We’re having an intermittent issue with the integration between user’s Box accounts an NetSuite. “There was an issue with the Box SuiteApp. Please refresh and try again. If the problem persists...” None of us are sure why it’s happening because it happens so randomly. 

When I try to use Box AI to query content in a Box Hub, I get the message:“This content is currently unavailable for AI. Please check back later.”

Hi everyone, We’ve explored options to be able to prevent any user (even co-owners) from accidentally Moving or Deleting certain critical root folders within Box. Right now the only option I have found is to use the Folder Lock endpoint via the Box API, however this is not very accessible to non-developers and we need our business users to be able to enable and remove these locks as needed. Has anyone found a way to manage these Folder Locks in a more user friendly way via the Box UI? Thanks!

Since it might be challenging to educate all users on using the Web UI, it could be easier to deploy only Box Drive. Would that work?

Hi there!I want to run a report to JUST see The owners and co-owners of folders in the Box and the people who have access to those folders and their respective permission levels, not individual documents. When I’ve run previous reports, they’ve been the  very large and unwieldy, making it difficult for someone else in my organization to view.I need an easier way to get a list of owners or permissions at the folder level in Box, without having to sift through a large number of records. What’s the best way to do this?

👉 Box Hubs are intelligent portals designed to securely curate, organize, and share content, no matter what file type, or where it lives.Note: Box Hubs is currently available in beta and is available in Enterprise plans and above. We’re thrilled to announce the upcoming update for Box Hubs <Beta> : sharing Box Hubs with your external collaborators. This enhancement is designed to make teamwork even more seamless and effective. When you’re ready to share a Hub, you can add external collaborators to view the Hub.I’ve summarized below a few FAQs regarding this next update:  How to identify if Hub has external collaborators: A Hub with a gray globe icon 🌐 or "globe + external" label indicates it has external collaborators.   Why is there a Globe Icon next to my Hub name: The globe icon signifies that the Hub includes at least one external collaborator. Can external users see my content in the Hub: External collaborators can view Hub content unless Shield classifications block t

Hi there! I’m hoping to audit users to ensure that everyone is on Box Drive instead of Box Sync, we’ve been trying to change all our users over to ensure they’re on Box Drive and more up to date!Is there a way they can monitor this or pull a report on this in Box? 

I am new to Box.I singn up as developer user and set up a customized app with OAuth2.0 and JWT authentication.After making project [ box-java-sdk-samples/box-appusers-java-server-sample at master · box/box-java-sdk-samples · GitHub]  run locally,  I created an App User and a folder named Test Folder and a file named test.txt simultaneously.But the created folder and file are not shown in https://app.box.com/folder/0.Why? and how to see the uploaded files in console？

One of the most important 1st steps when starting out with Box is planning your folder structure. Checkout this article which covers the following points.  Here are some questions to consider before designing your Box folder structure:Who moves, owns, and maintains the content? What root level folders make sense for your org? This is typically based on the departments, regions, or groups using Box. Does your organization prefer to give users the ability to create and manage their own top-level folders? Or does your organization prefer to own (and control) all root level folders? Do your Admins and co-admins need full access to users' content? Are different levels of access needed for users, or are groups appropriate? Are there any particular security needs around any of your content? Folder Structure Basics:There are two basic Box folder structures to choose from: open folder taxonomy and closed folder taxonomy. The taxonomy you choose is largely based on your internal security protoco

 Something I often go over with end users is how to make our shared links a little bit more secure.So, in this video I’ll demonstrate how you can add a password or an expiry date to your shared links with just a few clicks. This is a great feature for adding that extra layer of security when you share something.Let me know if you have any other questions in the comments!

Is there any way for us to make it easier for users to distinguish between personal folders and departmental folders?

💡Understanding how collaboration and shared links features work ensures you manage access effectively.This quick guide summarizes the difference between collaboration invites and shared links which would help you choose the best method that fits your needs:Collaboration:Invites individuals or external users to a file or folder Requires a Box account to access file or folder as a collaborator Allows users to view, edit, upload/download, and receive updates Ideal for long-term projects and detailed interactionShared Links:Provides a unique URL for access to specific files or folders No Box account needed and users will not count towards seats used Users get “read-only” access and won’t be able to make changes to your files Customizable permissions and security settings Best for sharing content with internal or external users without editing rightsYou may also visit these articles for more details:Collaboration FAQsShared Links FAQs

I send the public link to specific people. I would like them to be able to comment on a particular upload but recently learned that they are no longer able to do this. Is there a setting for this or are people with the public link no longer able to comment?  Thank you.

When will CrowdStrike integration with Box be available in GA?

Could you share the steps for setting up a Hub in Box? Thank you - 

Hello Box Community - I have recently been apart of a team testing a Docusign integration into Box and we ran into a roadblock. When attempting to configure the integration, we wanted to connect the two platforms with a CoAdmin service account vs our Admin account. We noticed that even with the CoAdmin & Admin account had the same level of access/permissions, Box’s folder structure would not populate when attempting to make the connection on the Docusign side. We ended up manually entering the desired landing spot (ex. “Folder Name/Subfolder Name/Executed Document”) and the executed document routed to the correct folder. Has anyone else successfully integrated DocuSign & Box with a CoAdmin account, and if so, were you able to get Box’s folder structure to populate when creating an automated “action” on the Docusign side? Thank you!Chris

I am using BOX for Salesforce, and I would like to use the default "Set Template Folder" flow to set up a template.By default, the flow is executed when a record is created, and BOX folders are created for records that do not require them, just like other records.I would like to change this so that the BOX folder is created when the "Create Folder" button is clicked, instead of when the record is created. How can I do this? I am new to using BOX and Salesforce, so I would appreciate it if you could provide detailed instructions.
