Add Support for Python in Excel
I would like to be able to use Microsoft Excel's new Python integration while stored on Box. I have been told that Python in Excel can only be used on content stored in "secure container[s] on the Microsoft Cloud", such as OneDrive, Azure, Sharepoint, and other Microsoft proprietary resources.

I would love to be able to direct Box Drive to any drive connected to my computer.
Have the option to choose where Box Drive syncs from not just where it is installed. Instead of the startup drive as default Box Drive location, having the option to choose any drive internal or external drive would be great.

Change default view in folders being shared
Box defaults to showing files via upload date, please allow the ability to select what the default view is, so that it can be set to file name (ie alphabetically).
When sharing links to folders with clients, files being shown via upload date looks messy and unprofessional and asking the client to change the view on their side isn't an option or a solution.

Box drive for surface pro
I have the latest surface pro laptop, but it says box drive is not compatible with this device. I use the drive version heavily for work and prefer not use a different content management software. . Surface pro suggested reaching out to box for support. The model features the Snapdragon X plus (10 core)/ X Elite. Can you provide an update that makes the drive compatible?

We would like to have a setting to control the ability to create shared links in Box Drive.
Currently, users can right-click on content in Box Drive and generate a shared link from the "Share" menu. We need a way to disable this functionality through administrative settings.
When creating a shared link from the web, it is possible to confirm that the shared link has been created by an icon,, however, when creating a shared link from BoxDrive, no icon is displayed, making it impossible to know whether a shared link has been created. Therefore, we want to prohibit creating shared links from BoxDrive.

BoxDriveで共有リンクを作成できないように制御したい
BoxDriveでコンテンツを右クリックし、メニューの「共有」から共有リンクを発行することができるが、これを制御する設定ができるようにしてほしい。
Webから共有リンクを作成する場合は、アイコンによって共有リンクが作成されていることが確認できますが、BoxDriveから共有リンクを作成するとアイコンが表示されず、共有リンクが作成されているかどうかがわからないため、BoxDriveからの共有リンク作成を禁止したい。

I want to be able to bulk rename files and folders within a specified folder
Bulk renaming files and folders in a specified Box folder though the web interface is a missing feature.
It would be helpful to be able to do so, as often clients or projects change name and the "CompanyA - content of the folder" or "ProjectA - content of the folder" names need to be renamed as "CompanyB - content of the folder" or "ProjectB - content of the folder".
When a company or project folder contains hundreds or thousands of names a string command like "rename text *** to text YYY in al files and folder…

Generating/Copying-to-clipboard multiple shared links at once through file explorer
Egnyte, one of Box's competitors, gives users the ability to select multiple documents in file explorer to then generate their respective shared links all at once. These links (and the document titles) are then copied to the clipboard and can thus be easily distributed.

technical support
How about someone to talk to that can address technical questions. It is almost impossible to get someone to help me with a problem of file transfer and simply opening a file once it is in box.

For the love of all that is holy. Please add the ability to pause and cancel specific offline items from syncing in the transfer window.
On a slower wifi connection users need a way to control syncing. The ability to pause, or even cancel offline file from syncing is essential. Dropbox has this functionality. Please catch up.

Display more information in Upload Error message in Box Drive
It would be helpful to have more information shared in the Upload Error notification that’s displayed for admins when a user tries to upload content to a folder that has run out of storage. It would be helpful for the error message to display information such as account name, email, or login of the user. Currently, if an organization imposes storage quotas for their users, admins will receive this message anytime a user tries to upload content to a full folder. Having more information up front within the error message would save admins time in looking to find who the…

Box Drive folders should automatically refresh when you open them.
When you open a folder in Box Drive, it should automatically refresh that folder. There's no scenario where you're opening a folder and you WANT an older version of it. If you're opening it, you intend to interact with it somehow, and in order to do so effectively you must have the most up to date version of its contents. Manually refreshing is tedious.

Assistance Required for Two-Factor Authentication Setup on Box
I have received a shared folder invitation from our customer, but I am unable to access the contents because it requires setting up an authentication app.
When I attempt to proceed with the two-step verification process, I am prompted to scan a QR code and input a 6-digit authentication code. However, I am unsure how to complete this setup and gain access to the shared content.
Could you please provide me with step-by-step guidance on how to properly set up the authentication app and access the folder?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Box Drive: Safe Column Width Fixation
The default column width is too narrow when viewing in Box Drive, and it is not possible to apply column width locking. I would like to request an improvement to this feature.
