Universal and Individual Upload Pause and Throttle
Problem: I'm uploading a lot of relatively large files. The urgency for these is low, but it will take a long time to upload. During this time, I have smaller high priority files to send to a client for approval. However, uploading these smaller, but more important files using a different service is extremely slow. A 30 second upload becomes a 10-minute upload.
Solution: Have individualized pause buttons on each uploading item AS WELL AS a universal pause on uploads. Also, a throttle to limit it from using all of the bandwidth would be nice, too. Please also make this…

Update Box File Request with additional functionality so that it can perform as a PBC request list similar to Suralink.
Update Box File Request with additional functionality so that it can perform as a PBC request list similar to Suralink.
E.g. add more fields, enable option so the File Request does not have to all be completed all at once, enable a dashboard for sender and receiver to see completion progress on the full File Request, enable ability for creator of file request to approve items on the file request and mark them complete, enable ability for sender and receiver to edit the File Request retroactively after submissions.

File upload restriction to ensure file name matches the folder name
We would like to store files in the correct folder for each customer.
What I want to say is that we have to accurately store files entrusted to us by our clients in the proper folders. However, this is done manually by a person, so it is possible to make a mistake but we are not allowed to make mistakes.Therefore, when storing files in a folder, we would like to establish a mechanism to block attempts to store files that do not match by having the file name and folder name match.
Is this possible? If this is not possible,…1 vote -
File size limits for File Request uploads
We have tried using the File Request to encourage our supply chain to upload files directly from our filing system on Box instead of using unathorised file transfer services, however it frequently fails due to file size. I note in the FAQ that the maximum file upload size is limited by that permitted by the content submitter - it would be more useful if the file upload size was based by that permitted by our account as the organisation requesting the file. As the File Request service also doesn't permit uploading of folders, this often means our content submitters have…

Upload DICOM images via File request
I was wondering if it would be possible to send someone a file request link and have them upload with the Ambra DICOM image tool directly instead of having them first upload the files then having to convert them manually after.

Can't Use Buttons "Under" Green Update Box
Please fix this annoying issue. Currently when I upload a document or rename something, a green update box pops up at the top of my screen. When that confirmation happens, I'm not able to click on anything to the direct left or right of it (i.e. my search bar, more options sometimes, etc.) until it goes away or I specifically click the 'x'. It's like everything is "behind" the update box, and it gets a bit annoying when I'm renaming or uploading several things.
Ideally I'd like to be able to use the buttons/features to the left and right of…

Integration with Shutterfly: Ability to send photos of build progression to Shutterfly
I work for a swimming pool company. We are taking pictures as the pool is being built. Once the pool is completed, we would like to send 20 to 40 pictures, as a group, to Shutterfly to have them create a picture book for our customers.

Increase upload limit for files in a folder
For people like myself who have a large number of files that need to be categorized in appropriate folders it is imparative that I make uploading easy for my team members.
Box only allows 500 files per folder, which I understand is to prevent many files being lost at the same time, which I am thankful for.
BUT....
It would be great that during the upload process that box.com automatically created another folder to accommodate any files over the 500 mark.Don't you think?

Dynamic File Requests
The ability to utilize File Request to send dynamic file requests. We often request multiple files from our clients. These requests can be 25+ items. It would be beneficial to send a list of required information where the client (external user) could could upload the requested file and the file would retain the name of the item on the original list.
The ability for external users (those with the file request) to see what items on the request list have been fulfilled and which items are still outstanding would be ideal.
It would also be extremely helpful to be able…

Max_Upload_Size Field Needs a Box CLI Switch for User Record Updating
Each user now has the maxuploadsize field in their user record, which designates the largest single file size that a user can upload. This setting can be viewed in the user's profile in the WebUI and is set as an Enterprise level setting.
Just as the user's spaceamount (their quota) can be set via the Box CLI, using the --disk-space switch when updating a user's record, there is a need to be able to access a switch to set maxupload_size when updating individual user records via the Box CLI.

Get rid of the green 'refresh' bar when uploading a new document
Give the user access to disable the green 'refresh' pop-up bar. It’s annoying and requires to be click before you can move on. I challenge your staff to spend a day working in Box, loading and uploading docs – you’ll get tired of it VERY quickly.
Don’t need more clicks in the workflow!

More specific error messages when uploads fail
When manually uploading a new version of a file, I received a "Some Uploads Fail" message. Only later did I see it was because there was another file of the same name in the folder. The error message should be more specific to this problem.
