Sharing Files With Protection: Potential investor
Answered
Hi-
I am building a data room and would like to show some documents to potential investors but not allow them to alter OR download any files.
Does anyone have best practice on how to share like that?
thanks

Hi Raja,
Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!
You may create a Shared link of those documents to share to your potential investors.
A shared link is a unique URL that gives the recipient to access a specific file or folder. With customizable permission levels, security settings, and a URL that’s easy to copy and paste, shared links can be used to send important content both internally and externally. Individuals accessing your content through a shared link get "read-only" access and won’t be able to make changes to your files.
When you create a Shared link, you can set the access type to "People with the link" which means 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. All passwords for open shared links require at least eight characters, and should contain at least one uppercase letter, number, or special character.
- To restrict downloading your files, you can disable the "Allow Download" in the link settings.
