Hello,


I signed up via Google SSO and when I try to change my password (I currently have no password) to access a file that requires a strong password, I repeatedly get an error message. This occurs on both Safari and Chrome.


I am unable to set up my password. Please help. Thank you.

Hi Abdiel, 


Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 


You can create a password for your account through password reset. Please follow 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.

Thanks for posting!
