Allow Customization for 'Email to Upload' Email Address
Perhaps if the email address was tied to the actual instance like:
TEST_As.gbtuzmz6o0d088go@company.box.com
Then the Box server would have the ability to segregate all the addresses and we would not have issue of competition for addresses between companies that use Box. Thus be able to allow custom email addresses PER company. (i.e. allow us to modify address).
6 votesThis is not currently planned. Thank you for the submission.

Ability to pin a folder to remain at the top of the main Box Web App screen.
Either a user or an admin should be able to pin a folder.
Using favorites is the current alternative, but for usability purposes and sharing important content, pinning would be helpful as well
48 votesThank you for the suggestion. There are definitely use cases for which this would be useful, but it is not currently prioritized for this year. We will revisit this in the future.

Allow editors to overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget
Currently editors cannot overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget. It makes sense for editors to be able to change this option.
3 votesThank you for this suggestion! This is a low priority because it’s a very narrow use case. Changing this functionality does not impact a large enough user base.

This limit is in place to prevent scale related issues. We are not planning to change this in the immediate future.

Add print functionality under "more options" tab on file level list instead of having to go to preview or open the file
Currently it is only possible to print a document from the preview window or by opening the document.
Request: consistency of experience and adding an option on the file list level (under More Options)

Keyboard Shortcuts - Allow Shift+S to Open Shared Link Modal for Current Folder
REQUEST: Hitting Shift+S should open the Shared Link pop-up for the current folder when no items are selected.
Currently there is no way (via keyboard) to open the Shared Link pop-up for the folder one is currently in.
2 votesInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Have the Box Embed Widget support responsive scaling of videos.
YouTube embeds do this automatically, so we just wrap those in a responsive div tag and they scale with screen width, but I can't get a Box embed to do the same with our CSS.

Allow users to set a.box.com as their default engagement method to Box through a web browser.
The ability for a user to go to box.com or cloud.box.com or domain.box.com and set the accessible version of Box as default for a specific user or group of users.
This would allow users with unique needs such as visual impairments to navigate to their preference without first making a conscious decision to head to a.box.com or through box.com
1 voteWe strive to integrate accessibility into the Box Web App.

Show Folder Size in 'Size' Column (In Addition to Item Count)
The webapp currently has a 'Size' column that shows item count for Folders, and item size for Files.
REQUEST: For consistency, show both Item Count AND Size for Folders (not just Item Count).

Add 'trusted websites' to suppress the 'Leaving Box' interim step
When users click on a bookmark that takes them to an external website, there is an interim page that requires them to 'click continue' to verify they trust this website and are ok with 'Leaving Box'.
Request: Provide admins with the opportunity to input which websites allow their users to bypass this interim screen as a 'trusted' website.
1 voteThis interstitial (‘leaving Box’) page exists due to some requirements from our Security team.
Providing a whitelist for companies to use is not a feature that the Web App team will be prioritizing in the near future given other commitments.

User-Level 'History/Activity Manager' - View Prior Actions with Option to Undo
Users often perform a variety of actions in their account - renaming files, moving files, copying files, etc.
There's always a success/failure banner (with an 'undo' button) for these larger actions (like move/copy), but that banner is dismissed pretty quickly
There are scenarios, however, where a user performs an action (especially a somewhat destructive action - like accidentally moving a bunch of files) and they need to undo it AFTER the 'undo?' banner disappears.
REQUEST: Add an 'Activity Manager' or 'History Manager' at the account level that allows a user to view their actions and undo applicable ones. For example,…
6 votesThank you for this request! I can appreciate this use case. This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

Permanent Folder Tree View in Webapp (Similar to Windows Explorer/Finder)
Currently we have a 'jump to folder' option that provides a modal for navigating by using a folder tree view. Many customers would like this same tree view of their content as a permanent sidebar in the webapp for faster/easier 1) navigation and 2) context for where they're at in any given folder tree.
