How do I assign only a subfolder in the main folder to a user? I don't want the user to access the rest of the folders in the main. Only specific subfolders from the main folder.
Question
Hello
Hi Abigail,
Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!
Permission levels on Box follow a "waterfall" design in which individuals have access only to the folder they are invited into and any subfolders beneath it.
If you wish to invite a user only to specific subfolders, do not invite the user on the parent folder, you simply need to locate subfolder, then click the "Share" button of that folder, and enter the email address of the person you wish to invite as a collaborator.
