Option to overwrite metadata values when moving file
We would like the option for a metadata attribute to be overwritten automatically when moved to a folder with cascading metadata enabled for the same metadata template.
Here's our use case:
Some of our organization content currently sits in user folders. People accessing that content have no way of knowing where it sits, and therefore can't take action to move it to the desired location. Applying a metadata template indicating if content sits within a user or an organizational folder would be a great way to make this visible to users. With the current behavior, we can't do that, as the metadata value would not be modified when the content gets moved (unless we take the one-time action to overwrite, which is not practical in our case)We would like the option for a metadata attribute to be overwritten automatically when moved to a folder with cascading metadata enabled for the same metadata template.

Automatic validation of Box Folder and File access
At IBM we have various tools that have automated validations, where people who have access to the tool are notified to ensure that they have a continued business need to access the tool. At times the manager is also copied on the email.
I would like to see Box for IBM implement something for us to manage Box Folders and Files which people have access to IBM Confidential Information be more protected on a regular basis.
Thank you!

Fix custom logo resolution & display issues
Presently there are two main issues that Box needs to fix with the way it displays custom company logos:
Custom logos display at an extremely low resolution. It's 2023 and our company's logo looks blurry and very bad on most screens. Logos used in the Box Sign branding are crisp and high resolution and look great. This is not the case for logos used within the standard Box file management platform though. Please fix this.
Right now Box has the option to upload 2 different versions of your company logo. One for use on a white background and one for use on your 'brand color' background. This is great, but due to a bug I have been reporting for years, Box in certain cases will display the wrong logo version. For example, on a shared public link to a file (not a folder), it has a white banner at the top of the screen and it displays the "logo for use on brand color" instead of the correct "logo for use on white." This is just a bug that needs to be fixed.
In short, please fix the way that custom company logos display in Box. Our clients are interacting with our files and it is important that our brand is represented in a way that looks professional and displays our logo correctly.

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.

Enhance error messages when storage exceeded to identify which account is over storage
When a user uploads an item to a folder that would exceed the quota, it says "Account storage limit reached." This is misleading if the folder is owned by another user. Users ask for more quota, but it's a different account that has the problem. Please identify the folder owner of the folder that's over quota in the error message.
This applies both to Web UI and Box Drive error messages.

Notify users before account becomes inactive
Notify users before account becomes inactive.

Enabling external links/references in excel workbooks
In Excel any external references (e.g. in macros or other workbooks) are disabled, for data driven companies who use excel heavily it would be ideal to have these functions available in box drive. Using Box online can be limiting.

Support for Context Menu Actions on Multiple Files in Box Integrations
Dear Box Product Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I recently reached out regarding an issue I encountered while developing an integration for Box, specifically related to context menu actions on multiple files. Upon discussing the matter with your developer advocate, I was informed that the behavior I observed, where context menu options are not available for multiple file selections, is by design.
While I understand that there may be considerations and design decisions behind this behavior, I would like to provide feedback from a developer's perspective. It would greatly enhance the flexibility and usability of Box integrations if there were an option for developers to declare whether their integration supports actions on multiple files. Additionally, providing support for receiving a list of file IDs or triggering multiple requests could streamline workflows and improve the overall user experience.
As a developer working with Box's platform, I believe that offering such functionality would open up new possibilities for creating more efficient and powerful integrations. This feedback is based on my own experience and the needs of developers who rely on Box's platform to build custom solutions for their organizations and clients.
I appreciate the opportunity to share this feedback with you, and I trust that it will be considered as you continue to evolve and improve the Box platform. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to seeing how Box integrates user feedback into future updates and enhancements.
Best regards,

Add the ability to fix scrollbars in tables
We make great use of the table feature of Box Notes and often create tables with a huge number of columns.
A while ago the UI was changed and scrollbars became available.
However, the longer the table is, the longer it takes to get to the scrollbar, because the scrollbar does not appear until I get to the bottom row.
I have to go further just to find the scroll bars, and I find this operation laborious.
Therefore, we would like the scrollbar to be fixed so that it always appears at the bottom of the table currently displayed on the screen.（In Japanese/日本語）
