  2. Show "Last Updated By" in Box Sync

    In BOX.com, there is a field to show the “last updated by”, which shows the name of the collaborator who last modified the file.

    Would like the same feature to be available in Box Sync. We would like to tag the filename with the modified by collaborator via a script.

  4. How can I specify a file type to ignore or block

    I found a thread on the forum (URL copied below) which was asking exactly what I am looking for. However, it is 4 years old and this page also has many ideas suggested but they haven't been addressed. Thus, I am not sure if my idea will be addressed but I will mention it anyway.
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360052391193-How-To-ignore-Files

    There are certain files I want Box sync to ignore or block. I would suggested allowing the user to create a configuration file in the root folder for the same in which we can specify files to ignore or block. This way, Box sync…

  5. Box has recently changed the way file verssions count against storage quota.

    With a Personal Pro account type there is no way to limit the number of file versions its set at 10. This makes 100gb of storage into 10gb of storage with each file saved 10 times. I'd like to see an option to limit or turn off file versions as I understand the Enterprise edition has. Also, there is no way to quickly delete all these unnecessary and unwanted file versions. I was told we need to click each file and delete each version one by one. I'd like to see a quick global way to delete old file versions.

  6. Folder Sync Prioritization from User

    Box Sync Prioritization**

    I know my coworker has been working in Folder A, and has uploaded or updated new documents.

    We are handing off the project, and so I know I need to access them as soon as I can...

    I should be able to hit prioritize Folder A so that that is the first set of files that need to be synced to my system. Folder A gets pushed to the front of the queue and all other files get put on hold until I get what I need synced. This could save me hours.

  7. When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder. At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times, but is it

    When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder.

    At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times,

    but is it possible to set it so that only new files are uploaded based on the timestamp?

    Because I want to stop unnecessary version upgrades.

    In the case of FTP, there is a "mirroring upload" function,

    which uploads only new files based on the timestamp.

  9. Ability to sync folders across multiple users

    My corporation has several regionally-controlled folders containing information that should be the same. Right now, that information has to be manually copied and/or reconciled to ensure the data is the same. I would like the ability to connect multiple folders from different users to ensure that the data is always synchronized across the regionally-controlled folders.

  11. Remove Box-branded Box Sync folder icon in MacOS Finder Sidebar

    I just want a normal-looking, unbranded folder in my Finder Sidebar.

    The current Finder Sidebar shows a rather ugly eye-sore of a logo in place of a plain folder icon, with no way to disable this customization so it pollutes every Finder window. I've tried pasting a new folder icon onto the Box Sync folder in the "Get Info" dialog box as is customary on MacOS for ALL other applications, but Box doesn't respect that icon (or the user's wishes).

  14. install selective sync on mobile app

    In the mobile app. for Box Sync, only sync the files I have marked to sync in Box.com. I have NO need to see all files in our entire organization and it is a waste of space on my phone,

  18. scan .bak files

    For heaven's sake allow box to scan .bak files - it's practically the only reason I'm using box! What's the point of a cloud back up system that won't back up backup files!!

  20. Folder created on mobile does not sync automaticaly on desktop with Box Sync

    Solution : automatically sync folder created on mobile on desktop, or at least allow to activate syncing on desktop from the mobile app (this option is only available online - under sub / sub menu - but not in mobile menu)
