File Picker utilizing mobile deep link for Box iOS/Android App
Dropbox has a library called Chooser, which makes it easy to select files in Dropbox from custom Mobile apps. ( https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser#ios )
Dropbox Chooser uses mobile deep link bidirectionally to move between a custom app and the Dropbox app. As for Box app, mobile deep link is one-way; the Box app can be opened but it is not possible to select files and go back to the custom app.
The major advantages of using Dropbox Chooser for service providers are as follows.
- No need to make additional UI for the file chooser
- No need to authenticate or handle…1 vote -
Public Shared links - admin console ability to add password protection
I think along with the capability of adding an overall expiration date to Public shared links within the admin console, the ability to enforce password protection or even a verification code would also help a lot in locking down the possibility of information getting into the wrong hands.
So if i received the public link before opening it I somehow either have been provided a password or another idea you make the requester enter a mobile/email to send a once off pin code to allow them to access it.

Right now, Box's search engine is kinda useless
So, i contacted Box through chat to ask why the search engine wasn't looking for the specific input i searched for, and among other things i was told that the engine will look for files/folders which match ANY of the words in your input and has no capability of looking for files containing ALL of the words searched for which most search engine have, be it web search or OS search.
So, here's the problem, we have around 10.000 files uploaded to box, and lots of them share several words which indicate the client's name or what the file contains.…

Bookmark: Add, Delete and or Edit in bulk.
Bookmarks: Add, Delete and or Edit in bulk.
Every folder(thousands) of ours has a bookmark to a google doc we all read. We recently changed the url (location) of that bookmark. We are unable to mass add, delete or edit that bookmark to all files in bulk. Now every file has no access to the new bookmark and has an old one that doesn't work.

Open Shared Link Admin
On the "My Account" in the Web App, I would like to see a list of all open shared links created and owned by my account in Box. I'd like to be able to delete the shared link or change its settings, from Everyone with the Link to Company & Collaborator for example. This feature will enable users to have greater insight into what they have shared and what risk this may represent to their organisations.

Restrict assigning higher level permissions to external users
we would like a control to restrict external users from having anything above a set permission level.
It would also be great if we could review on one screen, external users to see what permission levels is assigned

Backups
It would be very helpful if there was a way to automatically back up all my files on Box.com into a different Box account or possibly onto another site or server somewhere.
I say this because I would like to give certain employees the ability to delete so they can reorganize my files, but I'm concerned that some day someone will somehow accidentally delete all my files. It would be nice to have period backups that I could rely on automatically.

New role that can be changing other collaborator role but doesn't have right to do new invite.
Would like to a user role that cannot add collaborators but can change the privileges of each collaborator who has already collaborated, it is not possible to invite new users, but a user who can change existing roles is possible.
Allow more granular permission collaboration.1 vote -
Relay/task push notification on Mobile app
We are currently evaluating Relay so notifications on Mobile will be important for making Relay a viable solution (and will certainly make regular comments/tasks easier to access).

Go directly to the folder in Explorer/Finder
A one-click solution that takes me from a specific Box location in the web browser to the same location in Windows Explorer on my computer.
Essentially, the opposite of "View on Box.com" Windows Explorer feature.47 votes -
Custom Terms of Service - Prompting External users to accept terms after change to terms
It has been noted that if the text of theCustom Terms of Service is changed for internal users, internal users are prompted to re-accept the new terms. However for external users, if the text of the terms is changed, the external users is not prompted to accept the new terms until they are invited to a new folder. Can the external users be prompted to accept the new terms once the text is changed?

Extend expiration dates to be shown in their user activity reports
For external collaborations, it shows the date the collaboration is going to end when it's first set in the user activity to report as
-Action: Collaboration expiration
-Details: To: YYYY-MM-DDHowever when you extend this period, the "To: YYYY-MM-DD" isn't displayed so you don't know until when it's extended until unless you go the individual folder/file itself and look at the "clock" mark manually.
In the report
-Action: Extend collaborator expiration
-Details: [Blank]The customer wants to have a grasp of each expiration dates so they're saying looking at each item manually on Box is impractical.
