  1. Folder migration improvements

    Folder migration improvements

    The current process for changing folder ownership and transferring it to a new location is cumbersome and inefficient. It involves:
    1) Logging into the Admin Console and impersonating the owner's account to change the folder ownership.
    2) Waiting an unspecified amount of time for the change to take effect.
    3) Logging in as the new owner to move the folder to its new location.
    4) Waiting again for another unspecified amount of time for the move to finalize.

    We are undertaking a large-scale project to transfer folder ownership from individual accounts to a service-level account and reorganize…

  2. Change the wording in the log in / Homepage

    Could the wording on the home page be changed to read "Employee of..." instead of "Part of ...."? We share Box with external users and the wording is confusing as they are part of the company but do not work for it.

  3. Preview support for SRT subtitle files

    Guys, video subtitle files '.srt' are simple structured text files, it would be amazing to add support for previewing them in the interface.

  4. Mirror shared folder across enterprises

    We have a user who collaborates with folks in a different Box enterprise, and wants to know if their shared content can be mirrored between folders within each enterprise. He sees this as a potential positive for backup, among other purposes.

  5. Improved file count interval in WebUI

    I heard that it takes up to 24 hours to update the number of files.
    When moving folders in Box, you may want to check the number of files immediately.
    I want to be able to see the number of files in real time.
    You can also add "update file count" in the folder menu.

  7. "Referrer"

    We are planning to use Box as file storage of our members only page.
    We need "Referrer" function to allow access to folders and files only from our members only website.

  8. Password Protect Folders and Files

    I'd love the option to Password-protect folders and files as this is something that Dropbox currently does.

    When you password-protect files through Dropbox, you guarantee that only the people you want to access your files can get to them.

    Before anyone can view or download a document, they need to enter the password you set to protect the document.

  9. Ability to select specific shared links and delete them all together

    Sometimes, users create shared links and then leave them unattended.
    As part of our inventory, we delete unnecessary shared links based on the shared link report.
    However, in order to delete them, we need to access each file from a browser.
    We would like a mechanism to delete multiple specific shared links at once.
    If there are multiple shared links in the same folder, I would like the ability to check them off and delete them all together.

    In Japanese:
    共有リンクをユーザが作成した後、放置されていることがあります。
    棚卸の一環として、共有リンクレポートをもとに不要な共有リンクを削除していますが、
    それらを削除するためにはブラウザから各ファイルにアクセスする必要があります。
    複数の特定の共有リンクを一括で削除できる仕組みが欲しい。
    もし同一フォルダ内に複数の共有リンクがある場合は、チェックを付けてそれらをまとめて削除できる機能が欲しい。

  10. Add visual indicators in UI mapped to metadata - in search results and preview

    Problem: There is no visual way to differentiate content types. In the near future, customers will be mass categorizing content with metadata and there should be a way to add visual indicators mapped to certain metadata. That could be folder colors or icons mapped to certain metadata types.

    For example - Use folder colors and metadata to visually organize types of content in Box UI.

    Possible solutions would be Example: Some ECM customers used to keep personal and enterprise content separately. Personal content may have draft content similar to published enterprise versions of content, but not approved for use. Enterprise…

  11. Add the option to toggle off the ability for folder collaborators to mail all other folder collaborators

    Add the ability to toggle off the ability for folder collaborators to mail all other folder collaborators as it can be very spammy coming from a noreply @ box address and collaborators (especially external) may not fully understand how to use the functionality appropriately, especially with sensitive content/information that should not be seen by other folder collaborators for legal/regulatory reasons.

  12. Increase the number of Box App Diagnostics report outputs.

    Since only 100,000 rows can be output in one run, I would like to be able to output even more rows.

  13. BVE File Request Links Redirects

    File Request Links need to follow the same format as shared links, this would allow Box Verified Enterprise to be enabled without having to recreate all of the File Request Links afterwards since existing links no longer work when enabled after initial setup/when in full production.

  14. "What's New?" Button in a the Box Web Application - Can we include release notes notifications there as well?

    Would it be possible to include release notes in the under the "What's New" button inside Box's Web App? Besides receiving sales notifications, it would be nice to have our users in the know about changes that might be impact them right there in the Box Web App, and not under the release notes' external page.

  15. Folder Lock from Web UI

    Currently, Folder Lock can be configured only through API. We would like to be able to configure it on Web UI, e.g. Folder Settings.
    Folder Lock function is very useful, but not used widely. Probably it's because API is not very friendly for some users.

    Because of the downstream impacts, we will not be solving this problem as requested. We will be looking at a more holistic approach to prevent unintended consequences of file operations.

  16. Function to allow selection of all files in a single folder

    ・I would like to resolve a discrepancy between the number of files displayed in the BOX and the actual number of files (data inconsistency).
    ・If the time of resolution is undecided, I would like to be able to select all files in a single folder right away, so that I can check the number of uploads and the actual number of files saved.
     (I would like to be able to check the number of files)

    単一フォルダ内でファイルの全選択を可能とする機能

    ・ BOX の表示ファイル件数と実際のファイル数が異なる現象(データの不整合)が発生しているので解消してほしいです。
    ・解消時期が未定であれば、取り急ぎ、アップロード件数と実際の保存件数を確認したいので単一フォルダ内でファイルの全選択ができるようにしてほしいです。

  19. Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content

    Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.
