    Hi CocoJN,

    Welcome to the Box Community! I'm happy to help.

    May I know if have the file/folder shared in order for the collaborator to preview and receive notifications?

    I'm not seeing any shared folders in the account. 

    I suggest that you check this links from our Box Product Support about sharing contents and notifications.

    Hi AJ,

    I have not changed any settings to what I was doing previously when it worked perfectly. 

    I am not sharing these files with "collaborators", I am just letting anyone I send the file to, to preview it. They are not collaborating or editing the file, so I am a bit confused by what you mean by sharing? I am just letting them view only. As said I never changed any settings to what i was doing previously when it worked. 

    Please advise

    thankyou

    Also just confirming I checked my shared settings and all folders are being shared, so can you advise if there is an issue. 

    Thanks

    Hi there,

    I'm still not receiving email notifications when a file has been previewed. I have tried everything, changing email, resetting the notification status to default or overriding and still nothing. That was pretty much the reason I am using box, if there is no solution, I will have to find another alternative. If you can please advise as this was working perfectly till a week or so.

    Thanks
