Visible folder tree (selected folders) and Request access to folders
We face challenges with permission management and ensuring relevant access to folders for staff outside of their Division/Department/Countries. One great solution would be to have the possibility to display part of a folder tree, and to be able to request access to some folders within that folder tree. In this way, a funding person from an affiliate HQ could request access to the EA or PA country’s funding folder to the country funding focal point. This could technically be managed with a very complex use of Box Groups, but it would be an extremely useful alternative solution.

Move "Upload" button away from "New" button
Placement of "Upload" Button next to "New" Button is confusing and causing mis-clicks. Request to move it so that it is not immediately next to "New".
I usually drag and drop for uploads, so not sure the Upload button has much value where it is. Whereas I am regularly using "New" to create folders, bookmarks, files, etc.

Box needs a widget that is not iFrame based so that it complies with eBay's listing policy.

Note that this will not comply with the eBay listing policy either which is quite strict on use of external sources. You’ll simply have to rely on links or some of the ebay specific providers that have developed solutions for this.

more keystrokes = worse user experience
In the last month, when I create a new folder I've noticed I now have to tab into the field to name the folder. It didn't used to work this way. Previously, upon creating a new folder, the cursor would automatically be waiting for me to type in the folder name. This isn't the first time that Box has updated a feature to require more keystrokes. The same thing happened with the Share>Create Link feature sometime within the last year. It takes one or two more keystrokes to create an open sharable link now.
So this request is specific in…

viewer uploader edit file name
Would like to explore a custom permission level - between Viewer-Uploader and Editor, which would have all of the Viewer-Uploader rights, as well as the ability to "Edit File Name".
The use case for this is the following - some users upload documents to a folder, but then need to be able to rename the documents. Renaming the documents before upload isn't an option due to specific workflow constraints. Giving Editor permission is not an option as there's been negative experiences with users accidentally moving or deleting customer folders.
Thanks

Limiting Box integration locations
When creating a Box Integration - the ability to limit which folder(s) the integration appears in would be helpful. Some features are not applicable to all folders.

The rename button needs to be on top and not blocked by subsequent columns
Since a recent update, the rename button (being the pencil icon at the end of the item name) dissappears behind the subsequent columns. This means I can no longer just click on it to accurately name new items. This used to be always accessable and now I must go thr long wayt around to rename items - which is for every. single. item.
Please correct this ASAP!1 vote -
Automated Folder Actions
Under Folder Settings -> Automated Actions, the "Unshare this folder on a specific date" option is a little confusing/misleading as it does not indicate that this is only for folders with a Shared Link enabled, and has nothing to do with removing/unsharing collaborations. Recommend the language be updated in this setting, instead of saying "Folder must be shared first" to "Shared Link must be enabled first"

It is really frustrating when sharing a file & writing an explanation that is deemed "too long" - so your system just deletes it & there's n

View comments without opening a file's preview
We would like to hover over a file and be able to see the file's comments by the comments appearing at the bottom or side of the page. We would love to see this on both mobile and desktop but would ask for priority on desktop. We write descriptions for our files in comments and then organize our files this way - this becomes time consuming when we have to open each file to preview to view the comments. If we can just hover over the file without opening it to see comments, it would really increase productivity!

Email notifications for uploads to a folder are very delayed
We would like to request the email service that is responsible for sending upload notifications to be in real time so we do not waste time having to double check with collaborators if they have uploaded something yet.

Default shared link order to ascending order by "Name "
When sharing a link to a folder or file, the default order of the files (or folders) that you are viewing is by updated date. It would make more sense for it to automatically be in alphabetical order when the recipient clicks on the link to open the Box.

File Request Link versioning
The new File Request feature is pretty awesome. Only thing is, when you upload a file with the same name, instead of creating it as a version in that folder, it uploads a new copy of that document with a long string of numbers at the end of it. Any word on if this will change in the future to support versioning?
7 votesThis is not planned as there are use cases where two different files with the same name being submitted.

History of recently shared files and collaborators
History of recently shared files and collaborators. Similar to the ‘Recents’ or ‘Notifications’, it’d be very useful to see a history (even if limited) of files that I shared with other team members.
