Currently, requesting a collaborationobject does not surface either EID or usertype. (as seen in https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-collabs)

Dicom
Large folder has 2000 image files and 2 are corrupt. Currently the importer stalls and errors out due to the 2 corrupt files. Would it be possible to have a way to bypass this and tell the importer to go ahead and render the final study.boxdicom file WITHOUT all the files (2) being uploaded? A simply error catching sub that says – if you wait more than 30 seconds and you can’t get the last files, just go ahead and call the sub to build the final study.boxdicom file, and pop up a warning telling the user that – we…

Changed conditions for sending invitation deadline notification emails for external users
Currently, invitation deadline notification emails are sent to external users under the following conditions
- co-owner of the folder
- the user has been personally invited to the folder
- direct collaborators of the folder.
Please change the specification so that notification emails can be received even if the user is invited as a group rather than as an individual under condition 2.

Linked Files and Folders in Box Drive
I'd like to be able to have a folder linked to other folders with the same file so the file can be updated from either location.
For example, there are Client 1 and Client 2 folders each having the same Folder A within them. In Folder A would be File B and if you update File B by going through Client 1 folder, it would be updated the same as if you went through Client 2 folder.

Return collaborated files (single file collab SFC) under a folder via API
Currently, there are two API calls surrounding getting a list of collaborations:
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#view-a-folders-collaborations
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-file-collaborationsHowever, say a collaborated file exists under a non-collaborated/private folder. Now say the folder is large. It would be less easy to get a list of collaborated files under this folder without iterating through every single file.

Box Skills triggers for shared links and collaborators
Currently webhooks support shared link and collaborators event triggers. Webhook v1 can be set at org level but does not work. Webhook v2 cannot be set at org level.
As Box Skills is the recommended webhooks for 3rd party CASB providers over Webhooks v1 or v2.
Add Box Skills trigger when a shared link is created/deleted/modified

Expose A360 Viewer Integration Better (Preview & Context Menu)
There are 2 main issues with this UX:
1. It's buried in the More Options menu instead of being exposed at the top of the More Options menu, similar to the 'Open with' location for other files.
2. In Preview (or when using a Shared Link to a non-collaborator), the user is not shown any option to use the A360 Viewer (since the full context menu isn't in Preview), so they see a 'we cannot preview this file type' error message.REQUESTS:
1. Expose the A360 Viewer integration better in the More Options (context) menu

Use case :If this function was implemented, user can create deadline to editing file.

Box Relay's 'New Upload' trigger only fires with the first version of the file.
- Add "Box Script" to your drop down list of systems on this page.
- Modify Script's 'New Upload' Relay Trigger so it applies to updated copies of a file to that same folder. aka V2, V3, etc. Currenty 'New Upload' only fires on the first time a file with that name is uploaded.

Would love to have files/folders in numbered order when more than 9
In some of my Box Drive folders I would like to number the sub folders/files for best structure. So the folder names would be something like: 1. Budget, 2. Production plan, 3. ...... 10. Casting, 11. Marketing, and so on.
But when I have more than 9 folders numbered like this they will not keep in the numbered order. 10 and 11 comes before 2 and so on. This drives me and my coworkers crazy. Is there any way to fix this so that they keep in the numbered order 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11 and so on?1 vote -
Use the API to move a file in one Box folder and add it as a version in another folder.
Use case:
1. Un-retouched ref sits in Box folder
2. New version of file comes in from external retoucher
3. API moves incoming retouched file as version1 vote -
UX - Not clear when a note name is taken
When a user insert a note name and the name is already taken, there is a small notification at the end of the line.
It is not visible enough, and when focusing out the name reverts to the previous option.It took me 2-3 times to understand what the issue is because the notice wasn't clear enough.
Possible solutions :
1. add a suffix to the name
2. make a red bold notice on the name so the user can't miss it1 vote -

Content Manager - allow all folder transfer for all folders owned by one person to another
Using the superadmin box account, I can transfer ownership by folder. This is nice when I want to transfer 1-2 folders, but when a person leaves the university and that person owns 17 different folders in Box, changing ownership is a very manual task. Keep the change ownership model (under Content Manager), but also have an option that allows me to transfer all folders owned by one person to another - be it 2 folders or 20 or 200. Please.

Clarification of SDK Authentication
It would be really nice if there was a good clean copy of the authentication methods script. The pieces and parts don't work and it is hard to figure out why. Example... Trying to authenticate with OAuth2 you can't get it to work with the examples and then jumping over to upload files doesn't jive. Aside from the Dev Token method, I can't get anything to work. HOW DO I AUTHENTICATE WITH OAUTH2?

Allow preview of either the latest 99 comments on a file or all comments
If a file has more than 100 comments on it, there are 2 issues at play:
1) the mobile app only displays 100 of the 100+ comments
2) of the 100 comments the mobile app does display, it shows the oldest 100 commentsIdeally the mobile app could display all existing comments (aka more than 100 comments). If this is not possible or too intensive a project, instead of displaying the oldest 100 comments it should instead at least display the latest/most recent 100 comments
