Input file/folder ID instead of folder name in Files and Folders report
Quite often folders with same name appear when the folder name is entered for filtering the folder to create the report, resulting in the report being incorrect although after long time waiting for the report to be ready.
By allowing to filter by file/folder ID instead of folder name, such mistake can be avoided and the the filtering can be made more accurate.10 votesGreat news!
We've rolled this out in a recent release. Thank you for helping make Box better!

Forward-Looking Legal Hold / Indefinite Date Range Until Lifted / Optional End Date for Holds
User Story: I want to put a custodian on Legal Hold retroactively (which is already possible in Legal Holds) AND for all activity (content, etc.) going forward (aka that they continue to add in a forward-looking manner) until the hold is lifted.
TL;DR - Make the 'End Date' field Optional (just like the Start Date is already).

Send notification after approved/rejected status change
To improve the real-time collaboration (Task activity) within each team and the team members. Automated notifications sent out to team members indicating the APPROVED/REJECTED status would help). Presently the Team leader and members use the COMMENT feature to keep the team informed. I want more automated notifications as changes occur.

Hidden Metadata Templates/Attributes still need to be modifiable and searchable via API
Managed users should not be able to edit metadata that is used by applications. But they still need metadata on those files.
9 votesHidden metadata templates and attributes are modifiable via API. Hidden metadata attributes are searchable via API — hidden metadata templates are not currently. This is on our longer-term roadmap to fix since this is a bug.

Supporting MAM Policies via InTune
With Intune MAM-WE turned on and enabled, Box is treated as a personal location thus content opened from Box > Word can then be saved to other personal accounts on the device. Under that scenario a save-as operation from Word to say a personal Box account creates an exfiltration path that may not logged from our side other than the initial interaction.
9 votesWe currently support Intune MAM policies in Box for EMM. Box for EMM requires an MDM to deploy it. For this reason, I’ll say we already support Intune MAM policies.

Seamless login for Box Drive in non-persistent VDI environments
Users have to log in to the Box apps (Box Drive, Box Notes, etc.) each time, as the user profile info is blown away from the non-persistent VDU environment after logoff. This results in a very poor user experience. They'd like to leverage embedded windows authentication if possible but are open to other ideas.
9 votesThis capability to persist credentials across non-persistent VDI sessions was released in v2.8 of Box Drive

Dynamic installation of Box Drive
I was tasked with making the Box Drive installer available for deployment via the Jamf Casper Suite on macOS. Software deployment policies from Casper run as the Unix root user - not the logged in human user - so any user folder modifications during the package install will be made to the root user's home folder. On macOS, the root home folder is located outside of /Users, hidden away at /private/var/root. However, after the Casper deployment policy runs, a new root folder is found in the Users folder where it doesn't belong. That root folder doesn't belong there and could…

Send notifications to multiple emails
We have a separate instance for managed external users. Because they have to create a dummy email for these externals, the email is not one that is able to receive notifications. They would like the ability to tack on working emails (without the unique email constraint) so that these users can still receive email notifications.
9 votesThis feature, called the Alternate Notification Email, was delivered as an opt-in experience in the Admin Console on Sept 25, 2019. We also support developer APIs for admins who need to configure emails programatically.

Disable 'Upload via Email' Admin Setting Globally
Currently, the 'Upload via Email' setting (that's shown on the Folder Settings page) is always enabled, and admins have no way of disabling this setting globally in their instance.
REQUEST: Add a new option to Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Security -> Uploads that gives Admins the ability to disable this setting/option globally.

External Collaborator Reporting
Have the ability to export the list of external collaborators with the items they are collaborating on (which the external users tab already shows).
9 votesThis information already exists in the Collaboration report. This report lists collaborations (managed and external users) on folders owned by that enterprise. Collaboration type is also called out so you can tell if the user is managed, external or if they have access via a group.
