Brief description

File exchange via e-mail

BOKUbox is a service for all employees at BOKU. Students cannot create BOKUboxes on their own.

BOKUbox is the perfect alternative to email attachments.

How it works

You place the files you want to share with others in a "box" on the BOKUbox server and simply send the link to the box via email. By clicking on the link, the files can be opened and downloaded. 
BOKUbox can also be configured so that other people can upload files to the box, which are then available to you as the creator of the box.

Advantages BOKUbox

  • can be used for large files (up to 15 GB)
  • files are stored on a server inside BOKU
  • acces can be limited to persons with a BOKU account
  • you get a notification when someone accessed files

Tips

  • JavaScript and cookies must be enabled in your web browser.
  • You cannot upload folder structures; only files are allowed. 
    If you need to preserve the folder structure, please use the BOKUdrive service, or create a ZIP file of the folder structure.
  • BOKUbox is intended for short-term storage for data exchange and is not intended for long-term or permanent storage.
