Expire shared links for external users, but not internal employees
When employees use shared links to exchange sensitive data with clients, we set them to expire for security reasons. However, when we later encounter a shared link within an internal email or slack message, we can no longer see what it linked to. We could go run a report to find out, but that would be a support ticket. It would be much better if shared links could just continue working for employees (if they are permitted direct access) even after they have expired for external users.
Before link expiration, content is accessible to anybody internal or external who has…

Links
When sharing a link, if a user has Box installed, it prompts them to sign in or sign up; they do not get an option to simply open the link. This is unfriendly! Let's make Box less nerdy and more sensitive to the user experience.
I have clients who will not use box links because of this.

I would like to request the implementation of a folder lock feature in the UI to prevent folder movement via drag-and-drop.
In BOX, when performing file and folder operations with an administrator account, unintended moves may occur due to drag-and-drop actions.
As a solution to this issue, I would like to request the implementation of a feature in the UI that allows folders to be locked at will, either through the folder's options or from the admin console.
For example, the folder's options could include the ability to lock/unlock individual folders, while the admin console could allow for bulk locking/unlocking of all folders or specific hierarchies.
It has been confirmed that folder locking functionality can be achieved with vendor-provided tools, so…

Unify Time Zone Handling for Expiration Dates of File Requests and Shared Links
Currently, Box handles expiration dates differently depending on the feature: Shared Links use PST/PDT as the standard, while File Requests rely on the local time zone of the device used to create the link. As a result, even when the same expiration date is set, the actual expiration timing can differ between the two types of links.
Having different time zone behaviors across Box features lacks consistency in implementation and is not intuitive for users. We kindly request that the time zone handling be unified across features.
【In Japanese】

ファイルリクエストと共有リンクの有効期限におけるタイムゾーン仕様の統一を希望＜本文＞
現在、Boxでは「共有リンク」はPST/PDT基準で有効期限が処理される一方、「ファイルリクエスト」はリンク作成時の端末のタイムゾーンに依存して処理されるため、同じ日付を設定してもリンクが無効になるタイミングが異なります。Box の機能間でタイムゾーンの動作が異なると、実装に一貫性がなくなり、ユーザーに混乱を原因となりますので、機能間でタイムゾーンの扱いを統一していただくようお願いいたします。

Viewer cannot copy the contents of a file.
Viewer can copy the file itself, but not the contents of the file.
If the file itself can be copied, then the contents of the file should also be copied. This is more intuitive and easier to understand.
Also, if the file itself can be copied, there is no security issue if the contents of the file can be copied.The users just don't want the contents of the file to be edited.
Rather, they want the contents of the file to be copied.The inability of viewers to copy the contents of files is ineffective in every respect.

To terminate a document management system and manage documents only with Box.
Currently, version control is possible only on a single file basis.
For document management, version control is necessary to manage mulitple files as a single content.

We are experiencing an issue where the layout of PDF files is distorted on the preview screen. For example, issues such as line breaks being misaligned or fonts being changed from the original PDF file are occurring. We understand that your company's support site states that you cannot guarantee 100% reproducibility, but we have received strong requests for improvement from customers who have signed contracts with us and use Box, so we would appreciate it if you could proceed with the improvement.
プレビュー画面でPDFファイルのレイアウトが崩れてしまうという現象が発生している。例えば、改行の位置がずれている、フォントが元のPDFファイルから変わってしまっている、といった現象が発生している。100％の再現性を保証しないことは貴社のサポートサイトに記載されていて理解していますが、弊社と契約を結びBoxをご利用いただいているお客様から強い改善要望をいただいており、改善を進めていただきたく宜しくお願いします。

Make file versioning the default behavior for Box CLI "box files:upload" command
if file versioning is the default behavior when uploading files in the URL Box web page; Why isn't that exactly the same behavior when uploading files thru the "box files:upload /path-to-file/filename.ext --parent-id FolderID" box CLI command?
The logic is straight forward:
1) If the file does not exist in the box folder, then create the file
2) If the file DOES exist in the box folder, then instead of displaying that horrible warning message "409 Conflict, the file already exists", please update the content of the file and increase the FILE version number.

Symlinks in Box to Solve Core Content Organizational Problems.
Box needs symlink support to solve this fairly standard problem that likely happens in every company.
Let's say you manage a team, and you have a team folder and a team structure for how you like to organize and store your files. Inside of that folder are meeting notes, projects, architecture documents, demo recordings, Hiring/Interview Documents and more.
The problem is, eventually the...
- HR team grows and wants to standardize on everyone's interview documents, hiring panels, and more, so they tell you where to put these sorts of files.

Inheritance of permission settings
When a file/folder is “moved” instead of “copied”, the collaborator's privileges are inherited as they were before the move. We would like to see the system modified so that after the move, the privileges are changed to those set in the higher-level folder at the destination, as per the waterfall system.

Addition of Content Inventory Function
The current Box service does not have a content inventory function.
It is very inconvenient to manually organize content every time it increases.
We request the implementation of a dedicated inventory function as it would improve operational efficiency.
As an example, we hope for the implementation of a function that allows the following settings.[example]
・Organize files that have not been updated since they were stored and unnecessary files
・Files that are accessed but not updated should not be organized.件名：コンテンツの棚卸機能の追加
現在のBoxサービスにはコンテンツの棚卸機能はありません。
常時コンテンツが増える毎に手動で整理するのは非常に不便となります。
棚卸専用の機能を実装する事で、業務効率が上がる為要望します。
例として以下設定が可能な機能が実装される事を希望しています。[例]
・格納してから更新が無いファイルや不要なファイルを整理
・更新が無いだけでアクセスされているようなファイルは整理対象外にする等1 vote
