  2. Custom content preview setting , Render Mode as Shape

    In the 3D preview menu bar, I can manually set the desired value such as RenderMode as Shape. Need configuration in ui element or preview link API so that by default RenderMode - Shape is selected

  3. Display more text in search results

    I would like to have the paragraph or at least several lines on either side that contains the matched search term(s) displayed in search results. We have a significant number of documents that contain similar verbiage. Having more text from the document displayed in search results would allow users to identify relevant documents without having to open them. The API should also return the same amount of text.

  7. Improve the Level of Fidelity of Text Files Preview in Box's Web App

    Can Box please improve the level of fidelity of text files preview in Box's Web App? We have reports that are generated as text files, and these reports are formatted (with spaces) so the information is readable and consistent. Currently, our users have kept providing us with feed back that they are having a hard time using Box's file preview when looking at these reports because Box file preview does not keep the format they have, and as result these reports look messy and sometimes borderline unreadable. Most of our users just have opted to download these reports to open…

    <Regarding the watermarking feature for BoxNote, video and audio files

    We are aware that Box Notes, video, audio, Flash, .msi, .exe, .zip, and 3D files will not be available when using the digital watermarking feature.
    Currently, sensitive content is stored in a folder with a watermark applied, and users with previewer privileges are invited to view only. However, I am aware of the specification that if you create a BoxNote in a folder with watermark applied, it cannot be displayed in the Previewer.
    Since BoxNote is a Box product and a frequently used feature, we would like to ask for…

  9. About BoxSign completion email

    The email sent when BoxSign is completed includes the text "Recipients of this email can view and sign documents on your behalf." , so you can view it but not sign it. I would like you to correct this as it is inappropriate as a text for a completion email and may cause misunderstanding.

  11. Accurate File Count - Script Automation or Access

    As I've discussed with the BOX support team, BOX web interface does not display an accurate count of files. We upload thousands of files per day and when the count of files displayed by BOX is not accurate, we assume there was a network glitch and attempt to re-upload the thousands of files which results in unnecessary network bandwidth and computational resources.

    The BOX support team has access to a script they run to fix errors in the file count. Until the file count is accurately displayed in the web interface, it would be nice if BOX would automatically run…

  13. Progress Bar when uploading and restoring

    Is there any progress bar or any visible information where we can know the progress of tasks being run? For example, I wanted to recover a 200gb folder. It took a long time to find the data that needed to be restored. This is a similar thing when uploading files onto Box onto the web app. There is a progress bar but when a user goes to a new page it disappears and it is still running in the background

  14. Remove the cautionary message at the bottom of file request page

    At the bottom of file request link, the following message is displayed:

    "Before submitting, please make sure that you trust this site, have the rights to the data and want to share this content to the owner of this file request.
    Box Terms of Service|Box Privacy Notice"

    It does not seem professional at all. As we are paying to use the services, this should not be displayed. Okay if you want to advertise that its Box platform, leave the terms and privacy notice. If you are law firm etc, people are already cautious about sending files. the "advice" seems very…

  16. Sort files/folders/etc by exclusively names

    Right now can only sort files and folders by name separately ie. 04 folder, 05 folder, 01 file, 02 file, 08 link, 09 link etc. Would like them all in a row as they are steps to complete/fill out:
    01 file
    02 folder
    03 link
    04 file
    etc...

  18. Flag mutliple folders for Offline User

    Currently, in order to mark a folder/file for offline, you have to do it individually. It would be nice to have the ability to drag select folders/file and have the context menu provide the option to mark grouped items as available, as you might with any other native Windows function.

  19. Leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.

    Context : Allow box subscription tenants to leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.

    Use case: Tenants like us want to centralize the access to the APIs to our external vendors partners and internal teams. It is always beneficial to centralize the access using OKTA like OAUTH 2.0 providers and move to zero trust.

  20. Box Drive uses all upload bandwidth when sync

    Set an option to limit the upload (optional and the download) bandwidth when sync is in progress or upload large files, because when devices are connected to slow internet lines, it consumes the entire bandwidth and cannot work properly.
    Note that this is a standad feature of other similar tools.
