Ability to sort folders that appear in the "Select folders this user can access" view
The current view includes both parent and sub-folders. We would like a method for choosing Favorites or such that allows control of that window's view.
As we have a large number of folders, the current view is unmanageable and searching is cumbersome.

Shield classification - Admin console visibility and user reporting
1) "Whenever any user tries to apply the classification, Box console is not able to tell the owner which users would be affected due to this."
2) "As well as while adding external users for collaboration on a classified folder where external users have this limitation, It would be great if the console can let the owner know about it, Otherwise he would think all should work but in actual it's just not enough, He has to whitelist the external domain under classification."

researching by a user external collaboration invite status
researching by a user external collaboration invite status
Hope can be visualization of past collaboration history.
Usability will improve if each user can do it without the administrator having to go to see it when it is on hold.1 vote -
Prefill company, email, name and date field in the document automatically when BOX a user that is connected signs a document
Some people, have a lot of documents to sign . It will greatly speed up the process if some fields are prefilled in the document to sign ,if the signer is connected to his BOX account when signing the document: name, date, company, email. That information is available in BOX
Today, they have to fill those fields manually. Only the signature and initials can be adopted. It is hindering adoption
37 votesTo make the signing experience smoother and more efficient, we’re introducing the Remember Signers Data feature.
With this update, after completing an initial signature request, your Name, Title, and Company will be automatically pre-filled the next time you sign, saving time and reducing repetitive input. This enhancement is designed to create a faster, more seamless signing experience for frequent signers.
Let us know if you have any other ideas or feature requests that we can build to create a better Box Sign experience for you and your customers.

Able to get Box user ID by querying the username
Hi, currently in order to find a box user id for ONE user, we need to use
https://developer.box.com/reference#get-all-users-in-an-enterprise
to get ALL users and then filter for the specific user.If would be nice if we can simply query a user's box user id by the username.
1 voteThere is an optional parameter called `filter_term` which can be used to retrieve a user on the basis of the name or login. See link below and a snippet from the dev docs.
https://developer.box.com/reference/get-users/#param-filter_term`filter_term`
Limits the results to only users who’s name or login start with the search term.For externally managed users, the search term needs to completely match the in order to find the user, and it will only return one user at a time.

Box Hubs: Allow search functionality within Box Hubs for users without Box accounts
Current functionality: If a user without a Box account access a Box Hub through a shared link, they do not see the search bar
Desired functionality: A user without a Box account accessing a Box Hub will still be able to use the search bar
Use Case: Using Box as a marketing DAM housing photos. A hub could be used to provide access to approved photos so that non-Box users can search for approved photos they need.
20 votesThe team is working on enabling search bar for anonymous users in a Hub shared via the shared link. "Ask AI" functionality won't be enabled yet.

User management settings in mobile app
We would like user management access within the mobile iOS app. We would like to be able to reset a password on the fly as well as deactivate someone quickly if we are not near our computer.
1 voteThank you for the suggest! This is not an area in which we will invest.
App usage would be sporadic and would not drive engagement as much as dedicating our resources towards our existing apps.

Add a flag to enable/disable end-user collaboration emails
Currently, collaboration emails are only sent to the service account. Admins should be able to enable/disable whether their end users also receive collaboration emails when added to a Box for Salesforce integration folder, as workflows may depend on being notified that this folder exists/has been shared with an end user.

Allow Shared folders to be owned by Domain ( vs user)
Similar to Google's Shared Drives, allowing admins to set ownership of a shared drive at the domain level vs user (human or service) would minimize the need for Service Accounts or changing ownership as users leave the company.

allow admins to access new user account without onboarding
when a new user is added to our Enterprise a new user onboarding workflow is started. As an admin I would like to access the new users account without being hampered by the onboarding workflow. I would like to leave the workflow for the new user to step through but I can't get to their 'all files' if that hasn't happened.

Feature to retrieve a list of apps added to a managed user account
Currently there is no ability for tenant administrators to manage the apps that users are adding.
At a given point in time, we request the ability to get a list of app addition statuses in order to understand which apps are being added by managed users.(Japanese)

Open file from UI Elements without approval
Ability to open a file from UI Elements Open With with Box Edit without being prompted to Approve/Deny to proceed.
Currently, every time a file is opened from UI Elements, Box Edit displays the prompt and asks the user to Approve/Deny before the user can start locally opening and editing the file. This adds friction to user experience, and we want the option to not display this prompt and auto-approve the file open from UI Elements

Training - User Essentials Class 3.1
Your self-paced 'User Essentials Class 3.1' does not set itself to 'Complete' when the class is finished. It never shows up as a completed class in one's transcript. At the end, there is a 'Next' button that, when clicked, does nothing. It does not advance anywhere, so the class never 'completes'. Please fix this.

Send Signature Request on Behalf of Another User
Requesting the ability to act as another Box user when requesting a signature on a document. Use case is where an executive needs a doc for signature, and their admin generates that request on the exec's behalf -- the exec name holds more weight, so the ability for that admin to be granted extended Sign privileges to be able to send a request as if they were the exec. This is similar to Zoom's scheduling privileges where a user can schedule meetings as a "delegate" of another user (and the meeting invite looks as if it was coming from the …

prevent saving files on local disk to folders that the user does not have access to.
Prevent saving files on local disk to folders that the user does not have access to. At present just a warning pops up but non-tech-savvy users don't know what to do with that, and the errant files can only be found by logging in as that user on that particular machine. If there was some way to not allow invalid local saves it would be very helpful!

Binding existing files/folders to a virtual folder for sharing
Situation
I've been working on several projects for a client, with a main folder for each project containing the project files, organised in sub folders. My client asked me if it was possible to point him to one folder that contained the neccessary files from each project for simplified access, without having to send him multiple sharing links to each folder instead.Approach
Normally I would set up that folder on my local computer, put in all the necessary files and upload it, providing a sharing link to my client.Suggestion
What if it was possible to bypass this step…2 votes -

Shared Links Report Enhancement - Report from a specified folder and below
I would like a filter to be added to the Shared Links Report where you can specify a specific folder and the report will run with that folder as the top level and report on shared links for everything below that. This would run much faster than running the report for our entire tenant.
We have much of our data owned by a "Project Account" so it is not controlled by a specific employee. Because of this, running the report with this user as the owner using the existing filter option is much the same as running a tenant-wide report.…
