We would like to be able to edit inserted preview shared link materials with Office Online within a Box Note.
Recently, a function to embed a preview of a shared link in Box Note has been released, this feature makes it easier to use files for meetings. On the other hand, we would like to be able to edit everything within the Box Note to complete our processes without having to open another program.

Identify files that fail to sync using Box Sync
In my experience - Box Sync on Windows 10 - I often run into messages "N files could not be synced" - usually because a Mac user saved a file with a name Windows can't handle. If it's only one file, it tells me the name, but if it's more than one, it only shows the number. I would go into Box to rename the files - however, I cannot find any way to identify the offending one. Would love an option on Box Sync that showed the set of files that are throwing sync errors.

Notify me when a file is unlocked by another collaborator
When a file is locked for editing by another user, on a case-by-case basis, I would like to be notified via email when that file is unlocked.
Either:
- a file-setting that always notifies me after a user unlocks a specific file or
- a one-off subscription to a file when it is locked that I can set that notifies me via email when that file is unlocked. After this one-off notice occurs, the subscription would be deleted.

Ability to disable the feature to send shared link by email.
When the customer send email to external user, it is necessary to put superiors in CC according to their company rules.
This feature does not match the company rules because it can not put anyone in CC, so they want to disable it to prevent users send email without approve.10 votes -

Lock file upon approval task
It is often desirable that the file is locked when an approval task is set to ensure that the approval is given on the exact version of a document as it was when the approval was triggered. It would be useful to have the option to lock a file until the approval task has been approved or declined.

Add permissions to a folder without emailing everyone
I'd like to be able to edit permissions directly in a folder without sending and receiving a ton of emails. I have not found a way to do this - even silent mode on the admin account does not allow for this. I think the notifications within Box are sufficient to let people know their folder permissions have changed and if I want to send an email it is easier if I just send a single email outside of Box to all affected.

Removed Collaborator Report That Show Affected Folder Path, Folder Owner, & Link To Affected Folder
Recently, my company ran into an integration bug between Okta and Box, which result in a mass deprovisioning of users account. We were able to reprovision user account fairly quick but there as a mass folder permission lost.
If the user permission was granted via a group, all permission was successfully restored. However, if the permission was granted individually, that permission was lost. Ticket was open with Box support to request for assistance with folder permission restore but they could not help.
So the next best thing was try to run "User Activity" report on "Removed Collaborator" on the service…

Add an admin console control to be able to turn on or off auto-accepting collaboration invitations
Currently the ability to turn on or off Auto-Accepting Collaboration Invitations is only available from the user's settings (User Settings > Account Settings > Sharing). This would enable organizations to turn off auto-accept invitations on an instance-wide level.

Add preferences dialog to Box Drive on Mac (e.g., hide menu icon, change shortcut key)
Most Mac apps provide a preference dialog for key settings. For Box Drive on Mac, I would expect pressing ⌘, when Box Drive's search is active to open preferences, where I could optionally hide Box Drive's menu bar icon (the icon inside Finder's sidebar is all I need to see) or change the shortcut key for searching (in case ⌃⌥⌘Space conflicted with another app) or adjust the maximum disk space used by Box Drive.

When using the Box's Email Shared Link, there is no bounce back email or there is no way to track or reply to the email (the address has the name of the sender with a Box no reply email address).
Request: Have email of the sender instead of the no reply box email address

Identify "retention policy" as the deleter of content
When an item is deleted by a retention policy, it just reads that "someone" deleted the item.
We would like the ability for the deleter to be named as something more explanatory like "retention policy" so it is more easily identifiable during an audit.
