Box Organization Folders
In addition to personal Box storage space, students, faculty and staff may request 25 GB of group storage space for holding group-related content. Organization folders are useful when sharing among members of a student organization or work group, research or project team, or department. The shared storage space appears to each member as a folder within an individual CMU Box account.
Features
- Content is stored in a group-owned Box folder simplifying transfer of content should a member leave the group or the University.
- Primary and secondary contacts of the Organization Folder are co-owners who set the permissions and invite group members as collaborators.
- Members access the Organization Folder through their individual Box account; appears as another folder.
- Ability to be the primary or secondary contact for unlimited Organization Folders.
- 25 GB of storage space by default.
- Accessible as long as one co-owner exists within the folder. If a co-owner does not exist for one year, the folder and its content are permanently deleted.
- Leverage supported Box features and optional apps for more powerful collaboration.
Note: CMU Sponsored Accounts are not eligible for CMU Box accounts, therefore, they are not able to collaborate in a Box Organization Folder.
