Customize shared link theme and logo
As the File request link can be customized (text, colors, logo...), it would be great to customize a shared link too.
We have many companies inside our enterprise, so each company would be able to set its logo for their shared links (and not the default one of the enterprise).1 vote -
Editable shared link to take precendence over collaborator permission
Collaborator permissions currently take precedence over shared link permissions. As a result, users accessing an editable shared links can't edit a file if they have viewer permission on the folder. In our case, we have an open folder accessible to all staff as viewer with all content accessible from our intranet. We would like to be able to create editable shared link for users to contribute to selected files.

Sharing information with people outside my organization.
when a URL is shared to someone they will then have the ability to download. locking a file feature is available, unfortunately, it needs to be performed one by one. the ability to lock entire folders all at once would be very helpful.

Hide folders from Collaborators
Hello, would love to be able to hide folders (I am currently the owner) from collaborators that way as the owner I can monitor what is seen by collaborators as a whole without them seeing things change on their end.

Searching Sub-Folders
We have a user that asked the eblow question. They are referring to Box Drive folders that have been marked for offline use, as well as those in the cloud:
"I would like to see improvements in the Box Search capability within Windows Explorer. You cannot execute a search across sub folders within your Box Drive folder structure, only within the currently viewed folder. If I know what folder a file was in I have eliminated 90% of the reasons I need to search. I get the same search limitations for Cloud based folders and folders saved offline to my…

Shared links without expiration
It takes 6 clicks (unless I'm missing a faster way) to turn off the expiration for a shared link. Can it be on the first pop-up window when you enable the link!?

Allow the "User Activity" report to be run for a folder and all sub-folders & content within that folder
Today, the admin may select to run the "User Activity" report for a particular folder. When run for a particular folder, the report will only filter on the contents of the selected folder, and not the contents of subfolders within. Request that the report includes the folder and all sub-folders & contents within that folder, removing the need to run the report at the enterprise level and filtering to a particular folder path from there.

Please separate the colors of the icons displayed in folders and files.
Due to the release of Box Shield's new classification indicators, the colors of the "lock icon" and "shared link icon" displayed on folders and files are all grayed out.
In the past, the "lock icon" was red, and the "shared link icon" was blue, etc., making it easy for users to see and use.We believe this is a far cry from Box's goal of accessibility, which is "ease of use for all users."
In order to provide an easy-to-use environment for all users, please restore the icon colors to the previous specifications or color code them.(Japanese)…

Ability to prevent users from adding/deleting files and folders of a specific folder without affecting that folder's sub-folders
Example: I have a top level folder called 'Top'. Inside that folder I have two other folders 'A' and 'B'. I would like to prevent users from adding and deleting content in the 'Top' folder but still allow them to add and delete content in folders 'A' and 'B'.

Matching display with Box Notes shared link settings
If the Admin Console [Shared Link Permissions] is set to type "File: Can view and download" and type "Box Notes: Can view and edit",
Depending on where you create a Box Notes shared link, the settings and permissions displayed do not match.This is the current specification.Created a shared link from a file list: The permission "View only" is displayed because the type is "File", but it can be edited.
Creating a shared link from the Box Notes share button: The "Can edit" permission is displayed to refer to the type "Box Notes".We feel that this specification causes…

Root folders report
It would be very beneficial and time saving if there was a filter on the Box side that will give you a list of all root level folders in the entire enterprise

Revert to former UX for selecting files/folders (no more check boxes)
In order to select multiple files or folders in the Box Web App you now have to use the checkboxes which are only visible when you hover over the file/folder all the way to the right.
Previously, you could select multiple files and folders by clicking on the file or folder icon on the far left, and didn’t have to bother with checkboxes. The suggestion is to revert to the former UX for selecting files/folders

Custom Shared Link Control by User Type
Admin ability to set global shared link settings by user type - such as no ability for a managed user to set a shared link to "anyone with the link" -- but admins and/or co-admins could set a shared link to be public (in the case of surfacing documentation externally). This could look like, under "Default access for shared links" setting in Admin Console, a new dropdown to allow for an override for co-admins or above, OR the ability to add specific users to an allowlist.

Box Note "Active Shared Link" indicator on Sidebar Box
The only way currently to know if a Box Note has an Active Shared Link is to go to the folder which contains it (in the regular Box.com UI, not the Box Notes UI), and look for the "Active Shared Link" icon on the row for the .boxnote file.
I suggest adding this same icon to the sidebar box for the note in the Box Notes UI (i.e. the box you click to load the note in the main right-hand pane).

Ability to edit shared link settings on Desktop
Currently, the only way to generate a shared link on Desktop is to generate the default style link (i.e. shared only within your company).
In order to get to the share settings window dialogue, you currently need to open the file on web.
It would be great to incorporate the share window dialogue natively in PC/Mac. This is a common feature currently available on OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive.

Disabling shared links after the link is viewed
Currently there is the option have the shared link expire on a specific date. It would be beneficial to also have a shared link be disabled as soon as it is viewed. Having a link that's "one-time use only" would be ideal in various use cases like sharing sensitive information.
Having this also be the case for invited external parties would be helpful.

Make editing password protected shared links clearer
When a shared link to document or folder is already password protected, and a user wishes to change the password, the password screen should be clearer as to how this is accomplished - possibly by an additional Change button or Confirm Changes
Currently this is unclear

Move or copy to multiple folders
I would like to be able to Move or Copy a group of files to multiple folders in one click. It seemed when you added the radio buttons, that might be possible to select multiple destinations. Alas no.
