  1. 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.

    Current naming for Shared Link option is not appropriated for Higher Education. There is People in your company option for Shared Link. Change Shared Link name from People in your company to People in your university or organization for Higher Education users.

  3. 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:

    1. a file-setting that always notifies me after a user unlocks a specific file or
    2. 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.

  4. Report on contents with tags

    Would like the ability to create reports for content with tags. To ensure that the tags are correctly assigned, the BOX administrator would want to check them regularly.

  5. A way to be able to select the rights of the developer console, which is similar to allow users to use Box Relay.

    A way to be able to select the rights of the developer console, which is similar to allow users to use Box Relay.
    This is a way to prevent users not to make sand boxes and API.

  6. 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.

  8. Support Emojis in file names

    Box currently does not support Emojis in filenames, which means it won't sync if I drag and drop a file from my desktop into Box Drive. It would be great if Box would support the same characters in file names as current OSes

  9. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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…

  13. Box Capture enhancements

    Videos recorded using Box Capture on iPad have been randomly saving with incorrect orientation for some time now. Videos will be recorded with iPad in landscape mode, but files will come out in portrait mode. I have had to manually reorient many many videos over the past few months.

    Clearing the local storage only works temporarily to fix the video rotation issue, and it eventually creeps back in. It is also odd to me that clearing the local video storage would have any effect on this. Is there some other data that is in the local storage that is gumming…

  14. Allow Enterprise Event API Endpoint to access 7yrs worth of data to match the activity reports provided by the web app

    Enterprise Events API endpoint only allows retrieval of events up to one year back. Activity reports in Box go back 7 yrs. Events contain a lot more useful data than activity reports so the request is to match the retention period between the two so the same amount of data can be collected via the API or web application.

  16. Short cut link for the file in Box Drive should be available

    Windows shortcut link for the file in Box Drive is broken if the BoxDrive cache is deleted. If the shortcut exists, the file in Box Drive should be opened as far as it exists.

  17. Download all versions of a single file at once

    If a file has multiple versions, it would be great to be able to download all these versions at once in a single Zip file.

    For exemple, if I have a Word file named "test.docx" with 247 versions of it, you would be able to download a single file named "test.zip" containing 247 Word files, named "test(1).docx", "test(2).docx", …, "test(247).docx".

  18. 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.

  20. Ability for Reply to Box Shared Link Emails to be sent directly to sender
