Downloading an item means that you are saving a copy of it FROM your Box account TO an outside destination.
Although it may sometimes be necessary to download content from Box to your local device, it is recommended that you avoid doing this when possible. Downloading an item breaks the link between that item and Box. Changes that you make to the file will not be saved in Box, nor will any of Box's access rules be in place.
With that said,
1. Find the file/folder you’d like to download in your box account.
2. Move your mouse over the file so that the option buttons appear.
3. Click on the More Options button.
4. Select Download.
5. Depending on how you have your browser set up, the file will either automatically go into a folder you’ve selected or you can choose a destination from your computer’s file manager.
Uploading on Box
- Click the New button in the upper right corner of the page.
- Select File Upload or Folder Upload. A window will open.
- Navigate to the file or folder that you want to upload and select it.
- Click Open. The file/folder you selected will be imported into Box.
