Once you've started to invite collaborators to your folder, they will show up in the Collaborators section.
After you've invited a collaborator to your folder, your collaborator will receive an email that looks like the one below.
If the person has a UCSF Box account, the link will direct them to log in via MyAccess. If the person is an external collaborator and does not have a Box account, he or she will need to create a free Box account by following these instructions.
