  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  4. Force Embed Video quality to 1080p

    Videos hosted through embed widgets links start in "Auto" video quality as default.
    I want them to start in 1080p.

  5. 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.

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

  6. 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

  7. 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.

  9. Update "Box login from..." email notification

    When I access Box from a new browser or device, I get "Box Login from...." email notification from Box.

    Within the email body, it said "You can manage your login activity list from the Security tab and your notifications from the Notifications tab of your Account Settings." but there is no "Notifications" tab under user Account settings.

    Instead there is a "Sharing" tab under which there is a section for "General Emails and Notifications". Could you please fix the wording with in the email notification body to reflect the correct tab and section. It helps the end users to get…

  10. Ability to create custom portal page

    We'd like the ability within Box to create a custom portal page that external collaborators could use to view and collaborate on files with us.

  11. Only allow submission of an invite form if the custom text length is acceptable

    Regarding the new 254 character limit on custom messages in collaborator invites:

    If there is an invalid email address in the top field, it is highlighted with a red message and the invite cannot be sent until the exception is fixed.

    If there is an invalid message length in the bottom field, then it should be highlighted in red and the invite cannot be sent until the exception is fixed.

    Or, just prevent that field from containing more than 254 characters. Some sites include a "remaining characters" counter next to the window to make this limitation clear.

    The current user…

  12. List of folders with overridden email notifications

    Many users choose to override the default email notifications for certain box folders but then forget which folders they chose the override setting. It would be nice under the Notifications section to list which folders the user has chosen to override email notification settings.

  13. 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.

  14. Create a view of files or folders with unsupported names

    Currently: If a file has an unsupported name, it will be listed in Box Drive or Box Sync without their path name. Users will have to manually search for the file which is not feasible if they have thousands of files with unsupported names.

    Desired: Create a view of files or folders with unsupported search names in the Box web app to make it easy to rename and removes the process of having to manually search for them.

    Nice to Have: Have a button, when clicked, expands to reveal the full path of files or folders with unsupported names

  16. Allow 'show folder' button when multiple items are moved/copied

    Multiple items are always moved/copied to the same location, therefore a user should be able to navigate to where those items were moved as you can with single file moves/copies.

  17. Folder sharing workflow to show all options by default

    Currently, when I click on "share this folder", I have only a minimal screen.
    For security I ALWAYS want to expire the shared link after some days, but currently I need to click the link for additional options, before I can set an expiration date.

    I would help me a lot on my day-to-day work, if ALL SHARING OPTIONS would be visible at once, after I click on the "share this folder" button. An in my opinion it would also help other customers to protect their shares, as they would be aware of the additional functionality (expiration, passcode set).

    If…

  19. Removing files from a single page of a multi-page folder shows confusing message

    After deleting all items from one page (of multiple) of a Folder’s content, the page says “There are no items in this folder.”

    This is not accurate since there are other pages of content within the folder.

    Can this be changed as it can be confusing?
