If you have dozens or hundreds of folders in your "Favorites" and they are not sorted alphabetically, then it is nearly impossible to find your subject folder. Just make Favorites and Collections default sort alphabetically or give us the choice to set the default. Other people may want the last visited folder to be at the top, but still others may want to see it alphabetically. Please give us the option to do so as a default treatment.

Please support the interface extension of third party file formats to the following three features.

• Previewing of files (*1)


• Viewing the icons of files in list view


• Viewing thumbnails of files in grid view


• Full text search in files

*1) Previewing features

======================================================

Currently there is not way to search for a folder name offline. All you can search for is a file name. This can be problematic if you have multiple files with the same name, but just in different locations. Suggest being able to search for file name and then open file.

In the old UI, you can sort by name or updated ascend/descend and the preference retains as you traverse the folders. In the new UI, the default is sort by updated and reverts after you change the sort order and traverse the folders.

Add the function to set the expiry date for the file request link.

Please allow Editors to send File Requests. Currently, only Owners and Co-Owners can send file requests. It would be extremely helpful if Editors could as well. In our organization, we have many with editor rights that could take advantage of this feature and would gain great efficiency . Making these users a Co-Owner will not work with our current permissions segregation.

Today, Box is integrated with Microsoft Teams ONLY for team's channels. Please integrate it for direct messages and group chat too !

Thank you

I have users on my team still using ShareFile to specifically "request files" from external people because the process is simpler. Three key suggestions for the Box "File request" feature:
1) Can you streamline the pop-up window to focus on the "link" versus the embed widget link. 2) Expose the option/checkbox of the requestor to receive an email when the content is uploaded.
3) Allow the requestor to adjust the expiration date. Default would be tied to the admin link share policies

Thanks!

We would like for the File Request Widget to have a progress bar for uploads, so users can see if their upload made it to Box or if it failed.

If you open “…” > File Request in the folder, you will see the “File Request” function.

There are 4 items in “Customize options” of file request.
There is a checkbox for each.

If you close the screen with this checkbox selected, the next time you open it, it is unchecked.

Can there be a save button so that we are not mistaken that we selected settings for the link? Or can the settings remain checked so that when we re-open the option, we can see that we did select settings for the link?

Request for add the function to control File Request permission control.

Currently Relay does not support "either/or" approvers.

We have use cases where we have multiple approvers in a process but only need a certain amount of approvers to continue the workflow. i.e. There are 3 approvers in a process but we only need 2 out of the 3 to approve.

When I logged into Box this morning, I saw the following note in the lower right-hand corner of my home screen.

Your Box account has been growing!
A growing number of users at your company have signed up for Box accounts – exceeding the number seats included in your plan by {{MLDATAOVERAGE_SEATS}}. To adjust this license overage, add seats to your plan using the link below.

1. We do have seats available


2. I am not an admin so this shouldn't be a notification I should receive.

32gb upload available (upon request) for all enterprise accounts.

Documents in BOX are not searchable based on Metadata when uploaded using BOX API

Document uploaded into BOX via EPHESOFT using BOX API and 3 metadata elements are attached to the document. We can see the document in the BOX and the metadata elements are present in the Custom Metadata section in the BOX.

We have a few users complaining the list view is limited.
Why is this constrained to only 11 collaborators per page? The paginated UX is cumbersome

Currently if a group admin is individually invited to a folder as a viewer, the group admin can add the folder to a group as editors.
