Leave the username on approval tasks intact even after account deletion
It is hard to trace approval history on a file after the related users are deleted. This causes a lot of friction with customers. It would be better if all usernames would stay on approval tasks even after their respective accounts are deleted.

Improve Move operation to offer choices when destination folder already has file of same name
Currently, if a number of files are selected to move to another location, if the destination location already has filename(s), Box simply advises that the moves for those files has 'Failed', and lists then 'already exists in the folder '....'
Box should instead, like other products, offer a pop-up window, indicating the filenames, locations, dates last modified, (and additionally, if any files are signed), with the option for user to select/unselect file(s) to overwrite or ignore. Filenames selected/ticked would then be moved, together with other files where no match was found.
To simply offer no choice, leaves the user knowing…

Enable users to select alternative applications to open files with in Account Settings\Integrations, other than MS office - such as for imag
The application used to open some filetypes is 'hard-wired'. Users are not offered option to select the application 'to open with'. For example, images can only be opened in MS Paint when opened from Box on Web.
Box should either A) offer the option to select an application to open with (for applications where viewer shows content, or B) should refer to the PC/laptop's Settings\Default apps and use that application
For example, Box displays a preview of an image (jpg/png) selected, but when Open button selected, only MS Paint is offered to open the file. The world has moved on…

Disable version history deletion for the entire tenant
To comply with Japan's Electronic Bookkeeping Law, transaction documents are stored in Box, but there is always a risk that the files may be modificated with or deleted.
File deletion and modification can be restricted by retention policies, etc., in addition to folder level of access.
Deletion of version history can also be restricted by folder access permissions.
However, users who have been granted editor or higher privileges can delete version history, and there is no other way to control this.Request the ability to control the deletion of version history in tenant settings.

テナント全体でバージョン履歴の削除を無効にする日本の電子帳簿保存法遵守の為、取引関係の書類をBoxに保存しているため、ファイルの変更、削除されてしまうリスクが常に潜んでいます。
ファイルの削除、変更の制限は、フォルダのアクセス権限以外にリテンションポリシー等で制限をすることができます。バージョン履歴の削除もフォルダのアクセス権限で制限できます。
しかし、編集者以上の権限が付与されているユーザーはバージョン履歴が削除できてしまい、他に制御する方法がありません。…

Ability to customize the display of the root folder of [Box for Salesforce]
About the display of the root folder of [Box for Salesforce]
I would like to prevent the root folder of [Box for Salesforce] from being shown when I log in to [Box Web].
The reason is that I want to refer to documents attached in [Salesforce] only in the [Salesforce] screen.
When logging in to [Box Web], we would like to tighten the access control of documents by making it impossible to operate the target documents from [Box Web].4 votes -
Shared links still show Box's specific branding even after custom branding
We are a business user of Box. A critical feature for us is file previewing using Shared and Preview links. Even though we have used custom branding in Admin console -> Enterprise Settings, still the shared links show Box's specific branding e.g. Signin, Signup, blue color header bar prompting for signup, etc. This is a problem when we want to share docs to our customers using shared links.

Show full folder path at top
Too much of the file path is collapsed at the left while there is plenty of space along the top to show more of the path.

File request custom theme transparent logo suggestion tooltip
When putting themes for file request, using logos with existing color backgrounds does not look as clean. It would be great to add a tooltip suggestion to use a transparent logo for the user designing the theme.

Ability to turn off optional message field on shared link email and add collaborator dialogs
Many customers in regulated industries do NOT like the fact that some email notifications from Box have the ability to enter an optional message that will be included as part of the notification. Because this email bypass the customer email gateway they don't have visibility into what that message is. This feature is a compliance issue and should have the ability to turn it off.
The Box Compliance Email Archive is not sufficient for some customers and that is why one way to solve this would be disabling the feature.

Set default branding experience for File Request Links
In an effort to become "Enterprise Grade" and set certain UI preferences as the default, it would be nice if there was a way to have the enterprise UI settings (logo, color, etc) set as the default user experience when creating a new File Request link rather than having to set that manually. This would also help with consistency across the user created links when making them for external facing entities, reducing confusion for third parties.

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).

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…4 votes -
Ability to view Box folders and files more clearly
Currently, when we look at a list of folders or files, we feel that they are displayed in a cluttered way.
This makes it difficult to find a particular item.
We manage and respond to items by grouping them by tags.We believe that the following features will make Box even more convenient for us to use in the future
・Assign any colour to the folders in the box
・Assign any colour to the tags in the Box
・The order of the tags in the Box can be rearranged by dragging.[Boxのフォルダやファイルを更に見やすくする機能]
フォルダやファイルを一覧で見た際に、雑多に表示されており、特定のアイテムを見つけるのが難しい。
現在は、タグによってグループ分けを行うことで対応している。今後以下の機能が増えることでより便利にBoxを利用できると考えています。
・Boxのフォルダに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグの順番をドラッグで並び替えられるようにして欲しい。4 votes -
Comparing Saved Versions
Box automatically saves versions of documents, but no one in my company can use this feature because there's no way to compare versions of these document (i.e. run redlines).
Example: If I share a Word document with a client and they make revisions, I can see a new version was saved but I have no idea what they changed.
The automatic version saving is an OK tool if I'm the only one using the document, but it's not effective for multiple drafters.

Provide the ability to allow co-owners to manage trashed items in Item I Own
Currently only owner's can manage item trashed by others under folders they own, we would like co-owners of items have the same ability as owners to be able to manage trashed items under Items I Own or add another filter Items I Co-Own. There are two scenarios that will be very help pull, one when the folder structures are configured such that owners are system accounts and real users are co-owners and others and the other scenario is if owner is not available for some reason then co-owners can take their tasks. This will allow co-owners to view items trashed…

Folder tree organization
No way to archive / organize folders (both shared with and created) on box without just deleting them. I have box on my desktop for work and also use the web portal occasionally. I was unable to move folders (that either were shared with me or i created) into an archived / organized manner within my Box workspace. I asked Box product support and they said it wasn't a feature at this point. I'd like to be able to organize all of the folders that I created and were shared with me without having to delete them, or let them…

Ability to prevent users from adding/deleting files and folders of a specific folder without affecting that folder's sub-folders
Example: I have a top level folder called 'Top'. Inside that folder I have two other folders 'A' and 'B'. I would like to prevent users from adding and deleting content in the 'Top' folder but still allow them to add and delete content in folders 'A' and 'B'.

Ability to track access log of folder shared link
We have access stats at file level, but there is no way to check if a folder is accessed via shared links. It would be nice to get counts on how many times a folder was accessed via shared links
