Support custom objects via the mobile Salesforce and Box integration.
The Box and Salesforce integration for Salesforce mobile does not support custom objects at all so we had to create a deep link workaround that redirects to the associated folder within the box mobile experience (this also requires some salesforce coding to populate a field with the corresponding folderID). This is not a seamless experience....it is a clunky redirect.
Also, you are not able to create the corresponding box folder for the first time from the mobile experience....you have to create the box folder from the desktop from within the box integration within salesforce first, before you are able to access it from mobile. This is mainly due to the the mobile box and salesforce integration not supporting custom objects out of the box.
The custom object set up for the web app is also not seamless and requires from VF and tricky setup.

It would be nice if Box would reinstate their support or fix storage meter faults after bulk deleting folders.

Shared links still show Box's specific branding even after custom branding
We are a business user of Box. A critical feature for us is file previewing using Shared and Preview links. Even though we have used custom branding in Admin console -> Enterprise Settings, still the shared links show Box's specific branding e.g. Signin, Signup, blue color header bar prompting for signup, etc. This is a problem when we want to share docs to our customers using shared links.

Remove Box-branded Box Sync folder icon in MacOS Finder Sidebar
I just want a normal-looking, unbranded folder in my Finder Sidebar.
The current Finder Sidebar shows a rather ugly eye-sore of a logo in place of a plain folder icon, with no way to disable this customization so it pollutes every Finder window. I've tried pasting a new folder icon onto the Box Sync folder in the "Get Info" dialog box as is customary on MacOS for ALL other applications, but Box doesn't respect that icon (or the user's wishes).

"Show File Location" for Files Currently Uploading Through File Explorer/Finder
At this time, Box Drive only lists the File Name when checking the "Transfers" menu of synchronizing items. No indication is given as to where this syncing is taking place. The User is forced to memorize the location of an upload/download until it has completed.
I'm currently experiencing an issue where many large files (Gigabytes) are forever uploading after an unknown error restarts the upload upon completion. The only solution I've been given is to Log Out, thus deleting my Terabytes of Available Offline files. "UnsynchronizedFiles" in AppData proves to be unhelpful with certain errors.
Box Drive should allow the user to visit the location of the file being synced to the cloud. The file is stored on the local machine during upload, so this shouldn't have issues. The User would then have the flexibility of moving or deleting this file before the upload is complete, as well as avoid infinitely uploading loops that I'm currently part of (a form of self-problem solving further avoiding issues of clogging support lines). Every User would also be able to monitor files without descriptive naming conventions to other User that could be waiting on particular file uploads. For example, video files from a consumer camera are typically labelled by ascending numbers (PANA0243) without any identifiers to indicate where it's stored in the File Hierarchy.

Box Drive Security - Utilize MFA/ Enforce connection to specific network
For several reasons having our staff use Box Drive to access their files is the most helpful for our office. However it would be great if some additional security features could be added to Drive such as requiring the user be connected to specific network or utilize an MFA process. We currently have a vpn requirement setup to access the Box web app through our Okta service but this doesnt work as well with Drive since it caches the user credentials.

Add additional details in the the virus detection notification email
During this time (2022/02/28, Monday, 13:00), I received a virus detection notification email.
When I checked the contents, the upload date by virus detection notification email is 2020/06/16 9:36:17 JST,
Neither the target file was found in the path of the email presentation.I contacted MKI Box Support Desk.
We received the following answers."The virus scan seems to be rescanned accordingly based on the activity of the file, not only at the time of upload.
The frequency of scans is determined by the number of file activity.
It can be difficult to explain the consistency of when this notification arrives.
Please note that due to security specifications, no details have been released on this."There are no particular questions about the move to rescan.
The detection of a virus in an incorrect path is not always correct,
It can be read that consistency is not good, rather than difficult to explain.
In addition, virus detection, if it is not notified in a timely manner, the infection will spread, and it is easy to become a big problem.
If there is a logic problem with virus detection, it seems better to fix the logic,
It's confusing if you get notifications that don't always fit the actual one, so it would be helpful if you could consider it.
We look forward to hearing from you.この間（2022/02/28、月、13:00）、ウィルス検出通知メールが届きました。
内容を確認したところ、ウィルス検知通知メールでのアップロード日は2020/06/16 9:36:17 JSTであり、
対象ファイルもメール提示のパスでも見当たりませんでした。MKI Box サポートデスクへ問い合わせをいたしましたが、
下記のような回答を頂きました。「ウイルススキャンは、アップロード時に限らず、ファイルのアクティビティに基づき適宜再スキャンが実行されるようです。
スキャンの頻度はファイルのアクティビティの回数によって決定されるため、
どの時点でこの通知が届くかの整合性の説明が難しい場合がございます。
なお、このことに関してはセキュリティの仕様のため、詳細が公開されておりません。」再スキャン実施するという動きに関しては特に不明点がございませんが、
正しくないパスでウイルス検知されたことはつじつまが合わなくて、
整合性の説明が難しいというより、整合性がよくないと読み取れます。
又、ウィルス検知ですが、タイムリーに通知されないと感染が拡大ことに繋がり、大きな問題になりやすいです。
ウィルス検知はロジック的に問題がある場合、ロジックを修正したほうよさそうですが、
いつも実際と合わない通知が来られると混乱してしまうので、ぜひご検討いただければ助かります。

Allow multiple System Email Signatures
Use case of legal requirements/terms for sharing different types of data externally to be able to use multiple System Email Signatures. example: Assign a SES to a 'Footage' root folder where security footage is shared from versus a SES for 'Plans' which have much different requirements to accept.

My Collections on Box Drive
Just wondering you may develop 'My Collections' function on Box Drive.
164 votesThanks for the suggestion! We are looking at how to improve content sprawl on Drive. We will be considering Collections as a possible path (among other options), but don’t have a change planned in the near-term.

Specific Text Box Area for Notifications
Problem: Whenever a notification popup shows up (file is done uploading, file has moved, etc) it blocks access to a lot of functionality in the upper part of the screen - even something that is to the left or right of the notification but is not covered up.
Rather than having a popup notification to tell you that an event has finished (such as a file or folder being moved), instead create a static notification area to report to.

We would like Box to have a secure calendar available for office use.
We would love if Box had their own calendar available for office use. I work for a mobile anesthesiologist. We use Box to store patient info/files. Right now we use Google calendar for scheduling purposes, but can't put any patient information on it, as it's not secure. It would be great if Box had a secure calendar that we can use for scheduling. Mostly we would like if we can copy a patient's file to the day they are scheduled, so all of the info the doctor needs for the day is all in one place.
