I seem to remember there was an "Add Collaborators" link in the list of Folder Collaborators, and that link is no longer there.  I can find a Manage Collaborators, but there's nothing there to add Collaborators.  Can I only add Collaborators when a Folder is Created?

I am using Box online.

    Hi there, 

    Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

    You can invite collaborators in your file/folder using the following instructions. 

    1. Open the Share window. To do this, in your Box files view, hover over the row of the file or folder you wish to share.
    2. On the right, click Share.

    3. The Share window opens.

    4. In the Share window, under Invite People, click Add names or email addresses.
    5. Type a collaborator's name or email address.
      • As you type, Box anticipates your intended recipient and lists corresponding email addresses.  You can select the recipient you want, or continue typing the full email address.
      • When typing full email addresses, separate recipients by a horizontal space.
    6. Click the Invite as drop-down menu. Box displays a list of roles.
    7. Click the role you wish to assign to the collaborator.
    8. (Optional) In the Message field, type a message of up to 750 characters for the collaborator.
    9. Click Send.
