Box Drive - All files organization
Box Drive does not currently allow for organization of your All Files folder.
To reorganize or move folders on this screen, it actively moves the folders, which isn't always possible. Due to different staff members requiring access to only portions of each folder, we cannot bunch together certain folders that would otherwise belong together.
For the all files screen, Box should implement a way to label and organize folders for your own personal box, that does not affect where the files are located and how they are shared. There is a way to do this with the collections list on…

Manage collections folder through sub-collections
I have too many Box folders shared with me and they all show up under "All Files". Collections is a good way to organize but I need to have a hierarchy/folder structure for Collections. Currently this can only be achieved through faking a folder structure through naming.
example
Project1
Project1-subproject1
Project1-subproject 2Being able to create sub collections would solve this.
Currently my Box account is a huge mess of shared folders.Cheers,

File preview could use "Preview As..." option
Some people such as programmers use ".out" as a file extension for a text file. Although Box has done much work to support various filetypes in preview mode, Box does not offer a "Preview As Text" option as far as I can tell. It would be helpful to allow users to open files with "Open as text".

Order Items in Collections Manually
I would like to be able to manually sort items in my collections. Items in a collection currently sort alphabetically, but I want to move items that I use the most to the top of a collection list.

Comments in the preview and the word/docx file should be synchronized
Right now, there are two layers of comments when reviewing a word/docx file. If comments are added in the preview, they are not visible when the file is opened in editing/review mode. Furthermore, if comments are marked as resolved in the online editor, the "resolved" status is not persistent if the file is downloaded, edited offline, and uploaded again as a new version.

Ability to set a display image for the group
I want to be able to set any image in the group.
Because it can be difficult to understand the purpose of a group just by the name of the group.
The image should be set to make it easier to understand what the group is.4 votes -
Add themes to folders
I wanted to deliver a folder of images to a client and they've asked me to theme or brand the folder so they can forward to their guests. This would be great to be able to do.

Location on Mobile App
For Audit purposes, it would be good if the BOX mobile app had access to location while using the App, so the geography report included the location of mobile app users.

Ability to identify meta data returned being customer inputted or Box System generated
When using the method to return all metadata file.getAllMetadata();
The response seems to be returning numerous sets of metadata templates that are attached to the file, both customer created and Box system related.
It would be good if there was an attribute / flag to filter out values that are customer entered vs Box System generated.

Disable expiration period change for public shared links only
Currently it is possible to set up automatic expiration period for public shared links in Admin Console, which is an important security feature. However, users can extend the expiration period in Shared Link Settings. It would be more secure to disable expiration period extension for public shared links by users, while allowing them to change expiration periods for other types of shared links (company or collaborators only)

Folder path and Page numbers missing from Bin (Box Admin)
Box Admins will regularly view Box accounts of a user, and the user's Bin. Without the Folder Path displayed (which should be SORTABLE and FILTER on), it is difficult to isolate content that was deleted from a specific location.
Instead it is necessary to run a Box Report of a folder, which does include the folder path, then sort the Bin by Updated column, scroll through multiple pages to find content before restoring (hopefully) the correct one(s)
The Bin should display the folder path for each row (where blank Details column is), and be able to SORT that column and…

User access provisioning
Currently when provisioning folder access for users, the console looks messy with every item listed and 'none' shown next to the granted access - it would be more helpful to only show what they have access to and their level of access. Adding access to a new folder that exists could be done with a dropdown search box
