1. Box Notes Export or Download to Common Formats

   It would be great if Box Notes supported a simple way to Download/Export into non-Box format like plain text, html, markdown, rtf, or Word. I am hesitant to leverage Box Notes until this feature is present.

   To be able to upload different file types in Box Notes such as pdf, word, excel, etc. Currently we can only upload images.

   Today, you can easily add previews of your desired file types (pdf, word, video, etc) by using the Embed button in the tool bar, or by selecting “Include Preview” when pasting a shared link in the Box Note.

3. Insert a photo in Box Note within Box Mobile

   I would like to be able to (easily) insert a PHOTO into Box Notes from the MOBILE platform.
   I know we can do this in the browser (https://community.box.com/t5/Creating-and-Editing-Box-Notes/Inserting-Images-in-Box-Notes/ta-p/46192) but it is more likely that I would take a photo of an object and have a discussion with my team about it within Box. If I am exclusively using Box mobile while at remote sites, it keeps me from easaily communicating with the team real time if I can't uplaod photos. (We currently use texting to resolve this, but then the conversation is not recorded within the project)

   Hi there – please try our Full Width mode. You can enable it in the option menu in the upper left hand corner.

5. Support Markdown tags in Box Notes.

   We want to be able to use Markdown tags in Box Notes. On a side note, Preview for MD files currently does not support UTF-8. Supporting Markdown in Box Notes will help as a workaround.

   Markdown tags like bold, italic, headers, block quotes are supported

6. Tables - Allow Merging Cells in Box Note Tables

   A standard function when working with tables (in Excel and other tools) is a basic 'merge cells' feature that allows multiple cells (whether in a row or column) to be merged into one to function more as a grouping of multiple rows/columns. Box Notes don't currently support merging table cells.

   REQUEST: Support merging 2 or more cells in a row/column within a Box Note.

9. Add 'Insert from Box' Option to 'Embed' Box Files within Notes

   USER STORY: I have a file (a PowerPoint, for example) that I want to reference in a Box Note -- instead of just putting a link, I want to 'embed' the file so that it's displayed in a more visual manner.

   WORKAROUND: Right now, in order to do this I have to screenshot the one-slider, then drag that image into the Box Note, then manually put the shared link for the file below it.

   It'd also be nice to be able to (at a minimum) put a shared link for a file into the 'insert link to image' option that already exists in Box Notes -- then have the Note be smart enough to simply embed that file visually even though it's not an image.

10. Provide Workaround for 'New Note' Button when EID Has 'Restrict Content Creation' Enabled

    If an admin has the "Restrict content creation" setting turned on in Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Content & Sharing, the new note button will be grayed out. This is because new notes are created at the first-level (root folder) and this setting blocks that.

    We should provide a workaround - either still allowing the 'My Box Notes' folder to be auto-created or by replacing the 'New Note' button with additional functionality that allows the user to choose an existing location in which to create the new note.

    This issue has been addressed. Users should see a folder picker to choose a default Notes location when “Restrict content creation” is enabled for their enterprise.
