  1. Lock/unlock sub-folders at will

    Product enhancement request: Create one main link to access a folder and its sub-folders, yet block some sub-folders from being downloaded. Benefit to user is that I can load all files at once, yet allow access only when I choose to. I can provide the link to users once. This saves me time and reduces confusion. An example of how this is being used is for a product launch where some files have been approved for distribution and the others have not yet, but will be “released” later in the week.

    Example:
    · Create Folder 1
    · Underneath is sub-folders…

  2. Ability to see activities tied to pinpoints on the Geographic Activities page.

    The admin console shows a worldwide map of activities, and lists number of activities by location. It would be very helpful to be able to get more information on the activity (file/user/etc.) as it will help ensure network is secure. (e.g.: should I be asking: "Is an employee on vacation in Kuala Lumpur, using a VPN, or is something else going on.)

  3. Asign tasks in Office documents (Word, Powerpoint...)

    I'm new to BOX (coming off business based on Google Platform) and have a few tips that would be awesome to have.

    This is about collaborating better in teams and working on the document together.

    Is there a chance to higlight a text in the Word/ Powerpoint - and asign that highlighted part to a team member? So on 1 slide I could potentially asign parts to different people to work on...

    Thank you, Michael

  4. Make file type icon easily visible to left of file name. Folders, too.

    File type icon to left of file name overshadowed by status icon (cloud, green check).

  5. It will be great if we can connect folder action between multiple flows.

    When you have in the first flow a folder action (copy, move or create), you won't be able to reference the folder in a seconf flow if you want to take action if the task that has been rejected.

    I have created a couple of Relay Flow (Contract Management and HR Onboarding) during the flow I create folder to collect more information from either a vendor a new onboard person, but when the flow get rejected and could not create a rejection flow (Second flow) because could not take action on a folder.

    This could be important when we will…

  6. Integrate with SEISMIC

    If Seismic is the new go-to platform for documents, Box should be able to integrate with Seismic. Currently posting and editing and tagging are done redundantly in both places. Further, there are other issues with assets being modified, expired, file name changes, etc.

  7. expired in value greater than 3600

    I see the sample response for refresh token, it shows "expires_in": 3964,
    Which I thought it would be 3600 as the max value.
    Is it a mistake or it can be any value?

  8. Automated Folder Actions

    Under Folder Settings -> Automated Actions, the "Unshare this folder on a specific date" option is a little confusing/misleading as it does not indicate that this is only for folders with a Shared Link enabled, and has nothing to do with removing/unsharing collaborations. Recommend the language be updated in this setting, instead of saying "Folder must be shared first" to "Shared Link must be enabled first"

  9. Short cut link for the file in Box Drive should be available

    Windows shortcut link for the file in Box Drive is broken if the BoxDrive cache is deleted. If the shortcut exists, the file in Box Drive should be opened as far as it exists.

  14. Box user activity reports to filter out downloads processed by CASB

    Whenever we run user activity report for downloads, since we have a CASB configured there are thousands of downloads being done by it and it is a bit of a hassle having to filter out 90% of the report to be able to get to the information that is needed.

  15. ability to add co-owner to an individual file

    It would be nice if users could also assign a co-owner to an individual FILE (that is, not a folder).

  18. @mention dose not work well in Flick input

    @mention dose not work well in Japanese Mobile app(Box for iPhone and iPad),when I use "Flick input".

    When I use "PC keyboard input",that function work well.
    But,when I use Japanese "Flick input",that function does not work well.

    I strongly demand that improvement.

  19. More options in “Last viewed” or Recents Page

    Within “Last viewed” area, there is no file operation available like on a file in a folder. It just can be shared… (no download, tag, mailing, …).

  20. move box sync deleted items to local trash

    Ask: When content is deleted from local Box Sync folder, content is moved to local user's trash folder.
    Reason: This is good if you ever delete content from box sync that has not yet been saved to Box's servers yet. It would at least end up in the local trash for recovery.
