Add option to cancel workflow
Currently there is only delete option to stop the workflow.
Workflows are stalled or stacked as in progress sometimes. We want to assign similar task manually or re-assign the same task to complete the workflow in time.
But it will cause duplicated tasks assigned unexpectedly or file operation (move or copy etc.) is executed twice. This is very confusing.
So we want to cancel the existing workflow before manual workaround.12 votes -
Increase size of left-side menu on Home screen
The left-side menu on the Home screen is too narrow and cuts off the names of folders/files saved under My Collections/Favorites.
Users should be able to set whatever width is needed for the menu.

Enable option for a pre-built integration with Addepar
Enable option for a pre-built integration with Addepar.
My wealth management customer sees Addepar as indispensable, and would greatly benefit from a Box integration, in order to leverage Box as the content layer for Addepar.
Addepar is their portfolio management system.

Custom apps with restricted folder access
We want to create a custom app where access is restricted to certain folders only.
Downscoping is not the best solution.
JWT key pairs are at risk of leaking.
The key pair itself needs to restricted access to only specific folders.1 vote -
Update Box File Request with additional functionality so that it can perform as a PBC request list similar to Suralink.
Update Box File Request with additional functionality so that it can perform as a PBC request list similar to Suralink.
E.g. add more fields, enable option so the File Request does not have to all be completed all at once, enable a dashboard for sender and receiver to see completion progress on the full File Request, enable ability for creator of file request to approve items on the file request and mark them complete, enable ability for sender and receiver to edit the File Request retroactively after submissions.

Bulk converting files to most-recent latest version
Recently for some unknown reason, many of my files content were lost (size showed 0 bytes and could not be opened).
I had to revert those files back to most recent previous version MANUALLY, 1 BY 1 to recover my files (there were 200+ files affected). Please consider allowing bulk version revert.
Also, will be great to be able to search files with potential errors (e.g. 0 Bytes), so I don't have to manually locate them.
Thanks

Sometime special permissions are given and a place to record it would be convenient.

API for "CRUD" for Box Relay and Box Relay Lite
We have created over a hundred of Relay workflows and have currently faced a difficulty in adjusting all rules when our orgnization is changed. We would like to have a set of APIs for Relay for creation, reference, update and delete operations (so called CRUD).
Also we would like to have an way to update folder ID(s) on existing workflows. It would help so much especially when annual org change happens.

Allow Shield List of Countries Usable for Access Policies
There may be certain countries a Box customer may be prohibited from sharing with under any circumstance. I suggest making it possible to whitelist or blacklist entire countries by allowing Shield Lists of countries to be included in Access Policies.

Ability to configure Microsoft Teams Chat Files to exclude external user
We would like to be able to set it so that external users are not invited to Microsoft Teams Chat Files.
Currently, there is no way to prevent this from happening in the chat settings on the Teams side.
In addition, it is possible to invite external users on Box.(In Japanese)

Ability to print PDF documents without downloading
In order to make it easier for the end user to print PDFs it'd be nice to have a print option directly in the context menu (both in the document preview and on document list).
As PDFs tend to contain forms to fill in either interactively or manually it might be consiedered as useful to print them directly from the browser. Currently it's not possible as after user hits 'command + P' there's only 1 blank page to be printed.
The current user path for printing a PDF is:
1. Open a PDF in box webapp
2. download it to desktop
3. Open in another PDF viewer (chrome, adobe reader etc)

1. Open a PDF document in the document list
2. PrintOR

Request for resolving the problem of retrieving group memberships
I wish the following problem will be fixed :
We are able to see the issue when retrieving group membership datas if the group have multiple users having the same name and get membership with multiple offset.
For example, there are two users having the same name and both of users is a member of the group. If we request all of membership for the group with multiple offset, the endpoint of group may only include one of both, not include another user in the response.I have submitted this incident to Box support ticket(#2387523), and received an answer that the engineering team of Box do not believe the impact of this is significant enough to prioritize at this moment...

This gets us a step closer to the vision of Box as the single place for all content.
Today, even though I have Box, employees can still save into Google Drive, which creates security, governance, privacy, and other risks.

Box Tools(or other app) Reports
Ability for Box Admins to run reports to see users who have Box Tools(or other Box Apps) installed. It would make it easier and more efficient for us to contact users who need to update to the latest version if we knew who had which apps and what version.

moving a file within a folder
As in Datasite, I wanted to move a file to a higher hierarchy within a folder (say file #4 should actually become #1), and also number the files (or folders within a folder) so we can talk about a number., not a full name. In Datasite you just drag and drop the file or folder and move location. Can this happen in Box as well? Thank you
