View total Folder size in web app without requiring an Admin run a report.
Users and Content managers require the ability to see the size of a folder they have access permissions to without having to reach out to an admin and run a report.
We are aware of the admins being able to run reports, as well as users being able to see the individual file sizes, but when multiple files need to be downloaded or handled via folder box user needs to contact us on the admin side to do any cursory decision making or review hundred and sometimes thousands of files individually just to simply get a total file size of a folder they have edit or own permissions to.

Vision Pro
Boxer posting on behalf of a customer:
Box for Apple Vision Pro is not using the same API as the iPad app and doesn't show up in the 'Files' browser.
Because of this oversight none of the Apple apps can use files in the box browser the way they do on iPadOS. No collaboration or work on files in box is possible.
Not sure why you would bother making a Vision Pro app, is it only to view files?
Please pull the Vision Pro app from the store and allow us to use the iPadOS app on apple vision. I'm really surprised you don't have numbers, pages, keynote integration. The iPadOS app would have been a better choice since it would have integrated with these files.

Using Box Sign for forms
It would be helpful to leverage Box Sign to fill out forms. Currently, Box Sign does not allow for the Sign process to proceed unless a signature field is dropped into the document. We have a scenario where we wanted to have someone fill out text fields with various information as a step before a signature is placed. Perhaps a separate feature called Box Forms which allows those fields to be dropped in and populated onto a document before it gets to Sign?

Currently the Adobe Sign integration with Box produces multiple files for each stage of the sign process instead of saving 1 single file
Currently the Adobe Sign integration produces multiple files for each stage of the sign process (e.g. sent, in-progress, complete). It would be great if those files could be versions of a single file.

Box Drive Apple Finder notification and not just small amber sign for sync failure.
Users are regularly experiencing issues with multiple file not syncing (incorrect naming or spaces etc) but the only notification to them is a small amber sign on the files syncing which they miss. Please can we have a larger warning in Apples notifications or Finder window similar to a local server error?

Remove the "Restore All" from the users Trash page.
With governance/retention set to indefinite, users trash folder grows larger every day. Instead of having a "restore all" button, Box should change it to a "Restore Item" button. There are more cases where that would be more beneficial than a "Restore All" button
One of my customers hit a "Restore All" button when they were trying to restore a single file, and it put back thousands of items into Box that had been deleted over the past several years. It created an IT nightmare, and they had to use reports to go delete everything that had restored.
Adding a "restore item" instead of "restore all" button will allow users to have more control over the content they wish to have within their Box environment.

Prepare documents for signature within the embedded signing experience
My prospect is a software company for freight, shipping & analytics looking to revamp their doc management and eSign process. They have a high volume of docs, like rate confirmations letters, that need to be sent from brokers to carriers for signature. We have run into a technical gap that Box Platform + Box Sign do not have an API for doc prep in an iFrame. Doc Prep URL as it stands today cannot be embedded. Prospect does not want brokers to go outside of portal to a Box URL window.

Password reset is so laborioius
You need to vastly improve the password reset experience. It takes me several minutes to set up a new password and I have to do this on multiple computers. For one thing, DON'T expire passwords. It doesn't improve security at all. Second, if you have to expire them, send me a warning a few days ahead of time. Don't just shut down my Box drive app. Third, I should be able to log in with my old PW and just reset there, maybe with a 2nd factor authentication, like a text message. Finally, the PW rules are too narrow. If I want a really long PW, that should be allowed. Please fix these things. It's REALLY annoying and I dread having to do this every 3 months. Thank you.

19 votesWe have raised our file size limit to 500GB for customers with the Enterprise Advanced plan, and are evaluating further enhancements in the future, but we do not have any changes planned in our near term roadmap at this time.

When Box for Microsoft Office co-editing is enabled, microsoft office files cannot be edited in Box Edit.
However, there are use cases where we may not want to co-edit.

People who reassign should still receive emails about that document
My workflow requires me to send documents on to agents, who review documents before sending on to their clients to sign (via 'reassign').
After reassigning, the agent no longer receives information about the document. This seems counterintuitive, and isn't in line with other online document signature services. I can't think of a reason why you would need to be removed from the email chain like this. If you no longer need to know about the document, you can simply ignore the final email about its completion, but if you do, currently you would have to rely on someone still in the chain to email it to you somehow, by downloading/forwarding, etc.
If there's a legitimate reason to remove yourself from the chain like this, it should be an option at the point of 'reassign' - a checkbox to 'Stop receiving emails regarding this document' or similar, and the default should be to stay in the chain.
Thanks,

User Interface Experience in Reporting.
- When generating a report through Admin Console, you have to manually search for the folder list and often get too many queries and takes too long. It would be a better experience to be prompted with the root directory that you can just drill down to which folder you want to report on in addition to the search functionality.
- When creating a scheduled report, the interface is a bit confusing because you have to hit Schedule Report, then hit schedule again, this should be a once step process and is confusing to most users, additionally the schedule button have a gray outline and seems it's a non-functioning button, at the very least, it should be a blue outline like the other buttons.
