I need auto-confirmation via email from a web-based Box account confirming that my file upload was received. Can this be implemented by the account user requesting the upload?

Right now, after uploading, all the end users get is a generic "upload completed" page.

    Hi there, 

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

    Different users collaborating in a folder can set their own specific folder-level email notifications for certain actions taken on the folder they joined (if allowed by the folder owner). However, please be advised that you cannot trigger email notifications to yourself for actions you triggered such as upload.
     
    If users are uploading in a folder that is shared with others, collaborators can set and enable the notification in the folder settings to receive notification of activities such as upload, download, delete, & comment by others in that folder. For details on how to set this notification, please take a look at this article for details.: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696014-Understanding-Box-Folder-Settings#emailnotifications 
     
    Let me know if you have any questions, and I will help you!
