  2. Allow file locking when MS Office Coauthoring is enabled.

    Prior to MS Office Coauthoring, I could lock a file in Box, with would allow me to edit it normally, but it would be read only for anyone else.

    Since coauthoring, I can not open and edit files that I have locked. Support has let me know that this is just a limitation of coauthoring.

    The workaround is to move the file to a folder where only I have editing access, but that would require moving the file around to different locations.

    Would love the ability to temporarily lock files again. And if this isn't going to be (or can't…

  4. Set Custom Time for File Request or Shared Link expiration

    Have the ability to set an expiration time in the Web App on the Box File Request. The use case is a submission use case where the need is to have uploads shut off at 3pm vs the default of 11:59pm. The ability to set a different time can only be done at the API/CLI level for the Shared Link only and not the File Request. In addition, you can not set a time within the WebApp for either. This functionality could be extended to other use cases with collaborator access shut off at a specific time of day.

  5. Hide unknown/system access record from Contents Insight activity

    To avoid end user confusion, we’d like to request that the activity on content insight only focuses on identified user-related action to the end user. The current activity includes some system related and/or unknown access (not box users), however, this may cause user confusion. Preferably, we’d like to show those systems related and/or unknown access to admin/co-admin only on the Admin console.

  6. Restore the zoom feature in grid view

    Please restore the zoom feature in grid view. This feature is extremely useful in photo shoots where thousands of photos need to be seen quickly.

  9. File size upload limit - Option to choose any file size from 1MB - 150GB

    I am suggesting a file size upload limitation setting to be lower than the existing 2GB.

    The reason why is because some companies who are hyper sensitive to malware and virus issues want the ability to deep scan EVERY file uploaded into Box. Currently, deep scan is only able to scan files that are less than 200MB in size. This is a gap that can be solved by reducing the maximum file upload size into Box to 200MB.

    While this greatly restricts the size of files being uploaded into Box, it gives the customer an option to choose one over…

  10. Grid View search results are now severely limited

    I have discovered that while searching in Grid View, the page will only load a certain number of results, and after that it will not load anything else. It will only load more results when switching back into List View.

    This issue seems to have just started after a new update as I have spent the last 4 years with no problems searching in Grid View. I'm hoping this can be fixed very soon because I used to brag about the great searchability of Box folders, and this is now seriously damaging my efficiency in searching.

    Please remove auto-lock of Google Workspace file after real-time co-authoring.

    I have to unlock it in order to delete it… not intuitive and a poor end user experience that confuses a lot of our customers.

  17. Make anonymous editing from "Someone" easier to investigate through the native Box interface, rather than requiring Event Log API or Reports

    Make anonymous editing from "Someone" easier to investigate through the native Box interface, rather than requiring Event Log or User Activity Report (e.g. did this come from Shared Link with "People with Link" permission, a File Request, email upload, etc.)

    E.g. "Folder Details" --> "Modified" section says "Modified by xxxxx through Microsoft Office Online integration" or "Downloaded by Someone/Anonymous through Shared Link" or "Uploaded by Someone/Anonymous through File Request"

  20. Content Cloud Plugin for Box for free

    Dear Box team, I am trying to install the Content Cloud Plugin for Adobe Creative Cloud.
    We can install: Content Cloud Plugin Content Cloud Plugin | https://exchange.adobe.com/apps/cc/108224/content-cloud-plugin - this one is free but doesn’t have the Box integration
    What we need is this: Content Cloud Plugin for Box Content Cloud Plugin for Box | https://exchange.adobe.com/apps/cc/108110/content-cloud-plugin-for-box - which we can't install because I apparently have to pay for it.
    As the integration is offered in the Box App center, would it be possible to get the Content Cloud Plugin for Box for free?

    Also, we are in general interested in more…
