Box Drive client should fall back to attempt direct connection if proxy fails
In short, if Box Drive sees a proxy and attempts to connect via the proxy but that fails, it should fall back and attempt a direct connection before failing completely.
I experienced this on Windows. Not sure if it would apply to other OSes or not.
The specific details...
I'm in a Corporate environment with a laptop. When our laptops are on the corporate network, we do go through a proxy. But when off of the corporate network, like working at home, it doesn't use the proxy. We use an auto-config proxy .pac file to control the proxy on and off the network. This works for most things.
HOWEVER, I also have some system environment variables defined on my computer, HTTPPROXY and HTTPSPROXY, that are required to make some of our cloud development tools work, like for AWS, on our corporate network.
Box Drive apparently also sees these environment variables and attempts to use the proxy even when I'm outside our Corporate network. The environment variables appear to override the auto-config proxy .pac config. Since the corporate proxy is not accessible outside the corporate network, the Box Drive client fails to connect outside the corporate network.
If I delete the HTTPPROXY and HTTPSPROXY environment variables, then Box Drive connects correctly outside of the corporate network.
There may be other solutions too, but the first thing I thought of was that if a proxy connection fails, fall back to attempt a direct connection.

It would be great if I could mark a folder to become a zip file. And the work of creating said zip file happens on your end.
It would be great if I could mark a folder to become a zip file. And the work of creating said zip file happens on your end. This is with the thought that very large folders that have tens of thousands of items are easier to download, or share.

Forensic watermarketing
Teams with highly sensitive embargoed (pre-release) assets really needs this in order to track exactly who leaked sensitive data without the leaker knowing they're being tracked (e.g. the blue is a slightly different blue for everyone who downloads, or the text is a slightly different gray for everyone who downloads).

Ability to upvote or interact with content in Box with Emojis, similar to what you can do in Slack
This is especially important if you want to have a large vote on content in Box (e.g. Box Hackathon) without massively blasting everybody with notifications.

Render InDesign files previews with high quality
When Box creates a preview of Indesign .indd files, placed images are shown in low quality only. This prevents to run correction and approval processes with customers as some image formats aren't rendered at all (white images area), especially images with transparencies and vector images like .ai, .eps, but also .psd.
We are an ad agency and we depend on properly rendered previews.
Is there a way to render the previews in correct quality and resolution without beeing forced to create a PDF instead for approval?i can see two options:
1) create the preview with InDesign server. In this case the renderer would need to run in the logged in user context in order to access the linked images in the Box file system
2) provide an add-in for Indesign which automatically creates a preview on the client computer during the file save process which would be used as a Box preview. This would also solve the issue if custom fonts are used which are not installed on the Box platform.When Box creates a preview of Indesign .indd files, placed images are shown in low quality only.

I would like to restrict certain people/groups from accessing version history.
I would like the ability to limit who can access version history. When interacting with external collaborators, it would be nice to limit them from seeing version history, and only allow them to see the most recent version.

Improving metadata input experience from file request links
The operability of the metadata amount and date input fields should be improved.
Currently, after entering a numeric value, the input value changes unless the user selects a blank space on the screen or moves to the next item, which does not seem to be a common operability.
For example, entering 1000 in the metadata amount field from the request link and then entering the next item without selecting a blank space on the screen or moving to the next item will cause the amount value to change to 999.4 votes -
Continuous Capture with Box for EMM
Please improve Capture Mode of EMM.
Comparing Capture Mode of Box for EMM with Capture for EMM,
the probability the photo data becomes holding status is seriously high.
When it happens, saving data is so tough that the users have to avoid continuous shooting.
We did not have this experience when with Capture fo EMM.1 vote -
Allows Admins to block new users from being created using unverified email Domain
Some organizations wish to have the ability to prevent any account from being created with an email address belonging to an email domain that is not listed in the Verified Domains list in the Box Admin Console. There should be a setting either in Security or Custom Setup that can be enabled so that all admins are unable to add these types of users. In large organizations that leverage automations and integrations via SSO and security groups to push users to Box, there should be a way to have more granular control on the users that are provisioned access based on their email domain

When importing documents they should keep the date of the document, NOT the date they were uploaded.
When all my documents and files were imported into Box back in the beginning, they all got the same date. That has been horrible to work with. Many documents have similar names but I could always look at the date and know that the more recent one was probably the one I was looking for. But now, I have to look through each document to see if it is the one I want.
Of course, once I have worked on it, it now has today's date and I can tell my newer documents. But now, even after being on Box for 4-5 years I am constantly frustrated by not know the real date of a document created prior to that.
And, today, I uploaded a new file with a mixture of new and old documents, but now they all have the same date and it is torture to try and figure out which is the most recent.
You really need to show the DOCUMENT DATE, not the UPLOAD DATE.
Thanks.

Classification labels are also applied to partial matches for words set in "Custom Term"

Classification labels are assigned only when an exact match is registered in the file for the file condition "custom term" in the Management Console > Classification > Classification Policy.
If you want to assign a classification label to a partially matched term, you need to register all the terms in the "custom term".
To save time and effort in registering, please improve the system so that classification labels are assigned even when partially matching words are found in the file.＜Japanese＞

Report status window shows columns in fixed column width which makes data unreadible
Current view of reports status shows 5 columns in fixed width which makes for instance the date and time stamp unreadable. It would be really helpful if you could adjust the column width like in Microsoft Excel to make the data readable, there's a lot of unused white space at the right side that could be better utilized.

Ability to configure date format in the email notifications
Email notification date – The request is for the date format of this to be set by Admins for an ‘Organisation’ . The current email default is using dd/mm/yyyy which does not help North American users. To get a more universal date it would be helpful to for admins to be able to set another format like dd/mmm/yyyy
