Organize and Move Shared Folders Within Non-Shared Folders
I would like to organize folders that have been shared with me within folders that I myself have created and do not share with others.
55 votesThank you for the suggestion. We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap.
Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

Action Item Register
As a user of BOX I would like to be able to have one consolidated lists of all the action items that arise during meetings and I capture in the agenda template provided by Box. This way I can keep track of these action items in one place rather than having to open each agenda/meeting minutes document to list these in another location for tracking purposes.

provide a way to auto-check the 'Only one assignee is required to complete this task' checkbox
This is when you are adding approval tasks to a document. If you forget to check this, it can lead to everyone in a group having to go in and approve the document before it can be completed.

Support preview of script files such as Powershell .ps1 and .psm files
Preview fails on Box Web for Powershell scripts having a ps1 or other related extension.
Ideally this would allow one to look at the current as well as prior versions of the file in Box Web without having to download each version separately.6 votes -
Make bulk user upload more robust and improve error notifications
I attempted to bulk-add ~250 users. This turned into a long run of whack-a-mole and required Box Product Support intervention because:
a) Rows that did not have errors were not processed
b) Rows that did have errors sometimes failed silently (sometimes perhaps caused by secondary email addresses or external email addresses)My net experience was getting not-particularly-actionable errors like this:
Because some of the information in the file you uploaded may have contained errors or conflicts, not all users were added to your Box account successfully.
Of the 221 users in the file you uploaded, 221 users were not added…

Do not delete option
Id like to be able to designate certain folders in Box Sync that could only be deleted by going to the server and not from a local Box Sync folder on the computer to avoid possible accidental deletion of important folders or files.

Remove Collaborator Access Policy Security Control in Shield
When creating an access policy in Shield, there needs to be a security control that removes a collaborator after a specific period of time or on a specific date. It would work very similar to the "Invited Collaborators Expiration Settings" option that is available in the Admin Console under the Content and Sharing tab, but would be tied to a classification setting.

Allow me to stop Box Drive without hiding the Box contents
If I stop Box Drive (right click on the icon and choose exit), the Box folder disappears, even though I've marked all folders for available offline.
I sometimes am in a location with a very low data cap, and the costs for exceeding the quota are very steep. If I store a file in Box from another device, when my computer connects and Box Drive is running, then it will attempt to sync and download any files.
On my old Windows 10 computer, I didn't have this issue. The Box folder stayed around, and I could even add files to…

Auto-open files when downloaded from Outlook to Box Drive
Currently when one downloads files from Outlook to box drive on one's laptop/desktop, one has to then go to that folder using file explorer (often several clicks or using the quick access menu) to open the file and then editing it. It would be very useful to have an auto open feature once the file is downloaded. Similar features are already available while using say Gmail on the web browser or even downloading a file from WhatsApp's desktop app.

New Web UI and custom logo
In the old UI, you could use any logo in the top left corner of the screen.
We've been given the answer that the only place we can set a logo is in the top right corner of the screen with the new UI.
However, users are used to the logo being in the top left corner and would like to have the option to place it in the top left.21 votesThank you for your feedback! In an effort to modernize our application, we have made significant updates to our Web product to ensure that we improve our user experience while retaining custom branding for customers. Given that this feedback is related to user preference, we will continue to monitor if users continue to feel strongly about this. At this time, we do not plan to change this experience.

Ability to hide the name of the user who uploaded the document./資料をアップロードしたユーザーの名前を非表示にする機能
Please make it possible to hide the name of the user who uploaded the folder or file.
We would like to be able to customize each folder so that only the owner or co-owner can see the name of the user who uploaded it.(In Japanese)
フォルダやファイルをアップロードしたユーザーの名前を非表示にする事ができるような機能を作ってほしい。
フォルダ単位などで所有者及び共同所有者以外はアップロードをしたユーザーの名前が見えないといったようなカスタマイズができるようにしてほしい。2 votes -
Automatic email response for file request submitter
Would like a feature whereby the person submitting files using Box File Request receives an automatic confirmation email with a customizable message. For example, after the submitter uploads files using the File Request web widget, that person gets a email to the effect of, "Thank you for contacting us. A team member will review your submittal and follow up within 24 hours." The person would be required to provide an email address but not required to have a Box account. Many of our external customers send us application materials using File Request, and then they contact us separately wanting to…

Checking last accessed date and user on folders
Adding a feature where you are able to see the last time a certain folder was accessed along with the name of the person who accessed it. Similar to how it's done with google drive. This will help companies strengthen their security over data shared on Box Drive as this will allow them to keep track of who's accessing the files/folders. Especially when it comes to collaborators and shared links, you will be able to keep track of who has accessed these folders and when.

Thanks for your great suggestion! We know this capability would be hugely valuable. This is not something we’re currently working on, but we’re always considering feedback from customers like you in how we work with Microsoft to enhance secure productivity and collaboration.

I want to change the icon of the Box group.
I want to change the icon of the Box group.
Currently, it is not possible to change the icon of a group.
However, for the following reasons, we would like to be able to change the icon so that we can identify the group in the collaboration list.・To identify special groups used by system administrators.
・In order to avoid confusion among users, it is necessary to be able to identify the system administrator at a glance.【日本語】-------------------------------------------------
現在はグループのアイコンを変更することができません。
しかし下記理由からコラボレーション一覧で、グループの判別ができるように、アイコンの変更ができるようにしてほしいです。
・システム管理者が利用する特殊なグループを識別したいため。
・ユーザが確認するにあたり混乱を招かないよう、一見してシステム管理者として判別できるようにしたい。3 votes -
Jump to the same path on Box Drive directly from Box Web
Like Dropbox app, we would like a capability to move directly from Box Web to Box Drive. The usecase behind this is that we want to edit a file from Box Drive not Box Edit but want to search on Box Web.

Ability to set an expiry date for external collaborators
It would be very helpful to secure access to our files if we were able to set an expiry date when inviting external collaborators to a folder. It seems the only option is to share a link with an expiry date, but that leaves it open for the link to be sent to others and doesn't help if a collaborator needs wider access permissions, or just flag it up as a reminder in our Outlook calendars!

Open Link in New Tab
Really wish the right click in the web page navigation allowed me to open the link in a new tab so I didn't have to navigate back to the beginning every time I want to open a new folder.

invite sharing - save message
When a collaboration invite has been accepted, the "<User> has accepted your invite" message should include the original invite message.
This will remind me why I shared the file with the user and what the user was asked to do with this file.

Open Box Drive in full screen mode
1 - Box Drive Icon on the Task Bar should Open the Box Drive Search Tool, not the Bod Drive Folder in Windows Explorer.
2 - The Box Drive application should open up on full-screen view, with the BOX Folders on the left (as in Windows Explorer) - With the Box Search Tool on the right. This will go a VERY LONG way to help new users to "get comfortable with" / transition to BOX!
