Cancel all uploads
A button that allows us to cancel all uploads via the web console. If we mistakenly drag and drop the wrong folder to be uploaded, it would be nice if we could cancel the entire upload instead canceling each individual file. (especially for really big folders with thousands of files)

API to sync folders for users.
If we could sync folders directly through our internal web app it would cut several steps out of user workflows. I would love to put a sync slider next to the job line so they could sync directly from this screen.
Specifically, I am talking about leveraging the tools via APIs. So having an API we could leverage to sync folders down for users.
4 votesThis request cannot practically be implemented as an API. A client needs to control the state of local items on an endpoint such as a user’s computer, much like the Box Drive or Box Mobile clients do today. The only planned supported means for such synchronization capabilities are the Box Drive and Mobile clients.

Better visibility for file metadata
We would like for metadata to be more visible next to the file on the preview screen instead of having to go to the metadata section and clicking on view.
If metadata could be more easily accessible on the file, as well as when you copy/move the file within Box, it would be helpful if it went with the file too.

Additional approval for large delete actions
We'd like the ability to add an optional multi factor authentication or admin approval while deleting files or folders above some specific amount data e.g 50 GB.
5 votesThank you for the suggestion! At the moment there is no plan for this feature. We may look into this in the future.

Ability to edit the "company" field

Custom 401 error message for unauthenticated users
I need to have a custom message shown to unauthenticated users which will show them how to gain access. How can I create this page, or create a redirect to a custom page so my users don't see the ugly error message.

Customize watermark to include version, update date
I’d like to use the watermark or a similar feature to print the Version Number and Last Update Date on PowerPoint and PDF files. I understand you can view this in Version History, but I’d like to see it super-imposed on the content.

Improve the help text for “Allow Folder Owners to Extend The Expiration Date”
Feedback on info bubble that shows up in the admin console when setting collaborations to expire:
because we have the box checked to : “Allow Folder Owners to Extend The Expiration Date” – with your info bubble specifically stating “Allowing user to modify settings will apply these settings as a default setting..”
While I’m no linguist, I believe that in this context, default means this setting can be modified, especially as that info bubble continues with “..Not allowing these settings to be modified will enforce these settings on your users.”
A better info bubble could be wanting here

Mask tenant ID
We're concerned that the full tenant ID is showing in the admin console and could be compromised if the account has been compromised. We'd like to somehow hide/mask some part of the tenant ID like how a credit card appears (as an example) in any system where only last 4 digits are being shown.

Manage default Box Drive install folder in Admin Console
To configure the Box Drive folder location, registry keys need to be pushed to all workstations. The customer would like it if there was a setting in the Box Admin Console where you could set the new folder paths for Windows and Mac, and then when a user logs into Box Drive, it would automatically update the registry. This would save admins from having to worry about new users or anyone they might miss with a manual push.

Apply policies to duplicate files
Identify duplicate files in Box, and apply any policies in place onto all duplicates
9 votesWill need to understand the use case more (e.g., examples of duplicates to understand customer’s definition of a duplicate, how a duplicate can be created, etc.).

Serial skill execution
Currently box executes all registered skills in parallel. In some cases it would be usefull to have the results of one skill feed another. This would require an order to be associated to registered skills, and a mechanism for signaling completion (which should not be metadata being written since there are cases where no new metadata updates occur or there is an error in execution)

Download 'cart' or 'shopping basket'
A basket feature would be nice – Sometimes we have to select one or two files from multiple folders, and to have a basket as placeholder before downloading would be useful.
This be something similar to like when you online shop. Instead of “buying items” you are selecting the items you want to download from different locations and then selecting download.
