  2. Ability to invite external deactivated users with steps to get their account reactivated

    Current method takes several steps.

    Our admin deals with several hundred vendors regularly; invites all to collaborate via active email list.

    Admin then has to send separate emails indicating that if they did not receive an invitation they need to contact 'Box' support to have their account reactivated and include the appropriate Box link.

  3. Make Box Lightning Component Pack for Community Cloud IDs field driven instead of static

    Rather than a static file / folder ID it would be great to be able to configure the component to allow dynamic IDs based off folders associated to new Salesforce records

  5. Account Creation Notification: When new users are added, email admins => unclear wording and missing feature

    When a new account is created, notifications should not go to all admins. Admin should have the choice to select who gets the notification (all Admins, main admin, co-admins, specific co-admin)

    Most large organizations have co-admins assigned to monitor created users, to support / track and managed account creation and tie it to SSO or internal helpdesk processes.

  12. Default new collaborators to Viewer (or any level) rather than Editor.

    If they want the Collaborator to be an Editor, the inviter needs to physically make that change from a dropdown when inviting.

  13. Convert Email Attachment to Box Link when forwarding email

    When a file (not in Box) is received by email, the user would like to forward it along as a Box link, rather than a file itself.

    It is cumbersome to download the attachment, then upload it to Box, generate a link, and forward the email with the newly generated link.

    Ideally, I would like a button in the email app (Outlook or Gmail) that allows me to forward email and convert attachment(s) to shared links.

    Thank you for the suggestion! We will monitor this request for additional demand. For now, it is not planned.

  14. 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.

  15. Ability to preview a locked file (locked by an outside program, i.e. Excel) in the iOS app

    Currently, opening a locked file in the webapp will give you the option to download, at which point Excel asks for a password.

    The iOS app does not show an error message that the file is locked by another program, and users cannot open or preview the file.

  17. Direct Integration with the Microsoft Project Desktop & Online Apps

    Users using these applications would like to leverage a native Box integration (similar to what already exists in Word/Excel/PowerPoint via Box for Office and the native Box for Office Online integrations).

  18. Allow folder permissions / account permissions to be copied to another user.

    We hired a new admin. As an executive, I want my admin to have access to all files I have in my Box account.

    Is there a way to copy his access to the new admin?

  19. Display folders owned by outbound collaborator when Admin instant login to managed user account

    When Administrator instant login to managed user's account, it is not possible to see the shared folder from outbound collaborator. It makes it difficult for Administrator to monitor activities on outbound collaborations.

    It is not required to allow Administrator seeing anything, but if they can at least see folder name and owner for outbound collaboration it could benefit Administrator
