Upload multiple files simultaneously in embed widget without creating zip
We have a media-recorder PC that records presentations. We need to be able to upload these to our Box folder from there, but since it is accessible to many persons, we cannot be logged in to our Box acct and email for long periods while the large files are uploading.
They are large files (500mb-1gb), and up to 45 of them, so zipping and unzipping would take a lot of time and PC power, plus we'd like to be able to share them as-is once they are uploaded, without having to download on a personal machine, unzip, then re-upload.

Allow Special characters to be searchable in content manager
The ability to search with the filename and extension within quotes, i.e. workshop.one
Right now, search separates the two and makes it difficult to locate the file, as it would be searching for "workshop one"

We don’t plan to currently support this, as most customers would find it problematic if a user could simply turn on the smallest possible security measures and thus receive a “valid” device.

This is not planned due to the relatively low adoption of Windows 10.

File Version Control
Control which versions of a file were sent to box.com instead of auto-saving to Box
1 voteThank you for this suggestion. The benefit of this feature is outweighed by the cost to other users. We’re happy to review additional use case data.

Create Persistent Access Tokens
We want to embed a folder into our sales portal. We want our users/partners to be able to search within the folder.
We don't want to manage a separate code repo just for generating a downscoped token. Would be great if Box could support downscoped permanent tokens to cover these use cases.
We cannot search with in a folder with an embed widget.

Make the digest header in the Commit Upload endpoint optional
Currently, Commit Upload endpoint requires passing a Digest header for the sha1 of the entire file.
Given that the integrity of each file part is already verified, consider making the Digest header in the Commit Upload endpoint optional

Allow Recents to be filtered via API
Currently Recents is implemented globally across all Box content the user has access to. Ideally, Recents could be filtered to some ancestor folder IDs (like Search is) to show Recent items only within a particular folder.
The use case is a custom application which is integrated with a company's primary Box instance. A custom app wanting to leverage the Recents feature does not have a way to get Recent items relevant to just the application content.

Setting which prevents users from being able to delete commenting
Business unit has a requirement to prevent users from deleting comments to comply with audit requirements.
We were suggested using user activity reports to see when people had deleted comments, reactively - but we do not want to build a process to generate a user activity report to reactively investigate a case.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! This is a narrow use case which does not have broad impact. We will review other use cases and continue to monitor demand.

We had a similar “Like” feature for files and it was confusing and not helpful for our users.
We would need to understand why a user would need this and how it would benefit the work they are trying to get done.
