Error message shown for failed uploads could be more descriptive or specific.
"There was a problem downloading the items. Please try again" is the provided error message for a downloading error.

Prevent End Users from Updating Email Aliases in Account Settings
Current: Users are able to add any email addresses as aliases to their accounts
Request: Create a setting in the Admin Console that can be enabled to prevent end users from modifying their aliases if it is being managed by Admins via API/SAML. Alternatively, enable a setting that limits users to only be able to add email aliases that match registered domains for the EID.

Ability to disable "user added another user to your folder as a collaborator" email notifications.
We've built an app that centers around adding users to folders owned by a service account. We had over 150k notifications in a single day, accounting for 80% of their email traffic to a single inbox for a brief period. We've have added a rule to block these incoming emails, but we are not satisfied with this solution and urgently request the ability to turn these off.

Notes Desktop App - Add App to Mac & Windows App Stores
We push users toward downloading software from the Mac and Windows App Stores, especially the Mac App Store as that is Apple's officially 'approved' method for downloading software to a computer.
3 votesThanks for the feedback! App store versions of our desktop app are not currently planned on our roadmap. We’ll continue to monitor and may revisit in a future planning cycle based on customer feedback.

Expose the functionality for auto-deleting folders and files on a specific date via the API.
Currently, the web app has a file/folder setting in which a folder or file can be deleted on a specific date. We don't expose this service via the API.
We work with documents in packages (folders) and so when the documents expire and are deleted, we would also like the containing folder to be deleted as well. All of these packages are customer applications and so if not cleaned up then they will accumulate over time.
Right now, retention deals with files only, leaving behind the folders. The auto-delete on the folder is perfect for this purpose except that it…

Make it easier for Viewer-Uploader role to copy files

We do not plan to make custom terms of service more granular at this time, as the admin / user complexity of configuring and maintaining n number of ToS policies would be very high.

Allow for in-line document edits for Approve/Reject step
We want the ability to actually edit the document (not just provide comments in preview pane) as part of an Approve/Reject step. Rather than having an edit step followed by Approve/Reject we would like to accomplish with one task - the key is they'd like to be able to provide edits inline and reject it back to a certain step in the workflow. On some occasions they would also make edits and approve
3 votesWe are not planning to have tasks exist in the in-line editing of content.

Template Version History
We would like to have a history of changes made to templates so if they modify one they can revert back if needed or have a record of who changed what/when - one use case is for compliance templates they need insight in to who created/when but also iterations of the template
