  1. Ability to see additional info from a shared link (file/folder owner, parent folder/location, etc.)

    Oftentimes, users get access to a link that is shared with them via email, chat, etc.

    If the owner or the file is deleted, moved, or transferred, there isn't an easy way to identify where the file lives and who owns it either from an end user or admin perspective.

    Currently, we have to reach out to Box Support to look up the file ID or shared link to get this information.

    This is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized. We will reconsider with additional feedback.

  2. Automatic warning when generating "people with link" shared link

    Generating a shared link with "people with link" settings is very easy for end users, to the point where they might not realize the degree to which they open that content up to hard-to-mitigate, external distribution. An automatic warning, when an end user selects" people with link," is required per company security policy.

    We understand the concern and believe the proper way to implement this is to either allow the admins to default shared links to “people in my company” and/or when a user selects “people with link” and admin can select a setting to pop up a warning message. We wouldn’t want to implement this by default to all customers since this is adding friction to sharing which will have a negative effect on that action.

    This is not planned for our near or long term roadmap. We will reconsider with added use cases and/or customer demand.

  4. Ability to save/copy to my local box when a public link is shared with me

    When someone shares a public link to me via Box, I am unable to add/copy the file to my local Box. I have to download from the web then reupload to Box.com. Even though I am signed into Box.com I am unable to save/copy locally to my file structure. (conversely, if someone shares with my box email directly I then see it in my Recents, but this is not always the case)

  5. Show the number of bytes in the "size" column along with the number of files

    The web app currently has "Name", "Uploaded", and "Size" columns.
    Currently, the "Size" column shows the number of files.
    In addition to the number of files, we'd like to see the size of the file (i.e. how many bytes).
    Could you show the number of bytes in the "size" column along with the number of files?

    ウェブアプリには現在、「名前」「アップロード済み」「サイズ」の欄があります。
    現在、「サイズ」欄にはファイル数が表示されています。
    ファイル数に加えて、ファイルのサイズ(つまり何バイトか)を表示して欲しいと考えています。
    ファイルの数と一緒に「サイズ」欄にバイト数を表示してもらえませんか?

  6. Update the web app to support up to 1 TB of content, at least 10,000 folders

    The Box Web App doesn't support large folder structures. I can successfully upload a folder with >100 GB of content (files are no larger than 4 GB each), and I can share the link. But the web interface only supports download of folders with up to 10 GB of content, even though Box supports files up to 32 GB! To download the folder, the user must use Box Drive or other client, which isn't an option for users without a Box account on the instance.

  7. [Microsoft Edge] Hidden files and shortcuts should be uploaded by using the Upload Folders feature with Microsoft Edge

    [Microsoft Edge] Hidden files and shortcuts should be uploaded by using the Upload Folders feature with Microsoft Edge
    Current Edge(not Chromium based) is not able to upload hidden files and shortcuts by using the Upload Folders feature due to browser limitation.

    Enterprises who have a policy to only allow the usage of the legacy version of Microsoft Edge. Therefore, cannot back up hidden files to Box

  9. Time code to be displayed in the HD video player

  11. Enterprise site for external collaborators

    We'd like the ability to offer external collaborators a specific domain or sub-domain when collaborating in our company's folder.

    Intent is to better adoption with agencies that are hesitant to allow our Box account on their networks as it currently means that have to all All-Box on their network (e.g. app.box.com)

  12. Allow Viewer permission when inviting a collaborator through Single File Collab

    Right now, editor is the only immediate permission available, but users can be changed to "viewer" after the fact. It's just an extra step.

    As we transition away from attachments, shared links (from Box or others) are being emailed.

  18. Ability to choose default shared link access security level on a per user basis

    We have the default shared link permission to people in the folder or file.

    We would like to change that default for one user to be "People in your company" for example.

    This is not currently planned for development. We will consider this with additional customer demand.

  20. Invite Collabs Pop-Up: Add Optional 'Send notification?' Checkbox

    Currently in Box, when a user uses the Invite Collaborators pop-up to invite someone to a folder, an invitation email is always generated for the recipient. This is good in some scenarios, but creates a lot of email noise in many other situations where the inviter really doesn't want the recipient to receive an email notification.

    Google Drive provides a 'Notify user?' checkbox on their 'invite' pop-up that allows you to 'silently' add the recipient to a folder without sending them an email notification.

    Request: Add 'notify users?' checkbox to the invite collabs pop-up
