Sync other account folders
Hi all,
I would like to know if it is possible to sync, or only download in my box account and cloud in read only mode, folders from other box's account.
I have my box account and my friend has his box account...
It's possible to download and have always sync a folder from my friend account directly to my box account?
Or it's only possible to have a link in my box cloud to my friend folder? In this last case I will not be advised if a single file is changed...
Thanks,
Stefano

Hi Stefano,
Welcome to the Box Community!
Please be advised that when using Box Sync, you can only sync folders that you own and those that you have been invited to collaborate with at least an "Editor" access.
If you want to sync a folder that is owned by your friend to your Box Sync folder, your friend needs to invite you in that folder with at least "Editor" collaborator permission.
Please take a look at these support article for more information:

Hi France,
thanks for your response...
Probably I haven't explained in detail my question: I have understood the box sync application and its possibilities...
My question is if it is possible to sync an external folder directly to my box account over the web... not on my pc...
I have my box account, my friend has his box account... it's possible to share a folder between us so we can see the same documents and file??
It is a simple sync between our accounts over your server...
Thanks a lot,
Stefano
