The ability to zoom in on BoxNotes from mobile
When small picture attached in the BoxNotes, user is often not able to see the detail as zoom-in is not supported. I need to go back to my laptop every time and that is inconvenient.

Reconcile behavior between Edit and Drive after a conflict
There is different behavior between Box Drive and Box Edit when uploading after conflicted happened. We would like to change behavior as same as Box Edit. This difference might lead to be confusion for the customer.
Actual Behavior at this moment:
Box Drive
1. User A opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
2. User B opens and edits file X without lock via Box Drive.
3. User B saves the file X via Box Drive. Upload the changes as version 2 to file X
4. User A saves the file X via Box Drive. Conflict happened. Create a conflict copy like file X (email address).
5. User A saves file X again while keeping it open. Upload the changes as version 3 to file XBox Edit
1. User A opens and edits file X without lock via Box Edit.

Provide the ability to customize the message that is sent to workflow participants when starting a Relay workflow.
I have a review workflow that I want to use repeatedly. Each time I start the workflow I have specific instructions that I want the workflow participants to see. This is usually a complete timeline for the review cycle in which the current review might be the first or subsequent steps.
My workaround right now is to send a separate email to the workflow participants, but this means they get 2 emails about the same review.

favorites as a list on the side bar
I am really frustrated that my list of favorites is not along the side bar anymore. The whole point was to limit the number of clicks, and now I have to click twice to see the list again, and it's not along the side but in the center,. Please put the favorites back along the side!

Shared Link Defaults
A way to force reset everyone to the enterprise default for shared link permission level.
+
A setting that would allow only a subset of users to have the broader level of sharing – say there is opt 1 – people in company / opt 2 people in company + invited / opt 3 people in company + invited + anyone with the linkEx. So the enterprise default for all users would be locked down to a max of option 2 (giving users opt 1 & 2 as choices) – we could allow a small subset option 3 (giving them all options)

Box Drive updates should preserve Mac Finder Favorites
I use Favorites in Finder on my Mac to mark folders that I need to access frequently. But, when Box Drive runs and update, my Favorites are all removed. I then need to take time to reestablish all of my favorites. Box Drive should preserve the links in Favorites. This is especially true since Box Drive does not show the favorites marked it the Box webapp.

Assign Relay task to person who completed previous task.
If you create a task and assign it to multiple users, say Tom, Bill and Susan where only 1 person needs to complete it, I want to be able to automatically assign the subsequent task to the person that completed the preceding task. For example, if Susan is the person that completes task 1, I would want the subsequent task to be assigned to Susan only, eliminating Bill and Tom from the process.

Distinguish FTP and FTPS in User Activity Report

buttons move
I like the look of the new UI, but I don't like how the download/delete/copy etc buttons change depending on what is selected. For example: if I select a single file or folder the download button is to the left of the buttons. If I select multiple items, the download is now on the right of the buttons. This has caused me to delete files accidentally because I'm trying to work fast.

It would be good have two people collaborate when both use box drive
Right now, the only way to collaborate is using box drive and MS 365 online-- which has a clunky interface. Would be good to have people working in Box Drive be able to jointly edit documents. Sharepoint Sync allows that to happen, but Box Drive does not.

Classification labels can be configured with "Admin console>Classification".
When the Box administrator clicks on Settings, the following settings are available：

Searching Sub-Folders
We have a user that asked the eblow question. They are referring to Box Drive folders that have been marked for offline use, as well as those in the cloud:
"I would like to see improvements in the Box Search capability within Windows Explorer. You cannot execute a search across sub folders within your Box Drive folder structure, only within the currently viewed folder. If I know what folder a file was in I have eliminated 90% of the reasons I need to search. I get the same search limitations for Cloud based folders and folders saved offline to my desktop.
I understand a search for those saved to my desktop would certainly be easier to program as it could use the native Explorer search in the referenced local drive, but this also does not dig any deeper into the folder structure."

Allow External Collaborators to Search Shared Content for Metadata
If an enterprise shares a folder to outside collaborators, and the content of this folder includes thousands of documents with assigned metadata templates, the external collaborator does not have the ability to filter search that shared content based on the metadata applied.

On PC's there are not many Colour Folder or File Options
Would love for a cross platform of identification of colour coding files and folders. On a Mac unless everything is operating from the same NAS we can see each other's marks. On a PC a lot of apps don't support colour coding for cloud based software which is grinding my gears.
I love that there is now commenting and various ways to communicate. Colour Coding would be a great addition if possible. I mainly use Box Sync/Drive though so this may be a lot more complicated but that would be SUPER APPRECIATED if there was such a feature
