Viewing PPTX files via web browser
There is a pretty glaring glitch with the Web App when viewing PPTX files. It will repaginate the slides. Example, if your cover slide starts at 0, the Box Web App will repaginate the slides starting at 1, which can be confusing to people when trying to reference a specific slide. Once you download the file, then the pagination goes back to normal.
I'm hoping this gets fixed in an update.

Ability to Disable or Choose email Notification when Inviting Collaborators
We would like to have the option to email or not email a collaborator when sharing a content in Box. Example use case is when cleaning up Box permissions (group vs individual) and the Admin needs to do that seamlessly without bombarding he whole organization with Box invites to files/folders hey already have access to. Specially required for Internal collaborators.
Providing access permissions does not always require an invite given the way Box works, the internal user will simply see the content when they access their Box Drive or he portal.1 vote -
'Carrier Signal Flag'-like functionality on folder icons
When either a new file is uploaded or an existing file is edited in a folder, a small red flag pops up on the folder icon and stay up for a certain period of time to indicate the update.
It would save time and labour to routinely open the folder and sort files by 'Updated' timestamps in descending order every few hours to check for file updates which only happen once in a couple of days, for instance.1 vote -
Make the administrative contact modifiable.
The topmost administrative account is exposed in the account details for every user. Can you make this modifiable? We use separation of account privileges in our IT units, so each member has both a standard and a privileged account. Because my privileged account has those rights, it is listed in the contact information for our Box tenant. It sure would be nice to have it set to a monitored group email address...I'm not always in the office and an email could sit for quite a while if I'm on leave or ill.

Movement between Tenant
Currently when you make a movement between a Box tenant, based on Folder and File, the behaviour is different.
Folder: it will be an error
File: it will be moved without any messageI would like it to be error for Files movement and also copying too.

Invite all users who have sent an email to the email address associated with the folder
currently, Co-admins are manually inviting users to folders.
Inviting is generated for the number of projects, it takes man-hours each time, so we want to make it easy to invite.For example, we would like to have a mechanism that can invite all users who have sent an email to the email address associated with the folder.
[How to use]
Generate an email address associated with the folder
(It is assumed to be something like an email address for uploading emails)
Give this email address to the user we want to invite
Each user will send an email to this…1 vote -
Ability of business to enable/disable password protection of documents/folders function
The functionality allowing users to password protect documents and folders, should be manageable at the top level, as this function may cause problems with managing content if over used by users.
A simple enable/disable toggle for each group of users (Previewer, Editor etc) - so that users may/may not have the ability to password protect documents/folders depending on their permissions in particular locations
Admin Console - reporting locations and details of password protected documents and folders

Lifting or pulling up the limitation of 100
Currently, when the box admin wants to enable Box features like Sign, Canvas etc., to partical users and groups, the #s of users and groups are limited to 100.
Could you consider lifting or pulling up the limitation ?
I know that making groups is a solution when the box admin want to add more than 100 employees. It is bit taking time to makie groups, and want to make it more easier.
I would like to know why 100 is set as a limitation.1 vote -
I want to display 'File Description' in the filtering options on the file list.
I would like to display the 'Description' field configured through file requests in parallel with 'Size' or 'Last Modified' on the file list screen. Having to hover over the 'i' icon every time is inconvenient.
ファイルリクエストで設定した「説明」の項目を、ファイル一覧画面で「サイズ」や「更新日」と並列に表示させたいです。いちいち「i」のアイコンにマウスオーバーするのは面倒です。

Rename "Content Accessed" event and improve documentation
The "Content Accessed" event in the Admin Report is a bit confusing as documented and labeled today. We had an incident where a folder was available to staff inappropriately and used the Admin Report to investigate those who accessed it. It was reasonable for us to believe that users who had a "Content Accessed" event meant that they had accessed the content in some meaningful way. Instead, it simply means that they viewed the metadata of the file in some way in the portal. That's useful information, but the label should probably be clearer about that -- perhaps "Viewed Metadata"…

Update User Details Password Field
In the Admin Console, under User Details --> Password. " No password created" will show for every user if SSO is enabled for the enterprise. The logic should check the user setting instead of the enterprise setting, to reflect accounts that may not be a part of an organization's external directory.

Metadata Instance Update - Remove when no value should not fail
When Updating a metadata instance to remove a value from a specific instance, currently today the API fails if the field has no value.
I would like to propose that if the field had a value it is removed, and if it doesn't - then just ignore the operation. Similar to what add does if the field already has a value, it just silently replaces it.
As an option, in case others are relying on the failure, maybe add a new operation "forceRemove" so that if there is no value, the code will just ignore it and continue with the…

Applying Salesforce Data to a document (file) request that comes back as metadata on the document
It would be great if the Box Salesforce integration has a feature wherein it will allow metadata fields of Box files take on the data of fields from records (e.g. Account/Contact) in Salesforce. When the file is uploaded, it will have the associated metadata that relates back to the account.
Searching the community forums, I could not find any post related to this requirement (the only one that was similar was from 5 yrs back and has no responses .

Box Embed - prevent users from navigating outside the assigned folder
If a user is assigned to the following folders e.g. All Files > Cases > Case 1.
Currently, Box Embed Breadcrumbs allow users to navigate all the way up to the All Files.
We want the users to only be able to navigate only within Case 1 folder and not explore outside Case 1. This is useful to prevent users placing content outside Case 1 when embedded inside a case management application e.g. Appian, Salesforce, etc.
