# Using Box.com to Share Large Files ## Creating an account Create an account at box.com with your city email address. *(That account should be a full license, any account with the city email address will be flagged to bill.)* ### Verifying funding CTM will send an email within a week or so asking for funding numbers or they will delete the account. ### Sharing Best Practice * Share files with people can be done so that you can share in a read only mode or edit mode. * Only people who need to edit files needs a full license. * You need to grant rights to who you want to share/edit the file. ### Editing Shared Files - Internally If someone else in the city wants to edit that file in the Box, they will have to have a paid account also. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
