I'm not sure I follow, but will share this observation in case it is 
helpful:

I use Dropbox on my Ubuntu machine, and my Dropbox directory just 
becomes a subdirectory of my home directory. That is, cd ~/Dropbox 
yields the directory containing files synchronised from dropbox.com 
through the program. Double-clicking on the system tray Dropbox icon 
opens the same directory in my file manager.

I have no experience with OneDrive.

HTH,
Greg.
