Link Permission Issues
I created a new folder in a open-access box folder, but need this new folder to have strict permissions (only those with the link can access it and upload to it). However when sharing this link to test it, you cannot access the contents without logging into box. How can we disable this so that you can access these files without a box login?

Hi Katie,
Welcome to the Box Community, I'm happy to help!
If you need to share this people to those that do not have a Box account or does not need Box login, you need to set the Shared link access to "People with the link".
- People with the link: 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.
For more information about the Box Shared link access, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697094-Creating-Shared-Links
