Add external collaborator's expiration date on collaboration report
In the collaboration report, there are invited date and accepted date, but there is no expiration date. Would it be possible to add expiration date in the collaboration report?
Because it is too tough to confirm the expiration date one by one on the collaboration list page or using API, I demand the way to confirm enitre expiration date easily.94 votes -

Filter Box Signs by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive)
Box Sign: Enable ability to filter by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive), rather than on the right side (less intuitive).

starts with, ends with, contains in metadata search
We have quite a large number of folders and files for a specific application in Box. To filter results, we'd like toi be able to use "Contains", "starts with" or "ends with" in the metadata search fields

Support custom objects via the mobile Salesforce and Box integration.
The Box and Salesforce integration for Salesforce mobile does not support custom objects at all so we had to create a deep link workaround that redirects to the associated folder within the box mobile experience (this also requires some salesforce coding to populate a field with the corresponding folderID). This is not a seamless experience....it is a clunky redirect.
Also, you are not able to create the corresponding box folder for the first time from the mobile experience....you have to create the box folder from the desktop from within the box integration within salesforce first, before you are able to…

My Collections on Box Drive
Just wondering you may develop 'My Collections' function on Box Drive.
156 votesThanks for the suggestion! We are looking at how to improve content sprawl on Drive. We will be considering Collections as a possible path (among other options), but don’t have a change planned in the near-term.

＜Added the ability to download in bulk using the Box for iPhone app＞
We are using the Box app on our iPhone.
Currently, we can't select multiple items (such as image files) and download them.We are convinced that it would be even more convenient if it were possible to select multiple files and download them all at once.
If it is not possible to support all file types, could you please add a bulk download function for image files only?iPhoneでBoxアプリを利用しています。
現在は、アイテム(画像ファイル等)を複数選択し、ダウンロードができません。複数のファイルを選択して一括ダウンロードが可能になると、更に便利になると確信しています。
すべてのファイルタイプに対応することが難しい場合、画像ファイルだけでも、一括ダウンロード機能を追加していただけませんでしょうか。12 votes -
Make Shield Lists Accessible via API
Shield lists are not currently editable using an API endpoint. In order to make it possible to automate adding and removing entries to lists, I suggest making it possible to create/view/edit/delete shield lists using the Box API.

Shield classification user permissions
Request to make classification application settings specific to the classification. Currently, the setting for who can apply/remove a classification is for all classifications, but there are cases where it would be helpful that a classification to be only applied by owners and other where co-owner, or even editor would be allowed to apply certain classifications.
Examples:
1. A classification tied to a Shield access control rule that only owners can apply or remove
2. A classification tied to a Shield access control rule that owner/co-owners can apply or remove
3. A classification identifying a type of content that owners/co-owner/editors can…18 votesNot a priority. Will revisit in 6 months.

I want the ability to add comments to the version history
Now in the version history you will find the version number (for example: V1,V2...) is currently listed in the version history, the version number (for example: V1, V2...).
We check the contents of V1, V2... in the preview and restore the version.However, as the number of versions increases, it is difficult to find the exact version you need, so please add the ability to add a simple note in addition to the version number.
【日本語】------------------------------------------------------------
現在バージョン履歴では、バージョンナンバー(for example：V1,V2...)が記載されています。
私たちは、V1、V2...の内容をプレビューで都度確認し、バージョンを復元しています。しかし、バージョン数が多くなってくると、必要なバージョンを的確に見つけるのは難しいため、バージョン番号のほかに簡易なメモを併記できる機能を追加してください。

Users should be able to set up 2FA on their phones
We invite external users who only have phones. However, we are set up for 2FA. That means these users need to find a computer to login via the webapp to set up 2FA before we can begin collaborating. This is an issue. The mobile interface should allow 2FA to be set up.

Show file/metadata info from Photoshop image files
Photographers submit their images to our Box account for use in our publications. The industry standard is for professional photographers to add metadata like the photo credit and caption to each photo using the "File Info" tool in Photoshop. Unfortunately, after doing so and then uploading the images to Box, the metadata added in Photoshop is not visible in Box's metadata section. Please consider exposing this info under "details" or "metadata."
Extra credit: Allow us to edit that same metadata in Box. Doing so would allow the correct credit and caption info to flow into our InDesign layouts. Saving lots…

Create Custom File Request links
Currently, today, you can create a file request link, which generates a 32 character alphaumeric string. I'd like the ability to create a custom URL (like I can with shared links) to make it easier to promote my file request links to my stakeholders and make them more rememberable.
These custom file request links could have mandated security attached to them, either enforcing these to be only available to links set to "Require Uploaders to log in to Box" or (not available today in the product), enforce adding a password to access the custom file request link (see additional idea…

Option to not leave the data on the device
If the user presses the + button and selects "Take photos or videos" and encounters an upload error when uploading the photos or videos taken, those files are automatically saved in the device's library.
Since the data remaining on the device poses a security risk, you need an option to not leave the data on the device in the application settings.6 votes -
Sharing a Collection
I understand that collections are meant to be a user specific setting, however, it would be great to have the ability to share a collection with a co-worker.
97 votesThanks for the feedback. Collections are going to remain as personalized views in the near future. We may revisit this down the road.

Open file from UI Elements without approval
Ability to open a file from UI Elements Open With with Box Edit without being prompted to Approve/Deny to proceed.
Currently, every time a file is opened from UI Elements, Box Edit displays the prompt and asks the user to Approve/Deny before the user can start locally opening and editing the file. This adds friction to user experience, and we want the option to not display this prompt and auto-approve the file open from UI Elements

Convert BoxNote to PDF, DOCX, etc...
BoxNotes would be much more useful if there was an ability to able to generate a PDF or other document format that can be stored in a more traditional method in Box. Some customer that work in the regulated space can't use BoxNotes for various reasons. But, in many cases there is an issue with the fact that BoxNotes does not follow the same retention capabilities we have in Governance. Also, Keysafe does not support BoxNotes, so it may be a workaround if BoxNotes were archivable.
The initial idea would be to support PDF generation, but i can also see…

google shared drive
Allow Google Drive "Shared drives" content to be copied directly to the integrated Box extension in Gsuite. Currently, this is only available from "My Drive". The work around is to copy "Shared drives" content to "My Drive" (which in itself is awkward, because only files, and not folders, can be copied directly in the cloud), and then copy content from "My Drive" to Box.

3D/CAD File preview zoom function
<improvement>
Improve zoom/enlargement in 3D file preview functionWith the current 3D file preview function of Box, the display of the 3D model is small, and there is a limit to the distance that can be brought close to the 3D model even when zooming, so I would like to improve.
<Use case>
- BIM/CIM-based 3D CAD data can be easily displayed on a browser, which can be expected to improve communication with relevant parties and productivity.

Box for Teams v2: Bunch of files will be shown when the files has shared in direct chat
When the files has shared in the direct chat, it will be uploaded in "Microsoft Teams Chat Files" folder on sender side, on the other hand, for the receiver side, files will be listed in the top directory, which leads to list bunch of files in the top directory.
It would be nice, if the new folder will be created for the each chat under "Microsoft Teams Chat Files" folder and add collaboration for the folder when the direct chat has started.
