  1. Group - Allow the deletion of a list of user

    Group Management - Allow the deletion of a list of user.
    And do not search user one by one in the group, then click one by one on Remove button and then save ...
    When you have hundred users to remove in a group with thousand users, it is boring and time consuming...
    To add a group we can add several users at the same time, it is better !

  2. Folder Setting Limitations - Box Drive

    We have folders for each office where they store their active and archived (old) jobs. These folders can can contain many hundreds of job folders (sub folders to the parent folder) representing hundreds of GB and even over TB in some cases of data. It is way too easy for users to simply check ‘mark for offline’ in Box drive or attempt to sync the folder in Box Sync.

    When that happens we have custody of data issue for a ton of files. Further it allows people to easily steal data in bulk. Just in the past week we have…

  4. When sharing a link can the link have the path name in it?

    It would be great for shared links if the path was in the link to ensure the correct link is being shared without having to double check it and so the receiving party knows exactly what the link contains.

  5. When saving a file or creating a new folder can the name start to auto-fill?

    It would be great when saving a file or creating a folder the name would start to auto-fill to help with naming consistencies.

  6. Managing/Drawing Diagrams in Box

    Box already integrate MS Office to be able to temporary dowload a office document for edit but also allows to update MS Office documents online in the browser.

    I would like to see similar functionality for diagrams.

    Draw.IO is a diagram tool that you can use offline and online app.diagrams.net
    So it would be easy to provide working with diagrams in Box very easy.

    Function A: Online Editing of draw.io files with embedded drawio or passing it to app.diagrams.net

    Function B: Allows to temporary download drawio files same as with ms office documents.

  7. Visually check the copied or moved items

    Currently, there is no way to distinguish between "copied or moved items" and "newly created items" other than in reports.

    For items that have been copied or moved, it would be useful to have the option to see the history of those copies or moves in the browser.

    <コピーや移動されたアイテムをブラウザ上で目視で確認する機能>

    現状では、レポート以外では「コピー・移動されたアイテム」と「新規作成したアイテム」を区別する方法はありません。

    コピーや移動したアイテムについては、それらのコピーや移動の履歴をブラウザで見ることができるオプションがあると便利だと思います。

  8. Hi, are you interested in knowing about spelling/grammar/usage errors in Box online training, not incl British vs American English?

    Grammar and spelling police here. Just wondering if you'd like errors pointed out so you can correct them. Allowing grammar and spelling errors in training materials, especially those offered online, makes Box seem unprofessional and shady -- like a phishing email or letter from an online lottery telling me I've won money. I've found five errors on just the first page of the Get the apps you need lesson, and they're not British v. American English differences.
    Happy to send screenshots.

  9. File Request User Configuration - error messaging

    When configuring File Request for "enable for select users", users remain in the list even if they have been deleted from Box. If you try to add a new user to the list, you will receive an error message. The reason for the error is because a deleted user is still in the list, however the error is a standard message and does not explicitly say this. So customers do not know why they are getting an error. There should be clearer messaging in the error so customers know what they need to do.

  10. Native Finder-search (MacOS) is mandatory

    from your own web-page:
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043695774-Mac-Specific-Known-Issues-for-Box-Drive

    "Mac search tools, such as Spotlight, Finder search, tags , do not return search results from Box Drive. Use Box Drive's search functionality instead."

    Box Drive is not fit for purpose, since it forces every single file-search in the user's home directory to be executed twice:

    • once in the home directory
    • then again using Box spotlight search
    • then put the 2 Finder windows side by side and do a manual inventory - unbelievable

    I frequently search my home directory. The poor search functionality is a major miss, affects my work badly

    Please look to…

  11. Box Drive compatibility with MacOS Big Sur

    It appears Box Drive uses a legacy extension no longer supported with the latest MacOS release, Big Sur.

    In addition, the new M1 based machines have been widely applauded for their performance and battery life. I assume this will translate to increased sales.

    So when you do make Box apps Big Sur compatible, I would recommend building a universal app supporting both Intel and Apple Silicon.

  12. open location

    When I copy or move an item, usually I just want to go to the location where the file has now been copied or moved to. Currently, the only option is to show file or close. If I show file, I have to wait for it to load before I can click the cross and then be in the location I want to be in. If the file is large, sometimes I have to wait for ages.

    I envisage something in Box like when you right click something on your desktop and it says "Open file location"

  17. Preview Fortran file extensions such as .f

  18. Receive Email Notification if Report Times Out

    Currently, reports initiated in Box can timeout or 10 million records or exceeds 12 hours to generate. The user does not receive any notification should this happen to know that report will not be received.

    Enhancement request would be for the user to receive email notification that report timed out.

  20. Relay Workflow to follow messages/ notifications to activities

    It would be super helpful if you could use Box Relay to let a notification follow an activity. I know that you can generate tasks, but in that case I just want to let a certain group of users know that there is new content in a folder. A notification would be the best way to do this.
