User Details reports provide a range of data about every user in your organization (name, emails, groups, collaboration permissions, and so on). This includes identifying whether and how many of the users in your organization are unmanaged. More information on running the User Details report.
Managed users, of course, are your “official” Box users, people with licensed Box accounts that belong to your enterprise and who are subject to your organization’s security and compliance policies. Unmanaged users, however, use unpaid personal Box accounts to collaborate on your company-owned content. Although they are within your organization’s managed domain, they do not belong to your Box enterprise; their Box accounts are unlicensed. Most important, unmanaged users increase your security and compliance risk because their accounts are not constrained by your enterprise's Box security policies.
With the help of the User Details report, you can identify your unmanaged users and close this security gap by inviting them to become managed users. Then after you do that, you may wish to remove any unwanted domains to which any unmanaged users belonged.
The User Details report does not specifically call out external users. External users don’t belong to your enterprise (that is, they are not employees or in-house contractors) but do collaborate on content owned by managed users. External users could be either managed or unmanaged.
Notes
- Only Admins and Co-admins can run a User Details report. Group Admins cannot run this report.
- You can also get a user report by navigating to Users & Groups > Managed Users tab and clicking Download Report. However, we recommend generating this and all other reports from the Reports page (Admin Console > Reports > Create Report), where you can customize the report output.
You must define filters for the User Details report before you can run it.
