Moving shared folders should be simple and not involve changing ownership
Many people in my organization share folders with me. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ends up in my top-level directory. But some should be in one folder and some in another. I should be able to move any shared folder, even ones I am not a collaborator on, to ANY place in my directory structure without changing the physical storage space and without worrying about ownership. Why should the sharer have a right to clutter up my top-level directory with so many folders? It's pages and pages of stuff on the web interface. Since the real data is physically stored…

automatically disable link expiry
I never want my shared links to expire. I wish there was a way for me to set a link expiry preference on my account since I have to follow this process for every boxnote.
- create a boxnote.
- navigate to the folder it is in.
- create shared link.
- go to link settings.
- disable link expiry.
I wish I could instead just create a box note, click share and be done with it knowing my link won't expire.

Box web UI does not clarify whether download capability is available for a shared folder
When logged into the web app on both Firefox and Safari for macOS, I see options to open a particular shared folder file (PDF format) by opening it in Adobe Acrobat.
However, I later receive the error message "There was a problem completing your request. Please try again".
I'd strongly suggest against such generic error messages. It is possible that the opening of the file in this way does not succeed due to folder permissions. Perhaps I am not granted access to this folder or file to do anything other than view the document inline. The thing is, I do…

Box Zendesk email links to ticket IDs redirect to generic page post authentication
Box Zendesk email links to ticket IDs redirect to generic page post authentication.
I receive an email from support at box ... (also referencing Zendesk in the email domain)
And within this email there is a link with label "this link".
Following the link in a session that begins free of any cookies and state (that is, a private browsing session), I am brought to a page to authenticate me - which is just fine.
However, post-authentication (or in the process), I'm brought to ageneric support page instead of the specific ticket ID. I'm brought to: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us
Also, on this…

Ability to turn off email notifications when a file is added to Box by email
We are wanting to use the feature of being able to upload a file to Box by sending an email to the folder email address, but do not want to have the auto email responder saying that "upload was successful". We are wanting to use this feature for our clients but do not want to generate questions when they get a email from Box

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.

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.

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

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

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?

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.1 vote -

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.
