  1. Ability to change the destination of Microsoft Teams Chat Files to any other Box folder

    We would like to be able to change the destination of Microsoft Teams Chat Files to any folder.

  3. Select multiple files to copy in a relay

    I would like to be able to select multiple files to copy in a relay at least if they're in the same folder so that I don't have to do each individually

  4. Rotate PDF files within Box Sign

    There is currently a feature request that is labelled as on the roadmap to be able to rotate/zoom PDFs in Box Preview. We are requesting that this feature also be implemented in Box Sign as it is a pain to have to open PDF files in Acrobat to just rotate them, then save them, then upload to Box Sign.

  5. Viewing PPTX files via web browser

    There is a pretty glaring glitch with the Web App when viewing PPTX files. It will repaginate the slides. Example, if your cover slide starts at 0, the Box Web App will repaginate the slides starting at 1, which can be confusing to people when trying to reference a specific slide. Once you download the file, then the pagination goes back to normal.

    I'm hoping this gets fixed in an update.

  6. Better rendering of Excel files in EMM

    Word and PowerPoint are basically rendered as PDFs or PostScript files (rather than using iOS built-in quick rendering engine, which does not display formatting and charts well).

    Excel files are still rendered using the iOS engine, which often leaves out crucial charts and doesn't reproduce frozen panes, which are needed to show large Excel files in a more manageable format.

  7. Transfer ownership of a file

    I was blown away that I can't change the ownership of "files", only folders. We have a user that retired and we need to transfer ownership of all her content to other employees (not just a single employee). Transferring ownership of a "folder" is easy and straightforward.

    Box has a limitation that prevents you from transferring ownership of an individual file. This user has about 40 files at their root of her account (under All Files). The only way to change ownership is to move the file into a folder and then share and change the ownership…

  8. Increased file limit for Box AI for Hubs

    Currently, Box AI for Hubs is limited to 10,000 files per hub and 1,000,000 files combined across all hubs in an tenant.
    For use cases such as distributing hubs on a departmental basis, this number is low, so we would like the limit to be relaxed.

    Box AI for Hubsのファイル数制限を緩和してほしい

    現在Box AI for Hubsを利用するには、1つのHubで10,000ファイル、テナント内すべてのHubで合計1,000,000ファイルまでが上限となっています。
    部署単位でHubを配るといったユースケースでは、この数値では少ないため制限を緩和してほしい。

  9. Disable email upload notification for users who are uploading the files

    We are using Box Email feature to collect all attachments from the important thread. Box sends notification after succesful upload for EACH file. Sometimes company logo in the signature is also treated as an attachment. The end result is too many emails from box.
    It will be better to turn off this feature at the folder level. If folder to which the attachments get delivered could select to turn off the notifications, it would be greatly appriciated.

  10. Include Path Collection in the result of Event API

    Event API does not include the path collection for updated files. Thus, to get the updated files, another File Info API should be called.
    This situation increases the number of API calls and causes the complexity of the client program and the performance issue.
    Could you include the path collection in Event API results?

  11. Edit Locked files when Co-Authoring is turned on by the user trying to edit

    Our workflow uses both coauthoring and often requires locking files to prevent others from editing while in use. The new coauthoring with Office locks out the user that is trying to edit the file. It would be nice to be able to use both when needed. Now, if a user tries to lock a file to prevent access to it while editing, that same user that locked the file is prevented from editing it. Or maybe add an additional option to edit and lock.

  13. Show All Files instead of current folder during Move/Copy

    Our end users have been complaining about the recent change to the move/copy functionality. Previously, when you would click move/copy, it would take you to the all files display. Now it takes you to the folder you are already in, which they say is counterintuitive. These users are moving hundreds of files a day and are unhappy about extra step/click needed now.

  14. Limit large files to desktop viewing only

    Really large files should not be shown on mobile device and so we'd like to inhibit people from being able to see it.

    Large files 100+ Gig, ‘rushes’ from ad shoots moved in disk, genomics files at academia,… must solve user experience issue with mobile/web – we want to be able to classify that content as desktop only.

  15. Add Timestamp to Files and Folder Tree Report

    The Files and Folder Tree report in the Admin Console only displays the date for content created/modified, etc. It'd be helpful to include the full timestamp in the date field.

  16. Sort or filter files in a folder by the presence or absence of comments.

  17. Syncing files and having them download to devices automatically

    Create a setting in Box Drive so that files, once updated, automatically sync and download to all devices for use offline. Now, we have to designate each folder for "use offline." Why not have a setting that allows us to make that the default (so it functions like Box Sync)? As it now stands, I'd have to know in advance which files I might use on a flight, if I'm traveling with a different computer. That's a pain.

  18. Make Box Drive Mark for Offline (MFO) file accessible when Box Drive not running

    Would like for files in Box Drive that are marked for offline (MFO) to be accessible whether or not Box Drive is currently running (e.g. before Box Drive starts up at login). Currently, offline files are only available after the Box Drive software has loaded -- this poses a problem for files that need to be available at user login time like the user profile files (Desktop/Documents/etc.). Box Sync worked fine for this purpose, but Box Drive MFO does not.

  19. Box Tools - Excel as default application for CSV and XLS

    We would like Box Edit to have Excel as the default application for all excel files, including CSV.

    Right now we run into an issue with CSV files where it is necessary to perform an operation to copy and then paste to Excel from Notepad. (Since opening CSV files might cause garble due to a character code (UTF-8), we are opening Notepad first and then open Excel files)
    Another workaround would be editing the registry which is risky and inconvenient - which is why we would like Edit to automatically open CSV with Excel as the default

    We don’t plan to implement this exception in Box Tools. However, we’re working on a related solution: the ability to open files in Finder/Explorer via Box Drive, where you can then choose to open them with a different app. Stay tuned for updates.

  20. Allowing "Viewers" to download excel files with a watermark

    People granted "Viewer" permissions should be able to download excel files with a watermark, rather than only being able to download a watermarked PDF version
