  1. Ability to send e-mails from Box Web UI when "Restrict collaboration to within <Enterprise name>" in folder setting are activated

    Following enhancement was made at May 7th, 2021.

    Collaboration Allowlist Enhancement
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500008585062

    Customer are setting collaboration for internal only by folder setting.
    In this state, shared link are used to share files with external users.

    But with the update above, we can no longer send shared links by email from Box Web UI.
    Copying the shared link and sending a separate email is a workaround, but it doesn't get users to understand.
    A growing number of users are confused by the clumsy error messages that appear when sending email, and some mistakenly believe that shared link wasn't created properly.

  2. Accessibility - Update 'Not Part of [Organization]?' text on company-specific URL's to indicate that it is a link for screen readers

    We have a company URL, for example organization.box.com; there is a link that reads, "Not a part of [organization]?" Clicking it brings you to the generic Box login page. However, this text is not handled correctly by screen readers. We propose that this should be updated for the benefit of our current and future clients who may rely on a screen reader.

    From our accessibility department: "So when the screen reader gets to that line, it does not indicate that it needs to be clicked "if you are not part of [the organization]." It is vague, and does not guide…

  3. Customize default view

    The side bar that shows who the folder/file is shared with always appears and takes up way to much space so I always close it. I wish I didn't have to close it all the time and my preferred view was remembered or I can customize my views in my account

  4. Make available an email address that consists of only numbers

    In our file request settings, the "Email address" is set as mandatory.
    Users whose email address consists of only numbers will be marked "Invalid email address" and will not be able to upload.
    In the current specification, users of companies that use email addresses consisting of only numbers cannot upload.

    Make sure that an email address consisting of only numbers is recognized as a valid email address.

    ファイルリクエストの設定にて「メールアドレス」入力を必須にしています。
    メールアドレスが数字のみで構成されているユーザーは「無効なメールアドレス」と表示され、アップロードできません。
    現在の仕様では、数字のみで構成されたメールアドレスを利用している企業のユーザーはアップロードが行えません。

    数字のみで構成されたメールアドレスが有効なメールアドレスとして認識されるようにしてください。

  5. Please add a button to switch between 'available', 'Add by Default' and 'Never show' for "the items displayed in this Box web app".

    In the near future (2021 7/15 JST) there will be an update to the user app settings in the Box web app.
    Once this update is in place, applications that are 'available' in the app settings of the management console will appear in the Box preview screen.

    While we are very happy about this, we do not want to confuse end users with this update.

    We would like to see only the applications that are set to "Add by Default" on the screen as now, and not the applications that are "Available".
    Please add a button to switch between 'available',…

  6. Folder color and icon customization

    Current UI, it is not easy to recognize which folder is important in visually.
    If we can customize folder color and icon by importance, it is going to be easy to discriminate between folders and it is improve security.

  7. Open Link in New Tab

    Really wish the right click in the web page navigation allowed me to open the link in a new tab so I didn't have to navigate back to the beginning every time I want to open a new folder.

  8. 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.

  9. Make collections have the ability to playlist sequence a song list. The web client is missing any ability to playlist songs.

    On the web app, we're missing any way to playlist and sequence a song list. The iphone app does this automatically with folders, but we need this feature on the web app! The collections would be the perfect place to be able to do this!

  11. Set certain folders to default to searching only within that folder

    As an example, we have a Knowledgeable folder. When users go to that folder and search, I want to confine search to just that folder by default (most users won't want to tick the box).

  12. To have shared file Information field open to public (non-logged) viewers

    Hello, I would like to suggest that Information field of public file shares are shown without requiring login. I believe that both the class of utility that particular field offers to visiting viewers as well as the practical aspect of having to log-in in order to view that text is not realistic and should be open to public viewers.

  13. Remove Recent button from Web portal

    Let's say I watched private photos uploaded to Box.com. Next time I want to show someone some public photos using web version of Box.com under my account. I log in and - voila! - my private photos are visible under "Recent" now! No good. I suggest to optionally hide "Recent" from Home portal.

  14. Visible Folder Tree Setting

    Problem: users often have files/folders shared with them by collaborators, and the titles of these folders can be the same - e.g. 3 folders all named "Photos." Without clicking into these folder, you don't have context as to who owns it/where it came from.

    Request: Allow folder owners to decide if they will allow folder tree visibility on their collaborated folders. This would provide context without giving direct access to content they should've have access to.
    e.g. They can add Folder Visible on an upstream folder and they would see the folder but no content until they get to the…

  15. new tab opens for link destination

    It would be nice to be shown link destination in a new tab or window (w/o right clicking function) when clicking on URLs/hyperlinks for comments, search results etc. on Box.
    Jumping to link destinations in the same windows makes me unhappy cause I have to re-open original site each time.

  18. Add 'type' in column sidebar features.

    Currently the features at the column sidebar only can sort by 'Name', 'Updated' and 'Size' only. 
    It would be nice if the column sidebar from box layout features can be add another item on it, Which is I'm looking for 'Type' of folder/file to be add. 
    This will make the layout neater and more organized because the colors of files and folders in the waeb app makes them cluttered which makes the layout seem not regulated efficiently, and it will also make it easier to search for files and folders especially in large quantities of files in one folder. Looking…

  19. We want the ability to display a list of tags.

    I'd like to see this kind of feature because it makes it easier to check tags by displaying them in a list.

  20. Improve preview window navigation

    When checking previews in the Web app the Previous button continuously moves if you go between files that have single or multiple pages. With multiple-page files, a thumbnail pane appears which pushes the Previous arrow around making it a nuisance to preview files smoothly.
    Please put the thumbnail pane inside the preview area so the Previous button doesn't jump around. Also, it would be really nice to move between files with the left and right keys on the keyboard, wouldn't it?
    Thank you.
