  1. version tracking between multiple files

    It often happens that multiple files relate to the same product and therefore need to have the same version tracking. In this case if a version is created by mistake (the version number is incremented on a file) this can offset the version tracking between all the files related to the same product. Some solutions include:

    1 - Give more flexibility around version numbering (be able to do a hard reset of the version number - i.e. reset version number from number 30 to number 25 and delete all versions in-between)
    2 - Allow version tracking between multiple files -…

  2. Open app in one click

    preview adds no value just adds clicks, tabs, and frustration. Either a button to open in a preselected app or just an option to do it on a double click

  3. file upload api

    Please remove the "/" after 'content' in the "File Upload" API URL from the official documentation. When triggered from Postman, the current API generates HTTP Error 400.

  4. Better workflows for organizing content

    A colleague of mine works in an a department we'll call "DepartmentX" in a larger organization. Within other departments in the org they create a "DepartmentX" folder and share that to my colleage's box account.

    My colleague now has several "DepartmentX" folders and cannot at a glance see where they are from.

    In the initial view in Box and even on BoxDrive the "root" is polluted with other people's stuff and it is not possible to organize that into sub folders that are meaningful.

    If a user tries to drag a shared-folder into a folder they created Box attempts to…

  5. Customize group admin access, Just to handle folder addition

    Currently, Group admins have more privileges over on box groups, In our environment, we have 0 group admins for all the groups we manage.

    Trying to see if we can have more customization on the roles been defined for a group admin.

    A role where they can just manage content access will really help us bring down admin control on group access.

  6. Awful UI problem when adding collaborators

    Please fix this awful UI problem: I tried to invite collaborators to a folder, and send a message. I hoped to include my contact info so it would show up in the email. Apparently any sort of URL is not supported in this message box. Ok, fine. But instead of giving me an error message and allowing me to save the last 15 minutes I spent compiling the list of collaborators and writing the message, the box disappeared and AFTERWARDS I got a red message box stating that URLs are not supported in this message box. I lost a lot…

  7. enterprise - auto add invited collaborators, need that turned off

    as an admin of our Enterprise Box account I would like the ability to turn off the function that automatically adds an invited collaborator who has the same domain. We are part of the state where our domain is the same throughout the state but our Enterprise is only for a small agency. If our members invite another state agency employee to collaborate the system automatically adds them to our Enterprise. Surely there is a way to turn off that function, allow it to be a yes/no toggle even.

  10. Detailed List of Managed Users in Tenant

    We would like the option to view a detailed list of managed users in tenant that has all the information of the following that is provided in the Admin Console's Users & Groups":

    1. User Account Details
    2. User Access Permission

    In the case of a large enterprise with many users registered,
    this would greatly help check and sort through each user's permissions conveniently without having to click each user's profile.

    (Currently, neither "List enterprise users" API nor "User Details" report provide for this use case.)

  13. Quit with the Box Mobile popups.

    I know it's there. I will get it if I want it. But interrupting my work every 10 minutes with a popup I need to close is about enough to make me cancel my subscription.

  14. Opening links from PPTs in Box

    Currently I can nicely preview files created with Microsoft Powerpoint. Also these days I can click links in the PPT and those open up. With the exception of links containing a hashtag. Then only the part of the URL before the hashtag character is opened up. I believe this is a real live bug in the way links are handled.

    e.g. I have this URL linked in my PPT
    https://www.mycompany.com/#/offering/8EEB4F8F
    If I try to click this link through Box I'm getting sent to https://www.mycompany.com/

  15. I would like to be able to take wide lens photos in Box Capture for iOS.

    I work in the real estate business and used to take a lot of photos with Box Capture for iOS. But, apparently Box Capture only uses the standard lens of my iPhone 11 Pro. Is there a possibility that with an upgrade we will be able to use the wide lens and tele lens also?
    Thanks in advance for your response.

  16. Smart Access Behavior/スマートアクセスの挙動について

    Smart Access Behavior

    [Restrict managed users] > [Restrict all users except owner/co-owner] is selected, editors and viewers will not be able to move and copy operations.

    Restrict managed users > Restrict all users except owner/co-owner and editors is selected, you will not be able to copy the viewer.

    When using the above Box classification and Shield features (access policy), the settings will be applied to files but not to folders, even if they are set.

    When a user with editor privileges copies a folder, all copies are made.

  18. Add an optional custom message when locking the file

    When you lock a file in Box, it would good to add your own message when locking the file as to why you have locked the file. By providing this, you can inform others who go to unlock the file why you have the file locked in the first place and either

    a) discourage them from racing through the confirmation dialog and unlocking the file
    b) provide additional context to them as to how much longer you will be with the file

    The message is optional so if you don't want to add additional comments, you can still lock the…

  19. collections available in modal windows

    Everywhere that uses a modal window should surface collections. For example in Teams adding a file to a chat to share, modal window appears. Show collections.

    Another example - When creating a workflow and then using the file picker modal window appears. Show collections.

    Collections should be everywhere, it is a killer feature that would get more use if you could rely on every interaction with box showing collections. (otherwise it makes using box more difficult remembering where content is)
