Want to have an option to skip the "Save" button
Every time a user finishes writing, the user needs to click Save button. As it is not intuitive and effective so it should be the same UX as iPad's markup (Apple's standard annotation)

Recent Box Notes design update - make optional the in-table adjusts
I type into cells in tables and find it disorienting that they now highlight to allow for changes. I would prefer this to be an optional UI, and be able to opt out and revert to old design where I had to click on top icons to remove or add cells.

Co-authoring name display
Per the recent update to Box Notes, you no long can see the names of the people co-authoring the Note consistently while working. They now only show up as a line in the document making it very difficult to locate, especially when the Note gets very large. Please bring back the display of names at all times

We would like you to be able to specify the person who operated and the target folder and file when outputting by specifying "restore from trash" in the activity report.
Currently, if you know the item name for sure, it will not be searched if it has been moved to the Recycle Bin, and you cannot specify items in the target folder and file items.
If it becomes possible to specify when reporting even if it has been moved to the trash,
It is a useful clue when conducting research.(In Japanese)
アクティビティレポートで「ごみ箱から復元」を指定してを出力する際に、操作した人や対象フォルダやファイルも指定できるようにしてほしい。現在はアイテム名を確実に把握している場合にごみ箱に移動されていると検索にかからない仕様になっており、対象のフォルダとファイルの項目にてアイテム指定を行う事ができない。

File request - Allow only Manage Users from an EID to upload via File Request
In file request, have the ability to state that only a managed user in the EID or an external user that has been invited to the folder can upload, no one else. By doing this, it prevents a file request link from being randomly guessed or found on the internet AND prevents a random user from uploading bad or malware/virus infected content. The current state of requiring the user to login is too generic and doesn't meet the requirement of keeping the file request locked down. Using the collaboration role for upload is not what is needed. The File Request interface is what is needed with greater level of security on it.

Ability to manually update a Box Drive version (menu option)
I would like to see version update added to the right-click menu of the app so that I can manually update when the latest version of BoxDrive is released.
Currently, Box Edit and Box Drive are designed to automatically update their versions, but depending on the user, the timing of implementation may be delayed or there may be cases where the version is not automatically updated.
In order to deal with this, we have to uninstall and reinstall the tool, which is very inconvenient.

Full Image Thumbnail Option
For the image thumbnails, is there a way to toggle the view, so that one can see the entire image vs. a cropped version? I've noticed a recent change where all thumbnails are cropped, and in order to view the full image you need to click to open each individual file, which is a less efficient browsing method. Is it possible to return to the previous viewing option to see the full image within each thumbnail?

Multiple Operators for Conditional Workflows in Relay
Currently Box Relay allows a single operator for numbers in conditional metadata workflows (ie if the 'Amount' field is less than 50,000). If there was a way to have a combination of these operators for a single condition based on a range (ie if the 'Amount' field is between 50,000 and 100,000 as opposed to just greater than, less than, equal to, etc), this would be very helpful for contract approval/review routing in Box Relay, among other use cases where there are different outcomes for different range of numbers based on a metadata field.

Two User accounts on same Windows 10 computer
There should be a possibility that two users on the same windows 10 computer, each user separately logging into his/her own windows account, could each log into his/her own box account and use box drive. BoxDrive is much more convenient that to go via the browser. This seems not possible now.
Additionally it is annoying that the the box drive shows up for login when the second user enters the windows account, and if startup of box is switched off for that user, then it is also switched off for the main user (the admin user who has made the installation).There should be a possibility that two users on the same windows 10 computer, each user separately logging into his/her own windows account, could each log into his/her own box account and use box drive.

Dragging files or folders out of BOX makes a copy
With the recent update to BOX Drive, when you move something from BOX to your computer it removes it from BOX. It used to make a copy by default. We use BOX as a shared file server and this change allows for accidental deletion.
Can you please add the ability to make this copy rather than move the file, only when moving out of BOX onto the computer or an outside volume?

When using Box Sign, Go straight to document without Box Terms of Service Pop up window modal
We are looking for ways to reduce friction and points of interruption during the Box Sign Flow for end users. One of these points is the pop up window that requires an agreement to Box Terms of Service after following the Document Link from a Box Sign Email.
We would like a configuration option to skip this step all together such that, when an end user clicks the link for a Box Sign Document in an email, they are immediately presented the document and signature options. This type of flow interruption could negatively impact user adoption of this service compared to competitors.

Add Ability to view Overflow Files in Box
It would be really helpful and can save us alot time if we are able to view the actual Overflow interaction flows in Box. That way we can provide comments and feedbacks on the file. Currently, we can only comment on exported PDF's since Overflow is not supported and can't be viewed.

To default folders to sort files descending not ascending.
Not sure why the Box program does not offer a default for folders/files to sorted descending not ascending. Who or what application does it benefit for the folders/files to be defaulted to the ascending, other than the constant secondary clicking of a mouse to hit the name sort button.

Box Relay - ability to share a folder to a group
In Box Relay it would be nice to be able to share a folder to a group and not only to users.
Entering all the members of the group one by one can be time consuming and over time the members of a group evolve, which means that the Box Relay settings have to be changed.12 votes -
Select Upload Limit, Pause Uploads
Hello, I have multiple ideas for this relatively limited featured app:
We should be able to select how many items we wish to upload at a time, instead of this default 10 or so at a time. If I've got a busy schedule, I sometimes want to achieve a few uploads at time and then pause (next point).
We should definitely be able to Pause Uploads, Dropbox has it, OneDrive has it, why not Box. For my work, I need my bandwidth quite often, so currently the only way of "pausing" is closing the app completely, and not knowing whether my uploads have actually uploaded.
Auto Retry Uploads - if one fails, it should autotry - simple!
Set Upload Speed Limit - This is useful in line with point 2, if I need my bandwidth (and I can;t pause them), then I should be able to drop this down to a minimal speed.
Faster uploads - for some reason Box Drive is way slower to upload, but it more reliable than uploading via the browser. Dropbox is super fast, so is WeTransfer.

Alphabetize collaborator names
Hello, when I view collaborators to a file/folder, the "name" column cannot be alphabetized. I tried clicking on it to make this occur and it is greyed out. When comparing this to a list of names alphabetically it would be so efficiently helpful to have the Box folder listed by name and not by date. Can you please make this available?

Last modified date affected by added metadata
Good afternoon,
When the metadata for a box file record is updated from the UI or from the api, the last modified date and last modified by is not updated. So, it is clear that nowadays only the content itself matters when updating such metadata but if a document altogether with its metadata is considered a unity, it would be good that the modification date would be also changed by a metadata change.
Please, could you consider to have this implemented?
Thanks
