Directly link between box drive and box for outlook & box notes
Currently, Box for outlook can only access to box online which requires authentication each time which is not a smart process. Could we have box for outlook link directly to box drive to save and upload files instead? This will be more efficient for box drive users.
Also have the same issue with box notes. This cannot be accessed directly to/from box drive.

Warning/Prompt before deleting items in Box Drive
This is to avoid users accidentally deleting content in Box Drive. Users sometimes delete items unintentionally and it's too late for them when they receive email notifications.

Ability to close the black box at bottom of documents containing zoom features, pages and other editing tools
A black box appears on the pdf documents we use.
It contains zoom features, pages and other editing tools.
Unfortuantely, it blocks important client info on our documents.
Many times you can't get it to disappear.
Would like a function where you could close the box on command, and then refresh if you want it back.2 votes -
SSO multi-zone assignment through Box Drive log in
We have an enterprise initiative to start leveraging Box drive through our file share migration to Box. The usage is expected to be high within our enterprise since we are working towards enabling Box as an enterprise level application. Since we are a global company, we have requirements regarding data residency and data location within Box. While Zones provide that functionality, through our testing we found the Zone assignment doesn't change when the login is initiated from Box Drive, it only changes when you log through Web UI.
Although the workaround is pretty obvious and have people log in through…2 votes -
I want you to be able to save the marked-up PDF data stand alone,or print.
I want you to be able to save the marked-up PDF data stand alone,or print.
Now, every member can mark up PDF data at once, but we cannot save the data as evidence or log of checking. if we can save the data as marked-up PDF in local folder it helps us very much.Because we who work for building architecture, have to check
thousands of drawings and have to save these checked data.3 votes -

Have sync centralised in cloud and automatically sync between website and computers
Keep the concept in Box Sync where you choose what folders you want to sync on Box.com or via Box Drive on computer. Then Box.com and all computers using Box Drive should sync those folders. I don't understand why we currently use "Make Available Offline" feature to individualise syncing for each computer instead for all computers of same account.
Also, documentation says you lose these offline files once you log out of Box Drive. That's a pain if you have to redo choosing which folders to make available offline.
Overall, sync like in Box Sync is a more desirable feature…

Ability to adjust document autosave sensitivity (if not, it makes version history obsolete )
Recently noticed our company document autosaves are soaking up all of our version histories. Box Drive is reading every time a document is edited and autosaved as a new version. Even if you are actively editing the document it still is reading all autosaves the document itself is doing. For Mac Office, this occurs about every minute and there's no way to adjust it. I remember Box Drive being able to know if the document was edited or not upon close or save. This allowed for our version history to go back several months instead of several hours. Very bad…

If I use Box Drive，my computer's local Recycle is not available ?
Whenever a file is deleted from my computer's local Box Drive, it doesn't go in the trash itself. I am not able to see the file in my computer's local trash, it has synched to Box Driver in the first place.

Open shared links in Windows Explorer
It would be great having the option for shared links to be opened in the Windows Explorer directly (if Box Drive / Box Sync is installed). Today, when a shared link is clicked, e.g. on Slack, it opens in the web browser, adding complexity to the workflow (e.g. having to log in, limited editing functionality, etc.). Most of our team today revert to clicking the shared link just to identify the location of the file in the browser, then finding and opening the file manually on Box Drive.

I want to restrict the installation of the desktop application by user
Is it possible to add a feature to the management console that allows me to limit the installation of desktop applications (Box Drive, Box Note, etc.) per managed user?
Once this is achieved, there will be more control over which desktop applications a corporate user can install.

video thumbnail hover preview
I would like to be able to hover my mouse over a thumbnail of a video and preview frames from it when I move my cursor left or right. Just like in Adobe Premiere Media Browser. It would make it easier to parse through footage faster without downloading or playing the video.

Add file path to macOS Box Drive search function
Since macOS Finder will not search Box Drive by filename correctly, the only real way to search for files is using Box Drives built-in search function. This will successfully find a file, but it does not show you the path in the folder tree. Could you please add the containing folder and path in the search results box? Ideally the user would also be able to open a finder window directly to that containing folder directly from a click in the search results box.
Thanks!

Change Box Drive Storage Location
I want to be able to move the storage location of Box Drive to something other than the C drive. The space is limiting. Most days accessing data from Box is not an issue but on days the internet goes down at the office or there is a power outage all work comes to a halt without access to files. I can't make all of my files available offline with Box Drive storing to the C drive. It would be nice to be able to have all of my files available in case of unforeseen circumstances. I would also be…

Allow System Administrators to download pkgs/msi's for all OS without being redirected on your site.
Hello!
I am unable to download the regular box drive pkg on my m1 mac. I am a system administrator who needs to download all pkgs/msi in order to support the business. I shouldn't have to use an intel based m1 mac just to download a pkg to upload to jamf.https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696254-Large-Scale-Deployments-Box-Drive
My suggestion would be to put direct links to the intel mac pkg on this page and the m1 pkg as well.
