Display folder sync warning message and revers sync from local folders
Dear Admins,
would it be possible to have an option , warning about all data deletion or when whole box folder is being removed from box, be shown before sync. with local folders? This would prevent data loss.
As well option to sync. from local copy will enable option to easily restore data from Box, this would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Auto-sync sub folders
If you sync a main folder, every folder under it or created inside it should get synced. I shouldn't have to go back to box.com to see if someone added a folder to the main directory if I have it so that directory is synced.
So if I have main directory Projects and someone adds a folder called Peanuts, it should automatically sync the peanuts folder and all its contetns because I told box to sync everything in the Projects folder. I shouldn't have to search out new folders every day, it should automatically download them to my computer.

Improving "Folders and Files" Report Output
Currently, when outputting the "Folders and Files" report, it is not possible to output folder-only information. Therefore, only folders need to be extracted from the output report. If file information is included, the number of records output will increase significantly. We would like to be able to output folder-only information. In doing so, it would be great if we could also specify the hierarchy of the folders. For example, up to the top 5 levels.
現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートの出力時に、フォルダのみの情報を出力することができません。そのため、出力したレポートからフォルダのみを抽出する必要があります。ファイル情報が含まれると出力されるレコード数も大幅に増えてしまいます。フォルダのみの情報を出力できるようにしてほしいです。
その際に、フォルダの階層も指定できると嬉しいです。例えば、上位5階層までなど。4 votes -
Anyone can upload file via shared link
I want that through the shared link anyone who gets that link can be not only viewer but also uploader. This would be very helpful for us when collecting data,pictures, files - anything.
It would be great to have option 1. viewer only option 2. viewer and uploader - that way we can choose if people can only view or view and upload.3 votes -
Expired Shared Link Notification to Owner
Today, if I click on an expired shared link I cannot access the file. Ideally, I'd like the content owner to be notified if I click on the expired shared link so that they know that I'm trying to access it/can make it available to me.

Ordering Files and Folders in numerical order, rather than Folders first and then Files
Have the option to have an entire Folder listed by Name (ie, in numerical order) no matter the Folder/File. For example, not listing Folders first and then Files.

Enable processing in folders with editor permissions in Box Automate
Currently, due to Box restrictions, if the option “Limit sending invitations to collaborators to folder owners and co-owners only” is enabled for a folder specified in an Automate flow, and the flow owner specifies a folder to which they have been invited as an editor, errors will occur for “task assignments, file operations, and folder operations,” causing the process to fail.
Many companies allow co-owners and higher-level users to be invited, but if that were the case, it would significantly reduce usability under the current system. Therefore, I would like the workflow to function properly even when folders with editor…

Syncing bookmarks and Windows shortcuts between Box Drive and online.
To better organize my personal Box files and share with teams, I've saved my files in the team folder and used a Windows shortcut (in Box Drive) in my personal Box folder to link files/folders elsewhere on Box. Box Drive doesn't sync Window's shortcuts so these links are lost when working online. The workaround online is to use the bookmark function, using file/folder URLs to create shortcuts. It would be great if bookmarks or window's shortcuts synced between online and Box Drive modes. At the moment I'm having to bookmark online and shortcut on Drive to link up files…

Ability to generate shared links with the same settings for multiple items in a folder
We would like the ability to multi-select content, generate shared link references to the content, and either have the result exported to a CSV file or into a table formatted Box Note with File Name and shared link URL.
We are looking to displace existing Wiki functionality in favor of Box

Public Shared links - admin console ability to add password protection
I think along with the capability of adding an overall expiration date to Public shared links within the admin console, the ability to enforce password protection or even a verification code would also help a lot in locking down the possibility of information getting into the wrong hands.
So if i received the public link before opening it I somehow either have been provided a password or another idea you make the requester enter a mobile/email to send a once off pin code to allow them to access it.

Enforce parent folder collaboration restrictions on moved folders
Make sure that folder settings apply to all the subfolders. Currently, even if you restrict collaboration to within your company through folder settings, a folder that is already collaborated to external users can be moved into that folder. Right now, we don’t have the mechanism to check if a folder that is about to be moved is collaborated to external user.

Enable different folders to sync on different PC's
I want to sync a different subset on folders on a different PC. It appears that is not possible. You can only select one set for syncing... and that's it.

User-Level Sharing Controls: Control sharing permissions at the User level
This request is specific to controlling external sharing permissions and defaults at the user level. For example, an admin should be able to permit whether a user can generate Open Shared Links (e.g., disable open links per user), invite external collaborators, and the default shared link permission that is generated by that user, even if those users are within a folder that has external sharing enabled.
31 votesWe are currently focused on building groups for access to 1st and 3rd party apps and specific enterprise settings in Box rather than focusing on groups or individual users for sharing controls. Uservoice request here: pulse.box.com/admin/v3/suggestions/36670615
To achieve granular sharing controls, you can explore using Box Shield to classify sensitive content and set access policies to that content.

Customize "shared settings" notification
Hi,
Whenever I put a BOX link on slack, I always get the "shared settings" notification.
"It says I can customize the sharing settings use the dropdown list. "
But I just want to share the link, don't want to customize every time. Is it possible to set not to display this?
1 voteYes, this is possible via setting the Default Instant Permission to "Do Nothing". This can be set up in Box app's Home page in Slack.

Indefinite retention for top level, Finite retention for sub-folders
Ability to have an Indefinite retention policy as a top level folder and Finite retention policies on sub-folders. Sub folders should by default inherit from the parent, but if listed in another policy then the sub folder should be able to override the default
a. This would prevent having to have separate folder trees for Indefinite and Finite policies
b. The parent could be ‘Work in Progress’ and then just move to a sub folder…keeps the documents more logically organized by department

Allow setting passwords on folders
Setting passwords on files is good, but we should be able to set passwords on folders (at any level of a folder structure). The ability to set passwords on folders should be limited to owners and co-owners.
