Box drive sync problem items path
Please add paths to problem items. In the Problem items box, which shows which folders could not be updated, folders are listed without the paths. So, when multiple folders are named the same thing in different trees, it is impossible to locate which folders are having the problem. I am using the most recent version of Box Drive on Mac.

Ability to remove collections from mobile
Ability to remove collection on mobile
Mobile Application doesn't allow users to remove collection. Users need to remove it from Box WebApp at this moment. It would be better to remove it within the mobile application.

Add an Undo option within Reports.
When an admin searches for files or folders that were put in Trash or Moved by a specific user, there is a need for an UNDO option. When erroneous Trash or Move occurs in a large number of files, there is no ability to remedy the error. Please add the ability to undo a users mistake or nefarious action.

Folder tree organization
No way to archive / organize folders (both shared with and created) on box without just deleting them. I have box on my desktop for work and also use the web portal occasionally. I was unable to move folders (that either were shared with me or i created) into an archived / organized manner within my Box workspace. I asked Box product support and they said it wasn't a feature at this point. I'd like to be able to organize all of the folders that I created and were shared with me without having to delete them, or let them…

Please put the tag button back on the page! I hate having to search through the drop down with the new updates. Weirdly, it appears when you highlight more than one document - but we need it back when only tagging one document!

Please create a BoxCLI that can be used by general users.
Currently, the BoxCLI is only available to administrators.
We have received requests from non-administrative Box users to do their own work from the command line.
This is a very strong request.

Box Tools: Change Cache location
Ability to customise the location of Box Tools folder
We would like to have the feature to customise the location of Box Tools folders such as logs and cache folder. We want to have those under drive of other volume letter instead of the default location under C drive. This is because the storage size of C drive can be limited.

Admin account to not consume a license
At present, an admin user consumes a paid-for subscription which is a waste of a subscription/money.
As an admin, I just perform admin tasks and don't actually use the service to share files.
Would it be possible to have an admin account which can only perform admin duties to ensure paid-for subscriptions are used by actual users?

Extend display time for the undo option
After moving a file/folder, a prompt appears to allow you to select "Undo", but we find that the prompt appears for a short time and often we find it impossible to undo the action.
We would like to see a longer display time for the undo option.

Box Task Center notification pop-up
Popup assigned tasks when users visit "All Files" page. Currently Box Task Center shows only number. To make it possible for a user to surely notice, popup is better.

Sync my desktop files on a Mac to Box
Feature suggestion: if there's any way for us to sync my desktop files on a Mac to Box - that would be HUGE for our end users. Similar to how Macs work today where content on desktop is saved to iCloud - work with Apple so that Box can be used as the content storage area of choice instead.

Apptec
We use an EMM called Apptec360 to manage our mobile devices. It would be nice if this can be supported by Box for EMM.

Remove shares no longer available after the owner was deactivated
We deactivated one user who retired. The folders he owned disappeared in Box Web for the shared users but they didn't disappear in Box drive, so users could still create files which were not saved in Box.
Could deactivated shares be updated very quickly in Box Drive to avoid that behavior please?4 votes -
Reconcile behavior between Edit and Drive after a conflict
There is different behavior between Box Drive and Box Edit when uploading after conflicted happened. We would like to change behavior as same as Box Edit. This difference might lead to be confusion for the customer.
Actual Behavior at this moment:
Box Drive
1. User A opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
2. User B opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
3. User B saves the file X via Box Drive. Upload the changes as version 2 to file X
4. User A saves the file X via Box Drive. Conflict happened.…4 votes -
Add audit tracking for Folder Settings 'Restrict collaboration to within (company)'
The information in Folder Settings, specifically the 'Restrict collaboration to within (company)' setting information would be extremely helpful if it was tracked/audited.
For example, if a folder was supposed to be an ‘Internal’–only Folder, however that setting was Unchecked, people could in theory Invite external users to folders within it which would pose a security risk.
Thus seeing who modified this setting would be very helpful.

Provide direct links for files listed in Problem Items window to the actual files in Box Drive.
When users have a large number of Problem Items (> 10) it can be a pain to find exactly where these Problem Items are. The search function doesn't work well for these files and you can't even copy the name of these files. A direct link to them would be most convenient.

map synced folders
There is a need to map all current synced folders of all users in my organization. There is no way to gether this information at the moment. Please develop a report that will be able to list all synced folders per user.

Get rid of the green 'refresh' bar when uploading a new document
Give the user access to disable the green 'refresh' pop-up bar. It’s annoying and requires to be click before you can move on. I challenge your staff to spend a day working in Box, loading and uploading docs – you’ll get tired of it VERY quickly.
Don’t need more clicks in the workflow!

Users want to add a function that allows them to select the association from the existing Box folder when they create a new folder in SFDC
This is a request for improvement about Box for salesforce. The article below describes the "Creating Record-Specific Folders" feature, but instead of creating a new folder for salesforce records, users want to associate the folder that Box has already created with the salesfore record. Users want to add a function that allows them to select the association from the existing Box folder when they create a new folder in salesforce.

Ability to prevent users from adding/deleting files and folders of a specific folder without affecting that folder's sub-folders
Example: I have a top level folder called 'Top'. Inside that folder I have two other folders 'A' and 'B'. I would like to prevent users from adding and deleting content in the 'Top' folder but still allow them to add and delete content in folders 'A' and 'B'.
