View total Folder size in web app without requiring an Admin run a report.
Users and Content managers require the ability to see the size of a folder they have access permissions to without having to reach out to an admin and run a report.
We are aware of the admins being able to run reports, as well as users being able to see the individual file sizes, but when multiple files need to be downloaded or handled via folder box user needs to contact us on the admin side to do any cursory decision making or review hundred and sometimes thousands of files individually just to simply get a total file size of…

file request with BVE
Currently we are using BVE and have a firewall setting to block the normal app.box.com.
When our group/subsidiary companies try to upload a file through file request, since the link URL is https://upload.app.box.com, they cannot upload a file via file request.
It would be great if we can make a file request link that is BVE so the URL is https://upload.ent.box.com.19 votes -
When moving content, it would be nice to have the option to create and name a new folder that content can be moved into.
Currently, when I move items to a new location, I either have to create the folder ahead of time, or move all of the items loosely, then create a folder, then moved copied/moved items into new folder. It would be nice if I would have the option to create and name a new folder during the move/copy process.

Limit the number of files that can be uploaded in the Box Web App
The request is to include a setting within the Admin Console to limit the number of files that can be uploaded at one time through the Box Web App.
The customer is in insurance (ClaimsPro integration) and is trying to implement functionality to make a work item when someone uploads more documents for a claim than is allowed.
When users upload too many documents, the job will run multiple times while the documents are being uploaded, creating multiple work items. They are unable to reduce the run frequency of the job and are hoping to limit the amount of uploads…1 vote -
Recent Files Menu Options
I saw one suggestion to allow "Recent Files" to open in a Microsoft App and not just browser, which I voted. The web app does eventually show the Microsoft App, i.e. Word, but only after I click on the file and it opens in preview mode. Why not immediately and before actually going to the preview?
Also, adding an option to the recent files menu that would directly link you to the file's folder would be enormously helpful.

Drag and drop operations between browsers
Microsoft Edge allows you to split the browser screen.
I have separate Box folders on both split screens.
It would be convenient to be able to copy and move files and folders from one screen to another by dragging and dropping them.1 vote -

Ability to be unlocked only with the permission of the person who set the lock
With the current file locking feature, even if a file is locked, it can be unlocked by another user.
In this case, the file that was originally supposed to be updated cannot be updated and is saved as another file.
The result is a lot of conflict files and a lot of work to merge all the information.[The features we want]
When editing a file, the file is completely locked.
If other users want to edit this file, they will ask the user who locked it to unlock it.
It will only be unlocked if the user who put…5 votes -
Invitation of collaborators by list
Currently, Box has a small screen for inviting collaborators, and invitations must be made on a per-privilege basis. So there are some mistakes of invitations by users.
This could be a compliance issue with business partners. So we need new interface that allow users to check the invitation list and register in a batch input.4 votes -

Offer option to "auto focus = false" in Box Embed to prevent page scrolling
When embedding Box documents via iFrame, the Preview SDK has Autofocus set to True. This means that Chrome web browser will "jump" to the HTML section that has the iframe and not stay at the top of the page.
I'm requesting the option to set autoFocus: false to prevent this. Note this has been an issue for many years, based on postings here: https://github.com/box/box-content-preview/issues/960

I want to bookmark a "file://" location
Box can create bookmarks to web-based content. Some users still have local, server-based files, box should allow creation of bookmarks to travel to these places.
As an example, I can paste "file://server/folder/folder/folder" into a browser address bar and get to a server folder structure.
Since I can do that, I can also bookmark it in the browser... If I can bookmark it with the browser, Box should also be able to use that address to create a bookmark in a folder.
thanks!

Revert to former UX for selecting files/folders (no more check boxes)
In order to select multiple files or folders in the Box Web App you now have to use the checkboxes which are only visible when you hover over the file/folder all the way to the right.
Previously, you could select multiple files and folders by clicking on the file or folder icon on the far left, and didn’t have to bother with checkboxes. The suggestion is to revert to the former UX for selecting files/folders

I would like to see a button implemented to go back to the original screen from the folder settings and collaborator screen.
When I go to the screen to check folder settings or collaborator in WebUI, there is no button to go back to the original screen
The folder settings screen can be returned to by pressing the cancel button or by using the browser functions, but the collaborator screen can only be returned to by using the browser functions.
I think this is a bad user experience because some users do not know how to go back to the previous screen.
It would be easier to understand if a back button is implemented, so please implement it!1 vote -

Accurate File Count - Script Automation or Access
As I've discussed with the BOX support team, BOX web interface does not display an accurate count of files. We upload thousands of files per day and when the count of files displayed by BOX is not accurate, we assume there was a network glitch and attempt to re-upload the thousands of files which results in unnecessary network bandwidth and computational resources.
The BOX support team has access to a script they run to fix errors in the file count. Until the file count is accurately displayed in the web interface, it would be nice if BOX would automatically run…

Show timestamp in "update" column in Box Web/Box for Teams
Dear Box team, it would be very helpful shwoing the timestamp of the last change of a file/folder is shown in Box Web and Box Teams Plugin instead of showing the date only (or a text).
