Perform full file and folder inventory for users that includes the folders/files which they can access
Requesting to perform full file and folder inventory for users that includes the folders/files they have access to, not just the ones they own. Include fields like – date modified, created date, and any other file attributes normally included in the file and folder report.
The File and Folder reporting mechanism but it’s lacking features to perform an inventory across hundreds of specific folders (in an environment where a lot of folders have the same name).
The content manager, only reports on files that users own and they don’t own files in our taxonomy. The initial view looks good as…

Add justify alignment option to Box Notes
It is possible to align content to the left, right and centre but there is no ability to justify content which is very common for many types of documents.

Support for setting the save location to hard drive directory such as "My Documents" instead of "My Documents/Box Sync"

Sync scans everything even when only adding 1 or 2 files. Include an option to only update Box Sync with the recently chosen files to prevent an extended scanning process

Apply disposition action based on "Move" date
We would like to move active projects to a completed projects folder that deletes content after 30 days.
The disposition action should occur 30 days after the project is closed and the folder is moved, rather than when the files were initially uploaded or last edited.
We cannot apply a policy to the active folder because we need to be able to delete files.

Slack: Sync 'Comments' on Files Between Box & Slack
Right now, when using the Box + Slack integration, Slack imports a 'pointer' to a Box file (when a shared link is posted), and then keeps that file's search index updates based on changes that happen in Box.
REQUEST: Extend this integration further to sync any Comments made on the file between Box and Slack.
In Slack, I can add a Comment to the imported Box file by clicking 'add comment', and in Box I can 'add Comment' -- it'd be nice if the comment added to the file directly in Slack also synced and was added automatically as a…

Customize location of new Box Note upon creation
Users shall be able to create a new box note while navigating through folders and have this note save back to the current location within their account.
User shall be able to create a new note from a template, and have it save back to the folder they are navigating in.
Currently, when notes are created via web app, they are saved back to a "My Box Notes" folder. This is not always useful, especially when using templates. Templates are likely to be reused by users and saved in multiple folders, not in a single Box Notes folder.

Add ability to localize Metadata attributes and values
When adding new values/attributes to a metadata template, the same value is used by all users regardless of user's locale.
For companies that have users in a wide range of geographies, it would be helpful to be able to give metadata attributes/values different names for different locales.

Group permission discrepancies between the API and the groups UI
Currently, the Groups API endpoint allows for more granular permissions for collaborating and viewing content ("invitabilitylevel" is used to determine who can invite the group to collaborate on folders; "memberviewability_level" is used to determine who can view group members). It's possible for the values for each of these to be configured independently.
The new Groups UI conflates these two parameters into one setting: "Permission Setting".
