    Hi Sarah, 

    Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!

    You may not have the necessary permission to make these actions in a collaborative content.

    You must be the Owner of the content or with collaboration permission such as Co-owner or Editor in a shared folder to be able to make changes such as delete and rename actions.

    You may need to reach out to the owner of the content and request if they can change your permission to Co-owner or Editor to be able to perform these actions.

    For details, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044196413-Understanding-Collaborator-Permission-Levels 

    Thanks for posting and please let me know if you have any question!
