Box Passcode Screenshot Issue Resolution
On the Box Android App when you set a passcode it does not allow you to take a screenshot of any document. You have to go remove the passcode to take the screenshot and then go back and set it again.
This is beyond tedious and unnecessary and some other workaround to be able to do both has to be given. I want to have the ability to have security (passcode) and take screenshots.1 vote -
Message on page timing out / becoming inactive
After a certain period of time with no activity, the Box web tabs in the browser become inactive / time out (but not the overall Box session). So users try to upload content or complete other actions but are not successful and don't find the reason why.
It would be good to add a message in the tab when this happens prompting users to refresh the page in order to keep working on that tab.

preset email address in the sign-in dialog in Windows
When using Box Drive on Windows, i would like you to preset email address in the sign-in dialog.
The email address can be get from the domain user's mail attribute.This is mandatory in environments where SSO is enabled/required.
In the case of Box webapp, the IdP's authentication screen opens just by pressing the continue button once.However, in the case of Box Drive, you need to enter an email address to open the IdP screen.
Also, IdP may ask you to enter email address again.The sequence of entering this email address hinders the user experience.

New functions in Folder settings
-To add some new functions in the folder settings, so that collaborators will be deleted automatically when moving folders to another folder.
-To add some new functions to the folder settings so that users will be able to change roles like the Privacy settings. We want to control collaboration using roles on the the upper folders. However, in this case, folders which are not intended, can be created in subdivided folders. If any files were moved to subdivided folders accidentally, the file can be visible from users who are not intended to.1 vote -

Edge case failure! :
1) Upload testXMovie.mp4
2) Upload testYMovie.mp4
3) UPDATE testYMovie.mp4 by uploading testXMovie.mp4 againUpload fails without solution or description.
Better: "The file you are uploading TestXmovie.mp4 already exists in this folder. Would you like to replace both files with this one? (or cancel)"

Trial
You could not block the interface with your checklist. I can't use the interface because the checklist is in the way.
Make it dismissable. Maybe pop it up if you log in, but don't have it covering part of the interface and allow it to be dismissed.1 vote -
I would like to automatically set some options when creating a Box user. This is more about options in the Account settings.
We are currently provisioning automatically BOX users via our IDP and SAML assertion.When a user is added to an Active Directory group, his BOX account is automatically created.
I would like to automatically set some options when creating a BOX user. This is more about options in the Account settings. For example : country, number of lines displayed by page, default homepage…
Having particular attributes or API calls to manage these issues would fulfill the need.

Limit which applications can be used for non-trusted pc's
I'd like the ability to limit which applications can be used to open files for non-trusted pc's (and mac's). I'd like to limit non-domain pc's to open files using Office online applications, but not using Office clients installed on the PC directly. The goal is to remove the ability for non-domain pc's to continue editing files, but not have them stored locally in any way.

The pop up box when you first sign up is very obtrusive. There's no X to click to make the box disappear and it's not helpful.
Allow users to click on the basic steps box on the bottom left corner to disappear. It's obtrusive to have to walk through those steps to make it go away

Email notifications should include context
We want Box generated email notifications to include context re: the folder-level where the user was added.
For people like our boss who wants to know what is going on with a project without having to open a folder the information provided in the email notification will have to let him know what project (folder) it is associated with.

I'd like to be able to set the e-mail address for uploads to box folders
My team uses Box to allow students in our training courses to upload some of their code for review at a later time. One of the indispensable features has been the ability for these students to e-mail their code to Box, which alleviates many of the security concerns our clients have re: thumb drives, etc.
The one issue at this point is that when allowing e-mails to a Box folder, the e-mail address name is auto-genrated. I have no problem with this in theory, but in practice it results in typos, missed e-mails, and re-work.
I would love for either:

Drag-and-drop file uploads in any portion of white space in a given folder
Files that are dragged from computer to browser window are not successfully uploaded to Box Drive folders unless they are dragged atop already existing files. Would you be able to expand the drag-and-drop's "catch region" to include all of the Box Drive folders' white space in a browser window? Thank you!

Metrics for tracking most oft-accessed files on a Box Drive shared among a team, department, etc.
OneDrive's tallying of the number of times particular files are accessed and by whom helped direct organization efforts for cloud storage and understand staff behavior. The Box Drive does not have a similar quantitative feature, as far as I know. Possible to create such a feature, to track who, when, and how often particular files and folders are used by staff permitted access? Thank you!

Ability to see activities tied to pinpoints on the Geographic Activities page.
The admin console shows a worldwide map of activities, and lists number of activities by location. It would be very helpful to be able to get more information on the activity (file/user/etc.) as it will help ensure network is secure. (e.g.: should I be asking: "Is an employee on vacation in Kuala Lumpur, using a VPN, or is something else going on.)

Asign tasks in Office documents (Word, Powerpoint...)
I'm new to BOX (coming off business based on Google Platform) and have a few tips that would be awesome to have.
This is about collaborating better in teams and working on the document together.
Is there a chance to higlight a text in the Word/ Powerpoint - and asign that highlighted part to a team member? So on 1 slide I could potentially asign parts to different people to work on...
Thank you, Michael

Integrate with SEISMIC
If Seismic is the new go-to platform for documents, Box should be able to integrate with Seismic. Currently posting and editing and tagging are done redundantly in both places. Further, there are other issues with assets being modified, expired, file name changes, etc.

expired in value greater than 3600
I see the sample response for refresh token, it shows "expires_in": 3964,
Which I thought it would be 3600 as the max value.
Is it a mistake or it can be any value?1 vote -
