Hi, see my message of two months ago. Can you please help out??
Hi Leonie,
Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist!
You may see an "Anonymous" user while running a report which shows when anyone who wasn't logged into Box took an action on a Box item. This can occur for various reasons:
- Shared Links: Users do not need to be logged into Box to access a shared link. Thus you may see previews, uploads, and downloads by "Anonymous". This typically relates to shared link activity.
- Email Upload: Users do not need to be logged into Box to upload via email. As a result, you may see "Anonymous" making many uploads.
- Embed Widget: Users do not need to be logged into Box to preview an embed widget on a website. Thus, you may see "Anonymous" previews.
- API integration: you may see other "Anonymous" actions if you have an API integration that performs actions in your account.
If you are curious for more details around an "Anonymous" action, run a User Activity Report for that action type and select the same date range.
Thanks for posting!
