New Metadata Types that Reference Files, Folders, Users, and Groups
Provide the capability to store and manage a relationship as metadata. This would allow you to model peer and parent-child relationships between Files, Folders, Users, and Groups. This would store the unique id for the Box object and provide a user experience that would allow you to navigate to each item by clicking on the metadata value.

Shareable links that have direct download. By clicking the link the image/file begins to download immediately.
Some of the new product set up forms are automated and require links that automatically download the image. I recently had to migrate all of my images to DropBox in order to complete this task as they offer this functionality.

Provide a Datastore to store Developer App Variables and Configuration
Following the same pattern as Slack's Platform 2.0 Datastore support:
https://api.slack.com/automation/datastoresThis would remove one barrier to entry for managing app-specific data for Developers.

Allow Pin Feature to files
Allow a Pin Feature to allow the user to fully customize filing. Make it possible to pin a file(s) in a folder so it will not move in a numerical or alphabetical order but in the order that works for your company or organization.

Add a Box eSign workflow as the final step of a Relay contract review workflow
On Box Relay, can Box Sign directly integrate with a contract review Relay workflow? The idea here is that they want to create a workflow that reminds legal that they have things needed to be reviewed? (I.E. legal is getting a ton of requests, some things are being forgotten)

allow opening of Recent Files in Microsoft app, not just the browser
In "Recent Files" clicking on the three horizontal dots/ellipsis/meatball menu allows you to open Microsoft files in the browser, but not in the app. It'd be nice if you could just open in the app from the Recent Files section. Thanks.

Automatically enable the Dev Console in a new Developer Sandbox
When creating a new Developer Sandbox at https://app.box.com/master/sandboxes, it would be helpful to see the "Dev Console" button at the bottom left of the Box dashboard when logging in as the Primary Admin of the sandbox. You can access the Dev Console by navigating directly to https://app.box.com/developers/console, or by clicking a button in the invitation email, but if that button is overlooked, it can be confusing to figure out how to navigate there.

Relay: Trigger from External shared folder
Would like the ability to create Box Relay workflows where the trigger is in an External folder. My specific use case is our bookkeeping partner provides us dozens of files per day across several processes, and they use Box on their end to manage that process. We'd like to have for the folders that they share with us the ability to create a Relay flow that would trigger when they add files to those folders (e.g. When a new file is added to External ABC, create a copy in Internal ABC and notify some users).
This would allow us to…

Have a better way to show 'Full File Paths' for 'subfolders' in the web-app
Since people can be invited to folders that have the 'same name' it can be hard to identify in your 'All Files' view which folder is in which account.
Since you don't want to accidentally drop files in a folder that is shared with people outside your organization or vice-versa, it would be helpful to have a better way to identify which folder is from which account / directory structure.
For now the recommended guidance is to have the full file path of you directory structure in the sub folders so personnel can see which sub folders are from which…

Allow Users to 'Remove' all files from their BOX Drive as a right-click command
It would be nice, instead of logging out of BOX Drive on my personal computer to 'remove' all files on my personal device (so anything that was cached or downloaded). Instead of having to 'log out' of the BOX drive app.

Allow file locking when MS Office Coauthoring is enabled.
Prior to MS Office Coauthoring, I could lock a file in Box, with would allow me to edit it normally, but it would be read only for anyone else.
Since coauthoring, I can not open and edit files that I have locked. Support has let me know that this is just a limitation of coauthoring.
The workaround is to move the file to a folder where only I have editing access, but that would require moving the file around to different locations.
Would love the ability to temporarily lock files again. And if this isn't going to be (or can't…

When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.
When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.
For Example, a file created in Excel with the print settings set to A4 becomes 2page PDF files when uploaded to BoxSign.
This can be avoided by converting the files to PDF before uploading them to BoxSign, but if all the files are converted and then uploaded, the man-hours and number of files increases, which raises concerns about operational efficiency and data management, so we would like to see improvements.ExcelをBoxSignにアップロードした際Excelの印刷設定通りにPDFになるようにして欲しい
例えば、Excelで印刷設定をA4にあわせて作成したファイルがBoxSignにアップロードした際に2ページのPDFになります。
BoxSignへアップロードする前にPDFに変換を行えば回避できますが、全て変換を行ってアップロードを行うと工数とファイル数が増えて、
業務効率やデータ管理上の懸念点があるため改善を希望します。38 votes -
Alert notifications for large data set downloads and possibility of stopping large data sets being downloaded automatically.
Looking for better controls around alerts and protecting our data from potential bad internal actors. Ideally, controls around large data sets being downloaded locally to a machine. Can there be triggered alerts that will send an email about such a case or tools that will stop a user from downloading data sets larger than a specific threshold?

Show size of all files in a folder
When downloading, it would be useful to compare the total size of what has been downloaded to the total size of what is being downloaded. Files have sizes listed, not sure about folders, but a total of whatever is on the page, or what is selected would be useful.
