How to join a Dash team from an email invite

When an admin of a Dropbox Dash team account invites you to join their team, you’ll receive the invite by email. The process to join that team account is different depending on whether you have an existing Dropbox account or not. Click the tab below that best matches your experience.

If you don’t have an existing Dropbox account or if you’re joining the Dropbox Dash team with a different email address, you can join the Dash team account by doing the following:

Open the invite email and click Accept Invite.
Enter your email address.
Click ① (add) next to any apps you’d like to add to Dash, then click Continue.
Add the Dash extension to your browser, if you’d like, or click Skip.

You’ve successfully joined a Dropbox Dash team and can start exploring Dash.

If you already have a Dropbox account but want to join a Dash team account that does not include Dropbox access, you'll need to create a new account for your Dropbox content. You can still use your existing email address to join the Dash team.

Note: If you’re joining a Dash team account that includes Dropbox access, you won’t need to create a separate Dropbox account.

Open the invite email and click Accept Invite.
Enter your Dropbox account email and click Continue.
Review the information on the Next steps page, then click Continue.
Enter a new email and password to use with your Dropbox account, then click Agree and sign up.
Navigate to your email inbox and open the verification email.
Click Go to Dash to verify your new email address for Dropbox.
