iOS Dropbox Sidebar Integration Not Working

I’ve had an issue with Dropbox on my iPad for as long as I’ve used both. I’m currently running 16.1.1.

The issue is when selecting Dropbox from the sidebar to attach or open a file from another app, it does not connect. It will work briefly after a restart.

Anyone else have this issue or a solution?

iPad Pro, 12.9-inch, 6th Gen, Wi-Fi

Try deleting the Dropbox App from your iPad - and then perform a forced-restart of the iPad before attempting to reinstall Dropbox.

After restarting, reinstall Dropbox, sign-in to the Dropbox account, then reintegrate DropBox within the Files App.
