  2. Add native search functionality to CSV or text files from within the web app

    The Box web app does not currently have native search functionality for CSV or text files. The browser find bar fails because the system hides information that's not visible.

    Can this functionality be added so that I'm not forced to re-download files to simply search them?

  3. View is broken after binning multiple items - needs to force a refresh?

    I hit a bug:

    I had 33 files in a folder. (There are 20 per page). I selected the first 20 (one page of files) and clicked Bin to move them to the bin.

    The files went to the bin and once the process completed, the view showed "There are no items in this folder."

    ...but there are - there are still 13 files in the folder!

    Hitting F5 to refresh didn't fix this.
    Hitting "Next Page" took me to a "There are no items in this folder" page with no page navigation buttons. (I guessing this is because it…

  4. “Fit to window” on preview page

    When I preview a presentation or some document that is oriented landscape or is just wide, the document is cut off on the right-hand side by the activity stream window and menu system. Preview should always “fit to window” so I can see the whole document.

  5. We would like the ability to create a file in Box from our cloud applications rather than the local applications.

    As you can change the default application a document type can be opened with, we would like that ability with creating files as well.

    At the moment, creating a file within the WebApp defaults to Box Tools and cannot be changed.

  6. Notify user when moving a folder breaks collaborator permissions

    When moving a folder that has inherited permissions from a higher folder, the webapp should recognize that it will lose those collaborations. It would also be great if it then asked the user if it is ok, if they would like to cancel the move, or if they would like to invite the collaborators on the folder in its new location.

  7. Configurable character limits for Custom URLs

    Provide enterprises with the ability to opt in or out of the 12 character minimum requirement for Custom URLs; alternatively: allow enterprise Admin to specify the minimum character requirement for the enterprise

  8. Add Share overview

    Currently our end user do not know what they have shared. It would be great everyone has a tab showing them which folders and files they have shared and how it was shared. (incl expiration). That will give them an overview they can go through to see if folders are still require to be shared.

  9. Share this Folder

    On a shared (collaborated) folder ensure that the "Share this Folder" option is removed from all external collaborators as testing has shown that it is possible for an external collaborator (even with viewer permissions) to enable sharing and get a copy of the shared link albeit the link defaults to “internal access” only.

  11. Box Community Username Creation

    This is just a small nuisance, but when logging into Box Community, the site takes credentials from whatever user you are logged in as in other tabs. Including any users that you're logged in under the admin console with. It often asks you to create a username as the user has not created a box community username. Additionally, are no options to view what email address it's asking to create a username with. More often than not we end up creating a bogus username just to get the thing to go away, as the end user would rather approach us…

  12. Fix blurred text when zoomed in on browser

    I'm always at 110% zoom on Box in my web browser because it's much easier to see the text that way. But, I've noticed pretty much all the text looks a little blurry, especially when opening a dropdown menu or popup window, and mousing over a button. Could you please fix this and make the web browser app more responsive?

  13. Please add ”LIKE! or Stamp" feature (Just like facebook and slack)

    Me and my colleagues want this feature, to show gratitude to the person who created the content.
    After new feature "Feed" has released, in my team, sharing the content become more effective. We can notice the new documents and see and use or give he/she an advise. which help our team really a lot. However, I cannot show gratitude to the person who created the content... so I am using slack to say thank you...

  14. Box Sync: Sharing file Message box character length too short

    When sharing a file; in the Message (optional) text box please list the max amount of characters that can be entered in that box. Also, can we increase the number of characters in that box to maybe around 400? It was recently decreased and is now effecting my ability to do my job.

  15. New "simplified link"

    I hate the new "simplified link" deployment.

    When I post a new file online to make it available to one of my clients, I simply copy and paste the link into an email I send them. With this new deployment, the shared link must first be enabled (it is disabled by default). This means you've just added at least a couple of additional clicks to my work flow each and every time I send a link to a customer. One or two additional links doesn't sound like much, but when you do it hundreds or event thousands of times over…

  16. Ability to hide tags, and icons such as the sync icon, shared link icon, and comments icon in the user settings.

    I am asking as it makes the view very busy with all of these icons present and it would be nice to have a filter option with the view.

    I have in mind users that may not as tech savvy and can overwhelmed by the number of visible items.

  17. Would like a feature that boilerplate to the message box of Send Shared Link

    For example, the customer usually uses shared link with Send Shared Link.
    However, the customer sometimes faces insufficient information.
    So, he thinks he can prevent it if this feature is implemented.

  18. enhances audio playback controls

    Allow Users to be able to play audio at different speeds within Box. Additionally, have the ability to rewind audio for a certain number of seconds (for example, a 20 second rewind, 30 second rewind, etc.)
