Provide API's to Shared Link Settings
A few business units feel very strongly that our configuration of defaults for Box accounts is not secure enough. They want the option for teams to opt in to a more securely provisioned account. As long as there are APIs for these account defaults and we are able to identify the users, we should be able to script it.

Disable/enable feature announcement notifications on an enterprise level for all users
This would be added to the enterprise settings for default email notifications. The users are receiving many notification and sending out instructions to all of them to change on a user level seems to be out of the question.
4 votesThis is not a priority at the moment given our roadmap commitments. We will reconsider with additional demand.

This is an edge case request. We will reconsider if there is additional demand.

Prompt to accept TOS for external users
Scenario:
An enterprise requires custom TOS to be accepted. If those TOS change, external users no longer see the folders they had access to from that company. They do not receive a message that explains why.
It would be helpful if they were directed to log in via computer and accept Terms of Service.0 votesThere are no APIs available for the mobile apps to perform TOS functionality.

Add support for browser-initiated Print Preview when "showDownload=true" is applied to preview URL
Currently when creating a preview link and using the browser's Print function, the preview (and thus printing) functionality is disabled.
It would be helpful for user experience if the user didn't have to click our printer button in the previewer (which opens a new window then uses the system print preview) and could instead use the system controls for printing (cmd-P for example) if a preview URL is appended with "showDownload=true"
0 votesNot planned. If the customer really wants, they could use our Representation APIs to build the desired flow themselves.

Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

Save-As limits
Scenario:
Using Save As to convert a .csv to excel file.When saving to my local drive (even though it is in a Box Sync folder) I maintain the programmatic capability to save the file as a different file type.
When saving to Box (even though it is the same Box Operations folder) I lose the programmatic capability to save the file as a different file type.
I do file conversion in excel multiple times a week.

Saved Searches
The ability to "save" a search and be able to go back to it at any point and the latest results would be there.

Drag & Drop Uploads to subfolders, not just current folder
In legacy UI, you could drag & drop to either the current folder OR one of the sub-folders of the current folder by hovering over it.
In Amsterdam, drag and drop is only supported for the CURRENT folder, not the subfolders.
This request is to bring back drag and drop to subfolders in the Amsterdam UI.
6 votesThis was an intentional UX change in Amsterdam.

Allow editors to overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget
Currently editors cannot overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget. It makes sense for editors to be able to change this option.
3 votesThank you for this suggestion! This is a low priority because it’s a very narrow use case. Changing this functionality does not impact a large enough user base.

This feature is not a priority at the moment given our roadmap commitments. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Option to disable notifications for collaborator invites being accepted
Users can get spammed if they send folder collaboration invites to a group and the organization's default settings are to auto-accept collaboration invites. The option to disable notifications for accepting collaborator invites would be useful in this circumstance.
15 votesThank you for your suggestion. We currently don’t have any plans to update the current email notifications flow, but will return to this suggestion later in the year. Please stay tuned!

Notes Desktop App - Allow Multiple Windows
Users may want to have multiple Notes open at the same time. Request is to allow a user to 'double click' a note in the list on the left sidebar to open it in its own window (exactly the same UX that the native Mac Notes app already has).
1 voteThis is not a priority for the team at this time. We will reconsider with additional customer demand.

Ability to send multiple shared links and change the default access setting.
My company has default settings for shared links set to "people in your company". When users want to send multiple shared links to clients they aren't able to do this in bulk because the default is "people in your company" and they aren't able to change this.
Of course they can get the individual shared links and change the setting to share it, but it would be easier if they could select everything they need and send that one email.

Notes Desktop App - Add App to Mac & Windows App Stores
We push users toward downloading software from the Mac and Windows App Stores, especially the Mac App Store as that is Apple's officially 'approved' method for downloading software to a computer.
3 votesThanks for the feedback! App store versions of our desktop app are not currently planned on our roadmap. We’ll continue to monitor and may revisit in a future planning cycle based on customer feedback.

Receive notification when transfer of content is completed
When deleting and transferring content to another user and an error is thrown, it is not clear to the user when all the content has successfully been moved due to the error message thrown.
We would like to know when all the content has finally completed so we can delete the user without any concerns.
