Ask users to enter their email address before viewing a file
Is there is a feature that requests/restricts a person who receives a file link to submit their email address in order to view the file. Sort of a Docsend killer.

Improve the use of Variable Strings in the JAVA SDK
For customers who are leveraging an API gateway using Java SDK version 3.2.1 some URL prefix text strings are not dynamically adjusted.
For example, when customers are downloading the file representation in it tries to call directly the box API URL like the following URL:
https://api.box.com/2.0/internal_files/123/versions/345/representations/
Some customers may be leveraging a customer specific gateway, so they need to be able to dynamically change the URL where https://api.box.com/ is replaced with the gateway prefix like all the other calls:
{{CUSTOMERGATEWAY}} /internalfiles/123/versions/345/representations/jpgthumb32x32
There are a number of places where the prefix was not dynamic.

When creating a Box sign template, I want to specify the signed file and sign log in any location to create a template
In the current Box sign template, it is necessary to specify the save destination folder for the document at any time.
As a security management, I want to be able to manage signed files and sign logs in one folder.(In Japanese)

Update the layout of My Collection
Under My Collections, please change the layout of the toggle button that pops open Collections folders so that it's not the exact same size/shape/location/color as the "X" boxes on individual favorites. More than once, when a page loads slowly, I've gone to expand a Collection and accidentally hit an "X" and wiped out an important favorite from my sidebar!

Finding Priority Documents within a Folder that may have a hundred documents
It would help to be able to mark certain documents with a red checkmark as a Priority or Important document and be able to see only those documents that are Priority or Important or whatever you want to name it. Some of our Folders contain a hundred documents or more and it would be great to just see only the documents that have been marked as Priority if that is what the attorneys choose to see rather than the hundred documents.

Add a "request to share with me" button to Box folders
Lets say that a folder has Mary as the owner and Bob as the co-owner permissions wise. I would like a button that any other Box user can click on (for example a 'request permission' button) which when clicked, Mary and Bob will receive an email informing them that a user has requested viewer/editor rights for the folder (the user can select what permissions they are asking for). Mary or Bob can easily click an approve or a decline button from the email to grant or deny the access.

Move the "Upload, Folder, Word Document, Excel File" option in a folder
Any time I open a folder, my subfolders / files populate below, but after .5-1 second, four of the most annoying boxes in the world pop up above that list called "Upload, Folder, Word Document, and Excel File." This causes all of the subfolders / files to be shifted down so that even when I try to quickly click on one, it will go to the wrong folder because everything has just shifted down. While I often use these options, trying to get from folder to folder is made so much slower and it's insanely aggravating to have to wait…

Automatic Image folder in chronological order
As an administrator would be great to have all image files collected automatically in a single location where it would be shared easily with the team regardless of where the individual filed it. Need a global visual in chronological order.
Include select items or all feature.

Ability to add a group of users to feed
We cannot add a group of users to the list of authorized users for Feed.
We would like to add this Feed feature to a group of users to test it before enabling it for all users.1 vote -

Exception to password expiration rule
There is a need to allow for specific user accounts to have a longer password expiration policy applied to them. However, Box's policy is EID-wide, which means that there has to be workarounds to deal with specific use-cases in which the user accounts require longer password expiration.
It would be great if there could be an exception added to the user account like what Box does with device pinning. This would be an easy solution to the problem, the admin could go into the users' settings, provide their password expiration time frame as the exception.

Enable auto complete for internal users when collaborating
When going to share a file or folder with an internal user, unless you have collaborated in the past, auto complete does not come up. In fact when you put in the internal email address, it shows a globe as if the user is external. A way to use a directory sync would be helpful, but since not all users have Box in our domain, showing just those with accounts suffices and would actually be the most helpful.

UI improvements - Download Button
received multiple feedback from users, where their client missing out the button on how to download, ended up they trying to sign up, which not ideal in term of fast pace workflow
should be making the Download button bigger and colored, so more stands out,
currently the button a bit hard to notice, but instead the Log In and Sign up superseded the overall view1 vote -
Allow "plain text" toggle on preview pane for all small files
Right now, the preview pane on the site will refuse to display plain text files unless the file extension is one of a short list of types. However, there's no good reason why this files can't be displayed. There's no need to try to syntax-highlight the files, just display the contents.
Since the site won't necessarily know if a file with an obscure extension is a plain text file or not, all files below a certain reasonable length in bytes should have a toggle checkbox in the preview pane ("Display raw contents" or something) that would force the file to…

When an email address is marked as undeliverable, show that status in the console
When your system marks an email address as undeliverable, there's currently no way to see that in the admin console. The Resend Invite button is available but the invite will never be sent because you're suppressing the address.
In an ideal world, we'd be able to see that and toggle the status, but even if we could just see the status it would save time.

Export all data belonging to a Custodian on Legal Hold
There is currently no way through Box to export all of a user's data for offline preservation and legal review. This workflow is necessary for the EDRM model, as the files may still be altered while under Legal Hold.

Search for Users Currently on Legal Hold
Currently we are dealing with a matter that has spiraled into a huge undertaking because of the way Legal Holds are implemented. Our client has enabled over 25 Legal Hold policies, each one has an average of 50 users. We have a list of over 20 custodians that we need to know which Legal Hold they are currently on, if any.
There are two ways to implement this:
1 - Allow Admins to see whether the custodian (or any of their data) is currently on a Legal Hold policy, which Legal Hold Policy it is currently on, and why it…1 vote -
Box Sign - Expand the number of recipients from 35
Is there a known way to send a document through Box that needs 70+ unique signatures in the same location (basically everyone needs to receive their own separate file.)?

Box for Outlook (app) - Insert link at character
The Box for Outlook app (deployed through Microsoft 365 admin centre - not as part of Box for Office), inserts links as an image and file name at the bottom of the email that is being created.
This is an awful user experience for recipients. It would be better to insert links in the same way as the Box for Office Outlook add-in works. This allows putting a link at the character point.

Enable ability to edit Google Docs, Sheets, Slides via Box integration without requiring login aka anonymously
Enable ability to edit Google Docs, Sheets, Slides via Box integration without requiring login aka anonymously.
Even when the link is configured to "people with the link can edit," external collaborators are still required to log into both Box and Google Workspace in order to edit Google Sheets, Docs, and Slides via the Box integration, which is way too much friction and strongly discourages use.
I strongly recommend that we offer optionality. While highly security conscious departments (e.g. IT, InfoSec, HR, legal, finance) might require an audit history with details about who edited content, which requires people to login; conversely,…
