Support streaming uploads or appendable upload sessions (unknown final size)
I have a use case where data is generated continuously (sensor readings). I want to build a file in Box by streaming bytes over time and then finalizing the file when the session ends.
Currently, Box’s chunked upload API requires specifying a file_size up front and mandates a fixed total in each Content-Range header. This prevents uploading content when the final size is not known at the start of the session.
Request:
Add support for a streaming or appendable upload workflow, where:- A client can create an upload session without knowing the final file size
- Chunks can be uploaded incrementally…

Couldn't see full group name
When collaborating, if the group name is long,
the part that doesn't fit in the UI gets truncated.
Is it possible to improve the UI so that the entire group name is displayed?
This happens both when collaborating and when viewing the collaboration list.ーーーーーーーーーーー

Display by name, Alphabetical as a Default. Necessary for our business!
It is 100% Necessary for our file Storage and Sharing needs for files to show up alphabetically BY DEFAULT. We just transferred over from Dropbox, and this is really annoying and a waste of time to have to set viewing each time we log in, and when we share files to have to explain to customers how to set their display. Display by name alphabetical should not only be an option, but a Default. Please make this available immediately. Our business model and client sharing workflow success depends on this. Thank you for implementing right away

Collaborator Permission Levels: Editable, No Downloadable
From a security standpoint, I would like the ability to edit in the desktop app but not download.
Now, if you can edit it, you can also download it.
セキュリティの観点から、 「デスクトップアプリでの編集は可能だが、ファイルのダウンロードは不可」という権限の提供をご検討いただきたく。
現状、 編集が可能な場合は ダウンロードが可能な権限のみとなる認識です。ご検討いただけますと幸いです。

Changing default columns view in File Explorer with Box Drive - Move or hide sync status
The recent 2.48.250 release has forced a new Sync column in File Explorer. This new column is fixed in position and can't be hidden. I, for one, don't care to have this column take us space in the Explorer as I have a smaller laptop screen.
When you select the column and hide in Explorer, it shows up at the next refresh back in the same position.
The integration with File Explorer should follow Windows 11 preferences and be adjustable just as OneDrive is.

Forced termination of suspicious outbound collaboration
We request implementation of a method for administrators to forcibly cancel invitations received by users under their management.
While outbound collaboration in Box is free and convenient, it is also highly dangerous.
It can be exploited by attackers seeking to misplace files or spread malicious files by sending invitations, or by employees planning to leave who receive invitations from their personal accounts to extract information.While inbound collaboration allows logging, outbound collaboration does not even permit this, leaving administrators virtually powerless.
Currently, administrators can only take the following two actions against these highly dangerous behaviors:
① Control “future” outbound collaboration…1 vote -
Easily check past annotations in Box Notes
Box Notes is extremely easy to use for team brainstorming and reviews, and it has become an essential tool for our day‑to‑day collaboration.
Currently, when we add a comment using the annotation feature in Box Notes, the comment disappears in the next version if the referenced text is deleted. While it is possible to revert the Note to the version in which the annotation was made via the version history, this is not very intuitive.
We would like comments (annotations) to remain viewable as a history, even after the referenced text has been deleted, similar to how comments work in…

Bulk Metadata View for File Request Files
We’re using a File Request form with a metadata template that collects applicant and writer info. That metadata is used for renaming applications and triggering other Relay steps.
What’s missing is a way to see all that metadata at once. Something like a folder-level view or export that shows a list of the metadata values ie(ApplicantName, ApplicantEmail, WriterName, WriterEmail). Right now the only option is opening the metadata tab on each file one by one, which doesn’t scale when there are a lot of submissions.
A simple list or export of all metadata in a folder would make managing these…

assign folder
Where folder contents need to be updated from time-to-time, have ability to assign various people as assigned "Folder Manager” who are responsible for managing the contents for accuracy. Shoudl be viewable in the folders view (ability to set a new column). 1) Tags could work; 2) It seems column headers can not be changed; 3) metadata doesn't seem to work (especially for non-tech savvy people.

Make the popup box on desktop go away
I would love if there was a way to remove or click on this dialog box to make it go away. It is constantly in the way of work. I know box want me to "resolve" the issue but if they'd like me to do that they should provide more information on what exactly is the problem because when I try and fix it, it never works.

I want to be able to select an area of the file (like comment or annotate) when I assign a task.
When I assign a task, it's not always clear what part of the file I am referring it. I would like to be able to (optionally) select a portion of the file and then assign a task to it.

Number of files in folder not correctly shown
All the folders in the Box I'm using show "Size" as "0 Files", when in fact each folder contains several files. It would have been useful for this feature to work correctly. Instead, I'm manually opening each folder to check their contents. In the alternative, an option to click an arrow to go to the contents of the next folder in the file list would be helpful to save a click navigating back to the main page.
