Hi,
Is BOX able to open Excel online with shareable link set to "People with the link" and edit without logging in? It says no sign-in required. However, it's asking to sign in to edit. I'm able to do editing without signing in for OneDrive. Please see the images below.
This function needs to work without signing in. Please help.
Hi Eddie,
Welcome to the Box Community!
There is no way to achieve your desired outcome here since using Shared links generally give others read- only access to a file in Box.
If you want other people to be able to edit the file, you will need to invite them to collaborate and grant them an "Editor" access. Inviting others to collaborate will require them to login to Box so they would to sign up for one if they do not have an account yet.
One important thing to note: the Office Online integration requires that if you are an enterprise Box user, you must have a business Office 365 account to use this integration. If you are a free Box user, you can use the integration without a Microsoft Office Online account.
You can learn more about the Office Online integration in this article: Box and Office Online
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm an enterprise Box user. Do you have feature request? This function has its usage for the manufacturing environment. We have shared computers running 24/7 and operators are logging in data. Those logbooks need to be opened without logging in for editing. OneDrive can do that.
