Show a warning message when users attempt to upload folders in a File Request
Frequently we have users attempt to upload folders to use using the file request drag & drop zone feature.
Box does not support the uploading of folders, however it allows users to drag folders into the drag/drop zone.
This gives the appearance that folders are supported, even though they are not. Then when users hit upload they must wait a long time before encountering an error that their upload failed, and it does not tell them why.
Solution: when a user drags a folder into the file request drop zone, immediately show a message that says "Warning: Uploading folders is…

Folder copy rights for non-editor role
When a user wants to copy subfolders from folder A to B, he needs Editor role for folder A. This doesn‘t make sense e.g. when folder A shouldn‘t be changed by the user. Please enable copy function to lower roles Previewer/Uploader and Viewer.

Provide the option of skipping files that have already previously been uploaded when loading a batch of files instead of creating "versions"
When I select all the files in a directory and drop them to Box.com, I need the ability to tell the system to skip any files that are already there and only upload the ones that are new. Currently, the system repeatedly uploads identical files and keeps creating "versions" each time the directory gets updated. It doesn't have to be the default behavior, since I assume there are use cases where versioning makes sense. But it absolutely should be an option, since the default user experience is to be asked how duplicates should be handled and given the ability to…

Box File Request - Limit number of files and/or file type for upload zones
When creating a file request for a folder, we would like to have the ability to limit the number of files able to be uploaded in an upload zone from the standard 500 uploads. It would also be ideal to limit the type of files that are able to be uploaded. For example, if we wanted a customer to upload document x in pdf format, we could use these limitations to ensure they upload in the correct format and all in one file, instead of uploading 20/30 png photos of the document we request. While we can provide guidelines on…

Box needs an ability to pause certain file uploads/transfers
When trying to upload files to meet a deadline, I sometimes have large working files using up all my transfer space. The ability to pause or stop certain files from uploading, prioritizing others would be extremely helpful. This would also be beneficial for metered connections while travelling. Thanks.

When importing documents they should keep the date of the document, NOT the date they were uploaded.
When all my documents and files were imported into Box back in the beginning, they all got the same date. That has been horrible to work with. Many documents have similar names but I could always look at the date and know that the more recent one was probably the one I was looking for. But now, I have to look through each document to see if it is the one I want.
Of course, once I have worked on it, it now has today's date and I can tell my newer documents. But now, even after being on Box…

Please display longer filenames in the Uploading upload progress popup window area
By design, it is common for our organization's files to have have 40+ characters in the filenames, and I sometimes need to upload them to Box in large batches. However, I can only see approximately 38 characters of my files' filenames in Box's Upload progress area. If I want to track Box upload progress, or if an upload fails, it is very difficult to decipher which file it is because I can't see the last few characters of the filename.
It appears there is no way to manually extend it to reveal more of the filenames' characters. Can someone please…

File size upload limit - Option to choose any file size from 1MB - 150GB
I am suggesting a file size upload limitation setting to be lower than the existing 2GB.
The reason why is because some companies who are hyper sensitive to malware and virus issues want the ability to deep scan EVERY file uploaded into Box. Currently, deep scan is only able to scan files that are less than 200MB in size. This is a gap that can be solved by reducing the maximum file upload size into Box to 200MB.
While this greatly restricts the size of files being uploaded into Box, it gives the customer an option to choose one over…

[File Request] cascade feature to allow granular uploading of files to a folder structure / subfolders.
[File Request] feature to allow uploading files to a folder structure / subfolders. The "Submit Files" page does not provide any context regarding the linked folder name without having to manually input this, and doesn't provide subfolders to allow the user to drill down and upload files into the subfolder of which they choose (with breadcrumbs of course to navigate back to the root folder share via the File Request URL. Currently users have to create a File Request per folder or invite users in to the parent folder as a "Previewer Uploader" in order to upload.
Alternatively, I'd just…

Increase maximum image size for branding a File Request to above 1 MB
Upload limit for Box File Request Company Logo Branding is only 1 MB. This is way too small when the average file size of a smartphone mobile phone camera picture is about 3MB, LinkedIn allows 8 MB and Google allows 5 MB.

Too many clicks to share files + see download activity!
I'm finding it inconvenient that, to share a link once it's uploaded in the web interface, I have to click "Create & Copy Shared Link", then click "Link settings", then click "Copy", then click "Save", then click the X to close the window. That's five clicks just to grab the direct link. It may not seem like much, but it adds up - and I could have sworn it was a faster, more efficient process in earlier versions of Box years ago.
Not only that, but the recent change to the layout of the web interface in terms of seeing…

Allow Admins to STOP Email Uploads Success/Failure Notifications
We have a requirement for some groups to email reports into Box folders. When using the Email Upload functionality, Box will send the uploading user an email to confirm whether their upload completed successfully or failed. Employees receive excessive emails since we cannot stop Box from sending these confirmations.
Just make it an option in the admin console to shut off these confirmation emails.1 vote
