create folder
Can we create a new folder that way we can organize documents we upload onto BOX? like if i have a bunch of pictures from a specific vacation, and other pictures from other vacations, i'd rather each picture be in specific folders rather than all over the place and i have to guess when and where the picture or file is and where it belongs to.
thanks

Shared link works on desktop but fails on mobile
I received a Box link from a contact in the form https://app.box.com/s/[string]/folder/[string]. Clicking this link in iOS Mail app opened a Box web page in Safari with the message "This shared file or folder has been removed." I tried to resolve this by installing the Box app. Clicking the link now opened the Box app with a message telling me I must log in to access my content. This would not be possible for recipients without a Box account.
In macOS Mail, clicking the link opened a Box web page in Safari correctly listing the shared files. Without logging in, I was immediately able to download them.
The desktop behaviour is what my contact would have expected. She was using Box to share files with me as an unknown new contact. The result on mobile looked unprofessional because she seemed to have sent a broken link. If I hadn't checked on desktop, I would have looked unprofessional by replying to this effect, when in fact the link was correct but the behaviour of the Box site and app on mobile was non-functional.
Is this the intended behaviour? Were we doing something wrong? How would we know?

BOX should give us more options to work with subfolder access
When you give the Viewer access to a group of people in the root of a structure, you could work with subfolders by 1) removing some people from access specific subfolders or 2) changing the type of access specific person would have. For example,
1) I have specific content that should be restricted but need to manage it in a single place. If I try to remove a person from a subfolder, it will remove this person from the whole structure.
2) I can create a root folder called "Teams" and give everyone the viewer access to it (since the content has to be shared) but then, I would like the leader of Marketing team having editor access to his/her folder since this person will be in charge to feed the content. I'm not able just to change his/her access from Viewer to Editor in that specific folder rather than I send him/her a new invitation. It would be simpler if I just change the type of access in that folder.When you give the Viewer access to a group of people in the root of a structure, you could work with subfolders by 1) removing some people from access specific subfolders or 2) changing the type of access specific person would have.

Ability to run relay workflows as a group
Relay workflows and approval tasks are started and sent as the user that created the relay. Ideally you want to get the box approval task that is sent to the users to approve to look like it is coming from the team that is requesting the approval.
Example: Invoice approval
When an invoice approval relay starts, pick dept. from metadata and start an approval process to the appropriate user as defined in the workflow. The user gets an email that says 'boxadmin' (in out case the user that created the relay) has sent you an approval task.It would be better to have a senario whereby you could select the 'from' of the approval task creation to be from one of the security 'Groups' in Box. Therefore you could then get an email to say.

Separate color or icon for user-owned folder
When browsing user content in the admin console, I often need to determine which folders are owned by the user whose content I'm viewing. If there were a separate color or icon for folders that the current user owns, I wouldn't have to open every collaborated folder to check ownership.
This could also help users delineate which folders they own and which are owned by others. It would be a big help with communicating best practices around folder ownership.
