ONLYOFFICE app for Dropbox

June 3, 2026 · View on GitHub

The ONLYOFFICE app for Dropbox allows users to open, view, and edit office files directly within their Dropbox workspace using ONLYOFFICE online editors.

▶️ How it works

With this integration, Dropbox users can work on their office documents without leaving Dropbox:

  1. Click the three-dots menu (⋮) to open the file context menu.
  2. Select Open in → ONLYOFFICE Docs.
  3. The selected document, spreadsheet, or presentation will open in a new browser tab using the corresponding ONLYOFFICE editor in full-screen mode.

✍️ Note: This app uses a pre-configured ONLYOFFICE Docs Cloud tenant, so there's no need for manual configuration.

⚙️ Installation guide

Easily connect ONLYOFFICE to your Dropbox account by following these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Dropbox account.
  2. Follow the link.
  3. Grant the requested permissions to link your Dropbox with ONLYOFFICE Docs.

Once connected, you can start opening and editing supported files directly from your Dropbox interface.

⚠️ Tip: To manage or disconnect the integration later, visit Settings → Apps in your Dropbox account and select Disconnect.
