1. Box Web Sort (NAME and UPDATED) should INCLUDE Bookmarks

   Currently, sorting the content of a Box folder sorts the content for all but Bookmarks, then shows sorted Bookmarks below the other content - this happens for Sort by NAME and Sort by UPDATED.

   Users might reasonably expect that subfolders might be sorted first, and all other documents and bookmarks be sorted secondly - similarly to Windows File Explorer (which does this, where shortcuts are treated as documents and sorted along with other documents)

   I believe the reason that this may be happening is that [Mssrs Box] has omitted to record any modification made to bookmarks (yes, the name of a bookmark can be amended, therefore that modified date should be recorded in the bookmark's details/properties)

   It should therefore be either a) possible to have a user-level setting that enables any sorts to include all document types (including/excluding selectable filetypes), or b) Box records the modified date for bookmarks, and then allows the Sort by NAME and Sort by UPDATED to treat all filetypes the same and give 'one' result

2. Improve Move operation to offer choices when destination folder already has file of same name

   Currently, if a number of files are selected to move to another location, if the destination location already has filename(s), Box simply advises that the moves for those files has 'Failed', and lists then 'already exists in the folder '....'

   Box should instead, like other products, offer a pop-up window, indicating the filenames, locations, dates last modified, (and additionally, if any files are signed), with the option for user to select/unselect file(s) to overwrite or ignore. Filenames selected/ticked would then be moved, together with other files where no match was found.

   To simply offer no choice, leaves the user knowing that the destination has version(s) of the files in source location, and on completion, has no indication of which files are possible duplicates

4. Enable users to select alternative applications to open files with in Account Settings\Integrations, other than MS office - such as for imag

   The application used to open some filetypes is 'hard-wired'. Users are not offered option to select the application 'to open with'. For example, images can only be opened in MS Paint when opened from Box on Web.

   Box should either A) offer the option to select an application to open with (for applications where viewer shows content, or B) should refer to the PC/laptop's Settings\Default apps and use that application

   For example, Box displays a preview of an image (jpg/png) selected, but when Open button selected, only MS Paint is offered to open the file. The world has moved on since MS Paint..... the default application for images should better be MS Photos if installed, which Microsoft says is "seamlessly woven into the fabric of Windows 11"

   But, ideally, for any application that Box is able to preview, it should be possible to open the file in the application that is set as default in Windows Settings

5. Preview Accuracy

   I understand that preview currently can not guarantee perfect accuracy and failing perfecting it which is the ideal solution, we'd like to be able to use MSFT online with read-only privileges. This would enable users with read-only access to still see the content displayed correctly whilst not being able to make changes or download.

7. Request improvement so that users who do not have output permission do not display the download button for Content Insight activities

   For users who cannot create a folder in the root folder in a closed environment, pressing the "Download" button on the Content Insights activity will result in the error message "Sorry, the report could not be generated. Please try again." .
   If the download button is displayed, users who do not have the output authority will mistakenly think that they can download the report, and error messages will appear and the number of inquiries to the administrator will increase.
   Therefore, we would like to see improvements.

   ＜出力権限のないユーザーにコンテンツインサイトのアクティビティのダウンロードボタンを表示させないよう改善を希望＞
   クローズド環境でルートフォルダにフォルダを作成できないユーザーの場合、コンテンツインサイトのアクティビティの「ダウンロード」ボタンを押すと、「レポートを生成できませんでした。後でもう一度やり直してください。」というエラーが表示されます。
   ダウンロードボタンが存在することで、出力権限がないユーザーもダウンロードできると勘違いしてしまい、エラーが表示され管理者への問い合わせが増えるため、出力権限がないユーザーにはコンテンツインサイトのアクティビティのダウンロードボタンを表示させないように改善を希望します。

8. Ability to create Powerpoint presentation directly from a template

   Our company has a template that we should use to create PowerPoint presentations. But there is no way to directly create a powerpoint from a template in Box. The templates can either be saved on OneDrive (which beats the purpose of using Box) or on desktop app (which doesn't sync with Box). Currently I have a few workarounds like copy/edit an existing file or create one on desktop and then save the file on Box. In the second option, you have to click on each folder to find the destination folder (which can be many layers deep). However, if I can easily search the destination folder, that would also make it easier to save files created on the desktop app.
   Any suggestions/ideas?

9. Collaborator files from Box Drive not showing up on Box.com

   Ever since we updated our systems to macOS Ventura we've encountered many issues with Box Drive, now we are not seeing files from other collaborators that they report to have synced showing up on other peoples Drive or on Box.com at all. Box Drive has become unreliable lately, and users are being forced to manually upload files via desktop to ensure their files sync. Please fix!

10. Updating versions from Box Drive seems to be critically broken

    Saving over files in box drive used to update cloud with a version, it seems this is being ignored, and cannot be trusted when checking if this update is committed to the cloud. Things have gone seriously wrong with Box Drive integration every since macOS Ventura upgrade.

13. Box Drive Moving a Folder Off of Drive Fully Deletes it From Box for Mac FPE Users, Folder Lock API Enhancements

    For PC Users on Drive (and historically for Mac users), when you move a folder from Box Drive onto your Desktop, it simply makes a copy of that folder and leaves the original in Box.
    However, for Mac Users on the new FPE version of Box Drive, if they move a folder from Drive onto the Desktop, it fully deletes the folder from Box.
    For example, I am an Editor on a Marketing Folder that's owned by the IT Service Account and shared with hundreds of colleagues. I accidentally move this folder from Box Drive onto my desktop (easy mistake to make). Now this folder has been deleted from everyone's Box account. I realize my mistake and place this folder back onto Box. Now I am the owner of the folder and it isn't shared with anyone else.
    I understand that this is a limitation on the Apple side, however this is extremely painful for customers and has lead to a lot of confusion and data loss.

    Originally, I thought the the Folder Lock API could be used to put locks on large company folders so that they aren't accidentally deleted. However, upon further research the folder lock API isn't sufficient. First, the Folder Lock API doesn't waterfall down so you need to apply it to EVERY folder. Second, the Folder Lock API only locks the individual folder and not the files within. So I can still accidentally delete files within the locked folder. Last, the Folder Lock API experience on Drive differs from the Web. On Drive if I'm the folder Owner, then I cannot delete the folder. However, if I'm a folder editor then if I move the folder, it allows me to move it off of Drive and just removes me as a collaborator. On the Web, editors and co-owners don't even see the delete button as an option!

14. Need Permission level between Viewer/Uploader and Editor

    Viewer/Uploader is good, but, not good enough for all use cases; and Editor is too much--especially for external collaborators.

    External collaborators need to be able to fix problems they accidentally create (e.g. uploading the wrong file) or wanting to change the name of a folder when they realize that the current name may be confusing (who hasn't done that?).

    I agree with others' comments that there needs to be a permissions level between Viewer/Uploader and Editor. I can see at least four possible solutions:

    1) Allow collaborators to rename a folder/file. This could help with the accidental upload as well since they could add some text to the file/folder name to reflect that it needs to be discarded (e.g., _DISCARD) to make it obvious for clean up later. This adds more maintenance on the editor, but, would be better than nothing.

    2) Allow the ability to 'Move' (not delete) a file/folder (say, into an Archived or Discarded folder where external collaborators can move folders/files they created in error.

    3) Allow them to mark something as 'discard' (maybe a toggle) that automatically sorts them to the top or bottom for maintenance; or, could automatically put these files/folders into a secondary folder, called DISCARDED (similar to DELETE, but, the editor would have to actually delete them from the DISCARDED folder (or they can auto delete at some timeframe). At least they'd be out of the way and the editor can easily look in there to see what is there. It would prevent accidental deletions as external collaborators should be able to recover items from the DISCARDED folder.

    4) Give the admins the ability to create a customized role where they can add capabilities beginning with some permission level. For example, I can start with Viewer/Uploader and create Viewer/Uploader Plus, which has all the Viewer/Uploader permissions PLUS what you want to add, in my case, Move and/or Rename files/folders.

    Basically, Viewer/Uploader is good, but, not enough for all use cases. And, Editor is WAY too much--especially for external collaborators.

    Thank you for considering!

15. Logging in to Box from a shared link should not redirect to home

    With the current iteration of Box, when you follow a shared link while not logged in, the only way to log in is to click "Go to My Account" which directs you to your home page on your Box Account. This requires re-following the link again to get to the shared item as a logged in user. This adds several additional clicks to the simple task of following a shared link from an internal email regarding new comments on an item, for example.

    This was not the case in the past, where there was a "Log In to My Account" button that would log you in and redirect back to the page you were on previously. I'm not sure why that functionality was changed to this far inferior version. I am unable to think up a use case where a user is on any page on Box while not logged in and would want to log in only to be directed to the home page rather than the page they were on which required them to log in in the first place.

17. Shortcut for creating code block

    It would be a great improvement to be able to create the code blocks while typing with keyboard shortcuts (or short-words). Quite standard across editors is for example the triple backtick (```).
    I see it already works for numbered lists (you just need to type "1. ") or quote by typing "> ".

19. Collaboration Report - Add Last Accessed Column

    Box Admin frequently runs reports on all external collaborators who they work with and wants to remove external collaborators from files that they haven't accessed in awhile. Wants to be able to run a report that filters to all external collaborators and allows you to see the files that they are collaborated on AND the last date that they accessed those files. This will help the admin determine if an external collaborator can be removed from a file. The collaborator report allows you to do most of this. However, the Collaborator report is missing a "last accessed" column. The request is to add "Last Accessed" as a column to the Collaborations Report.

    It would be great to see the following enhancements made to the Edit User Access permissions section of the User page; specifically the 'Select folders this user can access' section:
    1) Allow for columns to be Expanded to see the entire folder name
    2) Include a sort option to these columns in order to sort by folder name, owner, file size, or Access level.
