All Dropbox Paper docs disappeared

I need immediate help! All of my Dropbox Paper documents are completely gone — missing without any trace!This is an urgent situation that is severely impacting my work. I have checked multiple devices — everything is gone

I rely heavily on these documents for critical work.

Please escalate this issue to your highest support level and respond ASAP. I need to know:

  1. What happened to my Paper docs?
  2. How can I recover them immediately?
  3. What steps are being taken to prevent this from happening again?

This is critical and time-sensitive. Please reply urgently!

Thank you.

  • Hey Sarawut Burapapat - thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    It sounds like you might have been recently migrated to the 2020 release of Dropbox Paper. Could you search your account for a folder called "Migrated Paper Docs" and let me know what you find? 

    As for missing Paper docs or files in the future, note that you can take a look at your events page to see what might  have happened and for more info, if needed.

    In any case, please keep us posted.

    Thank you for your quick response. I have found the “Migrated Paper Docs” folder as you suggested. Everything seems to be there.

    Appreciate your support!
