Microsoft Office 365 Germany cannot connect with Box .
Office 365 Germany is a european office product for customers who wish to store their data in europe only. When I want to connect that service to Box, I get an error message.
I have contacted Microsoft on how to connect Office 365 Germany with Box. They supplied me with a website where they explain which endpoints Office 365 Germany uses. If Box uses the same endpoints, we could connect the two services.

Email to Box Change Disappointing
Box decided to remove email to folder options for less than business users, with supposed preservation of existing email to folder set ups. That didn't work. The existing email to folder broke, one of our critical business processes was subsequently broken.
1) I did not receive notice of this change
2) I can't even view what the existing email to folder email address is.
3) It's a poor move to remove a feature an existing customer has access to. Should have been grandfathered in.1 vote -
Ability to disable the download button on the root folder of my main shared folder
I am setting up a folder in my account as an external-facing folder of assets. This will be a public folder that anyone can access with the proper link. Currently, I'm in trial of Box and noticed that the "Download" button appears at the root folder of this shared asset folder. I want people to be able to download assets as they wish, but don't want the download button to be at the root folder. I can honestly see myself getting a lot of feedback from people who accidentally download several TB of assets, instead of the individual files they…

add dynamically a folder to a group
When a structure of folders is created as a template, it would be cool when this template is copied and if a at least one group is affected to automatically add this new folder to the group.
Now you have to go to the admin console to manually add it and it's wasted time and not very efficient. Maybe also get the possibility to do it through relay.1 vote -
Drive: Available offline to specific folders and not enterprise wide
We would like to allow available offline for user drives only or work spaces. But network shares which is considerable larger shouldn't have this option. So If we allow admins the ability to choose what folders can be marked for offline instead of enterprise wide.

Ability to nest skill card metadata in the entries of skill cards
lets say I've created a custom skill that runs a transcription on a dropped audio or video file, identifying speakers a prepending the speaker title to each segment of continuously spoken text. If I could nest skill cards, I could run sentiment analysis on each segment and generate a skill card representing that (as a timeline card) while also cross linking any other areas of the file which had the same sentiment rating (using the provided 'appears').
This is just one example, but the flexibility would would lend its self to many more complicated implementations, possibly negating the need for…

Include a Disable Preview Option
I've been using BOX for years and the only complaint is from my clients who download from my shared links. Almost 90% of users complain that they get the message
"We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported."I understand from your viewpoint but from our viewpoint, we dont require such preview because our files are .zip, .rar, .7z, etc.
So PLEASE enable some option where I can enable or disable the auto-preview.
Remember, you guys are a cloud storage 1st solution. My clients should be able to download anything as simply as possible without getting confused about some…4 votes -

Add Make Available Offline control to Explorer/Finder toolbar
We are pushing our users to start using Drive instead of Sync. Our helpdesk team brought up that they are concerned that the current UI for MFOing content (right click file, click “Make Available Offline”) is not intuitive for end users. They are requesting a button for “MFO“ to be surfaced on the top toolbar of the Windows Explorer window when an item is selected, so that the option is visible without having to right click the item.

Show all groups in Content Manager
We'd like to target all groups in content manager in the admin console. Search results currently shows 1st 10,000 groups, but does not show groups created after the 10,000th group. We would like all of our groups to be shown in the content manager.

Restrict Classification edits to Governance menu
A admin can access the Classification template in the Metadata page and delete values of classification. That makes errors. Classification should be only accessible via the Governance menu and not via the Metadata menu.
3 votesThank you for the feedback. This specific use-case isn’t planned at the moment.

Add Share overview
Currently our end user do not know what they have shared. It would be great everyone has a tab showing them which folders and files they have shared and how it was shared. (incl expiration). That will give them an overview they can go through to see if folders are still require to be shared.

Remove / Hide avatars when editing a box note
When editing a Box Note, there is an avatar with my initials that jumps around to wherever my cursor is. I find it very distracting and quite annoying. I can't think of any possible benefit to having this bouncing ball showing me that I'm editing the note. I kind of already know that. If others are editing the same note, it shows that, too. Maybe that's of some limited use, although I don't know what I'd do with that information, other than once again be distracted from what I'm trying to do. So anyway, it'd be great if there were…

Share this Folder
On a shared (collaborated) folder ensure that the "Share this Folder" option is removed from all external collaborators as testing has shown that it is possible for an external collaborator (even with viewer permissions) to enable sharing and get a copy of the shared link albeit the link defaults to “internal access” only.
3 votesThanks for the feedback. Per our collaborator permission guidelines, Viewer permissions are able to see and send view-only shared links — however they cannot invite collaborators or modify sharing permissions.

We need a way to administratively remove ALL instances of the per-user installs
We need a way to administratively remove ALL instances of the per-user installs, without resorting to the a VBS login script. In many cases, there are profiles on machines for users that no longer exist, they won’t ever log in to run the per-user removal script.

Folder Activation on a future date
Folder activation on Set future date.
We use Box.com to share fiiles/folders with our internal team and with some external partners, and there is a way to make folders delete on a specified date so the content is no longer available... however, it would be helpful to be able to build a folder that is hidden from site and then set a date on when it becomes active and can be viewed. This would be very helpful for our team as we have content/information that we want to be available on a specific date but making sure someone loads it…
