Improve the Level of Fidelity of Text Files Preview in Box's Web App
Can Box please improve the level of fidelity of text files preview in Box's Web App? We have reports that are generated as text files, and these reports are formatted (with spaces) so the information is readable and consistent. Currently, our users have kept providing us with feed back that they are having a hard time using Box's file preview when looking at these reports because Box file preview does not keep the format they have, and as result these reports look messy and sometimes borderline unreadable. Most of our users just have opted to download these reports to open them in a text editor, reducing efficiency and creating an overall negative user experience for them.

<Regarding the watermarking feature for BoxNote, video and audio files
We are aware that Box Notes, video, audio, Flash, .msi, .exe, .zip, and 3D files will not be available when using the digital watermarking feature.
Currently, sensitive content is stored in a folder with a watermark applied, and users with previewer privileges are invited to view only. However, I am aware of the specification that if you create a BoxNote in a folder with watermark applied, it cannot be displayed in the Previewer.
Since BoxNote is a Box product and a frequently used feature, we would like to ask for immediate support for watermarking from a security perspective.
There are many opportunities to share video and audio files in a university organization, and there are many needs to use digital watermarking from a security perspective.＜BoxNote、動画ファイル、音声ファイルの電子透かし機能について＞
電子透かし機能を利用すると、Box Notes、ビデオ、オーディオ、Flash、.msi、.exe、.zip、および3Dファイルが利用できなくなると認識しております。
現在、機密性の高いコンテンツは電子透かしを適用したフォルダへ格納し、プレビューア権限を付与し閲覧のみ許可したユーザーを招待していますが、電子透かしを適用したフォルダ内でBoxNotesを作成すると、プレビューアでは表示自体が出来ない仕様であると認識しております。
BoxNoteについてはBox社製品でもあり、利用頻度の高い機能になりますので、セキュリティの観点から至急電子透かしのサポートをお願いします。
大学組織において動画や音声ファイルを共有する機会が多く、セキュリティの観点からも電子透かしを利用したいニーズは多くございますので、併せてサポートをお願いいたします。<Regarding the watermarking feature for BoxNote, video and audio files

About BoxSign completion email
The email sent when BoxSign is completed includes the text "Recipients of this email can view and sign documents on your behalf." , so you can view it but not sign it. I would like you to correct this as it is inappropriate as a text for a completion email and may cause misunderstanding.

Additional Information BoxShield Anomalous Download Alerts

Display settings for classification labels
We would like to be able to temporarily not display (not disclose) classification labels within a tenant after they are created, but in that case, we need to delete all classification label settings, and it is time-consuming to set them each time, so we would like to be able to select whether to show or hide them.

Relaxed limit on the number of contents linked to Teams
The limit of 1,000,000 items per owner is quickly exceeded by companies with tens of thousands of users. Therefore, we would like the upper limit of the number of contents for folders linked to Teams to be raised, or for owners and folders to be divided automatically so that the 1,000,000 item limit is not violated.

Draft (Signer) - Save and Finish later option for signers / preserve information provided by signers without completing the request
Signers have requested a "Save and Finish Later" option, so they can partially fill out and save it, close and come back later to continue filling out where they left off. This is a feature docusign has and would be great to have on Box sign as well.

Accurate File Count - Script Automation or Access
As I've discussed with the BOX support team, BOX web interface does not display an accurate count of files. We upload thousands of files per day and when the count of files displayed by BOX is not accurate, we assume there was a network glitch and attempt to re-upload the thousands of files which results in unnecessary network bandwidth and computational resources.
The BOX support team has access to a script they run to fix errors in the file count. Until the file count is accurately displayed in the web interface, it would be nice if BOX would automatically run this script or provide the script for Users to be able to run after they performed an upload. The automated execution of the script could be run as a last step of a folder upload or it could be scheduled to run 1 or 2 times per day as in a cron job. Ultimately the file count must be accurate for us to prevent unnecessary work to identify if all files were successfully received by BOX.
We also have API access to our BOX account, so as a last resort, giving us the ability to run the script once we finished uploading thousands of files would be an acceptable solution until the problem is fixed by BOX.

Box File Request - Limit number of files and/or file type for upload zones
When creating a file request for a folder, we would like to have the ability to limit the number of files able to be uploaded in an upload zone from the standard 500 uploads. It would also be ideal to limit the type of files that are able to be uploaded. For example, if we wanted a customer to upload document x in pdf format, we could use these limitations to ensure they upload in the correct format and all in one file, instead of uploading 20/30 png photos of the document we request. While we can provide guidelines on how/what to upload in the upload zone description, we cannot enforce these guidelines, and we can only trust the customer to upload in the correct format.

Can't filter search files marked for offline use to unmark quickly and regain HD space.
NEED ASAP: See file list of marked for "offline use" to quickly/easily unmark to regain HD space. I regularly run low on space locally. Users should have a way for Box to ID files based on cache of local machine—to "unmark all" quickly, AS WELL AS selectively with a list of files marked offline to keep any files "offline available" as needed. A MUST-HAVE feature for managing files, since the whole point of box is file storage and accessibility.

Show timestamp in "update" column in Box Web/Box for Teams
Dear Box team, it would be very helpful shwoing the timestamp of the last change of a file/folder is shown in Box Web and Box Teams Plugin instead of showing the date only (or a text).

Selective Bulk Trash Restoration
Enable the ability to further filter trash folders by folder path and date deleted and perform a bulk operation to restore affected files. Alternatively allow a view to see a full list of all deleted items, rather than the smaller pages.
The current bulk method is to restore all deleted items in trash. In organizations where the trash retention is set to never auto-delete, trashed files are maintained indefinitely which can create a very large trash folder for users. We do not want to restore files and folders for all time, just a select period.
Example:
Files below a specific folder structure Main>Tier>* (folder or file) were deleted by a user inadvertently. There were 70+ pages of files in that user's trash folder out of 164 that needed to be fully restored. The only method to do so was to highlight each page and restore page by page. Instead, filtering by the relevant criteria including deleting user, date, and folder structure affected, then bulk restoring all files identified would save significant time.Enable the ability to further filter trash folders by folder path and date deleted and perform a bulk operation to restore affected files.

Google Workspace Add-on - Remove Collaborators
When a customer uses the Google Workspace Add-on (either clicking the Box icon in Google Drive to move a Google document to Box OR using the Gmail integration) and that document has Collaborators who were added in Google, then Box will emails all those Collaborators invites to the new Box folder. Multiple customers have complained about this.
For my customer, Coursera, their main content storage solution is Google. Only the Legal Team uses Box for retention. When the Legal Team moves a file from GDrive to Box, it then sends Collaboration requests to all Google Collaborators on the file (many of whom don't have Box accounts). They moved a file over to Box on Monday, 50 people were alerted to join Box and our customer was really embarrassed. Plus their IT team assumed that our customer's email was hacked.
Customer is requesting that they have the ability to turn off the Google Collaborators and simply copy the file to Box.
