Ability to access public links/folders that aren't shared with a specific account via the Box desktop application
Sometimes a client sends a public link for a folder that is +100 GB. Downloading through the browser is obviously much slower than using the desktop application, but if the folder has not been shared directly with my account, I cannot access the folder via the app. Please implement a way of accessing public links via the Desktop application.

Download Collaboration
Uploading a file from a web browser
I would like to have the ability to automatically download a file uploaded from a web browser on a different computer.
This will greatly help in improving the efficiency of indirect collaboration with other software.- upload a file (csv) from a browser (chrome) to Box on computer A. 2.
- PC "B" (Win11) has a software program installed on it, and the csv file is imported by the software.
- The PC in environment B is always connected to the Internet while it is running, so we would like the uploaded file to be automatically…

Box is not longer default showing files by file name. This requires resorting of files every time I open a folder, which is hundred of times a day.

status completion report when copying a file to another folder
Can we get a status completion report when copying a file to a new folder? Sometimes all the permissions don't copy over straight away, causing confusion. for example, I was unable to rename a file I just copied. I waited a while and then it worked.

Make an app for Windows like Dropbox for S
My employer blocks the installation of software like Dropbox and Box, but I use them for everyday work. There's a Dropbox for S app -- can Box release a similar Windows app? I believe there might've been one but it's been discontinued.

I want to be able to open a folder in File Explorer from Box.com
I've used Dropbox previously, and there's a feature on the browser version that allows you to open a files containing folder in File Explorer on Windows or Finder on OSX. For Box, the only options to open something on your computer from the web version is with the file's native app. It would improve our workflow significantly if we were able to open a file folder on our computer from the Box.com browser.
Thanks!

Not delete data flagged as "make available offline" when Box Drive is closed/logged out
Currently if data is generated and saved locally on a machine into the Box Drive folder, exiting or logging out of the Box Drive application will delete the local data on the machine, even if the folder it is saved into is marked to "make available offline".
We are a small physics research laboratory currently trying to migrate our data collection and storage from Dropbox to Box. We were disheartened to discover that if data is generated on a local machine, by collecting and saving it directly into the Box Drive folder, say, and Box Drive is logged out (by…

To be able to TAG documents using keyboard shortcut
I would like to be able to assign shortcuts to functions in box both in the dashboard view and in the document review. Tagging a document takes too many steps and too many mouse clicks to do which defeats the purpose of using tags. A TAG icon on the right side menu along with the metadata icon would also be nice to have to be able to TAG documents faster.

Default Shared link should be settable at the Folder level for all new links
Request the ability to set the default shared link permissions at the folder level for all files/folders in that folder.
Eg. We have a clients folder that we want to be able to share with clients outside of our organization. Many of our designers use the box desktop application and pull shared links by right-clicking and pulling directly from the finder. However, since our entire account's default link sharing permissions is only invitees, that link can't be used for external users without going to the browser and changing the link permissions manually for every file they pull. We want to…
