Hello,

I am trying to ensure that a few folders are accessible to some colleagues that do not have a Box login. They need to have editing access to the entire folder, but the present sharing settings only allow them to download and view (see screenshot).

Is there a way to allow editing access as well that I'm missing?

    Hi Rebecca, 

    Welcome to Box Community! 

    To allow editing permission in shared links, you may want to verify if it's confirgured in Enterprise Setings.

    To access shared link settings from an Admin or Co-Admin account:

    1. From your admin console, go to Enterprise Settings > Content and Sharing tab.
    2. Scroll down to the Shared Links section.
    3. Configure how shared links are allowed and used. See the Shared Links section in Enterprise Settings: Content & Sharing Tab for details.
    4. Click Save.

    In addition to this, if they are anonymous users, they:

    • will be required to log into Box to edit the content
    • will be able to view and download the content only without logging into Box

    Hope it helps! Have a safe weekend and thanks for posting,
