Improve exported report by showing both moves into and moves out of the folder.
If you run a User Activity report for a single folder using the 'Moved' filter and click 'Run,' the in-browser run of the results will show moves both into and out of the folder you selected.
If you build a User Activity report with the same parameters and click 'Export,' the generated spreadsheet of results will only show moves into the folder.
The report would give more thorough information if the exported report showed both moves into and moves out of the folder.

Ability to sync specific folder manually on Marking for Offline only if needed.
Ability to sync specific folder manually for Marking for Offline only if needed.
And, Drive should be added new icons for this.
When PC comes online, if the latest version is available, something icons on folders indicates you can get a new update on the folder.
it would be very helpful to notice them need to update on the folder.
This feature would help to reduce network usage between PC and Box.3 votes -
We have 700+ users. There should be an easy way that an admin or co-admin can notify everyone.
Example: say we need to do some maintenance and would like to notify all of our users. Right now I was told the only way to do this is to email everyone or share a link with everyone. With over 700+ users that would be a LOT of emailing or sharing. Can you please create a way we can send out a notification to our whole enterprise?

Change login flow of desktop apps so it does not use default browsers
Box Notes also uses the same login flow as Box Drive - which uses the default browsers to login (IE for Windows, Safari for Mac).
We have Windows and our Idp cannot use IE for the login process. We would like to request support for using other browsers or a different login process that does not require IE.

Ability to export list of sub-folders when users select a parent folder.
Customer collaborate with external venders to share files and folders. In order to manage which folders and files received from external venders, the customer has to keep track records by using other system. Currently, users enter which date they received from which venders by manually. It is very helpful to export list of sub-folders in csv format to import this file to another system.

I want to divide the public folder setting of the shared folder
I want to open folders to an unspecified number of people in the company.
When I contacted the administrator, he said that he could not do it because there are only the following two setting values.
1."Anyone with the link", "Company users", "Invited users only"
2."Invited users only"Only the people in the company need to see it, so I would like to divide them into the following three settings.
1."Anyone with the link", "Company users", "Invited users only"
2."Company users", "Invited users only"
3."Invited users only"If you can divide it into three, you can get permission because you…

Box Shield inherit classification on move/copy, not only on upload
Box Shield needs to have the ability for files to inherit the classification of the containing folder during a move or copy. Currently, a file will only inherit the classification if it is uploaded to the folder with a certain classification. Example:
File A has a classification of "Confidential" and is moved/copied to a folder that has an "Internal" classification. File A will not automatically inherit the "Internal" permission, and it either needs to be manually changed to "Internal", or have the entire containing folder re-classified as "Internal" so that all containing files then inherit the "Internal" classification.
However, if…

Ability that restrict to create a file/folder on the root folder and move/copy to the root folder on Box Drive
.Ability that restrict to create a file/folder on the root folder and move/copy to the root folder on Box Drive if their enterprise set "Restrict content creation"
Currently, we can perform operation create/move/copy in the root folder on Box Drive even though our enterprise set "Restrict content creation".
Of course, the files/folders are marked as problem items, but if we move to the folder directly under the root folder, it looks like they have been moved to the folder, so logging off from Box Drive or replacing with new device due to hardware issue may lead to lose some contents.3 votes -

Select from favourites when copying or moving
I move and copy files to and from favourite folders a lot. Each time I do, I have to navigate through the hierarchy to find the right folder. It would be good if you could select from your favourites when moving or copying (as well as allowing full navigation). This would be especially useful to those of us who work on our own instance of Box, but also with collaborators.

Select folders from hard drive to sync with box
Rather than syncing to a separate Box folder on my desktop, I would an application that would make it able to flag folders and files that already exist on my hard drive. I would very much prefer to be able to open my Windows Explorer and right-click on a folder and make a selection that would automatically sync that folder from where it is in my hard drive to Box.

Select folders from hard drive to sync with box
It would be very convenient to have an application that would allow a person to go in from their Windows Explorer to flag folders that already exist on the hard drive that would be synced and updated on Box. I would strongly prefer this to having to sync things the other way around, as I consider my hard drive to be my "home base". For instance, I would like to just right-click on my work folder located on my hard drive, and then select an option that would flag it to be synced with my box account so that any…

Bulk invitation
We have multiple clients that we give access to several folders. I'd like to be able to send a single collaboration invitation, rather than inundating their mail with multiple invitations.

Ability to find a file or folder using just the ID.
Is Box working on an easier tool to lookup files and folders based off of ID?
I'd like to suggest a box tool where we can find the file and folder using just the ID. Having to run a 40+ min report on all of our files and folders anytime a user asks is very time consuming. I get 5+ requests a day.

Allow users to REPLY TO folder invitations
When I invite a user to a folder, they receive an email.
Today the email subject is:
My Name has invited you to work together in "Folder Name"
The From in the email is:
My email address on behalf of My name noreply@box.comIt would be extremely helpful for users to be able to reply directly to the invitation back to me. Instead, the users get an NDR.
We work with several other providers, and their notifications have the reply to: set as the user sending it.

Allow @ mentions in NetSuite Integration
The NetSuite integration does not currently allow for @ mentions to work in Box. It would be very helpful to allow NetSuite Box widget users to collaborate this way, instead of having to send an email, slack, etc. to the intended collaborator.
Note- I believe this is because of how NetSuite to Box handles provisioning; NetSuite only checks with Box for a user's permissions when the user is trying to access content. In this use case, the intended collaborator is not signed in at that point and @ mentions only are allowed when they are collaborated into the folder. Collaborating…
