"Public" shared link permission to be greyed out on some folder
User wants the "Public" shared link permission to be greyed out on some folder.

Deleting all active shared links in bulk
I want to delete all the active shared links within our Company but the only way to do this is sending a report to each user for them to do themselves. As admin I would like to be able to do this every for example 3 months. This would help keep information secure by not having lots of shared links that have been forgotten about active,

Ability to retroactively change expiration date on externally collab'd shared links and collaborators
In summary, the limitation appears with both External Shared Links and External Collaboration outside the organization.
Setting an expiration is helpful going forward, but still leaves us in a difficult situation on how to handle folders using this functionalities currently.

History of recently shared files and collaborators
History of recently shared files and collaborators. Similar to the ‘Recents’ or ‘Notifications’, it’d be very useful to see a history (even if limited) of files that I shared with other team members.

Keyboard Shortcuts - Allow Shift+S to Open Shared Link Modal for Current Folder
REQUEST: Hitting Shift+S should open the Shared Link pop-up for the current folder when no items are selected.

Box Sign capability for Enterprises with restrictive shared link policy
We are not able to initiate a signing request using existing content from our Box instance however, we can by choosing and uploading a file from our file system. Support is telling me that our organization's shared link setting of "Shared links can be accessed by: people in your company and people in this folder only" is causing this behavior and that Box Sign will not work unless we change it to "People with this link" Can the capability to use Box Sign with our current settings be enabled?

Modify shared link settings on multiple files/folders at once.
E.g., if I want to remove sharing from all of the items I found in my search results (above) then I multi-select and adjust sharing.

The ability to name the title of a collection
I have a number of folders that were invited by external users (grey folders) and those folders are typically named such as "shared folder" and it is often difficult to identify which organization I am invited by. So I would like to organize those folders by naming when collection.
1 voteIf the request is to rename folder names on folders that are owned by an external party, we are currently unable to support this.

Automated Folder Actions
Under Folder Settings -> Automated Actions, the "Unshare this folder on a specific date" option is a little confusing/misleading as it does not indicate that this is only for folders with a Shared Link enabled, and has nothing to do with removing/unsharing collaborations. Recommend the language be updated in this setting, instead of saying "Folder must be shared first" to "Shared Link must be enabled first"

Groups exportable Report needed
I think every organization's admin could use a quick User Groups report. Essentially it would look like the Groups page, with the addition of Shared Folders and names of members.
Columns:
Group Name
Created Date
Number of Members
Group's Admins
Group Members (Names)
Group Description

Prevent the easy deletion of root level folders
We accidentally deleted a root level folder for millions of folders.
This may be done by locking the folder, where it could allow users to create/edit/delete the contents within the folder, but not allowing the locked folder itself to be rename/moved/deleted.
This may also help Box Sync (and possibly Box Drive) users, as many Box Sync users often delete the top level folders by accident.

Shared link - colour code the link icon to advise who it is shared with Public, invited only etc
Currently if a file or folder has shared link enabled it, it places a blue symbol between the file name and last updated date. You have 2 options to see what the shared link is enabled as either by clicking onto the link symbol and it shows the properties of the enabled link or highlighting the folder/file and looking at details on the right hand side.
It would be better if the symbol was perhaps a different colour to show it was the different status e.g blue -invited only - green - people in your company - red -public

Ability to re-arrange All Files page on Drive, including external folders, for organizational purposes.
We would like to be able to move non-owned and external folders around for organizational purposes on their private Drive, without impacting the actual external/owner of the folder. For example: Company X shared Folder A with me at Company Y. I would like to move Folder A to my Company X folder in Drive so it's not clogging my All Files page (without this impacting Company X's folder).
9 votesThanks for the suggestion! We’re looking at ways to improve content sprawl in the future on Box Drive. We’ll consider your suggestion, along with other options, to help solve this problem.

Prevent moving sub-folders
Create a folder permission setting where collaborators can edit a file but not move the sub-folder where the file resides.
