If an external user is invited to view a project folder, can the external user see a list of other collaborators for that folder?

We would like to invite an external user to a specific folder and prevent them from seeing who else has been given access to that same folder. Is this possible?

  Hi Kevin, 

  Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

  Owners and Co-Owners of folders have the ability to "hide collaborators". With this enabled, collaborators with "Editor" access and below will not be able to see the names of the other collaborators in the folder (Co-Owners will be able to see all collaborators in the folder). When hidden, the word "Someone" will replace their name whenever necessary to maintain anonymity.

  To hide collaborators:

  1. Right-click the folder (or click the ellipsis (...)) to open the More Options menu.
  2. Click Settings to open Folder Settings.
  3. In the Privacy section, check the box next to Hide collaborators and their activity from non-owners.

  For more details, you can visit this article.

  Thanks for posting!
