Remove "Mail All collaborators" button for folders with high numbers of collabs
This mail all functionality often fails (and produces strange behaviour such as repeatedly emailing people) when there is a high number of collaborators in the folder
0 votesThere are customer use cases for this button. Therefore, we will keep it. Thank you for the feedback!

Thanks for the suggestion!
Unfortunately, at this moment we don’t have the technical bandwidth to support Arabic and other right-to-left languages.

Apply "sort by name" function to shared links and collaboration invites.
It is challenging for external clients to locate the proper folder.
0 votesThank you for the suggestion! We’re not planning to change the defaults for users without Box accounts.
The recipient can choose to sort by name instead using the “View Options” button at the top of the files list.

Error Update Notification
Users sometimes get errors that "There was an error with "etc." Please try again later.
For example, a user accidentally deleted a large folder tree that they needed to restore. When they tried to restore it, they were told this item was still in the process of deleting and to try again later.
We would like an email when this action completes so we can continue with our work (in this case, a folder restore)
0 votesThanks for your feedback. We are currently trying to reduce the number of email notifications we send users, so will not be considering adding new emails in the short-medium term.

Previews may load more slowly the first time if the file has not been converted yet. Some file types may not be pre-converted. Subsequent viewings should be faster for these files.
Preview loading performance is something we’re always focused on improving, but there are no specific efforts on the roadmap for this right now.

Provide more clear password guidelines when creating a new account
For example, add a real-time check that tells the user what is missing in the current password while typing it.
0 votesThank you! This is not something we are planning to revise. We will reconsider with additional feedback.

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

Only allow owners & co-owners to share links outside of the collaborator permissions they themselves control
There is currently no ability to allow owners/co-owners of a folder to send open links, when the global enterprise settings are set to restrict sharing: 'People in this Folder'
0 votesThis is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized. We will reconsider with additional feedback.

Remove restrict files sharing within Folder Settings
We would like to remove a folder setting option that restricts sharing for files only or folders only

Open Link ability - single access
We would like to make a link that forces a person to login (i.e. related to previous feedback submission) and then have a link expire for that person after one access (one click of the link).

Thanks for the submission. I’m not sure we understand the user problem. Please add your feedback in the comments and we will reconsider.

Adjust the Get Info button to pull from the properties of a Box Link vs from the HTML Header tag information
This would be much more user friendly (and expected) for the proper data to populate when clicking Get Info if the hyperlink is a shared link.
We are mostly requesting that the folder name as a bookmark populates.

Only allow managed users/collaborators of an enterprise to log into customized login page
Ideally, users who use their subdomains to login should be our collaborators and users only.
0 votesThank you for your note! This is a relatively narrow use case. We will reconsider with additional customer demand.

Remove all Collaborators from Folder
We have a commonly changing set of external collaborators that need to be in a folder. This list may change every week or every month. Some of the folders may have large numbers of collaborators and there is no way to bump them all out if needed other than removing the folder completely.
0 votesThis currently seems like a much more narrow use case than the other requests we have gotten so it will not be prioritized in the short term.
We will reconsider with additional use cases and customer demand.

Allow users to determine when task assignees are notified of assigned tasks today).
As opposed to non-configurable email reminder.
0 votesI would like more information on the use cases before adding this to our backlog.

Individualized shared links
We'd like to be able to send customized links to specific individuals (e.g. company.box.com/JohnDoe) to know, even though they'd normally show as "Someone has Viewed your file", that it can be tracked back to being the particular person from that link.
We'd ideally like to send that same file to 5 different prospects with 5 customized links
0 votesGreat suggestion. This is not currently prioritized since it’s a narrower use case compared to the other items on our roadmap.

Adding cc of invitation sender to Folder Invitation Emails
Request: Add the folder invitation sender as a cc to all folder invitation emails
Rationale: Primary need to ensure recipient is aware of the sending email which generally denotes the company. Right now, it only has the sender's first and last name which is highly arbitrary in many scenarios in inviting external users.
0 votesGood suggestion! This doesn’t rank high enough on our list of priorities for Web App, but we will re-evaluate with additional demand.

This is an edge case request. We will reconsider if there is additional demand.

Add double-click to open
When you want to open a file in Box you always have to do 2 steps.
Open the file in the webapp, and the "open in"
Or, via the ... menu and then "open in"0 votes
