Solved

I’m an editor collaborating on a Box with a team. I recently accessed Box on my phone, and I accidentally performed an edit to a folder; however, I’m unsure what the edit/modification to the folder was. All I know is that Box acknowledges I was the last to update that folder. I don’t believe I deleted any files within the folder, as it doesn’t appear in my trash tab. The folder I’m referring to indicates that I was the last to update the folder, but when I open that folder, I don’t see the “Updated by [my name]” in the other files or subfolders integrated into the larger folder. Therefore, what other edits could I’ve made to the larger folder when I accessed Box on my phone that would register as an update to the folder?

I have a folder.I made a box relay to move files to another folder upon upload. How do I add a condition so that i only move files of a certain type (jpeg)? I can’t find any conditional logic.

I’d like to share links with clients so that only their email addresses can access the particular shared folder. I know this can be achieved by inviting them to be a collaborator, but I do not want to require these recipients to apply for a Box account. In other words, I’d like to “register” the users who are able to access a given folder, so that even if the email containing the link is maliciously intercepted, others cannot access the folder. Make sense?My concern is that only sending a link might not be secure.At this time, I only have a free account, so maybe that’s relevant.Thanks! -Ron

Hi A Client is trying to share a link with me to access and I keep getting the following message:  Can you work on the back end to grant me access? I can provide both links if that helps.  Thank you,N

Hi, I’m trying to make myself the owner of several folders. The previous owner has left the company. I am an Admin.Here’s what I tried: Login as the current owner via the Admin portal. I changed myself to the owner, but received the error ‘The new owner’s account does not have enough space for the transfer’, but I have unlimited storage. Under user settings I have confirmed that there is no limit set for users. My account is using 20.9 GB. Could someone please assist? Thanks.

Which Box Plan do I need to enable MFA for External Collaborators?

I have only uploaded 15GB of data, and my trash is completely empty. However, the system shows that I have exceeded my 20GB storage limit, and I am currently unable to upload any files.This kind of issue occurs frequently, and it is causing significant inconvenience.I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and provide a resolution as soon as possible.Thank you for your support.

We believe that a large number of email addresses are currently on the suppression list, and we would like to delete them via the Enterprise settings.However, the feature description states, "You can remove up to 10 emails per day from this list."Is there no way to delete more than 10 addresses at once? If there are 1,000 entries in the list, it would take 100 days to complete. The background is as follows: Users are being created via SCIM integration with Okta At the start of the new fiscal year, around 1,000 new users were created Before their mailboxes were created, user information was registered in Okta, resulting in account creation in Box as well As a result, it is assumed that all users have ended up on the suppression list   現在大量のメールアドレスが抑制リストに入っていると考えられる状況で、Enterprise設定からの削除を実施したいと考えています。しかし、機能説明の中で「このリストから1日に最大10件のメールアドレスを削除できます。」とあります。10件以上を一括で削除する方法は無いのでしょうか。リストに1000件いるとすると、100日かかってしまいます。経緯としては以下のとおりです。・OktaとSCIM連携によりユーザー作成している・新年度開始で新規ユーザーが1000件ほど作成された・メールボックスが作成される

Can someone ask Box when they are going to support the sync’ing of *.pst files?  

Dear Box Support Team,I hope this message finds you well.I heard during a user training that Box imposes a limit of 1 PB (petabyte) per user (owner). However, I could not find any mention of such a per‑user limit in the publicly available documentation.Could you please confirm the following:Is there a maximum storage allocation of 1 PB per user (owner) in Box?   If such a limit exists, could you kindly share the official documentation or specification that details this restriction?Thank you very much for your assistance.  Boxにおいて、1ユーザー（所有者）あたりの所有できるストレージ容量が最大1 PB（ペタバイト）までという話を聞きました。  しかし、公開されている公式ドキュメントではそのような所有者単位の1 PB制限について記載を確認できませんでした。そこで、以下についてご確認させていただけますでしょうか：・Boxのユーザー（所有者）あたりのストレージ容量上限は1 PBなのでしょうか？  ・そのような制限が存在する場合、該当する公式資料や仕様書をご教示いただけますと幸いです。

I`d appriciate it if you tell me how I can activate “Enterprise plan” for my collegues. I just payed for three users including mine, thinking let my two collegues who have free accounts use as well, but I have no idea to do it. It seems I have successed to get my account upgraded to the plan though.I know this is the very basic question but we all just started using BOX and are not used to it. Please tell me if this isn`t a proper way to asking this kind of question.

I can’t seem to be able to raise a support ticket yet I have a paid account. All I see when navigating to support is “Box Community’ as below. How do I raise a ticket? I have an urgent issue 

Hello,I changed the primary email addresses of our employees via the Box Admin Console.Most employees successfully received the verification emails and were able to verify their accounts. However, some employees did not receive the verification email. They only received a notification email stating that the primary email address had been changed by the administrator, but the verification email did not arrive.The employees who did not receive the verification emails are using the web version of Outlook and are working on Mac computers.Is there any possibility that emails are not being delivered on Macs, or are there any specific settings required?What we have tried/checked so far: Checked the spam/junk folder Confirmed that emails from notify.box.com are being received Resent the verification email I would appreciate it if you could advise me on how to resolve this issue. Thank you. Kou

I signed up for a Box Enterprise trial with my primary email. I am getting the helpful tip emails but the confirmation email never arrives. I have tried sending many times, and checked junk and quarantine. I can see from an Exchange message trace that this email is not getting to us.I was able to get around this my doing a password reset and now I can log in. However, for certain setting changes I am bring asked for a 2 step authentication code which is being sent by email, which I am also not receiving. Again no sign of it having arrived at our office tenant, so not spam or junk filtering on our end.As a result, I am unable to get this configured before we add more users.

My company has adopted BOX but can't add my existing account with my company email address to the company portal. I need help to get associated. Support said I have to open a ticket myself, but I only have access to the forum.

Most of the pages in Box Admin are showing unable to load such as User and Content tabs. Account/Billing and parts of Enterprise settings are visible. I tried different browser, computers, and networks, same error. Is this an ongoing issue?
