Embed Online Annotations in Word Documents as Comments, and vice versa
There is a disparity between the online annotations and the actual Word Document when it is downloaded. I would really like to see a conversion/compatibility between Box.com online annotations and Word Document (.doc and .docx). If someone adds an annotation in the online preview of a Word Document, this should show up as a Comment in the Word Document when downloaded for offline viewing. Similarly, if someone adds a Comment in the Word Document (via MS Office application), this should show up as an annotation when viewing the preview in Box.com online.
I do see a few other requests for…

I would like to change the thumbnail/preview image for videos to a specific keyframe. You can do this in most video hosting platforms.

When are you going to bring back file aliases? Bookmarks are not the same and don't cut it.
We need to be able to create symlink/aliases for files in multiple locations so that we aren't forced to upload a file multiple times, in several folders.
We use Box to allow our clients to download files, and we sort those in a way that makes sense for them. We also use Box to upload all of our files in a way that makes sense for our employees to find assets. Without symlinks/aliases this is tedious to do and ridiculous to manage.

Admin Reports - User Activity -> Actions needs a field for if the user triggered or an automation like Box Drive triggered
When you see "downloaded" next to Box Drive for the action, you dont know if it was a folder marked for offline just downloading automatically, or if the user is actively opening the file...this needs clarity!

Copy file in workflow should create a new version if file already exists
I am creating Quality Management workflows. At the end of the workflow the released document is copied to a new area, that is shared with the consumers of the QM-documentation.
Works fine the first time we run the workflows. If we update the document and run the workflow again, the target file is not versioned: we get a new file with the same name and a timestamp added to it.
I appreciate this behaviour in some situations and understand why you have chosen this solution. However we would like to have the option in the workflow to "version the file,…

Add tasks to main API
I am trying to use the tasks feature as a method of notifying our automation software that it has work to do via your API. However, I can find no method for a user to list all their tasks. Your web app has an undefined endpoint:xxxxxx.app.box.com/app-api/tasks/inbox?limit=10&taskcollaboratorrole=ASSIGNEE&taskstatus=INPROGRESS,NOT_STARTED
Can this be added to the main API?

Allow bulk actions to be interrupted (such as copy/move/restore/delete)
When users copy / move / restore / delete a large number of items, we want them to be able to cancel if they notice a mistake along the way.
Currently, when processing a large number of items in Box, we need to wait until the process is completed even if we notice a mistake.
When processing large numbers of items, processing may require several days.
During that time, folders and files are locked.
Please make it possible to interrupt the process on the way.64 votesDue to higher priority initiatives, this has been deprioritized.

I want to change the icon of the Box group.
I want to change the icon of the Box group.
Currently, it is not possible to change the icon of a group.
However, for the following reasons, we would like to be able to change the icon so that we can identify the group in the collaboration list.・To identify special groups used by system administrators.
・In order to avoid confusion among users, it is necessary to be able to identify the system administrator at a glance.【日本語】-------------------------------------------------
現在はグループのアイコンを変更することができません。
しかし下記理由からコラボレーション一覧で、グループの判別ができるように、アイコンの変更ができるようにしてほしいです。
・システム管理者が利用する特殊なグループを識別したいため。
・ユーザが確認するにあたり混乱を招かないよう、一見してシステム管理者として判別できるようにしたい。2 votes -
