idgard® app for Microsoft Teams: Create temporary Boxes
Temporary Box
If the function to create Boxes is inactive, please contact the
administrator of your idgard® account. The administrator can assign you the
required permissions. The “Create Box” button is only active for users that
have the appropriate permission. Temporary Boxes, including all Box contents,
are automatically deleted by the system after a certain period of time (x days
after their creation). The time of deletion can be changed by the Box owner,
provided that the maximum lifetime for new temporary Boxes is not exceeded. In the Box overview,
temporary Boxes are indicated by the clock icon 
to the left of the Box name.

- Optionally, you can select the following Box properties: “Backup active,” “Recycle bin,” or “Limit access period.” You can change these features later.
- Click on “Next” again.
- Optionally, you can preset permissions for new Box members. You can change the preset permissions at any time.
