I tried to reassign the ownership of a box folder, and when there was an error, I decided to go in and delete all collaborators who were no longer with the department. In doing this, I had clicked on the next person to delete, and apparently deleted myself. I was the owner of the file. SO, one- where did it go? and two, can I regain ownership so that I can transfer the folder appropriately?
Question
Removed self as owner/collaborator accidentally
Hi Kristin,
Welcome to the Box Community!
If you've accidentally removed yourself from a Collaborative folder, you will need to reach out to the owner you transfer the ownership of the folder to and request that they re-invite you to that folder again.
