  1. Shared Links (Public) improvements to flow for recipients

    Public Shared Links don't require the recipient to log in to be able to download items, but the flow always prompts a log in which confuses

  2. Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content

    Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.

  5. Controls for Admins to stop over sharing

    We have seen multiple scenarios where our teams are over sharing entire folder structures with external parties. It would be good as admins/co-admins to have a setting that allows us to disable external sharing.
    I was hoping this could have been done with policies, but since they are hierarchical it would stop the files and folders within the ones we want to lock from being shared!

  6. Issue with displaying list of invited collaborators

    Exposing the list of users collaborating on a folder to users from other companies could lead to a personal information leak. In the future, we would like to make the collaborator list invisible to users outside the company by default. We hope that this will be improved.

    in japanese
    フォルダにコラボレーションされたユーザー一覧が他社から見えてしまうと、個人情報漏えいに繋がります。
    将来的に、コラボレータ一の一覧が社外のユーザーからデフォルトで見えないようにしてほしいです。
    改善されることを期待しております。

  7. New Shared Link Setting for OTP to Specific Email Addresses

    Proposing a new Shared Link setting or type that allows users to send a shared link to a specific email address which requires a OTP password, similar to the authentication used when an individual is sent a Sign Request via Box Sign.

    This would allow for a simpler, more secure user experience when sharing one-off links than password-protecting a public link.

  8. Show on Desktop Contextual Menu Option

    A number of users have suggested a feature that they very much enjoyed and used with Dropbox that allowed them to seamlessly work between Desktop & Web.

    The feature is 'Open location on Desktop', this would allow the user to find something in the web interface that offer all of the filtering of the web app to locate content, but to be able to simply open the location on the desktop (either via explorer on a PC or Finder on the Mac)

  9. Support more than two most recent web browser versions

    I would like the Box to support web browsers of more than the latest two versions.
    Although I certainly do not want to use legacy versions of years ago, it would be realistic to say versions less than one months old for instance should be supported.
    Whilst a new version of Microsoft Edge is released every few days, the Box requirement of the latest two versions is a little too onerous.

  10. Name Issue

    It's way too hard to see the full names of my documents. I don't always care about upload date/size. Sometimes I just want to be able to expand the name section so that I can see the full name. Also, the 'upload date' and 'size' sections are WAY too big given how few characters are used to relay their data.

  12. Date and Time Designation for the "Auto Delete" Function/「自動削除」機能の日時指定について

    For operational purposes, I would like to make files available to external users for a limited time, and then end the release on a set date.
    However, if you use automatic file deletion'' or '' specify folder time,'' the deletion execution date may be delayed by several days from the specified date.
    Please delete files/folders on the specified date instead of deleting them sequentially after the specified date.
    If it is functionally difficult to delete on the day of the specified date, and the delay of several days cannot be corrected, then a warning message should be displayed when the…

  13. Lock files when editing them from a shared link that all users can edit.すべてのユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクからファイル編集を行う際にファイルをロックをする。

    When editing from a shared link that can be edited by a user who does not have editing or access permissions, the file is not locked when starting the edit.
    Therefore, when saving files on Box, duplicate files with the same name are created.
    To avoid this behavior, I would like to be able to lock files even if users do not have editing privileges.

    (日本語)
    編集権限およびアクセス権限を持たないユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクから編集する際に編集開始時にファイルにロックがかけられません。
    したがって、Box上にファイルを保存する際に重複して同一の名前のファイルが作成される動作となります。
    この動作を避けるため、編集権限を持たないユーザーでもファイルロックをかけられるようにして欲しいです。

  14. Viewer-Uploader Copy Experience

    As part of our workflows, we copy template forms into other folders. Our users are not all comfortable using keyboard shortcuts to copy the forms so everyone needs to be an editor in order to use the UI to copy and paste.

    We would like to see the UI for copy introduced for viewer-uploaders.

  16. Placement of "Delete Group"

    The placement of the "Delete group" button at the top right of the screen that appears when you click a group from the list of groups in the management console is too poor.

    During normal operation, what you see here are forward-looking functions such as "Save" and "Add."
    The more you get used to the operation, the more likely you are to press this button with force.

    管理コンソールのグループの一覧から、グループをクリックした際に表示される、画面右上のボタン「グループの削除」の配置が悪すぎる

    通常のオペレーション時、ここに表示されるのは、「保存」や「追加」といった前向きな機能群である
    操作が慣れてくるほど、このボタンを勢いで押してしまいそうになる

  17. importhtml & importxml to be supported on Google Sheets integration in Box

    Some formulae such as importhtml & importxml are not supported in Box Google Sheets integration.
    I strongly hope the functions on Google Sheets will be fully compatible with Box.

  18. Folder differentiation on Web App

    While Box does show a different folder if a folder is shared (blue with people silhouette) you are unable to tell which is shared BY you and which is shared TO you. I recommend changing the folder color to the default color, but adding the people silhouette when YOU share folders, then the blue one with the silhouette can be used for folders shared TO you.

  19. Provide a mechanism to indicate which BOX space you are in - potentially by account owner

    It has become clear that personnel often are invited to multiple Box spaces. This can cause confusion due to folder naming that doesn't indicate what Box account that folder is associated with.

    It would be beneficial if there was some method to indicate which Box account you are posting information in. This could be done with some type of context switching in the web app, or some listed account name with the folder.

    We have found that often times, some personnel with 'free' Box Lite accounts will post information in their 'free' account instead of dropping them in the Box…

  20. Customize shared link theme and logo

    As the File request link can be customized (text, colors, logo...), it would be great to customize a shared link too.
    We have many companies inside our enterprise, so each company would be able to set its logo for their shared links (and not the default one of the enterprise).
