Box Shield
Can we have more granular on the detection rules, e,g, down to user groups, or individual account level - allowing customers to set priorities as high for some user groups, but low for others. For some users, a customer may expect high levels of downloads/activity in Box and this may be in peaks and troughs - therefore potentially a lower priority, whereas with execs this activity should be treated as a higher priority and greater risk.

Stop auto text
Box needs to stop auto text when attempting to type in the search bar. Proper nouns and acronyms are pretty standard in business and constantly changing what we type into the search bar is enraging and a huge waste of time.

Manage Permissions directly on the folder in Box Drive
Add ability to review/manage colloborators on Box folders through right click on context menu of Box Folder, when Box Drive is online. It's not efficient to go into Box Online to do this .

Make it easier to create a free account for external collaboration
free users account creation is difficult so this lead to lower the usage of external collaboration. Hence, the users are using more shadow IT
16 votesThank you for your feedback! At this time, we cannot prioritize this feature request, however, we will keep this in mind for future iterations of our account creation experience.

Hide Folder (and nested folders) in UI
When using Box for NetSuite V1 we were able to hide the entire NetSuite folder from the UI so that users could only access the content via the NetSuite UI. V2 doesn't have this option, which means that users can see any folders they were ever able to access in NetSuite, even if their permissions have since been restricted.
We should be able to have folders accessible through the NetSuite UI only.

Box CLI - need more output options for folders:items.
Specific to "box folders:items" but probably other commands as well:
1) If I'm asking for --csv, AND specifying the fields via --fields=, I don't need a header telling me the fields I just requested. I'd like an option to disable the header, or default disable it and make me add it back.
2) If I'm asking for specific fields as --csv, give me just those fields. If I'm asking for --fields=id I don't want it served back to me as "folder,#", I don't want to know it's a folder. If I later do something against that ID that is not compatible with it being a folder, let me handle that.
3) Same as above, but for --json, just give me id:#, not type:folder and id:#

3 votesHello,
We are not planning on changing --csv or --json behaviour in CLI.
Fields ID and Type are returned by API by default and removing them from the CLI would mean to modify the existing CLI behaviour.

Should be able to save note mails. Like what we able to save in the notes database.
As we are able to store the notes mail as with attachment in the notes database, similarly we should be able to save mails with attachments

Change Sender name to "Box" or "Box Updates" instead of the user's name
Collaboration Invite notification emails currently pull the inviting user’s Display Name from the Sender line and putting it in the From line. This means that while the email is coming from noreply@box.com, it still has the user’s name like the email has come from them directly.
This can cause conflicts with mail servers that flag emails based on Display Name and email origin. It would be preferable to simple have all notification emails from Box leave Box or Box Updates in the Display Name field, rather than spoofing the acting user’s name.

Delete accounts on "Inactive" status
I’m hoping you can allow us to delete inactive account regardless of what is in their trash can, that’s just ridiculous. Please make this change so we can self- manage our Box accounts.

View folders in Box notes
Right now you see a large collection of recent notes but no folder structure - have a view showing folders.
29 votesWe don't currently have this in roadmap. We have noted this feedback and will take this into consideration in future iterations of Notes.

Web Clipper
As a user, I would like to bookmark or clip webpage into box. There are two issues on the current "Box Bookmark" as following.
- Box Bookmark needs 2 copy&paste motions (URL and Name) when trying to save a page
- Box Bookmark may be unaccessible when webpage is not available so it should give an option as a screenshot

Backup Box Notes
I would like to have the ability to create a backup of my Box Notes or at least label version history (e.g. add a "v1.2" tag at a certain point in history).
I have tried using the Copy feature to copy the Box Note, but the copy does not retain the comments, annotations, or history.
I have tried copying the content into Word to no avail.
And there is no download button for Box Notes.5 votes -
Folder-Level Collaborator Reporting: Ability to run a report of which internal and external collaborators are added to an item
Users should be able to run a report of any folder they are an owner or co-owner of to see the list of external collaborators. This would be nice so they could periodically review it and remove stale collaborations.

Provide a way to remove duplicate files throughout a folder and all sub folders
I have a user who copied all the content in multiple folders some how and created duplicate files everywhere in the folder structure. All the duplicate files had a (1) at the end but also had a few files with (email address) at the end as well. Not sure why the (email address) showed up at the end, over the (1).
Never the less, I need a way as an admin or even a user to search for all duplicate files, within a folder/sub folders, and allow me to find all files with *(1) and provide me the list of files without the folder structure in one list. Then provide me an option to select all duplicate files and uncheck a few if necessary with a click delete option.
This could save us a lot of wasted time going into every folder and deleting duplicate files manually.

Improve consistency of UX between Folder & File metadata in web app
Right now (July 2019) in the FLMD public beta, the UX for Folder level metadata is very inconsistent (and arguably more cumbersome) than File level metadata.
For Folder level metadata, the metadata modal only displays after clicking "Edit", which is unintuitive since most users will just be viewing and not editing the Folder metadata.

Search Bar Prioritization
Implement a feature that allows certain types of files to show up first when you use the search bar on Box. This will allow for better organization and easier access to specific client files

Long Activity History to be deleted in one action
I have Co-owner permission for a shared Excel Online file on Box, and I can delete comments one-by-one under the Activity tab, however, I would like to delete all the comments in one action.
Could you configure Box to allow to delete the full comment history in one action?1 vote -
