'Email Shared Link' - Allow Searches to Include Spaces
The 'email shared link' feature (in the Shared Link pop-up) does not allow the user to enter a space when typing in the name/email field, meaning a user cannot type someone's first and last name to narrow down to exactly who they want.

'Not available' error message when accessing a link needs to be more specific.
Please fix the ambiguous 'Not available' and 'Unable to Download File on Box EMM' error messages when users attempt to click on links sent to them that they don't have access to.
Instead of users being sent shared links, they are being sent URL's for files/folders that only the sender has access to (as designed). They are asking for the error message to be more specific, and to say something like the following:
"The requested page does not exist, or you do not have permission to view it, or this is not a Box Shared Link. Please check the URL…2 votes -

Embed - Custom Branding Should Be Respected
Currently, an EID's custom branding settings (colors, logos, help URLs, etc.) are not respected/funneled through to the Embed UI. Essentially, the Embed UI is a totally separate UI currently and customers would prefer that it's just a smaller (responsive) window into the full webapp, respecting all custom branding, etc.
Customers would like Embed to...
1. Respect custom branding coloring
2. Respect the 'help' link that's set in the custom branding tab of the admin console5 votes -

Default Time zone to local machine
A significant portion of our workforce is global; however Time Zone always defaults to what is set in Admin Console (under new user default).

Embed Widget should dynamically resize folder name truncation
Long folder names are truncated when the embed widget is too small. However if you were to then expand the widget without refreshing the page, the folder truncation doesn't refresh.

Publish Web App Release Notes to Box Community
Release notes for the webapp to show changes which impact User experience (i.e. - a significant look/feel change to a part of the UI, or a functionality/behaviour change) to be included here: https://community.box.com/t5/Release-Notes/tkb-p/releasenotes
Doing this will allow Box customers to identify changes quickly and decide themselves about which users it will impact and whether or not they need to communicate it to their users.
This will also help Box customers to triage themselves whether a change they identify is a bug or expected.
0 votesThank you for this suggestion! We have enhanced how we track Release Notes in Community.
