I can't access a shared folder due to a strong password requirement. I signed in with Google SSO so I do not have a passcode. When I click to create a passcode, I get an error message that says there was a problem changing your passcode. 

Hi Elsa,


Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 


If you haven't already, please proceed and reset your password using the steps below. 


  1. Visit https://app.box.com/reset and enter the email address associated with your Box account.

  2. Check your email, you will receive an email with a link to reset your password.

    • Password reset links sent via email expire 3 hours after they are sent. If you need a new link after your current one has expired, visit https://app.box.com/reset to have another link emailed to you.

    • If you do not receive an email from Box for this password reset, check to see if your Box account is associated with that specific email address or another email address.

    • Also, check your spam folder in your email client for this email.

Hope it works!
