  1. Enable download of watermarked file via public shared link.

    We want to be able to distribute watermarked files via public shared link. It's confusing for end users, as well, since the Shared Link settings for allow download is not grayed out when the file is "watermarked".

    We will review this request once we see additional use cases and customer demand.

  2. Add a safe guard/warning for items deleted in local Box Sync folder noting they will also be removed from the Web App

    Currently dragging items out or deleting them from the Box Sync folder removes them in the cloud. To my knowledge, there is a warning window when deleting collaborated content, but none for personal content. Please add this.

  3. The ability to schedule when Sync updates files/folders

    Our user would like to be able to sync content only when they need to, to reduce their memory usage throughout the day when they are working.

  4. Shared Link Stats after link disabled

    Stats for the shared link persist after the link is removed. It would be valuable to know who has access that link even after you remove it from the file. Use case would be for audit purposes.

  5. Keep PDF searchable, bar downloading

    The ability to share a file or folder with an external party, and let it be searchable (ctrl-f), but not able to be copied or downloadable. Watermarking would solve for the copying, but the ability to ctrl-f and download appear to be inextricably linked.

  6. Better way to manage and view collaborators added to a single file

    There is no good way to manage people who have access to a single file through SFC (the ability to invite a collaborator to a single file). Users need to click to ...> share > manage collab to see who has access.

    It would be helpful to have a "sharing" tab along with details on a file level, since the release of SFC. There's also no way to run reports on which files have external collaborators through SFC.

    Interesting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

  7. If a user invites a collaborator, that they receive an error message if that email does not exist.

    Right now, if a user invites someone using an email that does not exist, it just remains in pending.

  8. Schedule files to automatically transfer from one box folder to another at a designated time

    We would like to have the ability to have our Box files automatically transfer from one Box folder to another at a designated time. This is a critical business need for our internal marketing and tech teams.

    Additionally, this is relevant to our consultant data that is proofed, authorized and then moved over to the folder that is synced with the proprietary business app searchable by the consultants.

  9. Ability to retroactively change expiration date on externally collab'd shared links and collaborators

    In summary, the limitation appears with both External Shared Links and External Collaboration outside the organization.

    Setting an expiration is helpful going forward, but still leaves us in a difficult situation on how to handle folders using this functionalities currently.

  10. Add option to delete an email address in the autocomplete dropdown when inviting collaborators

    If an email ever accepted a collaboration invitation, this email will appear in the auto-complete dropdown even if the email no longer exist, is not a current collaborator, or invited by accident

  11. Ability to auto-delete content when a shared link expires

    We would like the ability for content to auto-delete upon a specified expiry of a shared link.

    Specifically, we feel this would give us better control over removing not only the sharing but the content itself and automate some processes we have.

  13. Remove all collaborations on folders you own and co-own

    Currently the Collaborations menu allows you to remove all collaborators on content you own. Some enterprises make one account the owner of all content, but would still like their users to be able to manage users.

    We do not plan on adding additional permission levels at this time. We will reconsider this request if anything changes.

  19. Account Creation Notification: When new users are added, email admins => unclear wording and missing feature

    When a new account is created, notifications should not go to all admins. Admin should have the choice to select who gets the notification (all Admins, main admin, co-admins, specific co-admin)

    Most large organizations have co-admins assigned to monitor created users, to support / track and managed account creation and tie it to SSO or internal helpdesk processes.

  20. User Activity report: Add number of folders user has been invited into and number of folders user has invited others into".

    This requires a lot of Excel merging today and not easy to get to this information.
