home button on iOS app
When I get many folders deep into Box on iOS, it would be helpful to have a home button to go all the way back to the top of my folder structure. Currently I occasionally have to click many times to navigate back to the top.

Would like to have a setting where I could hide the activity pane for all documents when iPad is in landscape mode.
I don't use the activity pane very often, but since I used my iPad docked in landscape mode with an external keyboard, the activity pane opens every time I open a document. Instead of having to minimize the activity pane each time I would prefer to have a setting where it is minimized by default and I open it only if needed.

Add "remove collaborator" option as option in a Relay workflow
In the same vein as being able to Add a collaborator as part of a Relay workflow, it would be nice to also Remove a collaborator as well. Customer would like to Add a collaborator as part of a workflow, have that collaborator do their part, then have them removed as they no longer need access to the content going forward.

Skip SSO login for Microsoft Teams
Please can we implement this to save all Box + Teams users getting prompted to login to Box from Teams after every Teams launch? (Staff are using SharePoint instead of Box as the user experience is easier)

advance generation of 2nd factor authentication codes
provide an option to generate a one time code for 2 factor authentication in advance.
We have a use case where an external organisation has provided a PC in their site where our users can log in to box, however our users are not allowed to bring their own devices (phones or laptops) onto the site.
To continue using 2FA it would be useful if a user could generate a one time code in advance print it then use it as the 2nd factor when logging in to the machine proved by the external organisation.
(similar to google authenticator backup…1 voteMFA backup codes are available to use. Feel free to reach out in case you need support on the enablement.

filter the activity report with specific classification
We want to get the activity reports for specific classification(just like specifying the folder).
We need to audit user activities for confidential files every quarter. Current activity reports can only specify the user, date, folder and action, not classification.

Avatar API Driven Capability
Avatar —
Customer would love to have the API Driven Capability to Upload to the user’s Avatar, and might require additional API parameters like “center point” to ensure a portrait is centered.
Customer stores Avatar/Portraits of their people in centralized personnel databases, which is the key store for that data. Their users engage with it there for uniformity. Also API Driven would allow them to build Avatar Processes into their Native Mobile Apps that also impact their Box Experience in a positive manner.
They already have several workflows that output Avatar to outside systems upon change internally.
7 votesThe Upload Avatar API was released earlier this year. Please find more details on developer website at https://developer.box.com/changelog/#2022-05-18-new-endpoints-for-user-avatar

Box Drive: Support ARM processors
The new Microsoft Surface Pro X uses an ARM based processor and Box Drive doesn't support ARM processors. I'm sure use of the ARM processors will increase rapidly since it allows for much longer battery life and support cellular data connections.
81 votesWe launched ARM support for Apple devices with Box Drive v2.22
We currently do not have this planned for Windows devices.
Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

Exports users doesn't reflect the latest users
We're using the list of users which we can export from 'Export Users' button in Users and Groups menu to verify if the user provisioning tool is working correctly on the daily basis.
Although I heard from Box that Box reports are being migrated to new data platform to improve the performance, this new Export Users report doesn't reflect the latest users. Maybe this new one reports the user list as of roughly half a day ago, so we can't our daily verification task correctly...
I think user list should reflect the latest status so I want Box to fix…

Remove OneDrive & SharePoint as storage location when deploying Box for Teams
Box is our central location for all content across our company. We also use Microsoft Teams for collaboration, which is why we're excited to roll out the new Box integration with Teams. However, there are still ways users can accidentally upload files to OneDrive & SharePoint. This may be a Microsoft limitation, but can Box find a way to remove these as options when we turn on your integration? We want Box as the only storage location for any file uploaded to Microsoft Teams.

box drive sync progress
When syncing large amounts of data or many items into Box, I don't have a number of items remaining unless I try to log out of Box drive while it is uploading. Could we take that information and put it into the Box Drive icon like it was displayed in Box Sync?
144 votesThis feature was delivered in Box Drive v2.20!
Users can easily view upload and download progress in the new Transfers UI (accessible via the system tray on Windows or menu bar on Mac).

Reports status
Easily link to the file directly from Reports status
Even if you know immediately that the status is completed in Reports status, it takes time to find the corresponding file in the report folder!
The files are numerous, have similar names, are difficult to find, and are easy to make mistakes.
So let us be able to jump directly to the file from Reports status.3 votes -
Notification when someone is editing a file
Since we don't have an option to check-in/check-out of files, can you add a feature like Dropbox's badge which alerts a user when someone else is editing a file so we prevent any simultaneous version history/editing issues?
58 votesWe have launched the capability to coauthor Office, iWork and Google Workspace files from Box Drive. Coauthoring documents will provide indication on the users who are actively editing the document.
We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap for other file types.
Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

Allow editing of annotations
Sometimes I want to change the comment I left with an annotation. But the only option I get is to delete the annotation. So I'm forced to copy the previous text, delete the old annotation, and create a new one. That's annoying!
