Ability to sync individual files,
The ability to sync an individual file would be very useful. I often just need a few files if i'm on a flight for example and don't need the whole folder. Copying into a new folder just to sync an individual file is not a great solution.

“Enable silent account configuration. For info, see Silently sign in users to the OneDrive sync client with their Windows credentials. If a device is not already joined to Azure AD, enabling this setting will join it.”

Request for Supporting HTML tags for File Request.
Currently, there is no way to add HTML tags(i.e line break) into the title and instructions for “Customer’s Option” in the File Request
due to the explicitly prevented for security concerns. Since we cannot use line break for instructions, it is hard to read if the customer enter long sentence for the instructions.9 votes -
Ability to set default permission on folder level
The customer would like to implement the feature “Default Collaborator Permissions” per folder.
We’re providing it only per tenant at the moment, so it affects to all folders/files in tenant if changed.
As a result, it probably not convenient such as the user changes collaborator permission from Viewer to Editor every time.
So, the customer wants an ability to set default permission per folder.9 votes -
Remove collaborators from certain sub folder
We need some enhancement on the removing collaborator for certain sub folder. For example I grant Amy to the parent folder which consists of sub folder A, B & C. However, I want Amy to only view sub folder A & C. Thus, I need to remove her name from sub folder B but BOX doesn't allow me to do so. My suggestion to at least add a function in order for the owner of the folder to remove collaborators for certain sub folder. Thank you.

Create a org wide "Trash" bin
Provide a Main Trash Area that allows you to see at an org level what was deleted and who delete it. Would want to be able to search the content and restore files/folders as needed. As it exists today you can only view a report showing the details or view each individual users trash items which does not provide an efficient way to monitor or restore data.

Disable Preview Thumbnail feature
It would be good to have a profile setting to disable the Preview Thumbnail feature for my account. The feature should also remember whether you toggle the feature off for a specific file, so you don't have to repeatedly toggle it every time you view the file.

Enable version history disabling at the folder level
Our business requires the ability to disable version history for some clients who require that no past versions of files exist. We need the ability to disable versioning for part of the business, while retaining it for other parts. We can't be alone in this...

Allow SVG logos in Enterprise Branding
Box uses an SVG to keep their logo crips on high DPI displays. I want to be able to upload an SVG in Enterprise Settings > Branding to get our logo crisp as well. PNG files aren't cutting it on high resolution displays on any basic Mac these days.

Option to prevent Drive from launching on startup by user
We are preparing to deploy Box Drive to our users using the Windows .msi. However we've found that after installation, the Box Drive window opens automatically for every user, every time they log into the computer. For users on a shared system who are not using Box, this means dismissing the window every login.
We'd like an option for Box Drive installation to not have the client launch automatically for all users. Or post-installation, allow the user to tell Box Drive not to open automatically for them. If the Box Drive client needs to run at login for every user,…9 votes -
Apply policies to duplicate files
Identify duplicate files in Box, and apply any policies in place onto all duplicates
9 votesWill need to understand the use case more (e.g., examples of duplicates to understand customer’s definition of a duplicate, how a duplicate can be created, etc.).

Tabbed mobile navigation
Currently, I cannot do meaningful work on the Box mobile app. It would be amazing if we could have tabs to enable the navigation within different folders/content at the same time. One tab could be a folder, another tab previewing a doc, another tab, editing a Box Note.

Ability to discern between your notes and notes shared with you on left menu.
This would make finding your own notes easier and also help you easily know if a note was created by you or someone else. This would be a variation of the different colors of Box folders.

Change the default security of a shared link, to "People in this file" or "People in this folder" rather than "Anyone with the link"
Change the default security of a shared link, to "People in this file" or "People in this folder" rather than "Anyone with the link" (which is the current default).
Whenever a shared link is created in box, the default access permission assigned to the new Shared Link, is "Anyone with the link" unless Account-level permissions are specifically changed by a knowledgeable user. This is not a secure choice at all. It's too easy to create a large number of Shared Links which, by default, are open to absolutely anyone in the entire world to whom the link gets forwarded to.…

Prevent moving sub-folders
Create a folder permission setting where collaborators can edit a file but not move the sub-folder where the file resides.
Another way of saying this:
Would like a folder setting which does not allow sub-folders to be moved but allows editing of files.9 votes -
Show icon in Drive for parent folders when sub-folders are marked for offline
Currently, users are easily able to manage the hard drive space being used by BOX by simply checking into their sync folder and deciding then what they may prioritize as necessary to sync or un-sync at a quick glance. Even in the instances where there are multiple folders and sub-folders included, it’s a clear representation of what’s being synced at the time.
These same users currently sync A LOT of files within a fairly deep folder structure, so not having an insight into which folders are taking up space only leaves a user to chicken peck around in the hopes…

Metadata Driven Retention Policy based on 1 attribute, not templates
requesting the ability to apply metadata driven retention policy based on 1 attribute, without having the need to create multiple templates just for 1 (or some) metadata retention policy.

Option to Restore an Item from Trash to a New Location (Other Than the Original Location)
Users cannot view/preview the contents in their trash before determining if they want it to be restored.
No clear way to recall exactly where each of the files were restored to (especially when you're dealing with dozen or more files)
9 votesWe don’t currently have this slotted in as an update to the Trash page given limited asks for it. If customer demand persists, we will re-evaluate, though this change also requires an API update since https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#restore-a-trashed-item only allows choosing of a new target parent folder in the case where the original parent has been deleted or user lost access.
