Can I export all files/folders and account details/settings from my Dropbox account?

I want to export my entire account, including all files (including file attributes, metadata) and account details (including logins, settings, payments). Is this possible?

While syncing the files is the best and easiest option, if you're comfortable with command line or terminal commands you can also use dbxcli to download files directly from Dropbox.
