  1. Add ability to manage tags

    Admins need a way to mass edit tags. Sometimes people misspell tags when they're adding them, or sometimes an entire tag itself needs to change completely, and everything that has that tag should be updated. (Check out how Zenhub handles tags for inspiration!)

  2. Allow the use of Linux devices as approved devices.

    We had Linux based user using Box web console and as of the July update, they are no longer able to access Box. I would like to see Linx OS be added to the approved Operating Systems list in the Admin Console for enterprise settings.

  3. Not have to manually focus box drive search

    With Box Drive, it used to be that when I press ctrl-alt-shift-b, I'd get the box popup with the search field focused with the cursor at the end of the last search I did.
    Something's changed that now the input field is no longer focused. Now I have to click on it to type.
    It used to be that I had to shift-home, backspace and then I could type a new search.
    Best case scenario is that the search field should already be focused with the text highlighted so that I can immediately type or press enter repeat the last…

  4. The search tool could look up for specific words/sentences inside documents.

    When we need to search for a specific word/sentence inside a document, the search tool does not show any results. It is only searching for the word/sentence on the title of the document.
    It would be very helpful if it could search inside the documents and also bring it as a result.

  5. Custom app to pull Access Stats on files/folders without admin privileges

    Goal: Obtain access statistics on files/folders via custom app with no admin privileges

    We have an enterprise app that manages one of our Box folders - i.e. the app is owner of the folder while most collaborators are just editors and some co-owners. Moreover, we have the 'hidden collaborators' setting enabled, which means that only owner and co-owners can view 'Access stats' in the browser. For other collaborators (being Editors) to view access stats, we would then pull the stats via the Box API - e.g. using the events endpoint. With our enterprise Box instance, however, we do not have…

  6. About character limit of "description" of file property

    Please increase the amount of text you can write in the "description" in the file properties.
    I want to add a long description, but it is inconvenient because of the character limit.

  8. Add "Edit" permission to shared link options

    We needs to share a link of many Word documents in Box with a large number of people, problem is we can't make it editable to the people who have the link. (only view and download or View only)

    would be awesome to have this option !

  9. GET RID OF PAGINATION!

    We constantly have people unable to find files on Box because they're located on the second (or later) pages in the folder.

    It's completely pointless and an unusual user experience for online file storage.

  12. Enable shared link expiration notifications for user that enabled the shared link

    For a closed folder structure, where the primary admin owns all content, Box should give the ability to 1) disable shared link expiration notifications for folder owners and 2) enable them specifically for the users that created the shared link to begin with.

    Even if the former will not be changed, the latter behavior would be important for a closed folder structure.

  14. Adjust "arrow" to forward to next document when viewing a document it conflicts with the scroll bar when viewing an existing document

    The arrow that you click to forward to the next document overlaps the scroll bar for the existing document. This impacts the ability to scroll up and down on the existing document. Please adjust the placement so the arrow doesn't overlap the scroll bar.

  15. Email notification for new reports available in My Box Reports Folder

    Please add a new feature to enable email notifications when Box reports I request becomes available in My Box Reports folder. I find that some reports may take several hours to run, specifically the Files and Folders report, and I need to constantly check refreshing the page to see if the report has been uploaded.

  16. So we used a password on a shared link that contains a greater than symbol and the link does not work

    If you create a shared link with a password that contains a greater than symbol > it will not work.
    Such as:
    T^>&4zjbFzV

    At the very least they should make it so that when you try to save a password with that symbol it throws an error right there on the form.

    Thanks

  20. Ability to create an index of a folder structure

    1) A way to create an index of a folder structure to make it easier for outside collaborators to get an idea of whats down the folder tree. We’re looking for some sort of index (like a table of contents) in an orderly fashion for a particular set of folders. I ran a files and folders report but as just an excel sheet it was relatively useless as a table of contents

    2) A way to schedule a report to run daily or weekly
