Synchronize Single Files in folders
We want the ability to synchronize individual files in a folder to the desktop rather than entire folders, allowing us to accelerate what is available in the WebUI faster.

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 -
Password Setting for Shared Links
When setting a password for a shared link, if unsupported characters (symbols " >" / "<" and spaces) are entered, an error will be displayed and the password will not be set.

Associate Group with Shared Email Address
In Enterprise User Management tools such as GSuite and Active Directory, it is very common to have a group specifically for Distribution lists or shared email inboxes.
It would be helpful if, within Box groups, a group could be associated with such an email address.
This email would be able to receive notifications when the group is granted access to a folder or assigned a task (another request I have seen).
Important, this shared email address must not be associated with a system user account; otherwise a user seat would have to be used for the account, which isn't helpful.

Lock/unlock sub-folders at will
Product enhancement request: Create one main link to access a folder and its sub-folders, yet block some sub-folders from being downloaded. Benefit to user is that I can load all files at once, yet allow access only when I choose to. I can provide the link to users once. This saves me time and reduces confusion. An example of how this is being used is for a product launch where some files have been approved for distribution and the others have not yet, but will be “released” later in the week.
Example:
· Create Folder 1

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…

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).

Share this Folder
On a shared (collaborated) folder ensure that the "Share this Folder" option is removed from all external collaborators as testing has shown that it is possible for an external collaborator (even with viewer permissions) to enable sharing and get a copy of the shared link albeit the link defaults to “internal access” only.
3 votesThanks for the feedback. Per our collaborator permission guidelines, Viewer permissions are able to see and send view-only shared links — however they cannot invite collaborators or modify sharing permissions.

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.

The logo displayed in the shared link preview may violates customer's brand guidelines.
The company logo displayed in the upper left corner of the shared link preview page is incorrectly cropped and filled in.
Many use cases of the shared link should adhere to each company's brand guidelines.
Example:
-Provide a company-wide notification on a shared link of "Users in the company"
-Publish introductory material about the company's products on a shared link of "everyone with the link"The current unauthorized editing of the logo is undesirable and should be improved as soon as possible.

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

My Collection folders to be kept open when opening another My Collection Folder
Hi Team,
A client has requested to be able to keep the My Collection folders open when they open another My Collection folder.
Currently, when you select one of the folders in the left side menu, you can only open up one folder. When you select a new folder, it closes the previous one.
It would be great if it is possible to keep the previous folders open unless the user wants to close it by clicking again.Thank you in advance for your consideration.
7 votesThanks for the feedback. We have decided to allow only one expanded collections in the left side menu so we can maximize the performance of loading the left side menu.

Update Shared Link Reports to Stop Security Flaw
Whilst I see this issue was raised a few years ago, I wanted to separately address this.
Currently, from discussions resulting from a support case ticket, when I send a shared link email, there doesn't appear to be a shared link report that includes critical details such as the date the shared link was sent together with at least the email address of the recipient.
The shared link report under User Activities only appears to show actions by the owner of the link and no details of the recipient (i.e. download/access details).
As it appears there is no way that…

Add "ent" to the URL of the shared link
Please add "ent" to the URL of the shared link.
Currently, "ent" is not appended to the URLs of shared links issued by tenants who have enabled the Box Verified Enterprise feature.
In certain countries and regions, access to "box.com" may not be possible.
One effective way to get around this is to access Box from a URL with "ent.box.com".When a shared link is issued by a BVE tenant, if the URL has "ent" attached to it, there will be fewer actions by the customer beyond that point, making the interaction smoother.
(日本語)
共有リンクのURLに「ent」を付加してください。現在、Boxベリファイド Enterprise機能を有効にしたテナントにおいて、発行した共有リンクのURLに「ent」が付加されません。
特定の国や地域では「box.com」へのアクセスができない場合があります。
これを回避するための有効な手段として「ent.box.com」がついたURLからBoxにアクセスするというのがあります。BVEのテナントで共有リンクを発行した際にURLに「ent」が付いた場合、その先のお客様によるアクションが減るため、やり取りがスムーズになります。

Folder differentiation on Web App
While Box does show a different folder if a folder is shared (blue with people silhouette) you are unable to tell which is shared BY you and which is shared TO you. I recommend changing the folder color to the default color, but adding the people silhouette when YOU share folders, then the blue one with the silhouette can be used for folders shared TO you.
