Can I disband my Dropbox team in order to join another team?

archadmin

Dropbox recently flagged our work accounts as being used for business and forced us to create work teams. (This is particularly confusing as we already WERE business accounts with a shared team folder, but I digress…) In trying to figure out what to do, I accidentally converted my work account (using my work email) into a new team, rather than joining the company-admin'd team. Can I safely disband the team I created in order for the company account to invite me to join the official team? Will my folders be deleted? Is there a correct order of operations I should follow here?

Thanks!

Hey @archadmin, thanks for posting your question to our Community!

Indeed, if you're a team admin on one team, you'd need to disband said team in order to join a new one.

Here's how you can do it and some info on what will happen to your team and files once you disband it.

Once you're back on an individual account, you'll be able to join the other team.

Hopefully the article has all the answers to your questions, but if you need anything else, let me know.

Cheers!
