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.

Bulk invitation
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.

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.

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These are allowed in unpublished apps.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…

Need to be able to view group members before adding to a folder
Would be great to be able to see members of a group prior to adding them to a folder. At the moment, even those groups which are listed as being viewable by anyone in the company can't be viewed until AFTER they are added to a folder, unless someone is a group admin. It means that either someone has to contact an admin to be sure they have the right group, or they have to add the group and then check right away to make sure they added the right one.

Drive and Sync
It should be impossible to have both Box Drive & Box Sync installed and working on the same machine. An install of one should automatically be impossible until the other is removed from the machine.

DLP
When copying content from Box Drive to an external volume, Sophos DLP is unable to capture information about this event.
According to the Sophos team, this is a result of Box Drive relying on a legacy file system filter driver, CBFS.
It is suggested that Box update Box Drive to work with Windows file system minifilter drivers as opposed to CBFS. That way DLP could monitor and capture these events.
Statement from Microsoft regarding legacy file system drivers as opposed to minifilter drivers: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/ifs/blocking-file-system-filter-drivers

We would like the ability to put a specific Matadata as our home page.
We would like the ability to select certain Matadata as our home page. This would allow for us to really customize our home page to our specific needs and the ability to adjust it easily, vs using the favorites.

Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users.
Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users. We use classifications and access policies for specific domain whitelisting. We currently do not allow external collaboration with personal webmail domains for obvious reasons. But some departments like recruiting would need to share content with personal webmail domains. We would like to create a classification/access policy combo that permits this but is ONLY visible to specified users/groups. Thinking of a option like how you can whitelist relay and other features for certain users. Have that same option with classifications. That way the whole org can't use that classification just…

Ability to find a file or folder using just the ID.
Is Box working on an easier tool to lookup files and folders based off of ID?
I'd like to suggest a box tool where we can find the file and folder using just the ID. Having to run a 40+ min report on all of our files and folders anytime a user asks is very time consuming. I get 5+ requests a day.

Add Sharing info to permissions descriptors for Owner/Co-Owner and Editor
Add Sharing info to permissions descriptors.
Share for Owner/ Co-Owner and Editor also includes the ability to InviteShare for Viewer Uploader and Viewer only allows you to share a link to people in the folder. So essentially they can only ’share’ with people it has already been share with.
I’d like to see either:
- Add Invite as a descriptor for Owner, Co-Owner and Editor > I like Invite as it is explicit OR
- Change Share to Share Link to Viewer and Viewer Uploader > still a little confusing because you can’t really share w/ anyone that does not already…

Create new permission level to allow sharing without destructive privileges
Create new permissions levels in Box to provide more flexibility:
Permissions/ Roles (ie. Editor, Viewer, etc.):
There is no ability to add someone to a folder and allow them to Invite other persons without giving them destructive permissions > Edit and Delete (Editor Role) >
Viewer Inviter (not sure I like the name, but it goes well w/ the previous request) > Upload, download, preview and Invite
This would allow the user to invite others, but not have destructive permissions. I could actually make two new roles and change Viewer Uploader:
Editor Lite > Upload, download, preview, invite, share and…

Synchronize changes between Box Edit and Box Drive for Excel
The file which is referred from external, if we edit , save download and upload, we need to save original Excel from Box Edit. The customer does not want to open Edit only for this.
For example, there are two excel ExcelA and ExcelB. Excel B is referring the data from ExcelA.
ExcelA was created via Box Drive and ExcelB was from Box Edit.
If Excel A was modified, then open ExcelB, but the modification is not reflected to ExcelB.

Change the background color when selecting collaborator in @mention function
We would like to request to change the background color when selecting collaborator in @mention function
When searching for collaborators using @mention function and when the target collaborator has been selected, the background color becomes "light grey" and it is hard to tell if it is already selected.
