After opening a shared link in Web App, a user should be able to open the file directly in Box Drive.

This feature is not currently planned, but it is a second-priority item for our team. A related feature—the ability to open a file in Box Drive from the web app—is on our roadmap and will be an initial step toward supporting this request. We will keep you posted on updates; please continue upvoting this request, as it helps us prioritize improvements. Thanks for your collaboration.

Yes, now that I've switched to mostly using Box Drive, when I receive a shared Box link from a colleague, I'd like it to open in Box Drive, not in Box web portal. Thanks.

I feel this would help as with Box Drive being so spectacular it would give people more of a reason to use it since they would be going straight to their finder/windows explorer to find the files.
