  2. Box Online Only

    Admins should be able to decide which groups of users are allowed to use Box Drive versus Box online only. Box Online only would increase security in that users would not be able to download files and would be forced to edit/view files in browser only. This helps tremendously in securing data that contractors need to access.

  3. Searching for names with & does not work

    Hi, we have a group called M&A - you cannot actually share any folders or files with this group through the traditional methods because searching for M M& or M&A does not produce the group on box.com

  4. grant access

    I have a parent folder with many multiple subfolders with additional subfolders. Is it possible to grant different levels of access (i.e. lower level such as Viewer access) despite giving Editor access to the parent folder? If that feature could be included, that would be fantastic. Thanks!

  6. When dragging files to your desktop from BOX it should be a default of COPY, instead the default is MOVE. Unfortunately when user MOVES the

    After upgrading to Monterey, Box Drive has made a significant change in behavior where dragging a file from Box Drive to the local filesystem moves the file, rather than the previous behavior of copying the file. It will still copy if you're dragging the file to removable media, but not the local Mac drive.

    Anyone know of a way to alter this behavior back to the previous?

    It causes three fairly significant issues.

    One, if someone needs a local copy of a file for travel, offline, whatever, now it's removed from Box and no one else can access it if…

  7. Customization of Main Screen

    There should be away that you do not have to view all of the files and folders that you have been to invited to collaborate on when you are in Box. Currently, there is only All Files which shows folders and documents that I can't move, organize, or hide because I don't own them. There should be an option to customize my view to just my files and folders. There could also be an option to view just collaboration files and folders. That way, All Files could remain as it is., but I would not have to see the clutter…

  8. Make all files available off line by settings or one click

    I want to right click the parent folder in box and have make available off line.

  11. Warning or reminder on unsuccessful transfers

    Box Drive should present a pop up when a new unsuccessful transfer occurs, or there's pending transfers that need to be remediated. As of right now, if a user creates a folder or drag and drop folders and files in a location they're not supposed to (no permission, for example), no warning or error message is given to the user.

    The files and folders are then listed in "Unsuccessful Transfer" section on Box Drive, but no reminder is given to the user or any warning that their files are in limbo. They could be working for months without knowing their…

  12. Ability to 'select all' or 'multi-select' items for moving between folders

    Same as the title says: ability to 'select all' or 'multi-select' items for moving between folders. Why can't I select multiple files via a menu option, drag and drop, or any other method beside individually clicking every single item.

  17. Box Drive app more easily accessible

    It would be convenient to have an install Box link located in the Help menu or my Account icon similar to Dropbox. Even still, when I navigate to the Box App Center I have to go to Box Drive, scroll down to the respective OS and install. It sounds tedious but I needed to install Box and Dropbox on a bunch of computers and was reminded how the Box user experience still doesn't hold up to Dropbox. Neither is perfect and both have great features but I always feel like Box makes me take steps I don't need or doesn't…

  19. Use Relay to copy or move based on filename

    I would love to use box relay for a simple workflow. Is it possible to build a relay workflow that when a file is uploaded to a folder to look for a phrase in the filename and copy/move to a subfolder?

    Ex: Uploaded Filename contains the word "Home" -> Move to Home folder

    or Uploaded Filename contains the word "Work"-> move to work folder

  20. Open in Box Drive

    Ability to click a link that opens the current web box folder on the local Box Drive. This would allow for quick local file editing when you navigated to the folder via web Box.
