Show classification of files in Box Drive
We use Classifications to indicate restrictions on who a file can be shared with, e.g. confidential information supplied by third party that cannot be shared with other parties involved in a project. While classification is displayed within Box, there is no indication of the restriction if the file is accessed through Box Drive which could lead to unauthorized disclosure.
38 votesThank you for the suggestion. We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap. We will place this in our backlog as we continue evaluating ideas to improve Box Drive.
Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

Relay Workflow to follow messages/ notifications to activities
It would be super helpful if you could use Box Relay to let a notification follow an activity. I know that you can generate tasks, but in that case I just want to let a certain group of users know that there is new content in a folder. A notification would be the best way to do this.

Need to be able to view group members before adding to a folder
Would be great to be able to see members of a group prior to adding them to a folder. At the moment, even those groups which are listed as being viewable by anyone in the company can't be viewed until AFTER they are added to a folder, unless someone is a group admin. It means that either someone has to contact an admin to be sure they have the right group, or they have to add the group and then check right away to make sure they added the right one.

open synched folder from web
When I work in windows folder/file browser on my PC, I can easily right-click a folder and select to "view on box.com". I would like to be able to go the other way.
* Couldn't there be a function when right-clicking a folder on box.com, that takes me to the synched folder on the PC I work from?
* Or at least "copy link on the PC I work from", so I could paste it into the windows folder/file browser on my PC?

Page number Display
Please add the page number display when you open folders. Current version of Box removed the page number and rather lists all the files within that folder, or at least is should. We now see that if a folder has hundreds of files, not all files are displayed when you scroll to the end. For example. If selecting a folder containing all company names starting with the letter S. It may only go to files starting with SNA and end there. In this case you have to revert to using the search within the folder to locate files starting with…

I want you to change the title of the email notification when you add an item to the folder.
"Example"
TEST A
┗ Test b
┗ Notification folder ← Notification settingsIf you set the folder notification as above,
When you upload a new item to the Notification folder, you will receive a notification with the email title "Added to TEST A".
"It's easier to understand the email title that the item has been added to the Notification folder, so I'd like to change the function.2 votes -
Admin account to not consume a license
At present, an admin user consumes a paid-for subscription which is a waste of a subscription/money.
As an admin, I just perform admin tasks and don't actually use the service to share files.
Would it be possible to have an admin account which can only perform admin duties to ensure paid-for subscriptions are used by actual users?

Upgrade from reCAPTCHA v2 to reCAPTCHA v3
The pictures shown in reCAPTCHA v2 like traffic lights and crosswalks are vague, leading many users to fail to log in.
As a result they would like Box to use reCAPTCHA v3 instead.5 votes -
more than one collection expanded at a time
Would love to leave more than one collection expanded at a time
1 voteThank you for your feedback. Allowing more than one collection expanded in the left sidebar might result in negative performance impact, so we have decided to limit it to one collection at a time. As we continue to make improvements to our systems, we will keep this request in mind.

Notification on task assignment not supported in API
Currently there is no option to send a user an email notification when they are assigned a task via API. This is an unexpected gap, as an email will be sent when the task is assigned manually in the UI, and there are few indications that the same will not be true for programmatically assigned tasks.

Box Task Center notification pop-up
Popup assigned tasks when users visit "All Files" page. Currently Box Task Center shows only number. To make it possible for a user to surely notice, popup is better.

Sync my desktop files on a Mac to Box
Feature suggestion: if there's any way for us to sync my desktop files on a Mac to Box - that would be HUGE for our end users. Similar to how Macs work today where content on desktop is saved to iCloud - work with Apple so that Box can be used as the content storage area of choice instead.

Provide direct links for files listed in Problem Items window to the actual files in Box Drive.
When users have a large number of Problem Items (> 10) it can be a pain to find exactly where these Problem Items are. The search function doesn't work well for these files and you can't even copy the name of these files. A direct link to them would be most convenient.

create folder while making workflow
Allow users when they are building a relay workflow to have the ability to search through a folder structure and create a new folder when they are building a new flow.
This would eliminate the issue of users having to have a predefined folder structure before making the workflow and make it significantly easier to use.
