  1. Filter folders by date modified when selecting "Move or Copy"

    Would like to have the ability to filter folders by date modified when selecting "Move or Copy." Currently files are organized by alpha and I have to scroll through files to find the one I recently created.

  2. 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.

  3. Prevent the easy deletion of root level folders

    We accidentally deleted a root level folder for millions of folders.

    This may be done by locking the folder, where it could allow users to create/edit/delete the contents within the folder, but not allowing the locked folder itself to be rename/moved/deleted.

    This may also help Box Sync (and possibly Box Drive) users, as many Box Sync users often delete the top level folders by accident.

  4. custom url for embedded widgets.

    Hi there,
    I ran into a case today where I wanted to customize the URL shown in the embedded widget.
    Similar to how you can have a custom URL for a shared link, I was wondering if it's possible to have the same for the embed widget. note, not to be confused with the upload widget.

    I am not sure how it will play with the upload widget but it would be good if you can customize those too.

    Please let me know your thoughts.

  5. Locking Folder Names

    We have systems integrating with folders on Box.com. These functions either provide workflow timestamps, or move files from folder to folder. In order for these integrations to work seamlessly, folders cannot be accidentally or purposely renamed.

  8. Bulk-delete comments

    we'd like a way for admins to delete old comments for files owned by managed users in bulk rather than one by one for files that have a lot of activity in their side activity panels.

  9. wrap long file names in the main UI. restore old namewrap UI feature.

    I've noticed where other folks have suggested similar ideas and been told to use the BOX UI to create their own version. Not sure what the big deal is. we dont have programmers on staff but if you enlarge the font for a disabled person even short file names become too large to fit on the UI. I think even if long filenames is LOW probability, it occurs enuf to consider offering it. Practically every filename we have is too long so it drives us nuts. Video filenames are the worst because of a zillion versions. Can you imagine a…

  10. Reduce amount of steps needed to create bookmarks in Box.

    Can be simplified with a simple context menu (e.g. right-click > create bookmark) and then either copy the bookmark or choose a destination.

  12. "Virtual Documents" / Groupings of documents that together form one master document

    Box should have the ability to get documents together in a collection. This collection should then be versionable, regardless of the versions of the documents.

    Thinks a personal dossier. Some documents might update a couple of time, before I declare the whole dossier as a new version.

    Tools like documentum have a concept of virtual documents. My opinion to those implementation is that they are really bad from a user perspective. Therefore we should do it better.

  13. Improve viewer-uploader copy experience

    Copy is only possible for viewer-uploader through shortcut. It should be available through button/command too, it would be consistent with other role and it would improve user productivity

  14. Strip down and rebuild.

    I've been a user for years. It used to be easy and reliable. It is now a nonintuitive stupid mess. And it doesn't even work properly. I just tried to download a bunch of files, twice, and both times the zipped folder could not be opened.

  15. Save draft email and addresses for Send Shared Link until sent

    I have a request to fix what I consider a flaw in the Box.com environment. When I share a file or folder, I sometimes decide to add restrictions after I have already put in all the email addresses and typed up a message. However, if I go to the restrictions page and then come back to the message page, ALL of my email addresses and the message I typed are GONE! In other words, I have to start all over again. Can this be changed so that you can toggle back and forth between the message page and the restrictions…

  16. Update shared link expiration workflow is confusing

    The workflow to update the shared link expiration date on the mobile app is confusing and not intuitive.

    Here’s what I would have expected to happen:

    1. I get email in my inbox warning me that a file or folder that I own or collaborate on is expiring soon
    2. I click the link contained in the email
    3. I see a screen that gives me an option to extend the date or not
    4. I make an update or leave it as-is and confirm
    5. Done

    Instead here’s what actually happens

    1. I get email in my inbox warning me that a file or folder…

  17. Preview embedded videos in PDFs

    We have a team that wants to embed videos in PDFs and have that render using Box’s previewer in the browser. The target audience will only be able to view these files in the browser and not download them.

  20. Filter search for "Files with all tags" when searching with tags

    Currently when you search for multiple tags you receive results for anything with any of those tags. It would be very helpful to be able to filter this result to something like "Only show files with all of these tags"
