  1. Improve consistency of UX between Folder & File metadata in web app

    Right now (July 2019) in the FLMD public beta, the UX for Folder level metadata is very inconsistent (and arguably more cumbersome) than File level metadata.

    For Folder level metadata, the metadata modal only displays after clicking "Edit", which is unintuitive since most users will just be viewing and not editing the Folder metadata.

  3. Set number of files displayed

    Allow a setting so that we can choose the number of files/folders displayed per page so we don't have to click through 4 pages to get to the end.

  4. "Transcript cards" playback stop function

    Currently, clicking on the time of entry in the Transcript cards allows the audio to be played, but it will continue to play past the end time. I think it will be easy to use if it is designed to stop playback when it reaches the end time.

  5. Enhance Metadata dropdown widget

    With the version of BOX - if you add a metadata dropdown - the user interface is fairly limited. For example if the dropdown has more than about 25 items - you not only cannot see additional items; you cannot even search for them.

    Ideally where would be a scrollbar on the dropdown or the ability to search for options contained within the dropdown.

  6. Prioritize specific files for upload

    Hi, as someone who has to uploads and shares a lot of large image files through box, each over 1gb, it would be nice to have a way to prioritize which files get uploaded first.

  7. Hide or disable unavailable options for non-primary admins

    The interface for secondary admin accounts is extremely confusing. It should at minimum have the SSO section disabled with a note explaining that only the primary admin account can modify it, or even better display the settings but greyed out. Having an active button to initiate SSO configuration for an organization that already has SSO enabled made me worry that SSO had broken in some way, or that our Box configuration was in an inconsistent/unstable state at risk of breaking if I made any changes.

  8. Improve Find in Page with infinite scroll

    The in-browser search (Ctrl + F) doesn’t let us highlight matching words all at once. As you scroll, words that are loaded later are not highlighted. Once the search reach the end of page, it fails to return to the top of the page. We want the ability to highlight all the matching words that are displayed in the same page at once.

  9. Select new save location if Box Edit save fails

    When Box Edit fails to save the file, it saves the data to Desktop.
    We would like to change this to other folder.
    Please consider to add the function which allow the customer to change the folder where the file will be saved when Edit fails.

  13. Full path to the file in notification e-mails

    I'd like to ask for adding full path to the file (especialy first level) in notification e-mails to use Outlook rules. Starting this year everybody is a member of many BOX groups - less or more important. It would be very usefull to split the notifications into folders.

  14. Allow admins to block external users from using MFO in Drive

    Create an option to allow enterprise admin to block Box Drive for external users, on per user basis.
    We have this feature in Box Sync (for managed users only) and need this feature to be extended to external users for Box Drive, due to security reason: Compared to downloading from Box Webapp , it is very easy for external users to get a lot of our contents with MFO. It is out of our control and we cannot guarantee as well if external user’s machines are secure enough (HDD encryption, antivirus software etc.).”

  15. Add a Folder Viewer role

    Along with the current 7 access levels, adding the “folder viewer”level which the user can see ancestral folders(with no access to those folders).

    If a collaborator is invited from 2 different sub-folders with the same name, the folder name on the invitee’s first level shows the same. This can confuse users and might cause uploading/editing contents at the wrong destination.

    Once this access level is deployed, the collaborator can clarify the root folder without having to confirm its contents.

    Viewing folder paths can be done with canviewpath in the API but we want this to be possible in…

  16. Cleanup and Enhance the file/folder webhook events to cover all the happy paths (new file, new file version, restore previous version)

    As a Box Application Developer I want to be able to receive a unique, webhook events for the following scenarios:

    1. User uploads new file (brand new binary object placed into a Box Folder) - Folder based event (exists: FILE.UPLOADED)
    2. User uploads a new file version - File AND Folder based event (e.g. FILE_NEW.VERSION)
    3. User restores a previous file version - File AND Folder based event (e.g. FILE_RESTORE.VERSION)

    As the owner of an enterprise application that has deep integration in the BOX platform, it is surprising that I have no way to use the Webhooks to monitor files for new versions…

  17. As a Box user I want to be able to specify the starting page for a file using the Box Embed Widget so that I do not have to create multiple

    Background:

    Whenever I have a multi-page document that I wish to embed on a Wiki or Web page I have to create multiple, physical copies of that file (and keep them in sync) when I want a specific page to be shown on the widget.

    Business Impact:

    Reduced issues and time wasted with having to maintain multiple physical documents that have to be created in order to show specific pages on wiki's and web sites.

  18. Displaying bookmarks as thumbnails of the jpgs the bookmarks link to

    Team members find it helpful to comb through thumbnails of jpg images in a Box folder all at a glance. For some purposes, we would like team members to have access to a folder of bookmarks that each link to a jpg image, instead of having access to a folder with actual jpg images. However, with access to such a folder of bookmarks, each individual bookmark displays as a bookmark iconic image of a chain link. With this, team members cannot just comb through thumbnail jpg images all at a glance as they would if they were looking at a…

  20. iPad Bluebeam integration: Allow edits to be made on web instead of download

    When a user opens Box in Bluebeam application (via our integration with them) on web, you can make your edits + save back to Box. This is not working the same on iPad: to do this, you have to download it to make edits (this is specific to iPad).
