If your site administrator has enabled integrations for your Box account, you can start, schedule, and join Webex App Personal Room meetings with collaborators when sharing a Box file.

Start a Meeting

Share a document and invite the collaborators to start a live discussion, without even switching apps.

1

Sign in to Box.
2

Select a file you want to Start a Meeting for.

3

Click from the Sidebar.


 

Click Open Webex in the dialog box to launch the app.

4

Select Start a Meeting.

5

Invite All collaborators or select them individually from the list.


 

To add new collaborators by email, verify the correct permissions are defined in the following step.

Then, decide who can view the file in the space:

  • Anyone with the link—Anyone with the link can access the item and no Box account is required. For extra security, you can also set a password or expiration for the link, as well as restrict download and/or preview access for link viewers.

    Password-protected shared links are available to all paid Box User accounts.

  • People with your company—Only people who are managed on a Box account (Starter and above), or have an email address that matches a domain registered with Box for the account that created the link, can access the link. For example, if acme.com is a registered domain on your account, all managed account members with an email address ending in acme.com can access this type of link. People who do not match a domain listed on your account cannot access the link.
  • Invited people only—Only people invited to the folder or file can access the content. Collaborators already have access to their content, but can easily direct one another to a specific file or folder using the shared link.

 

You can set the link options on individual files and/or folders by the owner, across all owned content, or by the admin for the entire company. Also, verify that the setting you choose allows file access to the person with whom you are sharing it. Otherwise, your intended recipient receives an error when they click on the link.
