need to edit files but not change folder nae
I need the ability to give users permissions so that they can upload files, edit files, delete files but not be able to change the folder name that those files are in. I'm going to use Skysync to move files there and the process will break if someone changes the folder name. Right now i don't think i can do this.

Capability to finalize files
It would be useful if it's possible to "finalize" files. Means some persons work on a file together until it is finalized and then prevent any further modification on the file. There is the Lock function, but then the person who locked the file, could still unlock it.

Show only files that are not in the "Collections".
There are so many files on "All files". In such a situation, it is very useful to be able to show only the files that are not in the "Collection".

ABILITY TO CLOSE THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR ON FILES!!!!!!
GET RID OF THE ACTIVTY BOX ON FILES.
OF OUR ~10,000 FILES ONLY 6 HAVE COMMENTS, SO WHY SHOULD WE ALWAYS HAVE TO HAVE IT OPEN.
WHEN USING TWO OPEN WINDOWS SIDE BY SIDE, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE BOX BECAUSE HALF OF THAT WINDO W IS OVERTAKEN BY THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR.
YOU USED TO BE ABLE TO CLOSE IT, WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!2 votes -
Ability to add reminder notification function for folders and files
I want you to apply the remind notification function for folders and files
Currently Box Relay cannot send reminders for folders and files.
I want you to apply the function to send notifications with a custom date and interval for each folder and file.
With this function, it is possible to prevent oversight of work that has a deadline, and it is possible to carry out work efficiently.フォルダやファイルに対してのリマインド通知機能を適用して欲しい
現在BoxRelayではフォルダやファイルに対してリマインド通知を送信することができません。
フォルダ、ファイルごとにカスタムした日付と間隔で通知を送信する機能を適用して欲しいです。
この機能により期日のある作業の見落としを防ぐことが出来て、効率的に業務をおこなうことが可能となります。7 votes -
Upload all files possible, don't stop the upload queue when an error is encountered
There was a recent Box change where the upload queue now stops whenever an error, any error, is encountered where, previously, the upload queue would just continue to upload all files possible and the upload queue would remain open so you could scroll through and check which files failed to upload. Now you can't run an upload over night because as soon as one file upload fails, the whole queue stops, which is ridiculous.

Save the default view for STL files on upload
We would like the ability to save the default view for STL files to save the orientation, render mode, and camera projection within the web preview
We used to be able to save the default view for STL files within a Box3d Metadata of the file. We no longer have that ability.

Migration of files larger than 10MB from Google Drive
As it stands, we are unable to migrate content from Google Drive due with there being a HARD limit of 10MB as the max file size.
Google have a workaround which is outlined here - (1) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55274737/is-there-any-way-download-bigger-than-10mb-documents-using-google-drive-api#:~:text=1-,This%20is%20answered,-in%20this%20question and here (2) https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/reference/files/getThis would mean changing the Shuttle tooling so that Instead of using the Drive API Files:Export method, you can use Files: get (2) with fields = exportLinks.
3 votesThe limit on exporting Google files larger than 10MB is imposed by Google. We have reviewed the various available APIs and workarounds, but none of them produced a viable result. They all have other limitations that make them unsuitable for migration.
We will continue to monitor as Google continues to evolve and adapt its platform, and will look to increase this when or if it becomes viable.

Add metadata to multiple files (without using a folder cascade)
I was wondering if it would be possible to add the possibility to add metadata to different pictures/files at the same time. We know it's possible to add meta data to a whole folder, but we would like the same to be possible for a selection of pictures within a folder. It is possible to add tags in this way, but not meta data.

Box Drive Should Show Files With Illegal Filenames or Characters
We need Box Drive to be able to point to the offending error in Windows Explorer or Finder. Click on the offending file, folder is opened and file is selected in Windows Explorer or Finder in order to fix.
33 votesThis is not something that we have on the roadmap for the foreseeable future. Notifications were suppressed for these items and we will be investigating different ways to make problem items in general more discoverable.

Upgraded my laptop, lost hundreds of files, Box support claiming files never properly synced
Hi Box, I am incredibly frustrated and disappointed with your product. Your customer support team said I need to post the feedback here. I have been using Box Drive for the past four years and was using it to keep track of sensitive and important records and information related to my employer's financial statement audits. This included hundreds of workpapers and workbooks used to gather and compile information to send to our auditors for the company to pass our annual audit. I could view the files in Box Drive and in the online web browser, indicating that they had properly…

Server side un-zipping of files
Some teams share very large (multi-GB) zip files and a separate team members need to see the contents of these zips.
Having the full team wait for Box Edit Open with Compressed (zip file) option or using Box Sync are our only workarounds today and not time or network efficient for users.
2 votesThis is not currently planned. Thank you for the submission.

Independent back-up of files in box
In allot of professions, regulatory requirements require for us to have an independent back up of the files. With today's increased ransomware where they freeze your files, having an independent back-up is a great idea. I propose for Box to have all the files backed-up to a third location where its stored for access if needed. What happens if someone deletes a file by mistake or get all the files deleted. Having a site as back up will be a great idea. Filed could be backed up once a week. And I can tell you I will pay…

Add the ITEM ID to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder) in order to join to Files and Folder report on ID
Add the item id to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder). This would allow the User Activity events to be joined to the Files and Folders report data in order to report on activity against files and folders. An example report would be a list of all activity (Downloads, Previews, etc...) for a specific Box account. Currently the User Activity report only shows the activity that a specific user has done, but not what activities have been done against the content owned by a specific user. This would allow for a wide range of…

I’d take a random playback function too, but this is secondary for me.

Provide an option to sync files with names beginning with '.'
Box sync / box drive needs to provide an option or a setting that will enable files whose names begin with '.' to be sync'ed.
Reason: I would like to be able to use Box Drive as storage for projects that I manage via Eclipse and GIT. However there are files and directories named .git and .project that currently box drive does not sync, which makes using my box drive as storage for such things impossible.3 votes
