  2. "Open With" UI Element Documentation is broken - does the feature work?

    Does the "Box Content Open With" feature work for anyone?

    I see it as being broken in the developer documentation and I'm unable to get it working with my own app after following the documentation.

  3. Move uploaded files (via an Automation) to different folders based on the file type.

    Use case: Users could bulk upload a range of file types (docx, image pdf, audio etc) into a single folder that redirects each file based on the file type to different folders for different skills processing.
    Example: a word doc and an audio file could be uploaded to the same folder the word doc gets auto moved to a folder that triggers a skill to extract concepts however the audio file is moved to a folder that triggers a speech to text skill (the text could then be auto moved to the same folder as the word doc for concept…

  4. For the Salesforce managed package, integrate with built-in merge funcionality

    Currently, within Salesforce, if records are merged, the link to the child Box folder gets lost and orphaned. The integration should hook into this out-of-the-box functionality to maintain data integrity for Box files on the platform.

  5. Custom Applications Scroll

    At IBM we have a large number of JWT applications currently whitelisted and we receive new requests for them daily. When we want to whitelist a new application, we have to click through 9 pages of Custom Applications listed in the admin console to Enable the App Authorization.

    This makes approving 4 applications a 30 minute process because each arrow click to the nexxt page takes up to a minute to load.

    Instead of having arrows to flip between the pages of existing JWT apps, I recommend a scroll bar so we can quickly scroll to the bottom of the…

  7. Publish a changelog of Box Drive updates

    The blog is nothing close to release notes and version history. I’m looking for something more industry standard. Please put that in as a feature request. Knowing, for example when 2.0.70 and 2.1.105 were officially released (date) and the changelog (massaged for general consumption, if not raw) si what these are for and these press releases on the blog are not a replacement for technical info.

  9. Include activities & comments in the search index

    Activities and comments on the files are something very useful to collaborate on documents. It would be great if there was a way to include the content of the activities & comments in the search index.

  12. The ability to check the characters when setting/typing the password for shared link and account

    When we're entering passwords of shared links and accounts, we want to check it by seeing the actual characters.

    For example, this request has been achieved on the following page:

    https://account.box.com/signup/n/personal

    Is it possible for you to implement the same button in the account ligin page and the shared link setting window?

  13. NetSuite integrations security enhancement.

    Allow the creation of a folder in Box that is secured by box, but the record is attached to the transaction. For example, under bill payments adding a box folder that can hold the contract for that specific payment. Contracts have more confidential information that needs to be secured. Since security in NetSuite is best used as a group, not all who can see if a payment was made, should see the details of the contract. Therefore the select folder should allow more restrictive security, managed by box.

  14. ELIMINATE the display message " We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" " as it terrifies our customers

    Display message "We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported" scares our customers on the download shared link page. They think it is an ERROR and will not download the .ISO or other file that cannot be PREVIEWED. Make the message SPECIFIC to PREVIEW:
    "Preview not available for this file type, click Download to continue"
    or just
    "Preview not available for this file type"

    Saying it is UNSUPPORTED means too many bad things. If this is not fixed, we will leave BOX. Seriously.

    Interesting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

  15. Allow users to limit simultaneous uploads

    We would like to control the number of uploads that upload simultaneously (ie ability to limit to 1). The belief is that, if files are uploading 5 at a time, and they fail 80% of the way through upload, you have to start again, whereas if it was uploading 1 at a time, and worked its way through 80 percent of the queue, less files would need to be retried

  17. Combine Feed with Notifications and Recents to make one seamless experience

    If you could combine feed with notifications + recents into one screen. Our users find that they’re often switching back in forth between the screens; if you could have a screen with three columns including all of these items and have a way to sort them, scroll them – that would be one experience and save time flipping between pages.

  19. Update "Box login from..." email notification

    When I access Box from a new browser or device, I get "Box Login from...." email notification from Box.

    Within the email body, it said "You can manage your login activity list from the Security tab and your notifications from the Notifications tab of your Account Settings." but there is no "Notifications" tab under user Account settings.

    Instead there is a "Sharing" tab under which there is a section for "General Emails and Notifications". Could you please fix the wording with in the email notification body to reflect the correct tab and section. It helps the end users to get…
