted to any suspicious activity. With security alerts, admins will receive email notifications whenever suspicious behavior, risky activity, and potential data leaks are detected.
Security alerts are available to teams on Dropbox Standard or Business who have purchased the Security add-on, and to teams on Dropbox Business Plus, Advanced, or Enterprise.

Activity logs are available in the admin console for certain admin roles of Dropbox teams. A team admin can see the team’s full activity, while other admins can only track the activity of a selected user.
Admins usually want to see their team’s activity to troubleshoot a problem or understand what happened and when. If a team member accidentally deleted a file, the admin can track the team’s activity to see when it happened and work to restore the file.
Once you’re logged into your account, go to the admin console and click Activity.
You can filter the results of the activity log, for example, by entering a date range to view the activity for a specific time period. You can also export a report of your entire team’s activity by clicking Create report and entering a date range.
The Activity page is the place where you can see a record of the actions taken by your team.
It helps admins see how often their team uses Dropbox, who’s using it, and for what. Admins can also use the Activity page to investigate and fix minor issues like accidental file deletions.
Each entry in the activity log shows some additional information about member actions. The entries show:
Date and time: Exact date and time that an action took place
Member: Member who took the action
Activity: Details of the action itself
Location: Location from which the user initiated the action and the IP address of the machine they were using
Once you’re logged into your account, go to the admin console and click Activity.
