  1. ”Priority" lock feature (There is no way to open an Office file that is being edited online in Box Edit.)

    Currently, if a user has a file open in OfficeOnline, that file cannot be opened in Box Edit.
    If I want to perform operations that are only possible in the local Excel application (e.g. sheet or macro operations) and a colleague comes home while editing in Online, my work comes to a halt.

    Can you please implement a priority lock function that works as follows.
    1. click "Priority Lock" on a file that someone is editing online.
    2. Only the latest version of the target file is copied to the same folder as a separate file with "(1)". After that,…

  3. Sort Field Preference in Settings

    My files and folders are all indexed with numbers. It would be helpful to always sort files and folders by name to keep the indexing order. However, Box keeps sorting by the "Updated" field, which completely messes up the indexing order. Is it possible to have a Sort Preferences in Settings so one could select which field should be the default for sorting?

    Thanks.

  4. Make an option to turn off the warning "Confirm Removal From This Mac"

    I drag-and-drop files onto Box all day long, and every file I move I get the warning "Confirm Removal From This Mac". It would be nice to have the option to turn this warning off.

  5. View in Box Drive from Box.com

    Our team primarily uses Box Drive. When we send Box.com links around, it is very cumbersome to then have to navigate to the file in Box Drive if you need to use Box Drive to access it.

    A button should be added to the web version of Box.com to "View in Box Drive" which would then launch the Finder (Mac) or Explorer (Windows) location of that file in Box Drive.

  6. Ability to skip blank optional fields from file request when renaming based off of the metadata

  7. Enable by default the option to create a new Canvas from existing template

    When creating a new Canvas board, it would be great to have the option to select from a template enabled by default. This feature is easy to miss when not enabled for new users. The option to disable/enable can remain, but it should be enabled by default for users initially.

  10. The new formatting just implemented is horrible, why did you change it? :(

    Go back to the formatting you had, please. This new grid view is less zoomed in so it really serves as a less optimal preview!

    Please consider allowing more zoomed in grid view images like it was up until about an hour ago! THANK YOU!!

  12. Phone number format prompt

    When setting 2FA by SMS, Box should update this part of the web site to specify exactly what format the phone number needs to be entered in.
    E.g. "7797123456" and not +447797123456, 447797123456, +44(0)7797123456 etc.

    Although it seems to work with or without a leading zero, it would be better to not include it as it is not part of the "phone number"

  13. group admin to receive Shield alert and see shield dashboard

    I would like to have group admin to be able to receive the Shield alert and also be able to see the Shield dashboard.
    This is because currently the security team is not a co-admin but just a group admin and they would like to see alert from Shield

  14. Add a seach box to the file lookup when attached files to Asana via the Box connector.

    Asana file uploads from Box.

    When uploading a file to Asana from Box via the Asana/Box integration, there is no search box. This requires the user to navigate to the file location.

    It would save users so much time if there was a search box.

  15. Blind Guide - Instructions for new collaborators

    I wish to state my ongoing frustration with sharing collaborative folders with my clients via box. The instructions for me, as part of a subscribed user group, are clear. The instructions for a new user who we invite to collaborate ARE NOT. You put me in a position of the blind guide when the client or collaborator asks me for help getting to the files – and Box has not provided sufficient instructions. I suspect Box assumes because I have logged into box as a new user once in the past, that I know how to coach a new user…

  17. Please display longer filenames in the Uploading upload progress popup window area

    By design, it is common for our organization's files to have have 40+ characters in the filenames, and I sometimes need to upload them to Box in large batches. However, I can only see approximately 38 characters of my files' filenames in Box's Upload progress area. If I want to track Box upload progress, or if an upload fails, it is very difficult to decipher which file it is because I can't see the last few characters of the filename.

    It appears there is no way to manually extend it to reveal more of the filenames' characters. Can someone please…
