  2. Allow to keep original file name

    When a new version of a file is added, the name of the new file replaces the previous file name. We are doing a great effort to apply a naming convention to the department's folder and is a new Document Owner updates a version of a document, the convention is lost, or needs to be redone.

  3. Not a fan of the new main screen

    Hi - not a fan of the large blue column at the left - it now blocks when I try to do a print screen of files - I could open up a file and print screen the list within that file - now it blocks a good portion of the left side - so I can't see/print screen in formation.

  4. No permite validar la cuenta con foldersync en android

    Me solicita un código, lo obtengo y pido validarlo y me reponde "hubo un error intentalo mas tarde". Lo intenté varias veces con el mismo resultado.

  5. open a file in a defined app in a folder

    i store files in a folder that are simple text files that can be viewed by any text editor. your preview option will not allow me to view them online simply because the extension is not txt.

    sometimes its ".dat" or something else, but its still plain text. I should be able to select the viewer in the preview option and not have to download a text file to view it. your ms office word viewer would even allow me to see it.

    thanks

  6. Bug in Box plug-in for Outlook

    There is a bug in the Box plug-in for Outlook - whenever you add a file using the Box plug-in, it removes all the formatting/numbering from the rest of the email. This is quite annoying! Can this be fixed please?

    Thanks

  7. convert

    Is there a way to convert the documents to pdf files in Box instead of downloading them and convert them manually to PDF file? If no, can you consider adding it to a setting where this option is available?

  8. Uploading contract documents to our consultants and want them to View & Print. They can print only if I upload as Viewer & Download.

    Uploading contract documents to our consultants and want them to View & Print. They can print only if I upload as Viewer & Download.. We don't want to upload as Viewer & Download. We don't want the consultant to download our document. ONLY VIEW & PRINT. Current this option is not there and if possible update the platform to View & print option.

  9. box drive

    Preemptively cache your folder directories.
    Some departments have a large volume of folders and files. During first time of loading a folder, the contents appear blank and after 5 seconds content shows up. Sometimes a person needs to go manually refresh the folder list to see the contents. This gives the first impression that Box Drive is slow. Is there a way to preemptively cache the folder directories? We do not mark any contents available offline and would like to keep it that way. Once the folder is listed the first time, all future browsing of the folder is fast.

  10. "Public" shared link permission to be greyed out on some folder

    User wants the "Public" shared link permission to be greyed out on some folder.
    To prevent information leakage, I want to set "Public" only for a specific folder and gray out it so that it can not be selected in other folders.

  12. When sharing a link can the link have the path name in it?

    It would be great for shared links if the path was in the link to ensure the correct link is being shared without having to double check it and so the receiving party knows exactly what the link contains.

  13. Visually check the copied or moved items

    Currently, there is no way to distinguish between "copied or moved items" and "newly created items" other than in reports.

    For items that have been copied or moved, it would be useful to have the option to see the history of those copies or moves in the browser.

    <コピーや移動されたアイテムをブラウザ上で目視で確認する機能>

    現状では、レポート以外では「コピー・移動されたアイテム」と「新規作成したアイテム」を区別する方法はありません。

    コピーや移動したアイテムについては、それらのコピーや移動の履歴をブラウザで見ることができるオプションがあると便利だと思います。

  14. Hi, are you interested in knowing about spelling/grammar/usage errors in Box online training, not incl British vs American English?

    Grammar and spelling police here. Just wondering if you'd like errors pointed out so you can correct them. Allowing grammar and spelling errors in training materials, especially those offered online, makes Box seem unprofessional and shady -- like a phishing email or letter from an online lottery telling me I've won money. I've found five errors on just the first page of the Get the apps you need lesson, and they're not British v. American English differences.
    Happy to send screenshots.

  15. File Request User Configuration - error messaging

    When configuring File Request for "enable for select users", users remain in the list even if they have been deleted from Box. If you try to add a new user to the list, you will receive an error message. The reason for the error is because a deleted user is still in the list, however the error is a standard message and does not explicitly say this. So customers do not know why they are getting an error. There should be clearer messaging in the error so customers know what they need to do.

  16. open location

    When I copy or move an item, usually I just want to go to the location where the file has now been copied or moved to. Currently, the only option is to show file or close. If I show file, I have to wait for it to load before I can click the cross and then be in the location I want to be in. If the file is large, sometimes I have to wait for ages.

    I envisage something in Box like when you right click something on your desktop and it says "Open file location"

  18. Preview Fortran file extensions such as .f

    Would like to preview Fortran file extensions such as .f even if they were simply treated in the same manner as a .txt extension.

  19. Relay Workflow to follow messages/ notifications to activities

    It would be super helpful if you could use Box Relay to let a notification follow an activity. I know that you can generate tasks, but in that case I just want to let a certain group of users know that there is new content in a folder. A notification would be the best way to do this.

    Thank you for your feedback. Allowing more than one collection expanded in the left sidebar might result in negative performance impact, so we have decided to limit it to one collection at a time. As we continue to make improvements to our systems, we will keep this request in mind.
