[File Request] cascade feature to allow granular uploading of files to a folder structure / subfolders.
[File Request] feature to allow uploading files to a folder structure / subfolders. The "Submit Files" page does not provide any context regarding the linked folder name without having to manually input this, and doesn't provide subfolders to allow the user to drill down and upload files into the subfolder of which they choose (with breadcrumbs of course to navigate back to the root folder share via the File Request URL. Currently users have to create a File Request per folder or invite users in to the parent folder as a "Previewer Uploader" in order to upload.
Alternatively, I'd just like to see "Share Link" functionality to be enhanced to allow for an option to "Can view, upload and download" since this already supports subfolder drill-down capabilities.

When an app is disabled for use, the client ID should be displayed on error page
When an app has been disabled, the error page displayed should surface the client ID in a manner that end users are familiar with instead of having to copy the URL and provide the ID from there. This is particularly useful because
1) the name of the app is missing from the error page
2) when it is a custom app that has been disabled it is removed entirely from the GUI which makes it difficult to track down.1 vote -
Restrict Apps (such as Box Sync) to a Group
With the impending deprecation of Box Sync I was looking to see about removing the Box Sync app from the Box App Store. I only see an option to disable Sync which would remove the apps, but also cause any installed Box Sync clients to start throwing errors since the service had been disabled.
I was told by support that I could turn Sync off for specific users, but we have way too many to make the adjustments on. While we don't use groups now, if there was a way to make apps available or unavailable at the group or enterprise level that would be perfect. In our case, since our success representative has provided a list of the ~400 Box Sync users, I could put those into a group and allow Box Sync, while all other users (not in the group) could be prevented from using if I could turn off Box Sync for the domain. This would only work if the group settings would override the top level. Similarly apps could be enabled for specific groups vs making them available to the entire enterprise.
Thanks for considering.

ipad app zip download
Running the Box app on the iPad, I can't find a way to download a set of files or an entire folder as a ZIP to any app or the Files app. This works great on Android, and even Google Drive handles it.

App sign in to specific folder
I use an iPad app to manage PDFs of sheet music. I can sign into Box from the app, but I don't want to grant access to my ENTIRE BOX FOLDER TREE. I want to limit the app to read-only access to a specific folder and its descendants. Is there a way to do this? Can I set up a pseudo-login that accesses just a portion of my tree?

Comments feature in Box Sign
It would be great for recipients of signature requests to be able to comment on the document. A lot of the times even though the documents are signed for final review and signature, recipients tend to have questions or comments on relevant sections of the document. It would be great to add this in. It's easier than having the recipient send an email with their questions separate from the request email.

Remove File Size Limit
File sizes only continue to grow as video quality improves due to better technology. Our video teams have some files that are 700 GB or more. We are unable to use Box as a backup solution because of the file size limit.

Restrict users to only some Shield label
Currently you can choose which users can put Shield label to contents.
However, this setting is for the whole tenant but I would like to set different types of users to some Shield label that does not apply to all the Shield labels.3 votes -

Warning about creating folders with invalid characters
The web application does not currently warn users about creating folders with invalid characters. For example, if you create a folder name that ends in a period [.] via the web, that folder never comes down to the Box client on a Windows machine. This is a limitation of windows.
However, other cloud providers WARN users before creating the folder in the first place and some even prevent the creation of the folder (Egnyte for instance).
A warning of "The folder you are creating contains an invalid character that may not be visible to users on Windows machines" or something to that effect goes a GREAT WAY to smoothing over the transition from a competing cloud provider to Box.

Box Relay's 'New Upload' trigger only fires with the first version of the file.
- Add "Box Script" to your drop down list of systems on this page.
- Modify Script's 'New Upload' Relay Trigger so it applies to updated copies of a file to that same folder. aka V2, V3, etc. Currenty 'New Upload' only fires on the first time a file with that name is uploaded.

Make scroll bar wider
When viewing a CSV file via Box's web portal/app, would love to see the tiny thin scroll bars made wider. (This form won't let me upload a screenshot of exactly what I'm referring to).

Include "Partial Success" file sizes in New Size category
In a Shuttle Transfer Report, items marked as "Partial Success" do not have their file sizes aggregated under the "New Size" category which indicates the total amount of data transferred during that migration job run. This can lead to a seemingly large discrepancy between the job Total Size and the amount of content which was successfully transferred.
Such "Partial Success" items ARE successfully uploaded to Box, but certain file details (e.g. original last modifier) may not have been successfully set in Box. The lack of this file metadata does not change the fact that the files themselves made it to Box. Their file size should therefore be included in the aggregated New Size category to better reflect the total amount of data which was successfully transferred to Box.

I want to get a list of information about Box specification changes and setting values.
I would like a function that allows me to see a list of information such as setting values when Box specifications or settings have been changed.
I understand that at this time there is no way to retrieve list information such as set values.
Therefore, when checking the difference between before and after the change, it is very inconvenient to obtain a capture or other means to check the difference.
Incorporating this functionality will also reduce the time required to prepare for verification.(日本語)

Updating versions from Box Drive seems to be critically broken
Saving over files in box drive used to update cloud with a version, it seems this is being ignored, and cannot be trusted when checking if this update is committed to the cloud. Things have gone seriously wrong with Box Drive integration every since macOS Ventura upgrade.

Box Relay: ability to save draft of workflows without setting all the required fields
When we create new workflows or edit existing workflows in Box Relay, we cannot save draft until we complete all the required fields. So we sometimes have to re-create workflows from the begging if we cannot fill in all the fields.
It would be more convenient if we can save draft without setting all the required fields, especially when we create new workflows.3 votes -
