How can I either Remove Box AI from my toolbar at the right or at least move it so that it is not defaulted to the top and forcing me to click on comments for every file. I get it, AI is your new fancy gizmo, but it’s utterly useless for me and my team. Box is a storage solution first and foremost, don’t force me to use the AI tool.

Hello--title says it all. Trying to figure out what my largest files are in my organization’s entire Box account. Is there a way to sort so that I can see my largest files at the top?

Hi,I am moving to a different company who also uses box. My account of box will be deactivated as I will not longer get access to the email.Is there a way to transfer all the files and folders in my previous company to my account of the new company? Thank you!

I’m trying to change some of my employee’s email addresses to our new domain. I’ve followed steps I’ve seen here, but it gives me an error that the new email address is already linked to a Box account. I can’t see any place that the email address is linked. Where should I look? What can I do to give the employee access to that account?

 私は管理者です。 I’ｍ admin. 退職者のアカウントを管理者画面で削除し、私に転送する指示をしました。I deleted the account of employees who had left the company via the administrator screen and instructed to transfer the files to me. ところが、一部のファイルがBOXで見当たりません。However, I can't find some file in the box. 復元方法を教えてください。Please tell me how to restore it.

Need to purge email address that was used in a trial account so that we can use it in a paid account.

Hi there,I use box.com for uploading and storing Program’s Self-Study Guides and Site Visitor Templates (stored within a sub-folder). When I share the folders with Site Visitors, I share the entire Program’s box folder using the share link. Sometimes I have difficulties so I just add the person as a co-owner. I’ve had the issue before today, but I have a site visitor who created a free account. When she logins and views the folder, the sub-folder of Site Visitors Templates is grey and when she clicks on the Self-Study Guide PDF, it just shows the PDF page that she can’t view it and needs to download it. It is also doing the same thing for all other PDFs in the folder and sub-folder. I made her a co-owner and is still having this issue.  I had her log out of the account, and once she did the folder was no longer grey but she still couldn’t get the Self-Study Guide to open or download. Again, doing the same thing for all other PDFs in the folder and sub-folder. I’

Hello, BOX Community Usage environment: iPadCommunication: No SIM I take it offline via wifi at the office, and view the offline files when I'm on the goFrom a security standpoint, I'm trying to determine whether I can identify the extent of information leakage in the event of losing it.I thought I could identify it from the history, butit seems that taking it offline doesn't leave a record in the history,but only when the file is opened.Is there any good way to do this?

I am a Box & O365 Admin. I’m trying to migrate data from SharePoint to Box and I would like to preserve the file/folder creation/modify date stamp. I have tried dragging and dropping from the Mac finder, I’ve tried using Box Shuttle and I’ve tried using an FTP client. None of those options allow me to preserve the date, they all migrate with the date/time of upload. I did some researching and found information on CloudFastPath (by Box Shuttle), it says it’s Box’s recommended tool for enterprise migrations. When I go to that page the site times out as if it may be a dead link. Can you tell me CloudFastPath is still available and if it’s still recommended by Box? Or does anyone have another way I could accomplish preserving file/folder dates while migrating?

I cannot access to the folder which was invited by another user.I asked him to invite me three times, but I could not see the folder.Please tell me how to fix it.

We've implemented custom Terms of Service (ToS) acceptance in our tenant. I’ve accepted the ToS under both my admin account and our service-level account, which owns the target Box directory.In the Box Admin Console > Content > Shuttle, I'm configuring a migration job to move data from an external SharePoint directory into a Box folder (owned by the service account). The SharePoint connector was added successfully, and I can browse its contents. However, when I try to map the SharePoint source to the Box target folder, I get a toast error:User must accept custom terms of service before action can be taken.I've opened a support ticket, but the delay is blocking a time-sensitive backup task.Has anyone seen this before or found a workaround?

Looking a template or ideas on a Box SOP

I need to change the name of the company to our parent company. How do I do this? 

We send out batches of documents for signature. When a signor doesn’t want to sign any of the documents in the batch, it declines the whole batch and we have to set it all up again. Is there a way to set it up so that an approver can remove a document they don’t want to sign, or just decline that one document, and the rest goes through? 

is it possible to see who the creator of a shared link was? And if possible, how can I see this for a specific folder/file?

Our company is currently utilizing Box under a monthly subscription and is in the trial phase of implementing the service. We have been in the process of migrating data, and to further validate data migration and other aspects, we are considering upgrading to a higher-tier plan and increasing the number of users.We have a campaign currently applied to our Business organization, which offers a significant discount. We would like to explore the possibility of leveraging this campaign period for our validation purposes.In this context, we have the following questions:License Cancellation and Plan DowngradeIs it possible to temporarily increase the number of licenses or upgrade to a higher-tier plan during the campaign period for testing, and subsequently decrease the number of licenses or downgrade the plan to an appropriate level after understanding our actual use cases?Estimated Processing TimeIf license cancellation or plan downgrade is

Is it possible to provide access to a User to a parent-level folder with 4 sub-folders, but only have the User be able to see/interact with 3 of the sub-folders?  That is - can we block or restrict User access to sub-folders within an approved parent folder? Example:Firm has several folders for internal collaboration: 2025 > Clients, 2025>Documents, 2025>Firm Financials.If a User has access to the “2025” level,Can I give access to a User to the Clients folder, but then limit which clients are visible?Can I give access to a User to the Documents folder, but restrict which files/folders are visible?Can I restrict access to the Firm Financials folder entirely?

Get ready for the next generation of Box Drive, now built on a cutting-edge technology stack for Windows! This new version is packed with a host of improvements, delivering enhanced functionality, greater stability, and a smoother user experience. Here are just a few of the exciting features and upgrades you can look forward to: Folder Redirection: Folder redirection allows you to seamlessly sync root folders from their local hard drive directly into Box, providing a more integrated experience. With this feature, users can easily change the location of a known folder to a new destination, either manually or through Group Policy. For example, the Documents folder—typically stored on a local drive—can be redirected to Box Drive, making it easy to backup and manage files stored on a user local hard drive. ARM Device Support: Microsoft and hardware manufacturers are heavily investing in ARM-based devices for Windows lapt
