  1. 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。

  2. 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…

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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…

  7. 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.

  9. 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.

  11. Allowing BOX to mount a mapped network drive on local system

    The Vast majority of competitors of BOX allow for a mounted virtual drive . BOX would be more useful if you can assign certain BOX folders to a mapped network drive

    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.

  17. Extend 21 CFR Part 11 Compliance to Box Sign APIs to enable Part 11 Box Sign requests via Box Drive

    As of Box Drive v2.43, Box Drive now integrates with Box Sign. However, this integration does not support Part 11 compliant signatures. Since Part 11 compliance is enabled and enforced for all users in our organization, this presents a risk, as users could inadvertently bypass this requirement when using the integrated Box Sign feature via Box Drive.

    From Box Support "...when a user clicks on the "Send to Box Sign" option from Box Drive, Box Drive sends a "Signature Request" to Box Sign API. When the request is successfully processed, Box Sign API replies with “prepare_url” in response. We then…

  19. Merging Content of two Folders with Same Name and Same files

    Merging the Content of two Folders with the same name and the same files gives the option of overwriting the destination or not. This will be very useful if you have duplicate content and want to save time and storage.

    The 'Favorites' feature in Box allows users to quickly access frequently used files and folders by marking them as favorites. However, adding folders to 'Favorites' is only available through the Box web app and is not supported on Box Drive, the desktop application.
