exit
Leave "marked for offline" files reachable by a folder on the hard-drive when you exit Box.
It would be nice if the existence of "non-offline" files was still shown, just that they wouldn't be openable.2 votes -
Drag-and-drop file uploads in any portion of white space in a given folder
Files that are dragged from computer to browser window are not successfully uploaded to Box Drive folders unless they are dragged atop already existing files. Would you be able to expand the drag-and-drop's "catch region" to include all of the Box Drive folders' white space in a browser window? Thank you!

Metrics for tracking most oft-accessed files on a Box Drive shared among a team, department, etc.
OneDrive's tallying of the number of times particular files are accessed and by whom helped direct organization efforts for cloud storage and understand staff behavior. The Box Drive does not have a similar quantitative feature, as far as I know. Possible to create such a feature, to track who, when, and how often particular files and folders are used by staff permitted access? Thank you!

Ability to see activities tied to pinpoints on the Geographic Activities page.
The admin console shows a worldwide map of activities, and lists number of activities by location. It would be very helpful to be able to get more information on the activity (file/user/etc.) as it will help ensure network is secure. (e.g.: should I be asking: "Is an employee on vacation in Kuala Lumpur, using a VPN, or is something else going on.)

Box Reporting - Add name of the Zip file output
Box Reporting - Add name of the Zip file output to the UAR when numerous files are downloaded simultaneously. This would make tracking the activity of downloads from Box to computer much easier.

Admin Console - User File Search - Results Download
Admin Console - Content - User File Search - Results Download enhancement
Allow administrators the ability to download the full user file search from Admin Console -> Content section. The results output would contain all fields present on the current search results page. The output would be in CSV format.
This feature would be useful for eDiscovery purposes.

Asign tasks in Office documents (Word, Powerpoint...)
I'm new to BOX (coming off business based on Google Platform) and have a few tips that would be awesome to have.
This is about collaborating better in teams and working on the document together.
Is there a chance to higlight a text in the Word/ Powerpoint - and asign that highlighted part to a team member? So on 1 slide I could potentially asign parts to different people to work on...
Thank you, Michael

Integrate with SEISMIC
If Seismic is the new go-to platform for documents, Box should be able to integrate with Seismic. Currently posting and editing and tagging are done redundantly in both places. Further, there are other issues with assets being modified, expired, file name changes, etc.

Show classification of files in Box Drive
We use Classifications to indicate restrictions on who a file can be shared with, e.g. confidential information supplied by third party that cannot be shared with other parties involved in a project. While classification is displayed within Box, there is no indication of the restriction if the file is accessed through Box Drive which could lead to unauthorized disclosure.
44 votesThank you for the suggestion. We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap. We will place this in our backlog as we continue evaluating ideas to improve Box Drive.
Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

expired in value greater than 3600
I see the sample response for refresh token, it shows "expires_in": 3964,
Which I thought it would be 3600 as the max value.
Is it a mistake or it can be any value?1 vote -
Sort Drive Search results by metadata
Currently you are unable to sort results in Drive Search, and you need to rely on searching based on keywords and sorting through the limited results. It would be helpful to sort on available metadata, similar to a traditional File Explorer, like name and last modified in order to better find that content we are looking for.

Box for Office causing “Outlook detected a COM add-in problem” . We know that there is a workaround by modifying the registry keys. However, modifying the registry keys a very hard change for the end user so that the customer is asking us to improve this as product.

Past/Completed Tasks and Comments Deletion
Completed tasks stay in the activity chain on any given file. This along with a long list of comments stalls the activity window while it tries to cache all of the past and current comments and tasks. Currently we have our users deleting old comments but we can't delete completed tasks. We need a way to delete old history in the activity window for any given file or your system needs to cache the activity so it appears instantly, sometimes it takes more than five minutes to be able to make new comments/tasks around a file.

Google
Integrate Box as an additional "drive" in Google Drive. This would allow people to easily share documents from within Google Drive using Box. All of my templates are in Drive, I do real-time collaboration in Google Drive, none of which is currently doable in Box.

It is really frustrating when sharing a file & writing an explanation that is deemed "too long" - so your system just deletes it & there's n
sharing with email limit: word limit too low & without warning message is lost

Box Drive status bar icon
When clicking the "box" icon pinned to the windows status bar, it opens up a search pop-up. Using Box Sync, clicking the icon pinned to the status bar would open up a new windows explorer window.
With box drive, you have to right-click the icon, then click "open box folder". I would like the option to change this to function like Box Sync did.

ability to add co-owner to an individual file
It would be nice if users could also assign a co-owner to an individual FILE (that is, not a folder).

Ability to disable the feature to send shared link by email.
When the customer send email to external user, it is necessary to put superiors in CC according to their company rules.
This feature does not match the company rules because it can not put anyone in CC, so they want to disable it to prevent users send email without approve.10 votes
