UX switching 2FA method
Changing 2FA method requires removing first. This breaks existing shared feeds for others and is alarming.
The way you need to re-accept then go back and forth between pages refreshing each time before it shows as re-established is far from "Simple" or intuitive.1 vote -

Signature on our Terms of Service / Box Sign
We need a signature on our Terms of Service. It'd be great if Box Sign could be utilized on the TOS so that our users can draw their signature for it to please our oversight.

Ability to set an optional time for lock files .
I want to set the lock time to any desired time, not preset such as 5 minutes or 15 minutes.
Ability to specify presets is useful, but optional time settings are also needed.1 vote -
Folder setting: enable/disable file request
Feature that allow owner/co-owner of folders to enable or disable file request in the folder setting.
Currently, users can generate file request link in any folders with editor permissions. Some enterprise want to control (disable) usage of file request at the top-level folders depending on intended use.
e.g. disable file request link in [internal-only] folder.3 votes -
Select and Take Action on Multiple Sign Requests | Bulk actions
With Batch Send now available, higher volume e-signature use cases should become more and more prevalent. It'd be great to have the ability to select multiple Sent Requests for Sending a Reminder, Downloading the document, Canceling the Request, and Deleting the Request, as today this must be done on a one by one basis. This would help Box Sign users manage their requests in a more efficient way.

Add More Granular Control Over Group Management for Co-Admins
I have a use case where I have my Marketing Manager setup as a Co-Admin with permissions to edit metadata templates. We'd now like her to also be able to manage the groups that controls access to marketing's folders. The problem is, because she's a co-admin Box won't allow us to assign her as a group admin. The only way we can allow her to admin the groups is to also give her Manage Groups access as part of her co-admin role. The issue with that is it would give her the ability to manage all groups, which we do not want.
It would be great if the co-admin functionality would allow us to select a list of groups that the co-admin can manage OR make it so that co-admins that don't have permissions to manage groups could also be assigned the Group Admin role.

Box Sign - Make PDF form fields fillable
Box Sign does not currently recognize embedded PDF form fields. You can add a text, date, checkbox, or signature field to a PDF document, but the original form fields are unavailable (but left intact).
Use case: We ask our contractors to complete IRS W-9 forms using the standard IRS fillable PDF forms. If Box Sign could recognize the embedded fields in the IRS forms, our contractors could fill out, sign, and file the forms in one process. As it is, we will have to send them the fillable PDF form, ask them to fill it in and send it to us, and then send it the filled form back to them for signature.

Increase the maximum message size in Update task API to more than 250 chars
Calls to the Box Task API with a message size greater than 255 chars throw an error a statusCode 500 error.
The relatively small maximum for message size limits the utility of the API and is not in line with the Box UI that allows a very large message to be input.
API Call details:
url: https://api.box.com/2.0/tasks/task_id
method: PUT

Add new options for "file event" when creating a relay workflow
Please add the option "New version or Updated" when creating a workflow for a "file event". The new upload option doesn't work if we're simply making an update/edit to an existing document.

Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger
Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger.
Triggering a Relay on a specific file when it has been updated directly or updated with an upload, maintaining file history.
The current workaround is to create a "New upload" Trigger, then the file needs to be Deleted and create/uploaded from new, thus requiring 2 steps and losing file history.

Show File Quantity in Grid Mode
When looking at your folders in grid mode, it would be nice to see the quantity of files in the folder without having to open the folder and select all files or going into list mode. I think it used to be like this but last time I looked I couldn't see the file quantities and it was a cumbersome process for me to figure out the quantity.

Enable end users to group shared folders
Please enable end users to group shared folders. Sometimes folders are shared with you in piecemeal manner. It would be nice if the end users can group these folders Marie Kondo style.

Password updates
Login passwords currerntly enforce unnecessary format restrictions that are hindering the use of password generators. Characters < > cannot be used, and there also is a requiement to include at least two digits. Most hashing password generators use all printable characters (as they should), and ensure only the occurrence, but not the quantity, of character classes, i.e. 1 of each printable chartacter classes (uppercase, lowercase, numeric, special).
Suggestion: allowing all printable characters and only requiring a minimum of 1 character from each intended class (occirrence only) would make Box login passwords compliant with the vast majority of hashing password generators and thus massively improve login security. There also is a cryptographic advantage to not necessarily requiring, but allowing all classes. At the same time, requiring a minimum password length of only 8 as per current implementation is grossly insufficient (we love Box, but it's not the 1990s anymore).
