  1. Select folders from hard drive to sync with box

    Rather than syncing to a separate Box folder on my desktop, I would an application that would make it able to flag folders and files that already exist on my hard drive. I would very much prefer to be able to open my Windows Explorer and right-click on a folder and make a selection that would automatically sync that folder from where it is in my hard drive to Box.

    Thank 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!

  3. Select folders from hard drive to sync with box

    It would be very convenient to have an application that would allow a person to go in from their Windows Explorer to flag folders that already exist on the hard drive that would be synced and updated on Box. I would strongly prefer this to having to sync things the other way around, as I consider my hard drive to be my "home base". For instance, I would like to just right-click on my work folder located on my hard drive, and then select an option that would flag it to be synced with my box account so that any…

  4. Convert all notification email contain "app.box.com" link to "ent.box.com" under BVE

    Some notification email such as "Email Uploads completed" contain "app.box.com" link even for enterprises that have Box Verified Enterprise enabled.

    They should be converted to "ent.box.com" link in order to access them from Internal network.

  6. Box-Netsuite Bundle

    For the Netsuite/Box bundle, it would be better to not require the user to choose whether to create a Box folder or use the default on each folder. This should be a setting that the administrator can choose.

  10. support the preview of other types of compressed files such as .7z, .TAR, and .XIP

    It's very helpful that Box now supports previewing Zip Files as noted at https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044196713-Previewing-Zip-Files, and we would like to know if there are plans to support the preview of other types of compressed files such as .7z, .TAR, and .XIP?

  11. Right now, Box's search engine is kinda useless

    So, i contacted Box through chat to ask why the search engine wasn't looking for the specific input i searched for, and among other things i was told that the engine will look for files/folders which match ANY of the words in your input and has no capability of looking for files containing ALL of the words searched for which most search engine have, be it web search or OS search.

    So, here's the problem, we have around 10.000 files uploaded to box, and lots of them share several words which indicate the client's name or what the file contains.…

  12. Extend auto collaboration per folders only

    Hi team,

    Submitting this feature request in behalf of user, requesting to add their visibility to extend auto collaboration per specific folders only.

    There's a similar post on this subject, but not exactly the same. We can set an expiration date for external collaborators at the enterprise level, which is essential to security, and should be set as the "default" setting at the enterprise level. However, there are certain circumstances where a folder would need to be shared long term with many people, and the Box owner account should have the ability to do one of two things, or both:

  13. Allow Box to work with iOS Files app without having to disable sitewide security passcodes

    When using the Files App on iOS, you cannot connect to Box (as a location) if your enterprise settings require a passcode to use the Box app. Surely there must be some way to achieve this functionality without having to turn off passcode security for the whole firm.

  14. Backups

    It would be very helpful if there was a way to automatically back up all my files on Box.com into a different Box account or possibly onto another site or server somewhere.

    I say this because I would like to give certain employees the ability to delete so they can reorganize my files, but I'm concerned that some day someone will somehow accidentally delete all my files. It would be nice to have period backups that I could rely on automatically.

    We have multiple clients that we give access to several folders. I'd like to be able to send a single collaboration invitation, rather than inundating their mail with multiple invitations.

  17. Integrate with best-of-breed content lifecycle management (CLM) tools

    This is not native Box capability. Integrate with Conga, Aptus, or Ironclad would help bring this functionality into Box. Used by Legal, Deal Desk, and Procurement.

  19. install selective sync on mobile app

    In the mobile app. for Box Sync, only sync the files I have marked to sync in Box.com. I have NO need to see all files in our entire organization and it is a waste of space on my phone,

    the request is to have selective syncing like on a laptop.

  20. Allow http://127.0.0.1 as redirect_url in published box apps

    It is currently disallowed to use redirect_urls of the form http://127.0.0.1 in published apps.

    These give the error "insecureredirecturi".

    These are allowed in unpublished apps.

    Having a redirect to 127.0.0.1 is very useful for native apps which run on the users computer (eg rclone https://rclone.org ).

    It is pretty much impossible to do https to 127.0.0.1 - you can't get a valid certificate for it. See this link for details: https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost/ - and also for reasons why using http://127.0.0.1 is treated as secure by browsers.

    I'll describe how rclone, a native CLI app works. Rclone runs on the…
