  1. Need API to download files from Trashed folders

    As of now we can able to download files from Trash, but when we try to download files from the folder that is trashed by user under legalhold, we can't do it. This is a gap in edisocvery process. Can you please publish the API endpoint to download the files from trashed folders as well? We can't tamper the user data.

    Same kind of request available in these 2 places well.

  2. File Conflicts in Zip Download, provide our own file names to avoid conflicts

    File Conflicts in Zip Download, provide our own file names to avoid conflicts.

    For the Create Zip Download API call, there's an issue with files with name conflicts being renamed randomly. Instead, could we provide our own file name for the file name conflicts? https://developer.box.com/reference/post-zip-downloads/#request-example

    Example:

    Folder A / Tacos.jpg
    Folder B / Tacos.jpg

    Result (assuming we provide our own file names):

    1st filename = Folder A - Tacos.jpg
    2nd filename = Folder B - Tacos.jpg

  3. Ability to color code folders per agency within an Enterprise account while in the web portal view.

    To clarify/differentiate different agencies/companies under our main Enterprise, we would love to have the ability to apply color coding to folders in order to make it easier for those individuals who have access to multiple companies.

    Thank you!

  4. Creating a table of contents for files and folders for an end user

    For the end user to be able to create a table of contents report of a folder structure and share this report with others.

    BOX FOLDER NAME

    FIRST LEVEL FOLDER
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents

    FIRST LEVEL FOLDER
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents

    Anyone who has access to the folder should be able to view the folder report and potentially update the report.

  5. Box Embed Should Support Additional Query String Parameters to Show/Hide Content

    Box Embed currently uses query string parameters to show/hide certain content, for example "showParentPath" and "showItemFeedActions". For our use-case, we would benefit greatly from expanding the supported query string parameters to hide additional elements from the iframe. Examples include the ability to hide the filename with dropdown menu (including the All Files and Folders hyperlink), the "Download" and "Share" buttons, the arrows that let you navigate between recently viewed files, and the "X" button that allows you to close out of the currently viewed document and be returned to the "All Files and Folders" view.

    By supporting additional boolean query…

  6. Request to increase the maximum number of users to be enabled with [Enable for select users and groups] for [Mark for Offline] in Box Drive.

    I want to enable [Mark for Offline] for Box Drive and release it for some users. However, the number of users we want to register exceeds the upper limit of 100, so we would like to request to increase the upper limit of [Enable for select users and groups]. We believe this update would improve the useability and increase the efficiency among the users.

    (Japanese)
    Box Driveの [Mark for Offline]機能を有効にし、一部のユーザーに対して有効化したいが、上限値となる100名を超えて登録したいため、[一部のユーザーに対して有効化]選択時の上限値を増やして欲しい。
    利便性も向上し、業務効率化に繋がるため、実現に向けてぜひ対応してほしい。

  7. Box for iOS support for "Universal Control"

    Box for iOS doesn't support "Universal Control" in iOS 15 and Mac OS 12.x: this means that I can't drag my cursor from my Mac to my iPad Pro and use it to select and copy text from documents.

    Could you please update your app to support the latest OS features?

  8. Accessing external shared links via FTP agents.

    I request developer teams to look into the possibility of organising the access to external shareable links also via FTP clients. This would avoid the issue where a shareable link expires or gets blocked by the network setting of the external clients.

  9. Include .gslides in "Presentation" file type filter

    The file types that are under the "Presentation" filter are 'ppt', 'pptx', 'key', 'odp', 'otp', 'pot', 'fodp', 'keynote', and 'pez'.

    '.glides' should be included, as .'gdoc' is included in "Documents" and '.gsheet' is included in "Spreadsheets".

  10. Ability to search with symbols on Box Web and Box Drive

    We are aware that a single search for a symbol, including ".", cannot be used with Box's search function.
    Searching only for symbols will expand the search range and improve the convenience of file searches, so we would like to see this feature implemented.

    (Japanese)
    「.」含む記号の単一検索はBoxの検索機能で使用できないと貴社より確認出来てます。
    記号のみを検索することで検索範囲が広がりファイル検索の利便性が向上するため是非実現に向けて対応してほしい。

  11. "Last Modified By" criteria as an option within Folder and Files report

    Why isn't "Last Modified By" criteria an option within Folder and Files report? This information should automatically included. It doesn't make sense why we can't query this information.

  12. Gmail integration

    Hello,
    I am hoping that the Box interface with Gmail will be improved to the level that the interface is with Microsoft Outlook. Outlook can link to multiple files simultaneously, can link to folders, and leaves off with the last searched item. Working within Gmail has slowed down our process with Box significantly. So much so that I choose not to use the interface but grab the link directly from Box. Please advise when this can be updated/improved. Thanks!

  14. Ability to Edit folder contents but Folder cannot be deleted

    Hello,

    I am submitting a feature request for the ability to have Folder contents edited and changed (Add remove files), but users who have Editor permissions cannot delete the folder itself. We had an issue where a folder was deleted that has data sent to it via a Python script. The user meant to delete some contents from the folder, but accidentally deleted the folder itself. The folder name was "Doc Upload Test".

    I was able to get the folder restored through the Box Support team. If there was a feature for each folder where a checkbox was available that…

  16. Set personal defaults, like alpha by Name

    We need to be able to set personal defaults on our Box pages. For example, I want folders to come up in alpha order by name. Right now they seem to default to something else that seems random to me. It's very frustrating not having things in alpha order so that I can look them up easily. It makes no sense to have to take the extra step of setting the order to NAME every single time I go to a Box page.

  17. Outlook Integration - Box Embed Widget/ Folder Tree View

    It would be useful to offer users of Outlook a view into all of their Box files via a folder tree or embed widget. They could easily drag and drop emails or attachments into the relevant folders to be stored as well as viewing their content/ reading archived emails. Supporting our philosophy of integration and being able to surface content through popular applications. Requested by customer Eric Wright Group in EMEA.

  19. Have Box Sign Template setup to be signed in-person as a URL.

    I want to be able to create a template inserting the Box Sign fields into a Form. I can then save that Box Sign Template as a URL that can be completed in person and signed. Once signed the signed document is saved but the URL is not a blank form to be completed by the next person. Such as having a liability waiver or consent so that people can complete and sign them at the table on a tablet without me needing to set it up for each individual.

  20. Ability to access the file to be signed on BoxWeb regardless of the access right

    The file to be signed can be referred to by the link in the email regardless of the access right. You can also refer to the link for the email notification after signing.
    However, if you look at your history from the sign menu, you cannot see it without permission (the page you are looking for cannot be found.)
    Therefore, I want you to be able to use the same link as the email in the Box Sign menu.
    * Currently, you need to be invited to a file to move from the Box Sign history screen.

    署名するファイルはメールのリンクでアクセス権に関係なく参照できる。また、署名後のメール通知のリンクも参照できる。
    しかし、signメニューから自身の履歴をみると権限がないと見れない(お探しのページが見つかりません。となる)
    そのため、Box…
