  1. Root folders report

    It would be very beneficial and time saving if there was a filter on the Box side that will give you a list of all root level folders in the entire enterprise

  2. I need to be able to tag items easier and have the tags be a different color than the file name

    I would like to be able to add tools to the upper tool bar; IE on the last program the "tag" feature was in the quick select tool bar at the top of the page. I use this to mark reviewed quotes once i have reviewed and entered that info into the bid. Having it a couple clicks away slows me down.

    Additionally, the tags used to show up as blue, which helped our team quicker see those quotes that had been reviewed VS those that still needed to be seen. Can we make the tags blue again?

  3. Notification if content is screenshot

    We have secure content that we send to vendors as "non downloadable" but we also need to know if they take screenshots of that content. We would like functionality that notifies us if a user takes a screenshot of our content.

  5. Smart Access Behavior/スマートアクセスの挙動について

    Smart Access Behavior

    [Restrict managed users] > [Restrict all users except owner/co-owner] is selected, editors and viewers will not be able to move and copy operations.

    Restrict managed users > Restrict all users except owner/co-owner and editors is selected, you will not be able to copy the viewer.

    When using the above Box classification and Shield features (access policy), the settings will be applied to files but not to folders, even if they are set.

    When a user with editor privileges copies a folder, all copies are made.
    I can copy and move folders, but I can't download the files…

    We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap. Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

  8. Sharing within Parent folders

    I need to manage collaborators within a Parent folder, can you please enable this feature, many people are using Box drive as a file server and this will help us manage Freelancers very well.

  9. Enable different folders to sync on different PC's

    I want to sync a different subset on folders on a different PC. It appears that is not possible. You can only select one set for syncing... and that's it.

  10. File request: add the ability to pre-populate fields

    It would be great if there would be a way to pre-populate the fields of a file request with "known-information" if available.

    This would allow us to reuse a single file request in a portal, but set the metadata on the uploaded documents, based on the current user's context. Content can then be routed in the Box system based on the metadata set.

  11. transferring annotations

    Hi. I'm a professor and I created a BoxNote with a text I want my students to annotate collaboratively. I added some annotations, comments, and hyperlinks to get them started. Then I copied this BoxNote to another folder for a second section of the class. The hyperlinks transferred, but the annotations and comments did not. It would be cool if BoxNote supported the total transfer of material in a text, not just the hyperlinks. AND I can't copy and paste all those annotations so now I have to type it all up from scratch. That's a drag. Please design a…

  14. Allow an upload of data for Options fields in Metadata templates.

    For the metadata templates, our team has large lists of projects, clients, names, etc that would be best uploaded for potential Option fields in various metadata templates. This would help upon setup and updating of templates.

  15. Service Accounts should be rate limited differently than user accounts

    Currently, when you use a service account to access Box API's, in order to get access to content you need to use the As-User header "impersonate" users in order to access the files that are owned by then.

    So if you are doing something like using a service account to crawl through all the files in a folder in box, you would need to use the As-User header in order to impersonate a user who owns/has access to each file while doing it.

    But there is a huge problem here is that the rate limiting is done using the As-User…

  16. Get Notification on upload

    Currently owner of the folder alone will get notifications when a file is uploaded. We have a requirement for the uploader of the file to get notification as well so that it will serve as an acknowledgement for the upload

  17. Add an optional custom message when locking the file

    When you lock a file in Box, it would good to add your own message when locking the file as to why you have locked the file. By providing this, you can inform others who go to unlock the file why you have the file locked in the first place and either

    a) discourage them from racing through the confirmation dialog and unlocking the file
    b) provide additional context to them as to how much longer you will be with the file

    The message is optional so if you don't want to add additional comments, you can still lock the…

  18. collections available in modal windows

    Everywhere that uses a modal window should surface collections. For example in Teams adding a file to a chat to share, modal window appears. Show collections.

    Another example - When creating a workflow and then using the file picker modal window appears. Show collections.

    Collections should be everywhere, it is a killer feature that would get more use if you could rely on every interaction with box showing collections. (otherwise it makes using box more difficult remembering where content is)

  19. A Custom Collection Portal Page

    Business goal: The ability to share a visual customized page (like a web page) with various Box artifacts and other modules (described below) with peers, customers, team members, etc. Use cases:

    1. A project collaboration page
    2. Policies and procedures page
    3. Manuals and instruction page
    4. Product information site
    5. Business Development collaboration site
    6. Various

    Major Feature
    The ability to create a blank page and drop multiple "favorites" on the page. In essence, it is similar to sharing a "collection" of Box favorites, but a more visually appealing view. Other features of this custom portal page:

    1. Ability to filter the contents of the favorites…

  20. Hide thumbnails in previewing a doc

    I would like the opportunity to hide the thumbnails that appear on the left side of the screen when I preview the document. I would love to be able to have more real estate to look at the doc itself. There may be a time when it might be important to have those thumbnails come back, so a way to hide and unhide it would be great.
