Help, I heard that Shield may be able to help me work around Box’s waterfall permissioning model.  Does anyone know if that’s true?

Hello!I receive the error message that 23 files are not syncing. I always avoid using special characters in the file names, so this should not be the issue. I have submitted the error logs through the Box Sync application. Are you able to find the logs? Can you find out what the problem is? Thankful for any help.Best wishes,Sebastian

Hi, I’ve been a fan of Box.com for years, as they have let me collaborate with my clients all times for past years and I greatly appreciate the wonderful app.  One issue I’ve been encountering for last year or two though, is that every time I upload newer version of the files and overwrite older files (with Adobe Lightroom, if that matters), the older versions of the same files keep coming back.  Let’s say the file was named photo1.JPEG, I overwrite it with newer version of photo1.JPEG - then the older version of the file I don’t want anymore, pops up as photo1-2.JPEG.  I can’t find any other way to get rid of this unless I go into the folder manually and delete them myself.  I don’t see it anywhere on the forums either.  Could someone help?  Thank you!

My company uses the Collaboration Links (from another company's Enterprise version of Box).Using our firewall function,- Allow "somecoop.*.box.com"- Block "*.app.box.com"I tried to select other companies that can access, but the personal/free version of Box is still accessible.I would like to block sign-in/access to the personal/free version of Box.Do you have any ideas? (Blocking specific URLs, etc.)

One aspect of maintaining security posture is ensuring users are updating their Box password periodically (especially if SSO is not enabled).  Is there a way to report on the last password change through Box reporting?

I want to create document placeholders in one of the sub folders , example inside a sub folder is document 1, document 2, document 3.

Whether you’re setting up your instance for the first time or perhaps knocking the cobwebs off your older admin structure, Box offers a number of ways to assign responsibilities and access for just the right need.Below are some of the quick hit details about the nuances between the different admin levels. I’m curious how different admins in different industries or Lines of Business divvy up their roles. Let’s discuss! Admin RoleThe Admin role has the highest level of authority and access within your enterprise. Only one managed user can be assigned the Admin role, although one or more managed users can be assigned co-admin roles. Admins can:Access the entire Box Admin Console (Business Plans and above) Assign Co-admins, group admins and define Co-admin access permissions Log in to any user’s account (Business Plus and above plans only) Configure account-wide settings for sharing, apps, notifications, security and more Run reports to monitor account activity Run reports to audit changes
