BOXにおいて、外部の一般の方からアンケート回答(添付ファイルありの場合となしの場合と両方)してもらうようなファイルリクエストを作成したいです。・ファイルリクエストを作成すると、ファイル添付が必須の「*」マークがどうしてもついてしまいま すが、必須でない、とする方法はありますでしょうか。・ファイルリクエストでできない場合は、他のBOXでの方法はありますでしょうか。
The owner has been laid off and I am co-owner of the folder. So basically I cannot reach the current owner and ask to transfer the ownership.I want his owner role to be transferred to me. There were 2 other people who were laid off and I was able to remove them from the collaborators of the box folder. I hope that did not delete any folders or files they have created. I saw submitting a ticket is an way but that option is not available in the website. Please help me with this.
please and thanks.
I recently went to add 3 users from our company to our new Box.com account, but those users already exist in another instance under the same email. What would be the best way to get them into our workspace as paid members and guests in the other pre-existing space?
Hi all -- I’ve built a very simple automation where when a file is uploaded to Folder A, a copy of of the file is sent to Folder B and users are notified. This works perfectly when the file is uploaded via the Web interface, but it fails when the file is uploaded via Box Drive. Any suggestions? thanks much! --rich
Accidents happen, but they don't have to result in permanent data loss. Box has introduced a highly requested Restore Deleted Users capability directly in the Admin Console, providing admins with a powerful safety net against accidental deletions.What You Need to KnowAdmins and co-admins with the Manage users permission can now restore deleted managed users within a 30-day window of deletion. Here is how the restoration works based on when the deletion occurred: Deleted 14 days ago or less: Restoring the user fully reactivates their account and automatically restores all of their owned files, folders, collaborations, shared links, and group memberships. Deleted 15 to 30 days ago: The user account is reactivated, but their owned content is not automatically restored. However, if the content is still in the user's Trash, they can easily recover it themselves after logging back in. Content Transferred during deletion: If the user's content was already transferred to another recipient
We are currently reviewing how we organize folders in Box and have encountered a challenge with shared folders.In one case, a user has a large number of folders (over 180) in their root directory, most of which were shared by other users. This makes navigation and organization difficult.Is it possible to group or consolidate shared folders into a single view or under a parent folder in the root directory?

Hello, I have been tasked by my supervisor to see if there was a way to create and maintain a calendar in pinyon, to be used by the district to add leave and event dates. I have no clue as to how to set one up or if this can be done, so any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I am currently the admin on our Box Business account on a trial, and I am trying to change the primary email/login associated with the account to my preferred business email address. However, whenever I attempt to add or switch to the new email address, Box gives me an error saying the email is invalid or unavailable for use. I tried using my business email address to sign up for the free trial, but it said that it was invalid. I proceeded to use my personal email account instead. I’d like assistance in setting my business email as the primary email address, and if it’s possible if it's linked to an old Box account.
Hi!I´m trying to configure a shareable link allowing anyone with the link to see the folder.But it only allow me to set the link to invited users. I have looked at my folder config, and it´s marked that only collaborators can access the links, and this checkbox is disabled, I can´t uncheck it. Then I have looked at my company configs, especially at share and content. All the settings are fine, allowing to anyone with the link to read and download.Can you help me to solve this? Thanks!
A new user no longer has their authenticator hooked up, is it possible for it to be reset?
I cannot access shared files. I was able to until a couple of weeks ago. What is the issue?
I was asked to send my logs and in the final message, it said to create a support case. Would be good to have a box with a form to fill out to create a support case - it was hard to find this screen.
Our admin user can’t promote my regular member user to Co-Admin or Admin and there seems to be no support email or ticket option? What is this product supposed to be about? Posting my issue in a community support forum to get a ticket opened is the worst enterprise product experience I have had in my professional career of 25 years in IT imho.
I have two Box accounts. How can I merge them all into one account.
Hello,We are user with enterprise ID [removed by moderator]Why is it indicated that I have 5 licensed seats while there is only 2 managed users and just 1 external. We took this account as a test account for an integration, hence a limited budget.
I have followed the documentation on how to silently install Box Tools for a user on our JAMF managed machines, and the install fails unless I run it through self service. I have the install policy triggering on user login, and have tried to add different things to the install script to delay execution to guarantee it’s not running too quickly, but no matter what I add to the script, the install fails unless it is run through Self Service. I was wondering if anyone has had success silently installing Box Drive through a JAMF policy, not user initiated through Self-Service? Thanks!
When provisioning users via Okta, we had one error for a specific user. That user was involved in Box testing for dev work, and that must’ve been in a different Enterprise.An error occurred while assigning this app.Automatic provisioning of user XXXX XXXX to app Box failed: Could not create new user. 409 - User with the specified login already exists When manually trying to add the user, I see “Cannot invite user who belongs to a different enterprise” and cannot save. How can we merge or close the duplicate user so that the user can be created in our Enterprise?
My employee originally set up the Box Account. I need to change the Admin user
Our company has never required the use of an authenticator. One person in our company, a co-admin, is being asked to enter in their six digit authenticator code or use the app. Any idea why this request is suddenly appearing? I already confirmed the two step authenticator step is disabled. Thank you.
