Ability to set Lock timeframe when using Open With
When a file is opened via the web app (i.e., Open With Word), the UI should allow a user to set a time limit for the lock. Currently, it only allows the user to click a check mark to indefinitely lock the file.

Maintain Metadata when Copying a File
Currently, Metadata (custom metadata and applied metadata templates/values) that's been added to a file is NOT maintained when a file is copied in Box. This request is to add the functionality - perhaps as an option in the 'Copy' flow - to copy a file's Metadata as well.
32 votesThere is a toggle you can set (via the V2 API) on a template to indicate that you’d like the MD to remain on item copy. See “copyInstanceOnItemCopy” at https://developer.box.com/reference/resources/metadata-template/.

Templates - Raise Max. Templates per EID to More than 50
EIDs are currently limited to a max of 50 Metadata Templates. This request is to significantly raise the limit of the total number of Metadata Templates per EID.
4 votesWe have now raised the limit to 500 templates per enterprise.

Support Contact Info under Custom Setup
Support site URL only allows admins to input lowercase letters. The error message is generic and says 'Invalid URL format' which caused some confusion for the admin. Might be helpful to make this requirement more clear since uppercase letters were permitted in the old custom setup.

"Save As" different file format option from Office applications
Currently you can only save the document to Box as it is, but end users are accustomed to being able to save documents as a different file format from within Word/Powerpoint/Excel (especially saving to pdf format). Current functionality means users must "save as" locally first, and then upload to Box which is an extra step compared to what they're currently doing.

External Collaborator Reporting
Have the ability to export the list of external collaborators with the items they are collaborating on (which the external users tab already shows).
9 votesThis information already exists in the Collaboration report. This report lists collaborations (managed and external users) on folders owned by that enterprise. Collaboration type is also called out so you can tell if the user is managed, external or if they have access via a group.

Box for EMM email signature includes link to regular box application download page
Box for EMM application includes an email signature "Sent from the Box app. Install the app here." The linked signature hyperlinks to https://www.box.com/box-for-devices/ which does not include access to the EMM application.
Interestingly, links generated from the regular mobile app (non emm) do not include the same signature. The user experience is inconsistent when receiving links from the EMM app and the regular mobile app.
1 voteThis is a bug which we’re fixing in the next EMM release.
