Shared Links
The Shared Links section is where you configure shared link settings and permissions for content owned by managed users.Note: The permission you see on the file/folder list view and the permission from within a Box Note file can be different.This is dependent on the Shared Link Permission setting**.** The Files permission type is used when on the file/folder list view. The Box Notes permission type is used within Box Note files.For example, if Files has the permission of Can view only and Box Notes has the permission of Can view and edit:
- When on the file/folder list view, selecting Share Link for the Box Note will display Can view only. The option Can edit is not available
- After clicking into the same Box Note, selecting Share then Get link allows the user to select Can****edit
Custom Shared Links
Custom URLs enable people to customize the URLs for created shared links. This applies to content you want to be readily accessible to large groups of people (externally or internally) using a customized URL that is easy to remember. If you make this link available as people with the link, the linked folder or file is publicly accessible. Custom URLs are appropriate for public-facing materials such as product documentation or marketing materials and are not intended for the secure sharing of sensitive content.Collaborating on Content
This section is where you select the roles/permissions you want to allow folder owners to choose from when collaborating on items and define other collaboration settingsCanvas
Box Canvas is a visual collaboration and whiteboarding tool that enables teams to collaborate visually using sticky notes, shapes, text input, image uploads, and more.Watermarking
Watermarking places a semi-transparent overlay of the current viewer’s name and time of access across a document’s contents to deter unauthorized sharing. When your Box users choose to add a watermark to shared files, you can determine whether the watermarks on all files will be rasterized, or whether watermarks will be vector-based or rasterized, depending on the file type.Content Creation
This section allows you to restrict certain types of content creation. Higher restrictions will provide admins greater control over the content and structure. However, users will be more restricted in creating content, which may impact the amount of collaboration.Folder Insights
Folder Insights allow folder owners to track activity in folders they own.Hubs
