Trying to password protect a shared link but I keep getting this notification: Certain settings may not be available for this item due to permissions.

I do have these files watermarked and we will share them with collaborators that are going to be Previewers only but I would still like to password protect it.  How can I do this and if I need to update settings please let me know which ones to modify.

Thanks in advance,

KA

  Hi KA, 

  Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

  Box enables you to apply passwords to shared links whose scope is People with the link.  When you add a password to such a shared link, anyone who follows the link must enter the password before accessing the file or folder. 

  Make sure that your shared link's access type is configured correctly. 

  Hope it helps!
