I share with my clients public links to the quotes they request. I want to know if there is a way to receive a notification when someone opens one of those links?

Hi Jose, 

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

If you would like to be notified whenever someone 'Previews' the document or file that you shared, you can enabled the "Preview" option under the "Notifications" settings of the Folder where the file is located. 

Take a look at this article to learn more about this notification: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696014-Understanding-Box-Folder-Settings#emailnotifications 

Hope that helps! Thanks for reaching out and let us know how else we can assist you.

All the Best,
