CTools Project Site Migration Day 1 — Using Box

How do I find my migrated resources in U-M Box?

If your CTools project site resources were migrated to U-M Box by ITS, you and all other participants in the CTools project site will receive an email saying you’ve been invited to collaborate on a folder. The email will contain a link to the folder in your U-M Box account. Your resources are in a U-M Box folder with the same name as your CTools project site. For example, a CTools project site called “My Project Site” will be called “CTools - My Project Site” in U-M Box.

Note: When resources are migrated to Box, permissions that were in place in CTools are automatically set up in Box. You can review the permissions in Box.

What can I do with U-M Box?

Collaboration

With Box, you can:

share files and folders
use Box Notes to create checklists and documents in Box that people can simultaneously edit and save (similar to Google Docs)
use Box Edit to open, edit and automatically save new versions of documents (Word, Excel, etc.) without having to download, open with the application, edit, and re-upload
assign tasks to participants, set due dates, and monitor progress
manage access permissions and policies
manage your notifications

Note: If your resources contain sensitive data, please review this information.
