  2. Display Visual Indicator if a File is added to a Hub

    Similar to the visual display showing if content is added to a collection, could there be a visual indicator to show if a file has been added to a Hub?

    This icon could help serve as a reminder to users that the file they're editing is published to a Hub(s).

  3. Freeing up space with Box Sync

    I would like the ability to save the Box sync folder onto a different drive on my PC. Currently, it's on the C drive, but it fills up FAST, so it would be incredibly beneficial for me to save it to another drive on it.

    Barring that, I'd like the ability to free up space on my Box folder so that it's only on my machine when I need it.

  5. Change the seconds to rewind/forward in video preview

    As a movie dubbing translator, I need a functionality to rewind/forward 3 seconds. Currently only 5/10 seconds rewind/forward functionality is provided. Since translation for dubbing transcript requires precise timing, we rewind countless times. 5 seconds rewind is too long for a line. It may sound small, but it makes difference to translate hours of movies.

  6. Be able to Block specific filetypes from being uploaded to Box

    Allow for an organization-wide policy to block specific filetypes from being uploaded to Box, or at least prevent them from being uploaded/moved to specific folders with specific classifications.

  7. Ability for users with viewer privileges to open files in desktop applications

    In BoxWeb, users with viewer privileges have the "Open" button grayed out and cannot deploy files on the desktop.
    However, BoxDrive allows users to open Office files as "read-only" even if they are viewers.

    With BoxDrive, when a file with viewer privileges is opened, it is extracted in the Office application, but with BoxWeb, if you want to view the file using the Office application, you need to download the file, which is time-consuming and cumbersome.
    I would like to see an improvement so that the file can be extracted directly in Office without downloading.
    I would like to see…

  9. Outlook attach from box sort preference

    When using the 'Attach from Box ' feature in Outlook. I always want to see most recent items because it makes it easy to attach a link for a file that I have just worked on. I have to change how files are sorted every time to Name to Date: Newest to Oldest.

  10. link name same as file name

    When I share a link to a document, I always edit the link to match the file name. It is easier to know what was share, especially after the link expires.

  13. Assign user group on send a notification recipients field

    Assigned Task>approval Task>Assignee(s)
    Can be assign "any group.

    on the other hand,
    If the task is rejected >Send a notification
    Recipients :can not be Assign group.

    for example, a group members include over 50 person, it hard to assigned one by one. So it happy to assign group on send a notification recipients field.

  15. Regarding the display format of metadata reports

    Is it not possible to set the output format arbitrarily when generating reports from metadata, rather than being limited to JSON format?
    I would also like to have commas inserted into numeric fields of metadata to format them with thousands separators.

    (in Japanese)
    【メタデータレポートの表示形式について】

    メタデータでレポートを出力した際に、JSON形式ではなく表示形式を任意に設定できないのか。
    また、メタデータの数値フィールドの桁数にカンマを入れてほしい。

  16. Unify move and copy behavior between BoxDrive and the Web browser.

    There is a detrimental effect caused by the fact that BoxDrive and the Web browser have different specifications for the operation of "move and copy," which is a basic operation of Box (it is actually upload and download).
    In particular, the fact that Shield's Access Policy and Classification Labels "maintain the original labels when moved and copied" is a major reason to use that feature.
    However, BoxDrive does not maintain labels, which does not lead to enhanced security or control of usage.
    Since there are many users who use BoxDrive as their main application, we would like to see the…

  17. Ability to schedule sign request for a specific date and time

    Currently you cannot schedule the sign request if you want to send to the signer at a particular time or date. For instance: if your signer is located in another time zone and the sender wants the signer to see the sign request at a particular time (morning 9 am maybe) - the sender does not have the ability to do so. Sender should have the ability to schedule the sign request.

  19. Add additional_info data to all events to include service_id

    Here are the events missing this information:

    • RENAME
    • UPLOAD
    • ITEM_CREATE
    • ITEM_UPLOAD
    • ITEM_MOVE
    • ITEM_TRASH
    • ITEM_RENAME
    • COLLABORATION_ACCEPT
    • COLLABORATION_EXPIRATION
    • COLLABORATION_INVITE
    • COLLABORATION_REMOVE
    • METADATAINSTANCECREATE
    • METADATAINSTANCEUPDATE
    • METADATATEMPLATECREATE
    • METADATATEMPLATEUPDATE
    • COMMENT_CREATE
    • COMMENT_DELETE
    • METADATAINSTANCEDELETE
    • METADATATEMPLATEDELETE
    • COLLABORATIONROLECHANGE
    • GROUPADDITEM
    • GROUPADDUSER
    • GROUPREMOVEITEM

  20. Online shortcuts won't be visible on BOX (desktop version)

    To let all people in my organization access my folder without affecting anything or editing anything, i decided to make shortcuts for folders.
    i've made a shortcuts for these folders, which are they working properly on BOX online, but it won't be visible on the desktop version of BOX.
    so there is an area of enhancement there to let all the folder even if it's shortcut to be visible or previewed on the offline version of BOX
