  1. Box Mobile - Hyperlink files embedded within Excel

    While opening linked files within an excel file on the Box mobile application.

    This is happening due to the current preview architecture for excel files and nested/linked files within the Box application. Although you can 'see' the desired file visible on the screen, within your current workflow, the Box app only recognizes the original file as being 'opened' which is why the original files are being saved and not the file open currently.

    Thanks

  2. version for multiple files

    return version to a date of all file in a folder, or all selected files.
    Today is possible to do this only if I open each file and select version, with a lot of clicks

  3. Create a view of files or folders with unsupported names

    Currently: If a file has an unsupported name, it will be listed in Box Drive or Box Sync without their path name. Users will have to manually search for the file which is not feasible if they have thousands of files with unsupported names.

    Desired: Create a view of files or folders with unsupported search names in the Box web app to make it easy to rename and removes the process of having to manually search for them.

    Nice to Have: Have a button, when clicked, expands to reveal the full path of files or folders with unsupported names

  4. Viewers of watermarked files can download file before previewing it

    Owner of folder wants to have users be able to mass download files within watermarked folder. In the current way, user has to preview each file individually before seeing option to download.

  6. make linked files visible in Finder on desktop

    Linked files are only visible in the web version of Box, and not visible on the desktop with Box Drive. This defeats the purpose of having linked files since the majority of users are accessing Box through Box Drive on their desktop. Please update!!!

  8. Box Drive support for bookmarks to files and folders

    Box Web allows you to paste a link to a file or folder as a bookmark to quickly jump to that location. It would be great to have this work for Box Drive as well. The main use case is that we are moving from traditional Windows file shares to Box Drive. The experience is similar in that the files and folders are mapped in a hierarchical structure. The issue we are having is that some departments rely on Windows shortcuts to jump from one location to another in the shared drive.

    The bookmark functionality seems to be able to…

  9. Download more than 10,000 files in a single zip

    Would it be possible to download more than 10,000 files in a single zip download? We have a use case where we need to download 30,000 files in a single zip.

  11. I want to set conditions for files in File Request

    I want to limit the types of files that can be received by checking file extensions (Word, Excel, Power Point, PDF, image, video, audio files, etc.)
    I want to be able to set a single file size limit.

    Implementing this function improves security.

    【ファイルリクエストでファイルに条件の設定をしたい】

    ファイルの拡張子(Word, Excel ,Power Point , PDF、画像、ビデオ、オーディオファイル等)のチェックを付けられるようにして受け取れるファイル種別を制限したい
    単一ファイルサイズの上限の設定をできるようにしたい。

    この機能を実現することでセキュリティ面が向上します。

  12. Ability to copy/duplicate files

    My local City sends out links to files that expire in 30 days or so.
    Currently I download those files, then upload them back to box,net.

    The "copy" feature for such links seems to copy the links, not create a safe local copy of the data.

  13. Show file/metadata info from Photoshop image files

    Photographers submit their images to our Box account for use in our publications. The industry standard is for professional photographers to add metadata like the photo credit and caption to each photo using the "File Info" tool in Photoshop. Unfortunately, after doing so and then uploading the images to Box, the metadata added in Photoshop is not visible in Box's metadata section. Please consider exposing this info under "details" or "metadata."

    Extra credit: Allow us to edit that same metadata in Box. Doing so would allow the correct credit and caption info to flow into our InDesign layouts. Saving lots…

    While we recognize the importance of this feature, it is not something we plan to introduce in the near term. We will certainly keep this in mind for future roadmap inclusion and we will keep the status of this request updated to accurately reflect our current position.

  15. File Type Support: .nd Files

    Have .nd file types supported on the Box Sync product. We use .nd files not for QuickBooks files, but for models we build. We would like there to be an option to upload these types of files through the sync interface.

  16. Lock folder order in All Files

    Prologis would like to be able to create a static folder view in All Files. Defaulting to most recently viewed makes it difficult to find things. It would also be helpful if the file names were larger.

  18. Box drive - DIsk full because of "offline files"

    The hard drive of my computer is full (or a small free space available) because Box Drive is using a large part of the free space to load files that I don't want to see, they should stay in the cloud. I want to see on my computer only the files that are configured for "Off Line" access. Today there are more than 50 Gbytes on my computer that are useless.
    With box sync, I didn't get this issue, it's a new problem specific to box drive.
    It's a critical issue, my computer is running slowly because there is only…

  19. Ability to opt-out from Group collaboration or hide group collaborated folders under All Files.

    If collaborated as Group, the folder appears under All Files whether the user want to see it or not.

    After a while, all of these folders would show up under the user's All Files and would be very hard to manage.

    Thus, ability to opt-out from group collaboration or ability to "hide" folders under All Files is needed.

  20. User activity report - for file move/ copy event, display full path to show where the files are originated from

    For file move/ copy activity on User Activity report. "Detail" tab would show the name of the parent folder on where the file is from. "Parent Folder" tab would show the full path of destination.

    If parent folder could also display in full path, intuitively it is easier for the admin to understand where the files are moved from and to.
