Box Team Folders

The purpose of Team Folders is to allow for business continuity when a user’s affiliation with UIC expires. Typically when a user’s affiliation with UIC expires all folders and files they own become unavailable to all collaborators.

Features

  • Every Team Folder is appointed a steward as a primary contact and co-stewards as secondary contacts. If you add a UIC co-owner to a Team Folder they will automatically become a co-steward in our system.
  • Technology Solutions will automatically contact all co-stewards prior to the primary steward’s affiliation expiration date and ask one of them to become the new primary steward. Note: our system does not allow primary or co-stewardship to be held by a non-UIC user, but you can still make them a co-owner of a Team Folder.
  • Note that it is not possible to determine the primary steward of a Team Folder from within Box – that information is stored internally by Technology Solutions.
