Add Dropbox to PowerPoint Online

When you launch PowerPoint Online, it opens Presentation Gallery that provides you with a list of recently opened PowerPoint documents, and Themes and Templates to start a new presentation. You can also click the Open from OneDrive option, highlighted in green within Figure 1 to navigate your OneDrive folders so as to locate a PowerPoint file to open within PowerPoint Online. Other than OneDrive, PowerPoint Online also supports Dropbox as a cloud alternative. In this tutorial, we will explore adding Dropbox to PowerPoint Online's Place locations:

1. Open the Presentation Gallery and click the Add a place option, highlighted in blue within Figure 1.
