Password updates
Login passwords currerntly enforce unnecessary format restrictions that are hindering the use of password generators. Characters < > cannot be used, and there also is a requiement to include at least two digits. Most hashing password generators use all printable characters (as they should), and ensure only the occurrence, but not the quantity, of character classes, i.e. 1 of each printable chartacter classes (uppercase, lowercase, numeric, special).
Suggestion: allowing all printable characters and only requiring a minimum of 1 character from each intended class (occirrence only) would make Box login passwords compliant with the vast majority of hashing password generators…

Create content "frames" in Canvas
Add a "frame" option as a new structural element distinct from a shape. Frames would allow you to move all the content inside it, and when you zoom out on a board, the caption of the frames should display so you can easily see all the frames and what they're about.

Lock content areas
Add the ability for the board owner to lock some content so that people cannot move it by accident. It helps when collaborating on a board with multiple users.

Prevent items with restricted movement from being moved on the Box Drive display
If "Do not allow ownership of content to be transfered to external users" is enabled in the tenant settings, content cannot be moved to external tenants by users other than the administrator.
However, when content is moved in Box Drive, although it is not actually moved, it appears on the display as if it is stored in the destination folder, and it does not return to the original folder until the user logs out/logs back in to Box Drive.
Content whose movement is restricted by Classification Policies will immediately return to the folder in which it was originally stored, both…

Have a better way to show 'Full File Paths' for 'subfolders' in the web-app
Since people can be invited to folders that have the 'same name' it can be hard to identify in your 'All Files' view which folder is in which account.
Since you don't want to accidentally drop files in a folder that is shared with people outside your organization or vice-versa, it would be helpful to have a better way to identify which folder is from which account / directory structure.
For now the recommended guidance is to have the full file path of you directory structure in the sub folders so personnel can see which sub folders are from which…

Allow Users to 'Remove' all files from their BOX Drive as a right-click command
It would be nice, instead of logging out of BOX Drive on my personal computer to 'remove' all files on my personal device (so anything that was cached or downloaded). Instead of having to 'log out' of the BOX drive app.

Allow the "Folder" column to be expandable when adding/modifying managed users in BOX
When adding users or modifying a managed user, the 'Folders' column when you are adding folders is not expandable. You also cannot really widen the Administration window for Users and Groups in the Admin console.
1) Can we make the Users and Groups section in the admin console wider? Or just as wide as my browser window?
2) Can you make the 'Folders' column when managing or editing a user expandable so I can see the folder full name?

Bring back previous method of highlighting files
Having to click on the checkbox to the right of files is FAR less intuitive than being able to click anywhere on the body of the file "line." It was much easier and more efficient to be able to just click and shift/ctrl click to highlight multiple files.

A dedicated notifications page to allow viewing of past notifications
I would like a page where all notifications live historically. Right now I am forced to use a small dropdown which is clumsy and not searchable.
I use notifications to find files that I was added to in the past but not recently enough to appear on recents page.
the ipad app has a page similar to what I am talking about except it doesnt go back far enough

Allow file locking when MS Office Coauthoring is enabled.
Prior to MS Office Coauthoring, I could lock a file in Box, with would allow me to edit it normally, but it would be read only for anyone else.
Since coauthoring, I can not open and edit files that I have locked. Support has let me know that this is just a limitation of coauthoring.
The workaround is to move the file to a folder where only I have editing access, but that would require moving the file around to different locations.
Would love the ability to temporarily lock files again. And if this isn't going to be (or can't…

Column with type of update and badge if unseen by me
I would like to see a column or some other means to see the type of update made to the file vs current view just showing the time and account that updated. Example: comment added, new version uploaded, edited, etc.
It would be even more valuable to understand if I have seen the update, similar to "updated" icon on recents view page.
Currently I have to reconcile by the updated time if the update is new to me which often typically requires going in to preview area to track changes manually, which can be difficult and tedious and sometimes impossible…

Box Sign making a copy of the file should be optional
Currently when using an already uploaded file to make a Box Sign request, it creates a copy of the file and adds a (1) after the name. For example "Document.pdf" becomes "Document(1).pdf", with both copies being included in the folder.
This occurs in the use case where I have created a folder to share files & also requiring some of the files to be signed.
Please make this an option to either create a copy or overwrite the existing file so that only one copy of the remains in the folder.

Feature to retrieve a list of apps added to a managed user account
Currently there is no ability for tenant administrators to manage the apps that users are adding.
At a given point in time, we request the ability to get a list of app addition statuses in order to understand which apps are being added by managed users.(Japanese)

Improvement of the interval at which the version history of BoxNotes is automatically saved
As the support article below states, "While you're working in Box Notes, we automatically save your changes as a new version roughly every 5 minutes or after 5 minutes of inactivity. "
However, if you continue to operate, it will only update the "current version" and will not automatically save a new version every 5 minutes.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043692834-Box-Notes%E3%81%AE%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A7%E3%83%B3%E5%B1%A5%E6%AD%B4%E3%81%AE%E8%BF%BD%E8%B7%A1
We would like to improve the function so that the version will be updated every 5 minutes even if the operation is being performed continuously.
In addition, since there is information that would be troublesome if it disappears due to an operation error,…14 votes -

Option to Remove "Upgrade Plan" Button
I'm a business customer with a paid subscription. Please give me an option to remove the "Upgrade Plan" button. It negatively impacts UX and takes up valuable real estate at the top of every page. It also subtly suggests that my current purchase is less valuable/important than a more expensive plan.

For the Anomalous Download Alerts, I would like it to apply to external users too so that if they are invited to our tenant's folder and they start downloading a lot I get an alert.
