Disabling the "Get Box Sync" setting in end users' Account Settings Menu
When a user signs into their Box account, they have the option to view their account settings toolbar. One of the settings is Get Box Sync, which directs users to the Box website with the Sync installer.
However, for large organizations, end users do not have administrative privileges to install such a tool. In these situations, customers use a deployment tool to assist in pushing (or making available) the tool to end users. By using these tools, end users do not require admin privileges to install the tool.
Having this option in the UI is confusing to end users and…
4 votesIt is possible for the admin to disable the “get sync” message in web app (because we copied that functionality to allow admins to disable “get Mobile” as well). If the admin disables this, then it should meet the request above. We don’t have any plans to allow users themselves to suppress this message from user account settings.

Make Custom Support Contact Info available on every page
Currently, if a customer has only inputted a custom phone number and email address for support in the admin console, the only place it shows up is in small text in the Account Settings. UI should direct users to their in-house support first. The Custom Support Contact Info should be visible at the bottom of every page.

'Email Shared Link' - Allow Searches to Include Spaces
The 'email shared link' feature (in the Shared Link pop-up) does not allow the user to enter a space when typing in the name/email field, meaning a user cannot type someone's first and last name to narrow down to exactly who they want.

Add a personal message box when inviting a collaborator to a FILE
Currently this process is completed via the Box Web interface. When we grant access to a folder, we are given a personal message text box that allows the user to leave a comment, or instruction for the audience the user is sending the collaboration to. Currently, when sending an invite to collaborate on a FILE, the user must send a separate email, giving direction to the employee receiving the collaboration invite to a file. Having this enhancement added would remove one step of inviting a collaborator to a file.

Favorites: Access Favorites from More than Just the All Files Page
If favorites really is supposed to be the easiest way to direct to frequently access content, being able to see it on every page in Box (not just on the all files page), at least as a dropdown option, would be really useful.
3 votesThis was launched with the Left Sidebar Favorites project in April 2018. Wahoo!

SSO - Disable Automatic Email Notification when Email Alias is Added via SAML
Currently, when an email alias is added to a user's account via SAML (upon login), the user receives an email notification alerting them of this addition. Some customers would like this email notification (specifically when an alias is added via SAML) to be disabled.
Request: provide the option (on the Notifications tab of Enterprise Settings) to suppress notifications for 'email alias added' when the alias is added via SAML.

'Not available' error message when accessing a link needs to be more specific.
Please fix the ambiguous 'Not available' and 'Unable to Download File on Box EMM' error messages when users attempt to click on links sent to them that they don't have access to.
Instead of users being sent shared links, they are being sent URL's for files/folders that only the sender has access to (as designed). They are asking for the error message to be more specific, and to say something like the following:
"The requested page does not exist, or you do not have permission to view it, or this is not a Box Shared Link. Please check the URL…2 votes -
