Shared links auto-expiration exception for specific folders
Currently, the auto-expiration policy for shared links applies to all folders and files. For shared links on folders, it would be great if we could prevent specific folders from expiring (similar to custom notifications settings on specific folders).
We have a couple of folders that are synced and shared using public links and shouldn't expire.1 vote -

different versioning rules according to location
It would be very helpful to have different versioning rules according to locations. For instance, in a specific folder you could have 10 versions of a file and in other folders 50.

Template library for enterprise
We’d love to be able to have a template folder structure that our enterprise can use to create the same folder structure over and over again. We use the same folder structure across the enterprise often. If we could create a template library that out users could access to create new Box folders with the same structure that would be super helpful.
Thanks!

Hello Box, Box, by removing the Grid View for us desktop users you are making life hellish for those who need to send video files and image
Hello Box,
Box, by removing the Grid View for us desktop users you are making life hellish for those who need to send video files and images to clients for selection/use at their end. 90% of value in the Box platform has been diminished by this one change.
Instead of us/our clients being able to scan hundreds of images/video clips and then be able to click in to specific files for a closer look, people have to go through one by one to see what images/video clips look like. This update is like going back to the stone ages for…

Detect empty folders
Is there a way to detect empty folders in Box (so we can delete them if needed, to simplify a folder tree) ?
Maybe a tool on a computer can work (like Remove Empty Directories) but it would be great if it was detected by Box itself.1 vote -

Rewind a folder
Dropbox had an incredibly useful feature called "rewind", where you could rewind the entire contents of a particular folder back to a certain point in time. This has saved our company on numerous occasions. Box should look into adding this feature since there isn't a way to preview different versions of a folder (only a file). Could save customers from huge headaches of losing files within a folder.

Ability to moderate/pre-validate comments
Some files in Box have a very wide diffusion (All the company so about 1,5/2K people).
We would like to moderate the comments.
The function we want is a folder parameter stating that all comments on any file in this folder would be validated by the owner ou co-owner of the folder.1 vote -

Add themes to folders
I wanted to deliver a folder of images to a client and they've asked me to theme or brand the folder so they can forward to their guests. This would be great to be able to do.

Last modified date affected by added metadata
Good afternoon,
When the metadata for a box file record is updated from the UI or from the api, the last modified date and last modified by is not updated. So, it is clear that nowadays only the content itself matters when updating such metadata but if a document altogether with its metadata is considered a unity, it would be good that the modification date would be also changed by a metadata change.
Please, could you consider to have this implemented?
Thanks

User or Groups listed in the Content Manager sharing window
When inviting users and groups in the Content Manager, I would like to know more corresponding email addresses and group names listed in the Content Manager sharing window.
Currently, up to five users or groups appear in the Content Manager.It is very inconvenient for tenants with many similar email addresses or group names.

Ability to Edit folder contents but Folder cannot be deleted
Hello,
I am submitting a feature request for the ability to have Folder contents edited and changed (Add remove files), but users who have Editor permissions cannot delete the folder itself. We had an issue where a folder was deleted that has data sent to it via a Python script. The user meant to delete some contents from the folder, but accidentally deleted the folder itself. The folder name was "Doc Upload Test".
I was able to get the folder restored through the Box Support team. If there was a feature for each folder where a checkbox was available that…

Unable to see file/folder/metadata details when viewing deleted files
Scenario: A user deletes a folder and the admin, from content manager, is looking to quickly see which files were in that folder. Conversely, if a file is deleted, it's not easy to see which folder it was in.
