The ability to check the characters when setting/typing the password for shared link and account
When we're entering passwords of shared links and accounts, we want to check it by seeing the actual characters.

Is it possible for you to implement the same button in the account ligin page and the shared link setting window?

Provide BIM management in Box to access Construction market
As we are partnering with Autocad to integrate Box in there tools, it would be great to support BIM file formats, which are starting to get more and more common in construction and building management industries.

Windows App Custom Disctionary for Spell Check
Using the Box Notes Windows desktop app is awesome. A huge pain point is the spell-check feature because it lacks a custom dictionary feature. In many cases, my notes are riddled with little red spelling error-underlines because the application doesn't allow me to accept and remember frequently used words. Examples include names, places, people, companies, products, etc. The list could go on but I fell I've effectively communicated my concern.

ELIMINATE the display message " We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" " as it terrifies our customers
Display message "We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" scares our customers on the download shared link page. They think it is an ERROR and will not download the .ISO or other file that cannot be PREVIEWED. Make the message SPECIFIC to PREVIEW:
"Preview not available for this file type, click Download to continue"
or just
"Preview not available for this file type"Saying it is UNSUPPORTED means too many bad things. If this is not fixed, we will leave BOX. Seriously.
3 votesInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

"Automate Restoration of Collaboration Permissions for Deleted Users in Box"
Customer would like the ability to restore or have Box re-set collaboration permissions when a deleted user is restored. For example, if a customer accidentally deletes a user and needs them restored, they can do so through User Services, but they have to manually re-add the folder collbaorations/access. They would like Box to have a way can automate the addition of these folders for them via the Admin console or on the Box side.

Detailed content access reporting by location, client, user, etc.
We'd like to see a report in the Admin Console that shows where content is being accessed from and by whom, specifically for mobile (iOS or Android, etc.); but other information like Box Drive or Web App would also be helpful.

Report on installed Box Drive versions by user
Need a report admins can run that will show all users who have ever used Drive and what the last version of Drive they last used was. Ideally there is a Device ID or Device Name as well.
Use Case - Often admins do not have a device management system which would be used to run this report. Without that system in place OR without all devices being managed under it, admins have no visibility into what software is installed on their unmanaged users machines. Box won't be able to tell them all users who have it installed (if it…

Combine Feed with Notifications and Recents to make one seamless experience
If you could combine feed with notifications + recents into one screen. Our users find that they’re often switching back in forth between the screens; if you could have a screen with three columns including all of these items and have a way to sort them, scroll them – that would be one experience and save time flipping between pages.

Update "Box login from..." email notification
When I access Box from a new browser or device, I get "Box Login from...." email notification from Box.
Within the email body, it said "You can manage your login activity list from the Security tab and your notifications from the Notifications tab of your Account Settings." but there is no "Notifications" tab under user Account settings.
Instead there is a "Sharing" tab under which there is a section for "General Emails and Notifications". Could you please fix the wording with in the email notification body to reflect the correct tab and section. It helps the end users to get…

we'd like a way for admins to delete old comments for files owned by managed users in bulk rather than one by one for files that have a lot of activity in their side activity panels.

Enhance and support the Box Embed Widget for mobile browsers.
We outsource hosting and presenting documents to Box. We allow our users to upload documents in our app and we upload them to Box via API. Later on, when users want to view the file, we ask the Box API for an iframe URL and embed it in our app. So, in the end, no one is logged in to any box applications, because we use the API under the hood.
16 votesThank you for the submission. We are currently collecting use cases and feature requests for the Box Embed widget, and are considering it for update in a future planning cycle. We do not have a timeline for this at present, but ask you to continue to submit feedback here in the meantime.
