1. Box Drive specification improvement request

   Box Drive is downloading a large amount of event streams, which can overwhelm company's network bandwidth. Due to the network bandwidth pressure, the business other than Box has been affected, so please take measures.
   Here are the details:

   Box Drive is likely retrieving folder and file events that the logged-in user has access to, but is aware that there may be a large number of event downloads in the following cases, for example:.
   ・A specific user performs bulk operations on a folder in which many users are collaborating. (All events are downloaded to Box Drives of all collaboration users)

   In addition, Box Drive receives information on all events that occurred during the stoppage at the next startup of Box Drive, so if you stop your PC at the end of work, all events that occurred during the stoppage will be downloaded when your PC starts up (Box Drive starts up) the next morning.
   Because the start time is almost the same for all users, the communication load increases rapidly at that time, causing problems. Due to the problem of this Box Drive, business other than Box has been affected, so please urgently improve it.

2. Sync alias/shortcut files on Box Drive

   Box Drive currently does not support syncing alias files (I think these are called shortcuts on Windows machine), which is a basic file organization tool. Alternatively, expose the favorites from the box web app on box drive. At present, it's impossible to organize a list of your truly active files while working solely within Box Drive. Seems like making these file types available for syncing would be a simple solution to implement.

5. Ability to Copy a Hub to a New Hub

   Copy a hub would be a super helpful feature because today if you want to hub - in any way - you have to rebuild the new hub from scratch each time.
   With a Copy Hub option when the copied hub is created, it would contain all the associated branding, structure, and content as the oroginal and the user would then be able to reuse that as necessary - change/add/remove - the new hub.

6. Box Hubs - Restrict external collaboration for tenant in admin console

   I understand that BoxHubs is planning to release a function to restrict external collaboration on a per-Hub basis, but I would like to have a function that can be configured in the Admin Console for tenant. Because setting for each hub would be very time-consuming and would result in setting omissions.

7. Please separate the colors of the icons displayed in folders and files.

   Due to the release of Box Shield's new classification indicators, the colors of the "lock icon" and "shared link icon" displayed on folders and files are all grayed out.
   In the past, the "lock icon" was red, and the "shared link icon" was blue, etc., making it easy for users to see and use.

   We believe this is a far cry from Box's goal of accessibility, which is "ease of use for all users."
   In order to provide an easy-to-use environment for all users, please restore the icon colors to the previous specifications or color code them.

   フォルダ・ファイルに表示されているアイコンの色を分けてください。

   Box Shieldの新しい分類インジケータがリリースされた事によって、フォルダとファイルに表示されていた"ロックアイコン"、"共有リンクアイコン"の色がすべてグレーに表示されています。
   過去には"ロックアイコン"は赤色、"共有リンクアイコン"は青色等に区別されていてユーザーが見やすく利用しやすいUIでした。

   これはBox社が目標としている"すべてのユーザーによる利用しやすさ"であるアクセシビリティからかけ離れていると考えます。
   すべてのユーザーに利用しやすい環境を提供する意味でもアイコンの色を以前の仕様に戻すか色分けしてください。

8. Allow Marking Folders as "Move Locked" To Prevent Users From Moving Certain Folders Regardless Of Permissions

   Our admins are constantly dealing with users who accidentally drag and drop folders into other folders. This can have a big impact across our org, especially when a high level folder that's shared across the company is moved. Here's a common use case:

   We have a top level Projects folder. That folder contains a subfolder for every organization we do business with. Those Organization folders then contain subfolders for individual projects. We'd like to be able to mark the Organization level folders as Move Locked so that our users don't accidentally move folders from one Organization into another. This happens constantly in Box Drive.

   The idea would be that an admin can mark a folder as Move Locked, and the folder would be identified with an icon letting users know that it's move locked. The only way to move it would be for an admin to unlock it first.

   Thank you for the suggestion. Box currently offers the ability to lock folders using the folder lock API - https://developer.box.com/reference/post-folder-locks/

   
   

   We do not have a feature on our roadmap to expose this functionality from Box Drive. We will place this in our backlog as we continue evaluating ideas to improve Box Drive.

   Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

   
   

9. Add separate "status" column to Box Drive application

   Box Drive has a known issue of overlay iconography sometimes not displaying after installed. This is affecting about 10% of our client installs and is an absolute headache and nightmare to resolve without registry updates.

   This is caused due to the Box Drive apps's reliance on the "Image­List_Set­Overlay­Image" function in Windows which has a hard limit of 15 values. Thus Box Drive's icons "compete" with other cloud providers' icons on priority and is totally unsustainable as you are at the mercy of how other cloud providers code their software to take precedence over others in this list (by playing the game of naming their registry key values to sort above others).

   As per this Microsoft article, this limitation is here to stay: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20190313-00/?p=101094

   A way to get around this is to simply use a separate "Status" column (as noted in the article above).

   This change will help to resolve this known issue for with Box Drive.

12. Image Shared Link Permissions should Match the Box Note's Shared Link Permission

    For example, when a Box Note's shared link is set to 'people with the link', all images in the Box Note should also automatically be updated to be 'people with the link' links.

    The current issue is that when I set a Box Note's link to 'people with the link' but my company's shared link default is 'people in your company', all the embedded images in the Box Note are still set to 'people in your company', meaning if a non-authenticated user accesses the 'people with the link' Box Note link, they'll see 'insufficient privileges' for all the images in the Note.

    Thank you for the feedback. We understand that the current permissions behavior for Box Notes images is not necessarily intuitive, and are actively looking into ways to improve that user experience. We don’t yet have a timeline for delivery, but will update here when its available.

13. Ability to post photos, videos, and hyperlinks in Box Hubs.

    While posting the photo and video files is nice, it would be faster to be able to easily look at photos without clicking into their previews. Also, hyperlinks and adding Box shortcut files are a must—we can't currently offer employees a list of helpful external resources in Hubs. (We could provide a PDF/Word doc with all the resource links, but, again, this requires extra steps for the end user.)

    on roadmap  ·  AdminAnonymous (Admin, Box) responded

    This idea is on our this year's roadmap

14. Box Sign Signature Log to contain the sender's time zone instead of UTC.

    I want the BoxSign signature log to be able to apply the tenant's set time zone.

    Currently, the signature log is written in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
    I would like to be able to set the tenant's time zone to make the log content explicit.
    If the UTC is left as it is, there is a high possibility that the approval time will be pointed out in internal audits due to the difference from the actual time, as it is different from the time that we use regularly.
    In addition, we are concerned that it will increase the man-hours of conversion and make it less efficient to manage.

    BoxSignの署名ログをテナントの設定タイムゾーンを適用できるようにして欲しい

    現在、署名ログが協定世界時(UTC)で表記されます。
    ログの内容を明示的にするためテナントの設定タイムゾーン適用が出来るようにして欲しいです。
    UTCのままの場合、常用している時刻と異なるため、承認時刻が実際の時刻との差異で社内監査の指摘事項となる可能性が高く、さらに管理を行ううえで変換の工数が増えて効率的でなくなることを懸念しています。

15. Set default file view and sort options by folder (and all sub folders for that folder)

    Ideally, let an owner or editor of a folder set the default view (list or grid) and sort order of the files.

    The system default appears to be by date the file was updated which is rarely (if ever) what our users want.

    Re: view options: For photos especially, the list view is rarely the preferred view.

    Additionally, with the grid view, allow the size of the image also be set as a default.

    This may not be an admin console enhancement. I think it needs to be a under More when you’re looking a a folder.

16. Option to request access to a folder

    Request: If an external or internal user is forwarded a Box folder invite and they are not a current collaborator, they should have a mechanism to request the access and such request should automatically go to folder Owner/Co-owner for approval or decline. This should be done in a way that does not display or communicate the folder owners name.

    Rationale: We have many external users that are part of large teams. Adding all (and maintaining) in the team is not feasible. These external users often forward the folder invites.
