  1. 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 2

    Being able to create sub collections would solve this.

    Currently my Box account is a huge mess of shared folders.

    Cheers,
    Matt

  2. Support OR matching on multi-select metadata fields in Metadata Query API to match functionality available in Search API

    Support OR matching on multi-select metadata fields in Metadata Query API to match functionality available in Search API: https://developer.box.com/reference/resources/metadata-field-filter-multi-select/

    Currently, Metatadata Query API only supports exact matches on multi-select fields.

  3. 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".

  5. Mark file as safe across entire enterprise

    We have a file stored in multiple (hundreds of) locations across our Box enterprise and it regularly gets falsely flagged as malicious. We mark it as safe each time, for each location. It would be nice if there was a way to mark the file as safe for ALL locations in our Box enterprise at once. The file is identical name, size, and hash in each location so marking it as safe once instead of hundreds of times would be very much appreciated.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. Be able to set a particular default search File Type such as "Folders"

    Be able to set a particular File Type such as "Folders" be the default file type in search rather than "Any Type." Would like to be able to select a file type as default.

  14. Ability to rearrange the image files displayed on Box Drive and Box Web

    For image files (photos), such as jpg and png files, there is a Date taken item in the "Properties".
    On Box Drive and Box Web, We wants to organize the photos by descending or ascending order based on the Date taken.
    However, since [Box Drive] and [Box Web] do not have the Date taken attribute, files cannot be organized by the date and time they were taken.
    Thus, we would like you to add the Date taken attribute.

  15. Box Sign Notifications and Tasks

    Would like the ability for internal users to receive a task notification if assigned a signature as well as for the signer to receive a notification in the notifications bar when a document has been signed or rejected.

  16. Ability to lock file to prevent other users from editing a file

    Lock and Unlock feature: The lock feature should be set so that when the Person A locks a file so that they can work on the file, it should prevent the others listed on the Share from being able to Unlock the file. It defeats the purpose of locking the file if someone else can just unlock it while Person A is still in the midst of editing a file. The only person outside of Person A who should have the option is the Owner and Co-owner of the Box folder. All others like Editor, Viewer etc, should NOT be…

  17. Enable option for non-Admins (e.g. folder owners) to be notified about Box Shield Threat Detection

    Enable option for non-Admins to be notified about Box Shield Threat Detection.

    E.g. Owner of folder is also notified. Today, only Co-Admins can get Box Shield Threat Detection notifications.

  18. 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.

  19. 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)
