  1. Change Geographic Activity highlighted country from blue to red

    When the geographic activity shows the activity of a country it is circled blue. Can you change the circle blue into something like red because it is sometimes hard to see the circle since the colour is similar to the map.

  2. Speed displayed in grid view

    I would like to request an improvement so that even if it is displayed in the grid view, it will be previewed in a few seconds.
    It takes time to find the desired image file in the grid view, which is inefficient.
    For example, if you display a folder with a large number of files in the grid view, it will be previewed little by little every few files, and it took about 2 minutes to display 374 files.

  5. Make metadata attributes required on templates

    We need a way to make selected attributes required custom templates, so that when the templates are applied to Folders/Files the user can not save the metadata form bypassing the required metadata.

  6. Additional requirement to know in advance how long it will take to cascade metadata

    I would like to improve the time to add the Box metadata instance to the folder.This section explains the background of the improvement request.

    The following article from Box states that the time to complete adding a metadata instance to a folder varies depending on the size of the structure.

    References:
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195873-Cascading-metadata-in-folders

    ・Excerpt from the above article
    What is the expected time from file upload to metadata cascade?

    Applying metadata via the cascade policy is not an immediate action, and may take some time depending on the size of the folder structure.

  7. Bring back WebDav support

    Please bring back WebDav support. It had better performance than Box Drive or Sync and was easier to setup for Linux or Windows.

  8. Co-Admin permission - Manage Shield Lists

    It would be good to be able to delegate the update of Sheild lists so that someone can amend who is in a list without providing access to other shield functions.

    For example, a list of people email addresses that can change because external parties that we collaborate change but we want to be able to remove/add people.

  9. classification labeling time lag when item added to a folder with classification

    When adding items to a folder with defined classification, there is a time lag (appx. 5 min) to reflect the classification to added items. (we know its 20min for 40K items but still we want to remove the time lag)
    During the lag, a user can temporarily operate the items outside the policy defined on its classification.
    This seems a critical defect in terms of its security, so please consider to fix the situation.
    Thanks,

  11. I want to switch pages by swiping pdf or powerpoint on iPad even when in the middle of filling in annotations.

    Sometimes I want to see the other page of pdf when I am in the middle of filling in annotation. However, the current behavior of Box's annotation, you need to save the annotation to move to the other page of pdf or powerpoint.

  12. Display name is cut off when specifying a group or user in the user activity report

    The display name displayed in the suggestion when performing a search when specifying a group or user in the user activity report is cut off.
    Users and groups cannot be specified correctly, such as when similar names are set and they are distinguished by the end of the name.
    We want you to improve so that you can check all users and group names in the suggestion display when searching

    (In Japanese)
    ユーザーアクティビティレポートのグループやユーザーを指定するときに検索を行っても、
    サジェストに表示される表示名が見切れてしまう。
    類似した名前を設定し、名前の末尾で区別している場合など正しくユーザーやグループを指定する事ができない。
    検索時のサジェスト表示でユーザーやグループ名をすべて確認できるよう改善してほしい。

  13. "Automatically remove invited collaborators" - override/shorten

    I have enabled "Automatically remove invited collaborators" specifically for External Collaborators, under Enterprise settings > Content & Sharing.

    There are use cases (per folder) where the content owners/co-owners would like the ability to /override/ & shorten the expiration for an External Collaborator. This could be due to a contract or any other reason.

    The only method to do this now, is to delete the entire folder and all content.

    Example Use Case:

    Enterprise settings:
    - Content & Sharing > Invited collaborators expiration settings
    -- Automatically remove invited collaborators
    -- Remove after [ 90 ] days
    -- Apply these settings to…

  14. Ability to exclude certain email addresses from accessing public links.

    Some links are shared with individuals both in and out of the organization. When the individuals move on, they no longer need access to our folders. It would be great if we could exclude their email addresses from future access.

    Enable option with Shield Access Policy to break hard coded waterfall permissions (e.g. Editor --> View).

    E.g. everybody who is not the owner of the content previously was an Editor, but after I overlay a "View Only" Access Policy and Classification Label to the content, then everyone who is not the Owner of the content is View Only.

  16. I would like the ability to hide malicious content in BoxShield.

    If malicious content is uploaded to Box, we would like the ability to hide the content as well as suppress downloads.
    If possible, we would like the content to be hidden automatically.
    *For example, if infected with ransomware, we would like to hide the infected file and the file with the threatening message.

    This is because we want to take action on the administrator's side so as not to worry users.

  17. Better sorting by relevance with search terms

    When I search for an exact file name, to find all copies of that file within a folder structure, the "See All Results" page does not put all the "hits" of that exact file name at the top of the list. I have to scroll down through many other files with partial hits in the name to find all copies. Why would it not sort by exact file names first, then partial file name matches, then contents ... ?

  18. Lock executed agreement file after signing is completed

    After signing is completed users can upgrade the version of the signed file with a new file. Could we add a feature to lock the file version after all parties have signed/declines

  19. Copy or Duplicate existing groups

    Would appreciate the ability to create copies of existing Groups, mainly for its members - not so much the permissions given to that group.

    My use case: We've got an "ALL" group that has access to numerous folders. There is one user that does not want access to one of those folders. So I'd like to be able to copy the "ALL" group and remove that user, rather than re-create our "ALL" group which has a lot of members.

    There also is no good way to bulk add members to a group. Typing each person is cumbersome, it'd also be…
