Admin and End User forums

Can the administrator of a Box account access all the files within the Box Workspace they manage? I am currently considering downloading all the files that exist in the Box Workspace.

There are four licenses in use. One user has actually left the company and deleted them, so I think there are three licenses left. I would like to bring in another user and transfer the licenses. Is this possible? If not, would it be possible to resolve this by releasing one license and adding a new one?

We know how quickly your Box Drive can fill up with files and folders, especially when you’re collaborating across multiple projects. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a new way to stay organized: the ability to hide files and folders in Box Drive! 🗂️ What does this mean for you? Declutter your workspace: Curate what appears in Finder (Mac) or File Explorer (Windows) so you only see what matters most. Safe & secure: Hidden items remain in your Box account, fully preserved and always accessible from Box.com. Searchable & available: Even if hidden, your files are still searchable in Box Drive. Personalized control: Hiding is personal and device-specific—it doesn’t delete content, change permissions, or affect what your collaborators see.  This feature lets you str

I am the account admin and have logged in as the user, searched folders / files as well as their trash. Per the end user the folders disappeared in the last week (or at least that is when it was first observed).

I would like this free trail canceled ASAP.  The directions to cancel a trial do not work.  

Hello,Somehow, our organization set up two admin accounts. One of these admins owns some of our end users, and the other admin account owns the other end users.How can I transfer ownership of users from one administrator account to a different administrator  so that only one admin owns all users?

I am trying to add user and I have seats available. However, Box wants to charge me everytime I add a user even though I have seats available. What is the fix here? 

I signed up for a Box trial to create a demo for my consulting client, who is looking for a new content management platform. I specifically wanted to showcase how workflows can be automated using Box AI. However, Box AI is not enabled for my trial and I can’t create a demo of the solution. I filled out the form to request access to Box AI, but I don’t know if it will go through. If I can’t demo the AI capabilities, I won’t be able to include Box into the available solutions for my clients problem.

I'm sharing a box drive with a friend,I'm the only one who cannot delete or rename files or folders, and I can only add files.When viewed on the web, I don't see a menu for deleting files at all, and even in the desktop client, files revert back to their original state after being deleted or renamed.How can I get things back to normal?

Hi, How to make my Microsoft word file that can be edited without logging in to Box account? If I created the sharing link, then I can open the link anywhere and edit the file or the person that i share the link can edit the file without logging in? Any  help on this? Thank you

My employee originally set up the Box Account. I need to change the Admin user

I'm trying to add people to my enterprise account, but it's telling me all three seats are already in use. When I check the user list—both internal and external—no one is actually listed. I also keep getting errors when trying to invite users manually, or I'm prompted to pay for additional seats even though there shouldn’t be anyone occupying the existing ones.

Hi there, I have a question: how can I reduce the seats?

Hi, For one of our employees, he recieved an email stating that his payment method for Box was declined and it came from a [removed by moderator] email address. However, it still seemed like a phishing email, so we looked into it further and it was sent from an AWS IP Address instead of a Box Domain IP address.So I wanted to see if it was possible to talk to somebody from the Box Security Team to see if they could verify this email.

I signed up for box.com because I thought I would be sharing all my data with my team. One team member has uploaded a lot of data but apparently it is not visible by everyone.  We need to all have access to the same data as different departments should be able to post files and then share between themselves. This is a key reason I purchased and have setup multiple users on my plan. How do I solve this and get my team back to work? I am on the business plan. Thanks in advance,

Hello,I just created a box suscription and I would like to add my colleague as co-admin, but it’s not possible I have this error (unable to save your changes, please try again) without any further explnation.ThanksDavid

I just created an enterprise account, but I can’t make a payment or access pro features. This prevents me from doing my work or joining my team. I haven't received any response to my support tickets. Although a charge was made to my bank account, I haven't received any email confirmation regarding my account or its status. Please, I need urgent assistance and someone to speak with.

Hello everyone!I am pleased to share that all Unmanaged users (regardless of collaboration status) can now be seen and repatriated directly from the admin console. Instructions are available here. With this update, we created a comprehensive support article that has additional scope for setup and guidance. Admins can now see all unmanaged users in their admin console, and can repatriate them directly into their accounts. This will:Improve the security posture of your account Provide more clarity on user status Streamline the process of bringing unmanag

Are there any limitations in using shared links for non-Box users?I have created a document with about 800 shared links in Box. I am a small user in the free area, number of data is just above 6GB devided over >800 files in about 10 folders. This database is built in about 5 years. The shared links are for the files, permissions for people with the link, they can read and download.Up till last week it worked fine, but suddenly downloads do not work anymore. Not for myself when I am not logged in not for people from Australia, England and France...to mention a few.The people who use it are for instance Facebook users with no Box account.
