Support for Macro-enabled Files
Macro-enabled Excel files (xlsm) can be previewed in Box (albeit a little slow to generate preview), but macro-enabled Word files (docm) cannot be previewed.
Neither document type is officially listed as a supported file type (https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Your-Content/What-file-types-are-supported-by-Box-s-Content-Preview/ta-p/327), so it would be expected that both work the same way (either be previewable or not).

Improve Iconography for Bookmarks
Currently, the Bookmarks Icon offers no distinction between a bookmark to another folder, file, or external site. Users are less likely to click on these bookmarks since the icon looks like a hyperlink instead of a folder.
Request:
(1) Allow user to identify if the bookmark is to another Box folder, File or External Site when creating it.
(2) Based on the user's selection, update the icons for bookmarks to look like a folder or file icon as opposed to a generic link/bookmark icon.5 votes -

Users should be able to leverage the ‘Groups’ feature for the use case of re-inviting the same group of collaborators multiple times.

Ability to opt-out from Group collaboration or hide group collaborated folders under All Files.
If collaborated as Group, the folder appears under All Files whether the user want to see it or not.
After a while, all of these folders would show up under the user's All Files and would be very hard to manage.
Thus, ability to opt-out from group collaboration or ability to "hide" folders under All Files is needed.

Create annotations that aren’t visible to other users
Annotation that only the user/owner can see and not to other collaborators.
5 votesThe overall request for the ability to annotate files in Box is tracked here: https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-feedback/suggestions/35984509-ability-to-annotate-markup-files-documents-ima
Specific to this request, we do not plan to expose the ability to mark up a file (with highlights, drawings, etc.) with annotations that aren’t visible to other users. The primary use case for annotations in Box is to share feedback on a given file, like these examples:
“Update this paragraph to be here instead” on a document or “Change the color of this to blue” on an image -
Ability to limit shared link access to a folder at the folder settings level
Currently there is a setting that allows you to limit a folder to collaborators only. The additional setting to limit the settings for access to people in the company or higher at the folder settings level would provide more granular control.

Thanks for the suggestion! We are working on a few other alternate solutions to tags, so our investment is somewhat limited in tagging currently. As a result, I’ll mark this suggestion as ‘not planned’.

True 'Select All' - Expand 'Select All' Beyond Just the Current Page of a Folder
REQUEST: Add an option for 'True' Select All such that when a user performs a Select All (via command+a / control+a), they have a new option to also select all items in the current folder, not just the ones on that current page.
BACKGROUND: When folders have a lot of items, there can be many pages and pages of items. The webapp's current 'Select All' functionality ONLY allows users to select all items from the given page (which is only 20 items for most users since the 'items per page' default is 20, though users can manually increase it to…

Add additional collaborator role between "Editor" and "Viewer Uploader" that allows a user to delete
The ability for a Viewer Uploader to also delete content
5 votesThanks for the suggestion! Based on the current information provided, we don’t currently have a feature like this planned.
We’d love to hear additional use case context from interested users, however, in why the need exists to have Viewer Uploaders be able to ‘delete’ without simply raising them to ‘Editor’ level. Any additional information would be very helpful.

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.

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.

・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。

Folder tree order up side down when move/copy
In folder view on Web Application, upper folder tree view is shown when working with deep folders.(left corner)
The display order of this tree view and the tree view displayed when you "move/copy" a file are up side down.
(where[...]mouse hober over)
(Folder hierarchy ascending/descending order)
So, when moving files, there is a possibility of causing a mistake in the destination.Normal folder view: 1st>2nd>3rd>4th>5th
View on Move/Copy: 5th>4th>3rd>2nd>1st
It's happy to be if it is a same display order.
Most of users remain on Box Drive/explorer, for a transformation, we would like to recommend Box web application for users.…

Placement of "Delete Group"
The placement of the "Delete group" button at the top right of the screen that appears when you click a group from the list of groups in the management console is too poor.
During normal operation, what you see here are forward-looking functions such as "Save" and "Add."
The more you get used to the operation, the more likely you are to press this button with force.管理コンソールのグループの一覧から、グループをクリックした際に表示される、画面右上のボタン「グループの削除」の配置が悪すぎる
通常のオペレーション時、ここに表示されるのは、「保存」や「追加」といった前向きな機能群である

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 -
After pressing the share button, I would like the "Invite users" field to be hidden for users who do not have invitation authority.
During daily operations, after pressing the share button, the "Invite users" column is displayed even from the user screen that does not have invitation authority, which causes confusion.
If you hover the cursor over it, you will see "You do not have permission to invite collaborators", but I would like the "Invite Users" field to be hidden from the share screen so that I can make a decision right away.
If it is difficult, if you are not authorized, please display the message "You are not authorized to invite" when this screen opens.日頃操作する中で、共有ボタンを押下後に招待権限を持たないユーザー画面からも「ユーザーを招待」の欄があることで混乱が生じてしまう。
カーソルを合わせれば「コラボレータを招待する権限はありません」と表示されるが、
直ぐに判断できるように共有画面からは「ユーザーを招待」の欄を非表示にするようにしてほしい。
もし難しい場合、招待権限がないユーザーがこの画面が開いたら「招待権限がない」というメッセージを表示させてほしい。4 votes -
I want the general user to be notified when an item is copied or moved and the process is complete.
When an item is copied or moved, a message is displayed indicating that the move is complete, but when the target folder is checked, the process may not be complete.
After moving or copying large data, the user may immediately see "copy completed" but the process is not actually completed, confusing the user.
Currently, general users can only visually confirm that the process is complete, and the only way to confirm that the process is complete is to request a user with administrative privileges to output a user activity report.
Therefore, we would like to see a function implemented to…4 votes
