  1. 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.

  2. 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:

  3. 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!

  4. 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!

  5. 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.)

  6. 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

  7. 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.

  8. 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?

  10. ability to add co-owner to an individual file

    It would be nice if users could also assign a co-owner to an individual FILE (that is, not a folder).

  11. Darker images

  12. Linked Files and Folders in Box Drive

    I'd like to be able to have a folder linked to other folders with the same file so the file can be updated from either location.

    For example, there are Client 1 and Client 2 folders each having the same Folder A within them. In Folder A would be File B and if you update File B by going through Client 1 folder, it would be updated the same as if you went through Client 2 folder.

  15. Add Metadata Support for Weblinks

    Since you currently can't add metadata to weblinks using the web interface, you have to use tags. This makes filtering systems more complex, since they're having to tie into two different APIs.

    It's even complicated further, since you can't actually read those tags via the API -- so you have to add tags to fields you can read, like the title field.

  18. Lock file upon approval task

    It is often desirable that the file is locked when an approval task is set to ensure that the approval is given on the exact version of a document as it was when the approval was triggered. It would be useful to have the option to lock a file until the approval task has been approved or declined.

  19. Allow choosing default Group permission setting for push groups

    Currently all Box groups pushed from Okta are by default visible to anyone within the Company. We are starting to make extensive use of Box Group pushed from Okta and need those groups to be visible to Admins only to avoid Groups being invited by users to potentially large number of folders.

  20. Selecting approvers and move destination folders of outcomes dynamically

    I got a request from my business partners that it might be very nice for them to be able to select approvers and move destination folders of each outcome dynamically.
    They feel inconvenience to create Relay flows as the sames number of external collaboration folders of every company.
