Editing existing tag names
It would be helpful to edit an existing tag name, to make it more descriptive, and have that propagate to everything already tagged. For example, I would like to change a first-round tag of "Minutes" to something more descriptive, such as "Minutes Admin Meetings." Right now, I can simply create a new tag and retag all the appropriate items with the prior. HOWEVER, every time that begin to type the name of the new tag, the old not-used one will keep appearing.
If editing an existing name is too complicated, is there a way to delete an old unused tag…

restrict by file type at folder level
Would like the ability to restrict File Types at the folder level, (with Waterfall rule would be ok, but ability to break waterfall would be a bonus).
Currently we use Quarantine Policies to restrict .msg files in Box, but does not allow us to make exceptions by folder. (eg. to allow certain departments this ability, but block from others).4 votes -

Warning/Prompt before deleting items in Box Drive
This is to avoid users accidentally deleting content in Box Drive. Users sometimes delete items unintentionally and it's too late for them when they receive email notifications.

Add sender's email address to the "Mail All" collaborators functionality.
Currently when a notification is sent via email through "Mail All" collaborators function, it does not include an email to the person who created the notification. It would be beneficial to add the sender's email address to this notification process for documentation purposes and validation. When the creator does not receive the email, they are reliant on other parties to forward the notification, which is not efficient.

Add file path to macOS Box Drive search function
Since macOS Finder will not search Box Drive by filename correctly, the only real way to search for files is using Box Drives built-in search function. This will successfully find a file, but it does not show you the path in the folder tree. Could you please add the containing folder and path in the search results box? Ideally the user would also be able to open a finder window directly to that containing folder directly from a click in the search results box.
Thanks!

Collaborator invitation "accepted" email notification
Currently the default setting Account Settings > Sharing > Collaborating on Content is checked to automatically accept incoming collaboration invitations. I would like to request this setting be off by default as we've had many users ask why they receive an email immediately after inviting a collaborator and later found out that the person had never accepted the invite.
It would also be helpful if there was a Date Accepted column added to the Collaborators page that allows you to see when the collaborator accepted the invite. Currently there is only a Date Added column.
Thank you

I want to download all files returned from a search
I am searching for files spread through multiple folders and I want to download all the files that are the result of the search. The only way I've found is to keep scrolling down — again and again — until all the files are displayed, then select all and download.
But, there are a lot of resulting files and the scrolling is going on forever.
Is there a way to just have Box download all the files that fit a search?

MS Time Private Channel Integration
We love the MS Teams integration but need the ability on private teams with private channels to assign different default Box folders to each channel. Currently this is allowed only with public channels on a private team. We utilize private teams in MS Teams for our training cohorts and need the ability to have private channels for homework assignments and follow up with students. Thanks!

Easy way for co-owners to see the deletion operations of collaborators in a co-owned folder.
Currently, only the owner of the item and the user who deleted the item can see the deleted item from the Recycle Bin.
Users with co-owner rights will not be able to see/restore deleted items in folders that they co-own.
Co-owners are not authorised to output reports.In some cases, tenants who are managed by closed folders ask co-owners to manage the folders.
One of the key roles of the co-owners is likely to be to ensure that necessary items are not deleted by the collaborator.
We want an easy way for co-owners to see the deletion operations of collaborators…4 votes -
Visible Folder Tree Setting
Problem: users often have files/folders shared with them by collaborators, and the titles of these folders can be the same - e.g. 3 folders all named "Photos." Without clicking into these folder, you don't have context as to who owns it/where it came from.
Request: Allow folder owners to decide if they will allow folder tree visibility on their collaborated folders. This would provide context without giving direct access to content they should've have access to.
e.g. They can add Folder Visible on an upstream folder and they would see the folder but no content until they get to the…4 votes -

Workflow should be able to utilize metadata field to send notifications.
we have buyers as part of the metadata. Workflow should have a notification as an outcome and retrieve email or user info from metadata to send notifications for folder events.
We also have due date and status on the metadata, workflow should be able to check the date, status and sending overdue messages to the buyers.

About the shared link in the browser URL field.
About the shared link in the browser URL field.
I would like the displayed shared link address to be selectable below.
・Display up to the file or folder ID
・ Display ID and shared linkIf the shared link is also displayed, the collaborator will not be able to access the shared link when the shared link expires. If the display is up to the ID, the collaborator will have permanent access.

Setting tags for each folder
For example, I would like to see the setting inherited by a specific folder and its subfolders, similar to the "Override default settings for this folder and all subfolders" in the email notification in the folder settings.
In a tenant with many end users, tags can be disorganized.
For example, if you try to create a tag for December, some users may find that there are many ways to describe the month, and when they try to search for a tag, they may not be able to find the desired tag.
For this reason, many tenants restrict the creation of…4 votes -

Ability to view Box folders and files more clearly
Currently, when we look at a list of folders or files, we feel that they are displayed in a cluttered way.
This makes it difficult to find a particular item.
We manage and respond to items by grouping them by tags.We believe that the following features will make Box even more convenient for us to use in the future
・Assign any colour to the folders in the box
・Assign any colour to the tags in the Box
・The order of the tags in the Box can be rearranged by dragging.[Boxのフォルダやファイルを更に見やすくする機能]
フォルダやファイルを一覧で見た際に、雑多に表示されており、特定のアイテムを見つけるのが難しい。
現在は、タグによってグループ分けを行うことで対応している。今後以下の機能が増えることでより便利にBoxを利用できると考えています。
・Boxのフォルダに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグの順番をドラッグで並び替えられるようにして欲しい。4 votes -

Cursor leaves folder name field after creating new folder
I've found two bugs in the we-based box app. These have both been happening for a while now... several months at least.
First, when you create a new folder, you can no longer just start typing the name, as the cursor leaves the Folder Name field upon creation of a new folder. Having to click back in the field is a bit of a pain.
Second, often when I'm uploading something - particularly if it's hundreds of megabytes, or part of a larger upload, after finishing the list of uploads, it will begin uploading the list again. I've uploaded a…

Box Drive support for Tags (Windows)
We would like to be able to use tags in Box Drive in order to better sort/filter/search for specific information that is used company-wide (either the tags field in MS Office files or a Box-specific tag). I see several requests for this feature from Mac users, but not much reference for Windows users.
Thanks...
