We would like to have a setting to control the ability to create shared links in Box Drive.
Currently, users can right-click on content in Box Drive and generate a shared link from the "Share" menu. We need a way to disable this functionality through administrative settings.
When creating a shared link from the web, it is possible to confirm that the shared link has been created by an icon,, however, when creating a shared link from BoxDrive, no icon is displayed, making it impossible to know whether a shared link has been created. Therefore, we want to prohibit creating shared links from BoxDrive.

BoxDriveで共有リンクを作成できないように制御したい
BoxDriveでコンテンツを右クリックし、メニューの「共有」から共有リンクを発行することができるが、これを制御する設定ができるようにしてほしい。
Webから共有リンクを作成する場合は、アイコンによって共有リンクが作成されていることが確認できますが、BoxDriveから共有リンクを作成するとアイコンが表示されず、共有リンクが作成されているかどうかがわからないため、BoxDriveからの共有リンク作成を禁止したい。

About the expiration time of shared links
I would like shared links to be processed at tenant set times.
(For Japan: Links are processed when the date changes at 0:00)テナント設定時刻で共有リンクが処理されるようにしていただきたいです。
（日本の場合：0:00の日付が変わるタイミングでリンクが処理される）1 vote -
"Automated Reports Alert for Open External Shared Links"
Send automated reports to users letting them know when they have open external shared links so they can track and change them as needed.

Ability to have users enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link without being logged in.
In the case of a public shared link, there is no way to verify the user who manipulated the file if it was manipulated while the user was not logged in.
However, we would like to verify by whom the shared file was downloaded.
Since the file sharing partners are unspecified, we would like to share files via a shared link rather than through collaboration.
Request the ability to track the operating user by having them enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link in an un-logged-in state.(日本語)
＜共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際に名前やメールアドレスを入力できる機能＞
「リンクを知っている全員」に設定した共有リンクの場合、未ログイン状態で操作された場合はファイルを操作したユーザーを確認する手段がありません。
しかし、共有したファイルが誰によってダウンロードされているか確認したいと考えています。
ファイルの共有相手は不特定多数のため、コラボレーションではなく共有リンクでファイルを共有したいと考えています。
共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際には名前やメールアドレスを入力させて、操作ユーザーを追える機能をリクエストします。5 votes -
Extend auto collaboration per folders only
Hi team,
Submitting this feature request in behalf of user, requesting to add their visibility to extend auto collaboration per specific folders only.
There's a similar post on this subject, but not exactly the same. We can set an expiration date for external collaborators at the enterprise level, which is essential to security, and should be set as the "default" setting at the enterprise level. However, there are certain circumstances where a folder would need to be shared long term with many people, and the Box owner account should have the ability to do one of two things, or both:

Collaborators Page - Add 'Common Folders' Column Back to Page
In Legacy, the Collaborators page had a column called "Common Folders" that told me (as a user) which folders I was collaborating in with the given user.
In Amsterdam, this column was removed, meaning the page only tells me WHO I'm collaborating with, but not WHERE I'm collaborating with them (aka in which folders)...which makes the page FAR less useful.
REQUEST: Add the 'Common Folders' (or something similar) column back to the Collaborators page so that the page can tell me both
1. Who I'm collaborating with across my entire account
AND
2. Where I'm collaborating with…7 votesInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Dragging files or folders out of BOX makes a copy
With the recent update to BOX Drive, when you move something from BOX to your computer it removes it from BOX. It used to make a copy by default. We use BOX as a shared file server and this change allows for accidental deletion.
Can you please add the ability to make this copy rather than move the file, only when moving out of BOX onto the computer or an outside volume?

I want to search for folders by tag prefixes.
Could you provide an API endpoint that allows searching for folders by tag prefixes? This would streamline the process by eliminating the need to manually retrieve all folders and filter them based on tags.

Create a view of files or folders with unsupported names
Currently: If a file has an unsupported name, it will be listed in Box Drive or Box Sync without their path name. Users will have to manually search for the file which is not feasible if they have thousands of files with unsupported names.
Desired: Create a view of files or folders with unsupported search names in the Box web app to make it easy to rename and removes the process of having to manually search for them.
Nice to Have: Have a button, when clicked, expands to reveal the full path of files or folders with unsupported names

Box Sign - Ability to send templates from All Files
The "Sign - Templates" section in Box used to send templates has a lack of folders and filtering which leads to no ability for us to organize or filter our templates. However the "All Files - (Saved templates folder)" already has the ability to create folders, organize templates and see templates (the blue icon). We would love to be able to send templates with the fields in the document (like in the sign - templates section) from the "All files" folder.

Send Shared Link via Default Email Desktop Application
In shared link pop-up window, include an option to send the link via the default desktop email client instead of through Box. This would open up a new email in their email client with the shared link in the body of the email.
This experience would be similar to the experience of when you click an email address on a website and the default email app on your computer is opened.

Google Workspace - Add Collaborators/Check for Collaborators
The Google Workspace add-on only allows you to create a Shared Link to share files/folders, you cannot add/remove collaborators. It would be great to have the ability to add folks as collaborators, rather than just choosing from Shared Link settings. Additionally, it would be great if when sharing the file it could be recognized that recipients on the email and/or calendar invite do not have existing permissions to the file/folder (similar to what Google does.)

I need to manage collaborators within a Parent folder, can you please enable this feature, many people are using Box drive as a file server and this will help us manage Freelancers very well.

Linked Files and Folders in Box Drive
I'd like to be able to have a folder linked to other folders with the same file so the file can be updated from either location.
For example, there are Client 1 and Client 2 folders each having the same Folder A within them. In Folder A would be File B and if you update File B by going through Client 1 folder, it would be updated the same as if you went through Client 2 folder.

Ability to exclude certain email addresses from accessing public links.
Some links are shared with individuals both in and out of the organization. When the individuals move on, they no longer need access to our folders. It would be great if we could exclude their email addresses from future access.

Reset all existing Open Shared links to "People in the Folder" or "People in the company" via the Box UI
We would like to have a way to set all existing links on our accounts to either "people in the folder" or "people in the company" even when allowing shared links.
At present, we would have to use the API calls below or do it manually:
https://docs.box.com/reference#create-a-shared-link-for-a-file
https://docs.box.com/reference#create-a-shared-link-for-a-folder
This is rather time consuming or impossible for companies who do not know how to use the API
0 votesThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.
