I want to be able to look up files and folders by ID numbers within Box online
I am trying to find a file within the trash of an admin account and I know the ID but am not allowed to search by the ID. Not being able to search by the ID means I have to go through 472 pages of results until I find the file I need due to search limitations.

Save search filter settings
In an environment where you frequently deal with specific files, setting filters every time you search for a file can be tedious and reduces work efficiency.
I wish there was an option to keep search filter settings or not.-in Japanese-

Ability to sort fields to arrange by when viewing All items
When searching through all items it would be helpful to be able to click on any of the columns headings to sort the results of a search or just through All Items.

Add root level file path + end file path to search results (Root > 1 > 2 > 3....x+3 > x+2 > x+1 > x)
Currently, when you search for an item in Box, the list of returns displays the last x amount of folders in the file path that fit in the screen. Understanding that showing the entire file path (though desired) would not be possible, it would be more helpful to show the first 3 folders starting from the root folder, and the last 3 folders from the bottom, to get a better idea of where this item lives. Due to large enterprises with multiple PB of content, only seeing the last 3 folders of the file path is not helpful enough.

Search in safari broken
When searching within Safari the search is performed within the current folder with the option for Everywhere and Within <folder> appearing at the top.
In Safari when clicking on either Everywhere or Within this Folder the search disappears. As a result it is difficult to search everywhere, requiring a search to be done from the top parent folder.
This doesn't happen in Chrome, and seems to be a bug.
(For others that come across this, as a work around, pressing the down arrow then enter properly selects Everywhere without the search disappearing)

split PST files
I have a large PST file in Outlook that’s becoming difficult to manage due to its size and also difficult to handle as well as. That’s why i would like to split them into smaller, more manageable files to improve performance and avoid any kinds of issue.
Can anyone recommend the best way to safely split a PST file without losing any data? Specifically, I’m looking for guidance on:
Are any reliable third-party utilities that can help split large PST files or should I go for manual method?

Default search in "Sign" section
Please update the default setting for the search bar in the 'Sign' section. Currently, it only searches within the list of documents sent for signature, even though we had a separate search bar for that purpose. The search function should be set to search across all areas.

To be able to set their preferred default search to either "Everywhere" or in the folder you're in, depending on their own workflow.
From what I'm reading, I am not alone. I would like to be able to set mypreferred default search to the "Everywhere" option instead of the current folder. Others prefer the folder they are currently in, but it should be up to the user to determine what they want it defaulted to. Not what the develepors think everyone wants.

default search to search everywhere in box
We are not happy with the new search experience. We dont mind it but it would be nice if we can set our default search to search everywhere in box. We find that searching everywhere is more useful than searching within a folder. This auto restriction to the current folder is useless to our attorney's and likely adds 2 hours to their workweek (30 seconds at a time....)

Search everywhere should be the default search option
After the most recent update, the Box search bar searches the folder you are in automatically, and not "everywhere" as previously. When I am searching for a new folder, I have to either go back to the main page by selecting the box icon or - ensuring I change the search filters to "everywhere"
I think everywhere should be the default or at least have the option for the user to decide how they would like the search bar to function.1 vote -

Box search filters - ability to select bookmarks
Without any filters (ie not selected Files or Folders), the Box Web Search results INCLUDE bookmarks matching the word/string selected in the search.
HOWEVER, if a user wishes to isolate only the bookmarks listed in the results, THEY CANNOT.
Bookmarks ARE a Box type I would argue, therefore the 'Type' filter should list 'Bookmarks' amongst the other types listed (to search for these only), as well as CONTINUING to display Bookmarks in results of 'Any type'
Whilst it is recognised that bookmarks may be to both FILES and FOLDERS (inside and outside of Box), this should not be preventing them…

Display more text in search results
I would like to have the paragraph or at least several lines on either side that contains the matched search term(s) displayed in search results. We have a significant number of documents that contain similar verbiage. Having more text from the document displayed in search results would allow users to identify relevant documents without having to open them. The API should also return the same amount of text.

Bookmark character limit
Bookmark character limit
The maximum number of characters for the URL when creating a bookmark is 500, but the URL exceeds 500 characters when searching by metadata, so it cannot be registered as a bookmark. I would like to save the search conditions in the metadata and use it to access it again, so could you consider improving it?ブックマークを作成する際のうURLの文字数上限が500になっていますが、メタデータでの検索をした際のURLが500文字を超えており、ブックマークに登録する事が出来ません。メタデータでの検索条件を保存しておき、再度アクセスするといった使い方をしたいと思いますので、改善をご検討いただけませんでしょうか？

Generate csv for the users with permission
let's say you have a subfolder with multiple users with the same permission, and want to create another subfolder for the similar purpose for the same users. Wouldn't it be great if you can generate a user list as csv or any other format, so you can easily copy and paste the users to invite? I know an admin can create a group but dont you think a regular user should be able to do the similar thing too?

Make new files/folder immediately searchable. Remove latency.
Make new files/folder immediately searchable. There is massive latency for new files/folders being searchable, which creates a very confusing and unpleasant end user experience.
When a new file/folder is created, it is not immediately searchable. Please fix this.
