  3. Allow 'show folder' button when multiple items are moved/copied

    Multiple items are always moved/copied to the same location, therefore a user should be able to navigate to where those items were moved as you can with single file moves/copies.

  4. Get a Link in Microsoft Teams integration

    Playing with Microsoft Teams, I discovered that for files stored in the generic/default section of Teams, you can "Get a link" to copy the hyperlink for the file to your clipboard. When I add the integrated Box storage feature, though, files there do not offer the "Get a link" option. It really needs it, otherwise convenience will steer people to NOT use Box for storage.

  6. Add ability for end-user to clear Box Edit cache in UI

    We pass this page along to users from time to time to resolve Box Edit cache issues. Please add a UI element that they can use to do this.

  7. Publish a changelog of Box Drive updates

    The blog is nothing close to release notes and version history. I’m looking for something more industry standard. Please put that in as a feature request. Knowing, for example when 2.0.70 and 2.1.105 were officially released (date) and the changelog (massaged for general consumption, if not raw) si what these are for and these press releases on the blog are not a replacement for technical info.

  9. Allow users to create a new folder name without changing it for others

    This would allow users to create a custom view of their own content. Only way to do something similar is through bookmarks, which are cumbersome and less useful

  10. Add justify alignment option to Box Notes

    It is possible to align content to the left, right and centre but there is no ability to justify content which is very common for many types of documents.

  11. Allow upload policy to move to folder instead of quarantine

    instead of flagging/quarantine custom words/numbers with a policy – also would like the option to put those items in a folder.
    - Use Case: work with government agencies and are uploading content to box with SSN and other secure documents so would like those to automatically go to a specific file if item is flagged

  14. Expose ability to restore versions of files via API

    It would be beneficial to expose this information via API when interacting with file versions to enable this for App Users via a portal

  15. Updated "Modified By" when restoring version of a file

    The “Modified By” field doesn’t update when an old version is promoted – but the “Modified Date” field does. If one field updates, both should. If we are using the file’s metadata for one field, we should use this for both.

  17. Add a threaded ‘Reply’ button to comments and @mentions

    When you are @mentioned, replying to the sender with @mention requires many clicks. It would be simpler to be able to reply to the sender in one click (i.e. add a comment with sender already @mentioned)

  18. Document placeholder artefact

    Expected document is a recurrent requirement for many scenarios (board management, underwriting, bid management...). We could add this new artefact, it could have a description, be linked to assignees and have an expected date with automated reminder.

  19. Allow Search API call to search using wildcards

    if I wanted to get the item ids of all files within a users account, I would have to run the Get Folder Items for all subfolders. If there’s a large folder tree, it would either take to long to iterate through all subfolders or I would run into an API rate limitation. It would be easiest if the Search API call can allow searching using wildcards so it would just take one API call to get a list of all item ids.

  20. Ability to hide the modified date in Content Explorer
