Support more preview fonts
Zinc Group uses fonts that are currently not supported for Box web UI preview, Klavika and Stag. Since these fonts are used extensively in the company's approved document templates, they wish to have them added to the list of supported fonts for preview.

File Request Scripting
Customer would like to use File Request instead of FTP, however, there is no way to script a automatic process to upload via file request.
We have a vendor that needs to upload files to us. They have an automated/scripted process using FTP so wanted to know if there was a way to do the same via File Request, otherwise it would be a manual process.

Share Modal
The dropdown when you click a Share button to invite someone displays the permission descriptions. The dropdown when you click the person already in a folder does not. It would be nice to have consistency across the UI. Anytime a collaborator appear listed and I click on their permissions, it should include the fin text explaining what each permissions allows them to do.

Improve wording on Box Edit confirmation prompt
Improve wording on Box Edit confirmation prompt
When a file is opened with Box Edit from UI elements, we display a confirmation prompt that asks user to proceed or not (this is UI elements only and not displayed when opening file from webapp). Currently, the prompt lets you choose approve/reject, but we want this text changed to OK/cancel (just like other Windows apps).

Alert users to communication failures between box and Office Online
Three times in the last two months, we have lost hours of edits to box files made in PowerPoint Online. Box’s position is that this is a communication failure on the Microsoft side: box passed the file to Microsoft and Microsoft failed to pass the file back. The edits made are lost with no recovery possible.
Since Microsoft has published its auto-save frequency for all of its integration partners (see https://wopi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/scenarios/coauth.html), could box implement a process to check for the auto-save in the window specified by Microsoft, and alert the end user if it’s not occurring? If box sees…

Tags shortcut removed in new UI
I am requesting a feature that was already present in the old UI. I worked with support to determine that feature has been eliminated. There was a shortcut in the top right where you could quickly add tags. That feature is now gone in the new UI. Some of our users used that button heavily. Now we are forced to use the more options, or right click which is a couple more steps, each time the user wants to mark a file as read.
Also, there was a button at the top that allowed you to move files to a…

I’m uploading a large directory tree with Box Drive, and I’d like to know the status of the files being transferred. I’ve been reading about this in the support area of their web site.
From the Box website, it appears that the way to do this is by looking at icons next to files which change color.
There are two issues with this:
I am blind and use screen reading software that can’t distinguish icons. The Box people need to know about this accessibility problem.
I’d rather have an overall report. But there’s nothing available in the Box Drive UI.1 vote -
Copy file from relay should version the target, not create a new file
We have a release workflow, where documents are being copied to a shared environment after they have been approved. This works well for the first version of the document.
However, if we change the document and send it through the approval process again, Box creates a new document at the target area. Box does NOT create a new version of the existing document.
Since this process is really key to creating "Quality Managed" documentation, Box relay should offer to version an existing document. Defaulting to creating a new document, makes Box unusable for these kind of approvals.

Show full filename in Box Search
Box Search cuts off long file names. If the file name is prefaced with the date or other info, the information one actually needs from the file name may be hidden from the user.
This can be solved by making the Box Search window larger, making it as large as the longest filename, or by showing the filename when a user mouses over the filename or file icon, or when a user uses the arrow keys to select (but not yet open) a file in the Box Search results.

Folder colors
In Box it is not very easy to see what foders are shared externally. There are small globe icons on the collaborators, but if that list is too long, the external collaborator might not show up.
Apart from that: the list of collaborators is not visible in Box Drive.
Box should introduce a new Folder type (different color, different icon) to show that information in this folder is shared with external collaborators. This functionality should be available across all clients (Web, Drive, Mobile).
30 votesThank you for the suggestion. 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!
