Ability to adjust document autosave sensitivity (if not, it makes version history obsolete )
Recently noticed our company document autosaves are soaking up all of our version histories. Box Drive is reading every time a document is edited and autosaved as a new version. Even if you are actively editing the document it still is reading all autosaves the document itself is doing. For Mac Office, this occurs about every minute and there's no way to adjust it. I remember Box Drive being able to know if the document was edited or not upon close or save. This allowed for our version history to go back several months instead of several hours. Very bad…

Highlight Text and Translate the word
Inside the preview, it would be great when I highlight a text in a file, it would automatically translate the word into a language thats is set on the browser. For example highlighting an English word and translating it into Japanese.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.

I would like to be able to change from a classification with a strict policy to a classification with a loose policy. The reverse should be
For the purpose of strictly protecting confidential information, we want to make it impossible to change from strict to loose permissions, even for users who have the authority to change classification labels. However, with the current Shield function, it is not possible to set the priority of changeability.
One possible way to achieve this is to allow users to set rankings for classifications or policies, and to limit the direction of the rankings.3 votesNot on the roadmap for FY25, will evaluate for FY26

Add the ability for previewer/uploader, viewer, and previewer to preview video files that contain watermarks.
Currently, due to the specifications in the following article, previewer/uploader, viewer, and previewer cannot preview watermark enabled video files from Box.
Box Notes, video, audio, flash, .msi, .exe, .zip, and 3D files do not support watermarking. Enabling this feature prevents previewer uploaders, viewers and previewers from viewing these file types.
Watermarking Files:

For company operations, when sharing video files with users outside the company, it is a rule to collaborate and share with users outside the company with previewer.

allow user to set view-only mode
Allow me to read a box document or folder in read-only mode. If I accidentally touch or slip with the mouse - I modify the folder/document. "UNDO" will only do a little bit - but in this case I KNOW I am only browsing a folder that I will be contributing to. It's a bit of a downer to see a document marked as modified today (last modification was a year ago by the document creator) because I missed the CTRL button and typed a "c" into the text. UNDO (CTRL-Z) fixed the doc - but now it looks like…

Inserting metadata tags for subject line and message fields within Relay
Within Relay, being able to dynamically populate the metadata fields within the email notifications.
An example use case is for lease renewal. We have a metadata template for the leases. One of the metadata fields is property name. One of the steps in the workflow would be to assign a task to execute the lease renewal for a specific property which is triggered by lease renewal date. When setting up the notification for the lease execution task assignment, right now the subject line is very generic and would say Action Required: Execute Lease Renewal - as a better user experience…

Box Drive Backup Controls
Please allow me to use Box Drive to backup files to the cloud (not sync them). Allow me to designate folders where I add files that are (a) added to the cloud and (b) removed from local storage. Allow me to choose when the removal happens (e.g. every night at midnight).

Setting up Box Edit to open in multiple applications
Currently, when editing a file in Box Edit, there is only one application based on the extension that can be opened on the desktop.
If you want to change the program selected by Box Edit, you need to change the registry value (HKEYCLASSESROOT\SystemFileAssociations).
However, depending on the user's environment, registry operations may be blocked by the administrator and cannot be circumvented in this way.Can you please develop a standard feature that allows multiple applications to be selected when opening a file in Box Edit?
This would greatly improve the efficiency of the work.現在Box Editでファイルを編集する際にデスクトップで開く事のできる拡張子に基づくアプリケーションは1つのみです。

Include device identification in Device Trust logs
We think it would be valuable to be able to identify a specific device failing Device Trust. Either MAC address or computer name would be useful. Computer name would be the preference.
This to positively identify the device end users are using to connect. As we were implementing Device Trust we ran into numerous situations where end users were connecting from multiple devices and not transparent with us that they were using multiple computers.3 votes -
Shared Link Unavailable Prompt
User believes that current 'shared link has been removed or is unavailable to you' page could be confusing to users that have access but are not logged in, and that the messaging should include a prompt to log in if user believes they have reached the page in error.

I am unable to email collaborators because there are more than 500 collaborators in the folder.
Need an option to be able to email collaborators in bulk, regardless of the number. The 500 limit is now forcing me to email collaborators individually.

Two factor authentication as standard for business customers
Two factor authentication is the standard for securing accounts. I was therefore surprised to learn that enforcing two factor authentication on the business subscription package is not an option. Requiring two factor authentication is only available on the top enterprise price plans.
This is disappointing, as it means businesses customers who use Box, their staff can bypass any requirement to use two factor authentication. It increases the risk of a breach of company data due to a bad password practices by an employee, like using the same password across many different services. Without two factor authentication the company data is…

Ability to turn off comment function
There is no way to turn off the Comment feature as a default setting. When using a touchscreen laptop, every touch designed to navigate triggers the comment function. This requires manually turning off the Comment function on every single document when using the touchscreen, functionally eliminating using the touchscreen as a viable UI. PLEASE either allow the Comment function to be turned off, or default to Flagging when a laptop touchscreen is detected.

drag-and-drop upload for attachments of rich text format emails
It would be nice to be able to upload attachments also on the rich text emails to Box by "drag-and-drop" so that Box users can share items by more Intuitive operation.
So far it's possible to do that for attachments on the text format email, but I would appreciate further functional improvement.
