  1. File Request+Metadata issue : Unexpected changing number via mouse operation

    When requesting a number field of metadata with a file request link, the number may changes unintentionally due to the user's scrolling the mouse.
    Can you improve the input field of the file request so that it is not affected by mouse scrolling?

  2. Ability to color code folders per agency within an Enterprise account while in the web portal view.

    To clarify/differentiate different agencies/companies under our main Enterprise, we would love to have the ability to apply color coding to folders in order to make it easier for those individuals who have access to multiple companies.

    Thank you!

  3. Box Embed Should Support Additional Query String Parameters to Show/Hide Content

    Box Embed currently uses query string parameters to show/hide certain content, for example "showParentPath" and "showItemFeedActions". For our use-case, we would benefit greatly from expanding the supported query string parameters to hide additional elements from the iframe. Examples include the ability to hide the filename with dropdown menu (including the All Files and Folders hyperlink), the "Download" and "Share" buttons, the arrows that let you navigate between recently viewed files, and the "X" button that allows you to close out of the currently viewed document and be returned to the "All Files and Folders" view.

    By supporting additional boolean query…

  4. Move the "Upload, Folder, Word Document, Excel File" option in a folder

    Any time I open a folder, my subfolders / files populate below, but after .5-1 second, four of the most annoying boxes in the world pop up above that list called "Upload, Folder, Word Document, and Excel File." This causes all of the subfolders / files to be shifted down so that even when I try to quickly click on one, it will go to the wrong folder because everything has just shifted down. While I often use these options, trying to get from folder to folder is made so much slower and it's insanely aggravating to have to wait…

  5. Display error when entering unsupported characters when renaming folders and files

    When creating a new folder or file, if you include characters not supported by Box (other than Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane characters), receive an error.
    However, when renaming, I can name files and folders using characters other than BMP.
    (After renaming a folder or file, the character will automatically change to "_" after a while.)

    Please allow the same error to be displayed when an unsupported character is entered when renaming a folder or file,as when a new character is created.

    (日本語)
    <フォルダ名・ファイル名の変更時にサポートされていない文字を入力するとエラーを表示させる>

    現在、フォルダやファイル作成時にBoxでサポートされてるUnicodeの基本多言語面 (BMP)以外の文字を入力するとエラーが表示されます。
    しかし、名称変更時にはBMP以外の文字を使用したファイル名・フォルダ名を付けることができます。
    (変更後しばらくすると自動的に「_」変わります。)

    サポートされていない文字を入力したときに、新規作成と同じようにエラーを表示できるようにしてください。

  6. To enhance trash for users who had an access to contents to be able to see them in it

    Currently, only owner of deleted content or user who deletes content can see them in Trash. It would be helpful if deleted contents in trash can be seen by all of users who had collaborator permissions (e.g. above previewer).
    This is needed because when a user deletes contents (accidentally), the "non-owner" collaborators have a difficulty of knowing what happens on contents. For some enterprises, content owner is typically a service account so every time this happens we need to find the "culprit" or connect to IT who can access as owner, which is very painful.

  7. Enhancement to the UI when the user violates the limit on the number of items in the trash can that can be confirmed on the screen.

    I want to improve the behavior when the user violates the limit on the number of items in the trash can that can be confirmed on the screen.

    I want you to display up to the latest ○ items instead of displaying the contents at all.
    If it is difficult to realize this request, please display the screen of the reason why it is not displayed and the workaround screen instead of the error screen of "The specified page does not exist" to reduce the business impact.

    If it disappears suddenly, you will not be able to restore or confirm…

  8. Inactive Status - Should have visual indicator that shows the account is inactive when user is still a collaborator on folder/file

    When I change a user to inactive in the admin console, The user is still a collaborator on a folder or file. There is no way for the active folder collaborators to know if people are active or inactive. The inactive user should either appear greyed out in the list of users or have an red x or something to indicate this user is no longer active. You would become aware if you try to send a comment or at mention to the inactive user it will not pop up but that still doesnt emphasis that person is no longer…

  9. WebApp UI - Ability to collapse left sidebar

    New Box layout New Box layout takes up space, reduces visibility and ability to recognize folders/files

    Perhaps I am missing something. With the new Box web application, there is now a wide, persistent orange menu in a left sidebar. That menu does not appear to be something that I can hide. I use Box on a laptop with limited screen real estate, and the new sidebar eats up a lot of the space previously available to show data. As a result, my list of folders and documents is squeezed into a smaller space, and I see a much smaller set…

  10. Finding Priority Documents within a Folder that may have a hundred documents

    It would help to be able to mark certain documents with a red checkmark as a Priority or Important document and be able to see only those documents that are Priority or Important or whatever you want to name it. Some of our Folders contain a hundred documents or more and it would be great to just see only the documents that have been marked as Priority if that is what the attorneys choose to see rather than the hundred documents.

  11. UI improvements - Download Button

    received multiple feedback from users, where their client missing out the button on how to download, ended up they trying to sign up, which not ideal in term of fast pace workflow
    should be making the Download button bigger and colored, so more stands out,
    currently the button a bit hard to notice, but instead the Log In and Sign up superseded the overall view

  12. Increase capacity of the recycle bin to be unlimited.

    I want the capacity of the recycle bin to be unlimited.

    If the number of items in the recycle bin exceeds a certain value,
    the page will not be displayed properly as a "scale limit".

    I've heard that adding "?usemarker=true" to the end of the URL of the recycle bin page makes it accessible.
    However, there are some restrictions on the operation, and I would like to see the limit raised or made unlimited.

    ごみ箱の容量を無制限にしてほしい

    ごみ箱内のアイテム数が一定値を超えると「規模の限界」としてページが正常に表示されない仕様かと思います。
    ごみ箱ページのURLの最後に「?usemarker=true」を追加することでアクセスが可能になるということですが、
    操作に制限があることもあり、この限界ラインを上げる/無制限にするといった改修を希望します。

  13. Move the location of Welcome to Box pop up

    When I set the custom terms of service and a new user logs into Box for the first time, it is hidden by the "Welcome to Box" pop up. Could you please move the location of either one so that the new user can see the custom terms of service please?

  14. File counts do not refresh often enough for our needs

    The file counts within the webapp do not update regularly enough.

    We need to be able to see if there are files in folders and if so, how many, without having to look inside each folder.

  15. Comment Replies and Thumbs Up/Down

    It would be great to give a comment a thumbs up or down and be able to reply directly to someone's comment (ideally showing it indented under the person's comment, not at the bottom of the Activity/comment sidebar). This would help collaboration!

  16. Add simple editing functionality for videos in Box (e.g. trim or stitch)

    Add simple editing functionality for videos in Box (e.g. trim or stitch).

    We take a lot of videos. Mostly from Zoom. Sometimes 8 hour learning sessions. Simple stitching or trimming would be valuable. Dropbox has this.

  17. Removal of restrictions on the number of contents displayed in the Trash Box

    The limit on the number of contents that can be displayed in the Recycle Bin without using a marker base will be removed. Contents of 150 pages or more will be displayed in the Recycle Bin without limitation.

  19. Ability to print PDF documents without downloading

    In order to make it easier for the end user to print PDFs it'd be nice to have a print option directly in the context menu (both in the document preview and on document list).

    As PDFs tend to contain forms to fill in either interactively or manually it might be consiedered as useful to print them directly from the browser. Currently it's not possible as after user hits 'command + P' there's only 1 blank page to be printed.

    The current user path for printing a PDF is:
    1. Open a PDF in box webapp
    2. download it to…

  20. Comments with Links

    It would be ideal if links to Box content that are pasted into comments would default to open in a new browser tab, not replacing the current view of workflow needed while reading other comments.
