  1. Folder Integration App can't use API to upload file to a folder if user has Uploader permission

    • I set the various Uploader permissions (Uploader, Viewer Uploader, Previewer Uploader) on a folder, but was not able to use our Folder Integration Quick Scan app to upload a scanned file to those folders.
    • I had to use Owner/Editor permissions to upload a scanned file through our application and the Box API.

    Why is Box not letting our application upload a file when the Uploader permission is set on a folder?

    Thanks.

  3. support more video formats : VOB, MTS

    Panasonic store videos in MTS format, it's popular
    Ripping a DVD outputs VOB, popular as well
    On the road video reviewing would be very useful as we can do that in Dropbox and get easily accustomed to such facility.

  4. BUG in the move operation: it takes 1000x longer on desktop than on website

    on any desktop moving a file is instant
    on an iphone moving a photo to an album is instant
    therefore we expect instant effect of moving operation
    in box that is not the case : move takes considerable time
    for example I tried to move 200GB on a box drive where all items were online only, first the window appeared trying to enumerate the files, which kept climbing, as if it was doing the move one file at a time
    then, as nothing was happening i stopped the operation
    to test if move was a copy+delete like on dropbox i…

  5. folder size

    Please show how many sub-folders (the number of folders) in main folder, currently it just shows how many files it contains, it would be really helpful and handy for users.

  6. Re-certify button to confirm someone still needs to be in the folder

    When access is about to expire they would like to review the access - could there be a "re-certify" button to confirm someone still needs to be in the folder

  7. Training - User Essentials Class 3.1

    Your self-paced 'User Essentials Class 3.1' does not set itself to 'Complete' when the class is finished. It never shows up as a completed class in one's transcript. At the end, there is a 'Next' button that, when clicked, does nothing. It does not advance anywhere, so the class never 'completes'. Please fix this.

  8. tracking file activity by user

    Is there a way to schedule the user activity report (so we didn't have to wait for it to run)? It took our IT team 30+ minutes to run this for a report from just two weeks.
    Alternatively, are you able to improve your Microsoft Flow connector, so that we could be notified in Microsoft Teams whenever a file is previewed or downloaded; right now the connector that Box wrote for Microsoft Flow only supports the following triggers:
    - When a file is created
    - When a file is modified

  9. Need Box for Android link on downloads page

    Please add a link to "Box Android" (https://lmu.app.box.com/services/box_for_android) to the Box downloads page (https://www.box.com/resources/downloads).

    That's a great resources page that I use to share all the main Box apps that my user community should be using, but it is missing a link to Box for Android.

    Thanks! :)

  10. Maximum access rights for external users

    We need the ability to restrict external users to a specific permission level or below. I’m proposing an enterprise setting like “Maximum access rights for external users.”

  11. where and how to mention the file download location in users hard disc? Please hardcode the user preferred location.

    while downloading a file . why cant you provide the full code. Incase of download, the code should be in such a way that after copy pasting your samples i should be able to see the file downloaded in the location i mentioned.

  12. Update folder metadata

    I am not able to get complete documentation on Updating folder metadata action for the Box API. Based on the examples I see online, there seems to be body parameter information missing from the box.dev site, and the documentation on the developer.box.com API Reference site is mostly blank.

  13. ITAR Support for Box Notes

    Currently, if we need to be ITAR compliant, we are unable to utilize Box Notes. I realize this would require a backend modification, but it would be great if we could utilize Box Notes and remain ITAR/EAR Compliant.

  15. Total space used and total space allocated at enterprise level through API

    Whenever we want to get total space used and total space allocated at enterprise level through api, we have to iterate through every user. Even then total space allocated at enterprise level would not be 100% accurate. If you guys can expose any api where we would get those information accurately.

  16. Provide Tutorials on Login Page

    It would be nice to provide links to tutorials or resources on the login page for non-managed users. The biggest hurdle to using Box with non-managed users is their frustration with login process and getting a hang of the product. Having easy access to basic tutorials would be beneficial to non-managed users and those attempting to help the non-managed users.

  18. Improve instructions for selecting nonadjacent items in file list

    Improve the keyboard shortcut instructions for selecting nonadjacent items in the file list [e.g., under https://app.box.com/folder/]. From these instructions: https://community.box.com/t5/Migrating-and-Previewing-Content/Using-Keyboard-Shortcuts-for-Box/ta-p/25945
    it is not clear and nonobvious that one has to navigate with the up and down arrows to land on the next file that you want to select, then you can press shift-x (which is a command that I've NEVER seen in a user interface).
    Please improve your keyboard shortcuts article to be more explicit.

  19. Music Playlists (Audio, MP3)

    I'd like to see the ability to create multiple named playlists for the Box iOS mobile app. Currently I can only favorite songs which places them into one large playlist. I'd like to be able to create multiple playlists for different genres of music or for the activity I'm engaged in.

  20. Allow login from email addresses associated with partnered org to be authenticated by box, rather than exclusively by org

    Email address I wanted to use for Box login led me to default authentication screen for partnered organization. And yet I could not log in to Box through my authenticated credentials to that org because I wasn't a current member of that institution but a retired one (I do have a valid authenticated login with that organization, as well as valid email address that survived my service at the org, but since I am retired I am not granted organization-sponsored Box access).

    And yet I had a need to be a collaborator on box with a current member of that…
