  1. Drag and Drop between two browser tabs of the Box Webapp

    Allow drag and drop of files and folders from the Box Webapp on one browser tab to the Box Webapp in another browser tab. We often need to search through a large list of project related files to find the place we would like to store information that was created in multiple task related folders. We want to be able to open a task related folder on one tab and the project folder on another tab and then just drag and drop between the tabs. Otherwise, we end up re-searching for the project in the copy and move menu numerous…

  2. Access the Admin Console via the iPad application

    Users with a co-admin or primary admin designation should be able to access the Admin Console when logged into the Box for iPad application (vs having to use the web browser)

  5. Add exFAT file system support

    Add support for Box Sync to work with exFAT formatted file systems (this is the best file system when trying to swap between PC and Mac).

  6. Subdomain of shared folder should match folder owner

    There is a difference in the URL that is actually displayed to collaborators.

    The custom sub domain of the tenant to which user A belongs is “aaa.app.box.com“.
    The custom subdomain of the tenant to which user B belongs is “bbb.app.box.com“.

    User B was invited as a collaborator to a folder owned by user A.

    The URL of the file placed in that folder is

    User A will see “aaa.app.box.com/file/67022264912“.
    User B will see “bbb.app.box.com/file/67022264912“.

    Can the URL be changed so that the sub domain matches the owner of the folder? When collaborators go to a folder owned by another enterprise,…

  8. Timesheet

    Dropbox Paper has a feature for a timesheet. I want to use such a tool in Box. It would be better for an easily planning of Projects with a little calendar or something like that. It would be great if you can develope such a tool.

  9. Enhance deprovisioning via API

    We want to use the API to see who’s collaborating with someone who’s been rolled out of the university, as part of deproviosing script. Then we want to look up collaborations of user being deprovisioned and break all collaborations when a user is rolled out

  12. Share Link Always Enabled

    The Share link should always be enabled or give us the option to have it always on. We do not use the collaborate function of Box but always use the "share link" function. To now add a step for us to use that function is not thinking of your current users uses.

  14. clearer highlighting needed when selecting a file on webapp

    This is a request on how to display/express "Selected file(s)".
    In the current specification, selected files glow blue(List View) or is surrounded by a blue border(Grid View).
    There were opinions from some users that these expression is hard to see and difficult to distinguish.

    Opportunities to utilize Box are increasing and they are being used in various places, by various people.

    For use in extremely bright/dark places, and for people with sight problems, please improve the way of expression.

  15. Allow the option to transfer collaboration permissions when deleting a user.

    Allow the option to transfer collaboration permissions when deleting a user. Currently, when deleting a user, it only gives us the option to transfer ownership of files and folders they own. But if a user were to undergo a name change, we would have to manually give their new Box account the same collaborative permissions as their old Box account (Co-owner, Editor, Viewer Uploader, Previewer Uploader, Viewer, Previewer, Uploader).

    When deleting their Box account, Co-owner, Editor, Viewer Uploader, Previewer Uploader, Viewer, Previewer, and Uploader permissions currently do not transfer over.

  16. Add User Activity Reporting for Folder Settings Changes

    Right now, there is no way to tell who is enabling or disabling notification settings by accident (rather than managing their own user level notifications).

  17. Password Resets by Administrator

    This weekend, our organization had an internet outage that stopped email from delivering for four days. I had a user whose password expired and due to the password reset process being wholly dependent on email, the user was unable to work in Box, which is where all their files are, so they couldn't work. I setup a call back and was told that the process needed email in order to manually reset the user's password.

    There needs to be a way where administrators can reset a user's password in the admin console. There are times when email is not a…
