  1. Different Reference method to the Box location

    I need to be able to refer to a Box Drive location independent of a drive letter - Six users. Five users have box configured to sync to c: The sixth user has to have the location on his D: drive, due to space limitations (and big "Box" size).

    we need some way to refer to these files in some other more universal method (LIKE a UNC path... or \127.0.0.1\BOX\ or YOU NAME IT ) so that the SAME reference will work, whether someone's Box drive is on C: or D:

  2. Box drive to support SAML-based authentication

    We use Okta as a primary authentication method for Cloud-based applications like Box.
    Would like to see Box Drive to support for either redirect to main iDP configured at box account or naively support SAML-based authentication.

  4. Better functionality for viewing photo libraries

    We have folders of photos - Box is not great either in browser or in Box Drive to review this. In Box Drive, i guess it struggles to cache all the thumbnails fast enough so it is effectively unusable

  9. Unable to add URLs ( Internet Shortcuts) to Box Folders

    Favorite URLs ( Internet Shortcuts) are unable to drag and drop on Box folders, while the same is available for local folders ( C Drive). I find this very frustrating and limiting our ability to use BOX. Please resolve this issue urgently.

  10. Timestamp watermark appears in GMT timezone when public shared link is accessed.

    When a user is logged into Box and accesses a shared link, the watermark will appear in the timezone for their Box account.

    But when a public shared link is accessed without logging into a Box account, which is the most cases, then the watermark timestamp will appear in GMT instead of the device time settings.

    This would cause inconsistency for the time accuracy , some are the time user download or view the file, however some are not (GMT).

  11. Open as read-only when a user without edit permission opens the file in Box Drive

    Open as read-only when a user without edit permission opens the file in Box Drive

    Box Drive allows users without edit rights to download and edit files.
    You can prevent this by setting the file to "read-only" when users without editing permission open it.

    For example, if a collaborator with preview permission uses Box Drive, the file can be edited and saved on the user's PC.

    As in the case above, to prevent files from being downloaded, edited, and saved on the user's PC, customers want to have function "read only" when users without edit permission open files from Box…

  12. Improve navigation of Box Drive for Windows

    This is a request to improve the navigation of Box Drive. In Windows Explorer, after a user opens a folder, he can go back to the next higher level folder using "backspace" on the keyboard or "Left Arrow ←", but at this time, the last selected folder is selected and displayed. If a user performs the same operation on Box Drive, the user will be taken to the screen of the folder scrolled below the selected folder, but not 100% of the time. This happens when the user opens the folder several times and returns by backspace repeatedly in the…

  17. Display pop-up notification to let users know that Box Drive is able to be started

    Please display a pop-up notification to let users know that Box Drive is able to be started (or in other words, users are able to open contents).

    We own a lot of content - this makes Box Drive take a long time checking the updated contents and starting up.
    This is causing delays of Box Drive being launched.
    If a notification pops up when Box Drive is ready to start accessing contents, users would not have to check the status of Box Drive so frequently.
    Instead, they could work on other things while waiting for Box Drive to start.
