  1. Change prompt message for shared-folder deletion

    Currently the message is "Are you sure you want to delete this item",
    but when it is shared by other people, in most cases users are not aware that other collaborators will not be able to access that folder and all included files.

    Suggest the message to be specific and please also add additional prompt like "Are you sure? This folder has XX items in it." since we have experienced few times that root folders are deleted and 1-2 days are needed to restore.

  2. Add description option to 'All files' level to give information/instruction to users

    Requesting a description section to allow for information that would always show at the top of the 'All files' view. Potential uses:
    - Basic info for new users, pinned to screen they see after login
    - Guidance and company updates that could be changed as required
    - (Where folder/upload is restricted at 'All files' level) Instruction for users about where to create content

  3. Upload multiple folders using Upload button

    I am trying to migrate data from my desktop to Box. I am able to upload multiple files at the same time but not multiple folders.

    I would like to place a feature request for “upload multiple folder using “upload” button on Box web app.

  4. Embed Slack into Box Web Page

    Embed Slack Plug-in into bottom right corner of Box Web Page, so companies who use both solutions can get the best of Slack, while working out of Box.

  5. Show “Invited by” in collaboratos list

    When there are lots of co-owners we need to know who invited collaborators (Internal and External) to the folder, for security reason and to track unwanted invitees and their inviters. There is “invited by” in Collaboration Report. Please show that also in collaboration page.

  6. Remove Sync button from the left menu bar

  7. Updated field in List view should be the same as the updated field in metadata.

    When data is migrated by migration tools, the updated field in metadata is set as the last modified date of local file.
    But the updated field in list view is shown the date of update to Box.

    It makes a customer in confuse. So, the updated field in list view must be the same as the updated field in metadata.

  8. Show roles/permissions table when configuring the collaboration

    Previously, we were able to see the table and easier to compare the roles.

  9. Default to 100% zoom out for 360 preview

    When you use 360 preview, it is zoomed in a little bit by default right after opening the file. We always have to zoom out to get the full picture. We would like the 360 preview not be zoomed in right after opening and have the preview start zoomed out.

  10. @mention notifications should know when you @mention yourself

    Change messaging of @mention emails when @mentioning yourself. Currently it says “someone” @mentioned you, while it would make more sense to provide a response such as “you mentioned yourself in a comment.”

  11. Disable preview mode when opening Office 365 files

    Preview mode is an extra step that is confusing our technically challenged and upper management. Believe it or not, they come across this roadblock (as it is perceived) and get turned off by Box, thereby defaulting back to opening locally.

  12. Make Shared link pages/views customizable

    We would love to be able to adjust the view of certain links that are being shared out to users who don't have a Box account. Make the banner customizable so we can direct them more appropriately, and allow the buttons to be altered such that the login and sign up buttons may be hidden, and only the download button remaining in view.

  13. Merge versions of the same document in Box Web App

    Have the ability to merge two versions of the same document into one document with two versions without having to download one version, upload it as a new version, and then deleting the version that is now a copy.

  15. Force Embed Video quality to 1080p

    Videos hosted through embed widgets links start in "Auto" video quality as default.

  16. ELIMINATE the display message " We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" " as it terrifies our customers

    Display message "We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" scares our customers on the download shared link page. They think it is an ERROR and will not download the .ISO or other file that cannot be PREVIEWED. Make the message SPECIFIC to PREVIEW:
    "Preview not available for this file type, click Download to continue"
    or just
    "Preview not available for this file type"

    Saying it is UNSUPPORTED means too many bad things. If this is not fixed, we will leave BOX. Seriously.

    not planned  ·  Stephanie Zhang responded

    Interesting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

  17. Allow users to limit simultaneous uploads

    We would like to control the number of uploads that upload simultaneously (ie ability to limit to 1). The belief is that, if files are uploading 5 at a time, and they fail 80% of the way through upload, you have to start again, whereas if it was uploading 1 at a time, and worked its way through 80 percent of the queue, less files would need to be retried

  18. Allow 'Previewer' role when inviting a collaborator to a file

    Currently the 'Previewer' role is available when inviting someone to a folder, however this level is not available when inviting someone to a file.

  19. Combine Feed with Notifications and Recents to make one seamless experience

    If you could combine feed with notifications + recents into one screen. Our users find that they’re often switching back in forth between the screens; if you could have a screen with three columns including all of these items and have a way to sort them, scroll them – that would be one experience and save time flipping between pages.
