File Request Scripting
Customer would like to use File Request instead of FTP, however, there is no way to script a automatic process to upload via file request.
We have a vendor that needs to upload files to us. They have an automated/scripted process using FTP so wanted to know if there was a way to do the same via File Request, otherwise it would be a manual process.

Share Modal
The dropdown when you click a Share button to invite someone displays the permission descriptions. The dropdown when you click the person already in a folder does not. It would be nice to have consistency across the UI. Anytime a collaborator appear listed and I click on their permissions, it should include the fin text explaining what each permissions allows them to do.

Provide an 'Email shared link' button, prominent in the UI like it used to be
2 votesThanks for the feedback. Decluttering the top action bar and leaving the top user actions is one of the major goal of our new UI. Currently, you can click on the “Share” button for the file, and the “Email” icon within the share window.

Tags shortcut removed in new UI
I am requesting a feature that was already present in the old UI. I worked with support to determine that feature has been eliminated. There was a shortcut in the top right where you could quickly add tags. That feature is now gone in the new UI. Some of our users used that button heavily. Now we are forced to use the more options, or right click which is a couple more steps, each time the user wants to mark a file as read.
Also, there was a button at the top that allowed you to move files to a new location. This button has also been removed in the new UI update.
It would be great if we had the option to bring these features back as they were part of our work flow.

I’m uploading a large directory tree with Box Drive, and I’d like to know the status of the files being transferred. I’ve been reading about this in the support area of their web site.
From the Box website, it appears that the way to do this is by looking at icons next to files which change color.
There are two issues with this:
I am blind and use screen reading software that can’t distinguish icons. The Box people need to know about this accessibility problem.
I’d rather have an overall report. But there’s nothing available in the Box Drive UI.I’m uploading a large directory tree with Box Drive, and I’d like to know the status of the files being transferred. I’ve been reading about this in the support area of their web site.

Report Data by Zone - Very Helpful for GDPR
Allow admins the ability to run reports and show data residency by zone. So if I was looking to run a report on a specific folder I could essential get information such as:
File\Folder Name
Uploaded\Created Date
Owner
Storage Location (US, Ireland \Germany, Japan)5 votes -
Increased accessibility of upload status of a file for visually impaired users
Currently, in Box Drive the only way to check the upload status of a file/folder is to check the folder/file icons. There is currently no way for visually impaired users to check the current status of an upload, or check the status of content being Marked for Offline, since this functionality also relies on the folder/file icons for this information.
Box should consider a solution to this that would better serve visually impaired and blind users

Ability to start 'manual start' workflows at levels other than editor
It would be great for the workflow owner to be able to set a lower level of permission to be able to kick of certain manual start workflows. The use case is that a client has a bunch of reference documents that they don't want their general audience to be able to download or edit, but still want them to be able to request changes to be made as part of a formalised process. At present those people can still annotate and comment, but the team making the changes can't track what's being asked, and so have to manually keep on top of the documents.
