1. Antidote made compatible with Box Notes

   Hi !

   As an active writer and participant for an association, it would be great if Box Notes could be made compatible with the app Antidote, which would allow users to proofread their texts on box directly without having to copy-paste their work on Word first. It would be a huge time saver, especially for those working on shared projects.

   Good day

2. Correct the wording of 'Prior Versions'

   Your Website states that:
   The maximum number of prior file versions you can access corresponds to your Box account type:

   Personal Free - 1 Version

   This simply isn't true, and I have argued this in a ticket and with a live agent, but the statement implies you can access a prior version of your file.

   Definition of Prior is "earlier in time or order" so this makes your statement false as you cannot access anything but the CURRENT version in the Free version.

   I would suggest the wording:
   The maximum number of file versions you can access corresponds to your Box account type:

   Personal Free - current version only

   Furthermore, make the web access more clear about this, as when you look at a file it says there are 2 versions with their dates, but in a Free account, when you try to retrieve the older file you get the error
   "Server error
   File versions could not be retrieved.
   No prior versions are available for this file"
   Which leads you (like I did) to raise a ticket to find out why!

   Even better, allow Free account to have access to one prior version, like some of your rivals!

4. Infinite redirects in SSO-enabled mode when a user's password expires

   In SSO enabled mode, you can sign in with a password. When a user's password expires, they are forced to change their password. If you try to sign in with SSO in this situation, you will be redirected indefinitely and you will not be able to sign in.

   In this case, Box should redirect to the password change page after accepting the authentication.

9. Help

   Hi. It would be great to have photo or video links for the help/how to sections. Some of the wording (at least as a Mac user)doesn't match up with how I normally navigate Mac. Would help avoid having to contact help chat. Thanks!

10. Where'd the rollover filenames on web go?

    Am I crazy or did I used to be able to see the full file name when I rolled over and held the cursor over a file link? I no longer see tool tips of the whole filename.

    Long filenames get truncated visually unless your web browser is wide enough to show them. The only way to see the full filename now is to click the rename pencil and view it there.

    This is really inconvenient. Can we have our tooltip filenames back, please???

11. Retain modified_by field on GET calls on content for deleted users

    Right now, when using the API to make GET calls on content, the 'modifiedby' field will be NULL if the user that made the modification is deleted. For reporting purposes, it would be ideal if this information is retained. The 'createdby' field is retained, so it seems strange that modified_by results in a NULL result

12. version tracking between multiple files

    It often happens that multiple files relate to the same product and therefore need to have the same version tracking. In this case if a version is created by mistake (the version number is incremented on a file) this can offset the version tracking between all the files related to the same product. Some solutions include:

    1 - Give more flexibility around version numbering (be able to do a hard reset of the version number - i.e. reset version number from number 30 to number 25 and delete all versions in-between)
    2 - Allow version tracking between multiple files - i.e. have a single version numbering system for multiple files and the version number is only incremented if all the files have been modified.

15. Better workflows for organizing content

    A colleague of mine works in an a department we'll call "DepartmentX" in a larger organization. Within other departments in the org they create a "DepartmentX" folder and share that to my colleage's box account.

    My colleague now has several "DepartmentX" folders and cannot at a glance see where they are from.

    In the initial view in Box and even on BoxDrive the "root" is polluted with other people's stuff and it is not possible to organize that into sub folders that are meaningful.

    If a user tries to drag a shared-folder into a folder they created Box attempts to copy the folder with a warning about changing permissions. What was expected to happen is that rather than appearing at the top level of the account (all files) that user-organize folders would appear and the shared folder would be in a sub-folder and continue to be a reference to wherever it is actually hosted.

    You might need to create the notion of a sharedAt folder as part of the shared-folder's data structure that says not only that it is shared to user X but that it is shared in a folder/collection within that user's box.

    The model right now is to treat the initial view like the Operating system desktop and making everything created or that other people create appear in the same space and with the possibility of having the same name.

    Whether a sharedAt solution is the right approach there needs to be a way of viewing what a user has access to that has some degree of organization, where shared content may be organized by who shared it to the user:

    MyBox
    MyContent
    User/OrganizationX
    DepartmentX (shared folder)
    Shared file.docx
    SomeFile.txt
    UserY
    DepartmentX (shared folder)
    README.txt
    UserZ
    DepartmentX (shared folder)
    Stuff.zip

    The above structure is meant to show that if organized by who shared the data multiple folders with the same name are no longer an issue. This is especially important in an enterprise scenario.

    You can do the single catch all folder if you provide for different views and who shared what is but one.

    Since you already support tags, you could have a view that shows content grouped into tag-folders.

    So the two views identified here are:
    Sharing View
    select all files owned by user as MyFiles union select all files shared to user group by owner

    Tagged Content View
    with tags as (select disticnt tags from files where owner is user or file file is shared to owner x) Select all files where tag in tags group by tag

    I know it won't be that trivial database wise, but conceptually the point of tags is for being able to find content and a sharing view.

    You could also do more of Apple's notion of "Smart Folders" where the folder is a "view" in the database sense that it is named search criteria that can be treated like a read-only folder. I think this is in part what others are calling collections, but if the search tech were expanded to allow results to be grouped into folders (at least in the display) by some property like owner or tag, then having the ability to name the search and save that as a view-folder would mean users could create criteri- based collections and have more meaningful ways to explore their content. BoxDrive could list the views much like FileExplorer has a "QuickAccess" section

    A colleague of mine works in an a department we'll call "DepartmentX" in a larger organization. Within other departments in the org they create a "DepartmentX" folder and share that to my colleage's box account.

    My colleague now has several "DepartmentX" folders and cannot at a glance see where they are from.

16. Customize group admin access, Just to handle folder addition

    Currently, Group admins have more privileges over on box groups, In our environment, we have 0 group admins for all the groups we manage.

    Trying to see if we can have more customization on the roles been defined for a group admin.

    A role where they can just manage content access will really help us bring down admin control on group access.

17. Awful UI problem when adding collaborators

    Please fix this awful UI problem: I tried to invite collaborators to a folder, and send a message. I hoped to include my contact info so it would show up in the email. Apparently any sort of URL is not supported in this message box. Ok, fine. But instead of giving me an error message and allowing me to save the last 15 minutes I spent compiling the list of collaborators and writing the message, the box disappeared and AFTERWARDS I got a red message box stating that URLs are not supported in this message box. I lost a lot of time when on deadline. Please fix it.

18. enterprise - auto add invited collaborators, need that turned off

    as an admin of our Enterprise Box account I would like the ability to turn off the function that automatically adds an invited collaborator who has the same domain. We are part of the state where our domain is the same throughout the state but our Enterprise is only for a small agency. If our members invite another state agency employee to collaborate the system automatically adds them to our Enterprise. Surely there is a way to turn off that function, allow it to be a yes/no toggle even.
