Ability to differentiate where the login took place in reporting
When I run a User Activity report, it shows "Login" attempt but doesn't provide any detail about the login. I would like to be able to differentiate between login locations, e.g., how often are users logging in from mobile apps vs. web. If I could understand any sort of Sync usage, that would be useful too.

Add ability to remove shared content from the All Files page
One of the complaints we've heard from our users is the inability to move shared content to a location other than their All Files page. For users with a lot of shared content this creates folder sprawl. With the new Collections feature we had hoped this would be possible as Collections can be accessed via the left pane.

From Mobile apps, be able to stop autoread to next files
It is when we put several mp3 files into a box folder or share multiple files with others. Then, when accessed these through the box app on a phone .... If we play one, the phone doesn't stop at the end, but goes on to play the next mp3 in the folder or the list of files shared.
Having just that one feature is indesirable. It generates less traffic to the apps and less exposure to Box other services ... I suppose the assumption was possibly for listening to music. But when we share podcasts or voice recordings, the current forced autoread of next goes against needs of single file reading. For exemple, a relaxation for sleep needs to stop there so that users can go to sleep without being back awake by the next recording ...
Now, I have to tell my customers and partners not to use it the apps anymore. We are back to links from which they download.
Whatever the changes made, we just need to be able to read only one file from the Mobile Box Apps for Android or Iphone.

priority
Can we have an option to select or prioritize which comes first and so on. So you can setup a priority of uploads to a level of a single file upload.
Example: have several large files uploading now. and a small file that its not uploading until the large files are done.
If you can right click on the file and set to "urgent" or "push now".

Code scripts in MONOSPACE font type
Hi there,
I have several files, which are coding scripts; they are correctly recognised from browser side (.h, .m, .sh, etc...).
It would be absolutely USEFUL - both for reading and for sharing to my colleagues - to set the font to a MONOSPACE type one; the actual font is NOT GOOD for developers and for a correct viewing of code(s).
Is there any possibility to have this feature ?
Maybe a switch of fonts for single files, or - better - a monospace font associated to file extension(s).Thanks in advance. Giulio Rodonò.

When user share folder/file to group, please be able to use copy and paste.
When user share folder/file to group, please be able to use copy and paste.
When share folder/file to Group, if group name includes "@" and user copy and paste that group name to 'Invite People', it is judged mail address not group name.
So, user cannot invite that group.If user enter group name and select from suggestion, they can invite group normally.

Box Drive can no longer "open on box.com" on Mac
Previously on Box Drive you could right click on a file and choose to be taken to its location on box.com.
Since the latest Mac, the functionality has disappeared, which affects the ease of using integrations with box.

Ability to preview without comments on word file
Currently, Box always shows comments on word file in preview.
This would be a bit hard to see word in preview.
Since Microsoft Word Desktop application allows you to disable comments on view, we would like Box to implement like this feature.8 votes -
Single Pane of Glass for Multitenant Administration
We currently have 3 Box tenants that we are having to support and currently doing so with 3 different sets of accounts/credentials. We would like to be able to see all tenants under one Admin Console and be able to make changes from that one console to all of our Box tenants.
We are also using Okta single sign on all domain joined devices. Users login to their laptop with their primary domain account and are signed in to the primary Box tenant. Users that need to access a different Box tenant are having to user another browser or incognito mode so that they can login to their secondary Box tenant.
Is there an easy way to lift and shift secondary tenant data to our primary Box tenant so that users can access their Box data with Okta single sign on? It is required that the users retain their branding/logo of their current tenant.

Sign in with Google Across the Platform
Sign in options are inconsistent across the Box platform. If SAML/SSO or Sign in with Google is set up with an account, it should always be accessible in any place any user attempts to authenticate. I had an account without a password created via the Sign in with Google process and this meant there was one less password floating out there for account access. In order to sign in in certain parts of box.com or in Box Drive, I am required to set a password.

can_view_path not reflecting in Box Drive
We are utilizing the canviewpath api so whenever a folder is collaborated on this feature gets enabled. So rather than a user seeing just the folder they were collaborated in on their root level, they get to see the entire folder structure of where that folder exists. When this feature gets enabled it reflects immediately in the Box web app and the Box mobile app, but not in Box Drive. Sometimes it can takes days before the change takes effect. So during that time the folder is not available to the user in Box Drive. The only fixes we have found are if you use the Box Drive search and then click "Open Containing Folder" for that particular folder or log out of Box Drive. Both of these are not ideal. We would like to have Box Drive reflect the changes without any user intervention.

Set a password for the "People in Company" shared link.
"People with the link" shared links can be set a password.
We want to use this for "People in Company" as well.Some companies also require you to set a password when sharing items to company users.
We believe that this feature will allow us to utilize Box even more.「リンクを知っている全員」の共有リンクには、パスワードを設定できます。
これを「会社のユーザー」にも設定したい。会社によっては、会社のユーザーとアイテムを共有するときにパスワードを設定する必要があります。
この機能により、Boxをさらに活用できると確信しています。3 votes -
Make it possible to change or remove multiple people's permissions on a folder all at hte same time. I
Currently, if you want to change or remove the permissions of collaborators, you need to do it individually, and it takes 3-5 clicks/person. It would be great if there was a checkbox and you could click or unclick those you wanted to remove from collaborating. Alternately, it would be even better if the the folder could be moved to an archive which would automatically remove permissions.
