  1. Security Logs parameter for “changed collaboration invite link setting”

    The filter in the report “Disable collaboration invite links” signifies when the settings was disabled. That being said, seeing that the setting was changed from ‘enabled’ to ‘disabled’ in the report means that the setting WAS turned off so you couldn’t use invite links and was turned ON to allow the use of invite links.
    This is confusing and unnecessary, it would be better if the filter for the report was “changed collaboration invite link setting” or something instead.

  3. Request to improve the collaborator list on webapp

    [Issue]
    First, create folder A in the first directory and invite user “X” to that folder.
    Next, create a folder B in the first directory and invite the same user “X”.
    Then put folder B into folder A.

    ・Clicking on folder B will display two “X” accounts in the [Sharing] tab. If you click once on a web page other than folder B, the “X” display on the [Sharing] tab changes to only one.
    ・Right-click on folder B>[More Actions]>[Manage Collaborators] screen, two “X” accounts are displayed.

    Above behavior is not user friendly. We would like box to improve this.

  5. iOS Files app "waiting to upload" problem/getting stuck

    Awhile back I could not get the iOS Files to work with Box documents. They would get stuck in the "waiting to upload." While they were helpful, I spent several emails with Box assistants and we couldn't find a solution and gave up. It seems obvious, but I finally figured out what happened. The Microsoft Office applications in iOS require an Office 365 account to edit documents. My Office 365 is through my work, and I am in education, so of course we get a terrible email at first and immediately start using the email alias. When Office required the…

  6. Show same timestamp web vs. Box drive

    To migrate from file share to use box, we initially uploaded the content from our file server via FTP. We managed to se the original timestamp of last file modification. So we get shown this timestamp at client side using box drive. But the web app shows the timestamp of uploading the file. Please make it show the same timestamp as BOX drive!

  7. 0 Second .mov files do not preview

    If a .mov file is 0 seconds in length, it fails to preview on Box.com and mobile applications. iOS for new versions defaults pictures to this file format. Therefore, many pictures taken on newer iPhones do not preview in Box.

  8. Changing Name in Profile

    Right now, when I went to go change my name as it's shown in Box, I received an error message that said "Your name is invalid."

    Is there another prompt we can use to not allow users to change their name? How do users update so that their correct name is shown in their profile for their collaborators?

  9. Allow Box to be used while connected to Cisco AnyConnect Secure mobility client

    While connected to Cisco AnyConnect Secure mobility client you are unable to access the Box web app to download, view, or upload files. The hurdle of having to close any work you are doing which requires a VPN and then open box to download, view, or upload files meanwhile being unable to work on any VPN work items can slow down productivity.

  10. Muito lento para atualizar os arquivos.

    Muito lento, quando adiciono um arquivo demora dias para aparecer nos celulares. Sem contar que também esta demorando no retorno de arquivos procurados. Infelizmente isso atrapalha muito o aproveitamento do aplicativo, perde e muito para a concorrência.

  11. A User activity report on folders created only

    We are looking to generate a user activity report on folders created only. Currently, user activity has file management > uploaded as an option which will include files uploaded and folders created but we would just like folders created and not files uploaded.

  13. Partial file writing API

    I want the API feature that updates only a part of the file .

    Currently, I download entire file, and then write and upload it.
    It is inefficient when if only want a few changes.

  14. dropbox style commenting

    Dropbox allows you to highlight part of an image or even a time in a video and have a linked comment in the sidebar.

    Box is halfway there, but this Dropbox feature is amazing for collaborating on documents as you don't have to explain in detail what part of the image/file you discussing - just highlight and comment is linked.

  16. Copy files to Relevant Folders based on Tags or Automation Rules

    We would like to setup Automation rules for folders that would COPY and not MOVE new files to designated folders.

    To take the idea even further, if the COPY could be triggered by a TAG assignment, it would be even better, because some of the files in the affected folder should not be copied, while other should.

  17. Not able to access comments bar

    This is not an idea. It's a complaint.

    Recently, I'm often not able to show the comments bar on the right-hand side. For example, on page X, I'm able to see the comments bar, hide it if I want, and click on the little speech bubble to show it again. Meanwhile, on page Y, there is no speech bubble, so I cannot get the comments bar to appear. This happens sporadically and usually lasts for 30 or so minutes. After going back, refreshing the page to check multiple times, it's usually resolved itself in about 30 minutes. This is incredibly…

  18. Dicom

    Large folder has 2000 image files and 2 are corrupt. Currently the importer stalls and errors out due to the 2 corrupt files. Would it be possible to have a way to bypass this and tell the importer to go ahead and render the final study.boxdicom file WITHOUT all the files (2) being uploaded? A simply error catching sub that says – if you wait more than 30 seconds and you can’t get the last files, just go ahead and call the sub to build the final study.boxdicom file, and pop up a warning telling the user that – we…

  19. Filter folders that user can access by Access level in the Users & Groups tab

    Currently, all folders that a managed user may or may not have access to appear in the 'Edit User Access permissions' panel. There should be a filter for the Access level - so that eg. folders with Access level 'None' do not come up.

  20. Disable Box Notes for Individuals Outside the Organization

    It would be great if there were separate buttons to disable Box Notes either completely for everyone, or just for people outside of the organization. We use Box Notes internally for meeting planning, and we have this one client who uses it consistently to provide data, but we would really love it if she was prevented from doing so while those of us who work here could still use the feature for meeting prep.
