Support for setting the save location to hard drive directory such as "My Documents" instead of "My Documents/Box Sync"
This would help save the trouble of having to re-map all of their computer programs save locations to a new Box Sync folder.

This is not on the roadmap for 2019, but is a great suggestion that we may look into in the future.

Legal Holds based on Metadata
Allow the ability to put content on Legal Holds based on metadata attached to the document. Customers may utilize metadata moreso than custodian or date to identify content to be placed on Legal Hold
7 votesAs metadata usage is currently quite low, and because this is possible via the API, this is not currently planned for support within the Governance UI. We may reconsider with more customer feedback or higher usage of metadata.

Open With: Disabling Office Online view for specific users
We only want to disable for some of our users and not impact our entire company.
If users use this option for documents created by content authoring application, they will not be able to properly edit these documents or view the correct content as the JavaScript API will not work at this time.

Allow users to suppress problem items they do not have permissions to fix
For example, you are a Viewer Uploader on a folder that contains restricted Windows characters.
As a Viewer Uploader, you do not have permissions to rename the folder.
Now, your BFD client will forever complain about this folder.
5 votesWe currently do not have this planned on our roadmap.
We will be suppressing server-side problem item (files that cannot sync to Box Drive from Box.com) notifications starting in Box Drive v2.4 in an effort to reduce the noise while we work towards solving this problem in a better way.

Admin report or interface showing exactly where in a given file the Upload Policy was violated.
We are leveraging the Policies engine to create Upload Policies to detect and prevent PII from being uploaded into Box. When the upload policy exception is triggered, we would like to see a report or somewhere on the screen exactly where in the document the file violated the policy.
Ideally, by knowing what exactly triggered the policy, we would then use the 'Mark as False Positive' feature in the Content Manager Quarantine location to improve the Policy Engine's accuracy accordingly.

Update user endpoint to allow admins to retrieve a list of all unconfirmed users
Currently, admins cannot retrieve a list of all users whose primary email addresses are not confirmed. Admins may get confused if they try to edit a user whose primary address is not yet confirmed, as this currently triggers a permissions/403 error.

File type icons need to be different between audio and video files.
In the new Web App, audio and video files have the same icon, whereas in the legacy interface- the icons were different.
This is small but extremely important since we need to be able to see those differences from a quick glance and this is preventing the rest of our account from moving into the new UI.

Option to delete the folder alongside Permanently delete content policy
We auto-delete completed projects after 30 days and would like to automate this process with retention policies.
Currently, a Permanently delete content policy only deletes the content within a folder, however, we need the folder itself deleted because it contains the confidential name of the project.
2 votesThis is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers. We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.

Make Box for Desktop unmount the "Box" folder if the computer is locked.
Did another test to see if Box Desktop would disconnect if I locked my computer- it does not. My box is available to a user with Admin rights. This could be a potential security risk. A slim risk, however; I believe a fix would be to have box desktop disconnect at lock or switch user. Not sure if that is possible, but it might appease some users worried about their data being accessible, by another user with admin rights.
