- You already know how to share…files and folders from Box,…but I can use the sharing features in Box…from Microsoft Office.…For example, if I'd like to share this file,…I can simply go backstage,…choose share,…share from box.…It gives me a link URL.…I can set an access level.…Anyone with a link,…people in the folder that this file is in,…people in your company,…or I can turn off sharing…by removing the link.…
If I click advanced,…I can allow downloading…or turn this off and only allow previewing.…And I can set a specific expiration date for the link…as long as I have an enterprise account.…I can't do this in the personal version, for example.…If I want to send this link to someone,…I can simply email it right here…and it will fire up my local default email client,…which in this case would be Microsoft Outlook,…so that I could send this link directly to someone.…
If, like me, you spend a fair amount of time…working in Microsoft Office,…I think that you also will appreciate…how easy it is to be able to share files…with other users without needing…
