I have a Box account through my employer.  They allow an employee to save personal files to Box and I am a co-owner of the files with the employer.  Can you copy the files from the employee Box account to a newly created Box account without  downloading them locally and then uploading them to the new account?

👋 Hi ​@GilF, welcome to the Box Community!

 

To transfer files from an old Box account to a new one, the current file owner can invite the user of the new account as a collaborator, and then transfer ownership of the content to that user.


Note: If you are the owner of the new Box account and are already collaborating on the files as a Co-owner, the current owner can simply update your permissions and assign you as the new Owner.
