Trying to add Box as a “save location” in Office for Mac, specifically in Word for Mac version 16.63.1

However, I get an error that tells me “disabled by administrator” as soon as I authenticate my Box credentials. I have a free Box account, there is no Administrator involved.

What is the solution to fix this so I can add Box as a save location in Word for Mac?

  Hi there, 

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

  Please be advised that Box integration with Office desktop applications is only available for computers running Windows.

  To learn more about Box for office, please take a look at this article: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044196433-Box-for-Office-Integrations#h_3538c863-1eb2-40f4-a46b-446d43333307 

  As an alternative, you may install Box Drive app instead which mirrors and gives access to all files/ folder that are in Box cloud into your desktop environment.

  Thanks for reaching out and if you have questions, please let us know and we will help you!

  Regards,

  The interesting part is that MICROSOFT OFFICE FOR MAC already has BOX as an online location.  Do you expect to be able to add BOX as an online location in the future? With all of your great programmers, I am making a wish to have this addresses and streamlined.

  Can we have an answer for this - I may reluctantly have to head back to Dropbox...
