  1. Sync between folders within the Duke Box

    In one folder stream is “All Files” “Cholesterol Results” and “2019”. In the second folder stream is “All Files” “HC evaluations” and “2019”. I would like to be able to edit the file “All Files” “Cholesterol Results” and “2019” and have the second file “All Files” “HC evaluations” and “2019” update automatically with the same edits. Even though the files are saved in two locations they have the exact same information in them. Instead of going to two location to made changes; I would like to only make changes to one document and the other one updates automatically.

  2. Recover Deleted Accounts by Co-Admin

    Would love if Box could provide Co-Admins the ability to recover deleted accounts or folder/files from a deleted account within their own tenant without having to raise a support ticket with Box.

    Is there a reason this feature isn't available?

    3. Improved tables -- for ex sorting (nice to have)
    4. Creating timelines (nice to have)

  6. Ability to hide user's edit/upload activity in feed

    Box can only hide user's view activity at this moment. The owner would like to hide these activity from any other collaborator.

  7. When copying a folder with File Requests configured within it, add an option to have the File Request configurations copied as well.

    We have a need to setup folders with File Request features for our customers. When we do this manually, it takes a lot of time to set everything up as we need it. We'd like to be able to copy a folder (along with its subfolders) and its File Request setup. This would make any existing setup, like a template, which we can simply copy and rename in preparation for another customer.

    Currently, we can only copy the folders with or without contents. But either action does not copy the File Request configurations in the source folder.

    Thanks for your…

  8. Admin creates an order for the items in a certain folder and when that folder is shared it stays in that order!

    When an admin (such as myself) creates an order for the items in a certain folder, and then that folder is shared, it should stay in that order! I have been coming into serious issues with this situation and I really would like box to be able to fix the glitch. It is very frustrating and I have called and emailed numerous amounts of times complaining about it and no one has done anything. For example, I was in my own account and had 3 things in one folder labeled Promo, Part 1, and Part 2. It was in the…

  9. Advance warning before password expiry

    Please add advance warning before password expiry.

    As of today, when password expires box disconnects you with no prior warning. Unsaved work may be lost, it may be an inconvenient time to reset password etc.

    It would be helpful if Box sends an advanced notice, allowing the user to reset password several days prior to final expiry .

  10. Threat Detection Reporting

    My customer would like to get a report of the activities that detection rule is processing to ensure that is actually working. They have one rule (suspicious session) that has not generated any hits and thus they don’t know if it’s actually doing anything or not.

  11. disable certain user from viewing a folder without affecting parent folder access permission to an user in BOX

    companies sometime have sensitive folder that only certain people should have access but need to be under a project folder which many other users for organizational reasons.

    sadly box on the web doesn't have the basic function of disabling Inherited Permissions from the parent folder so we can decide who can see the content from a specific folder

  13. @Mention is not valid when you copy and paste from other comment

    I have a monthly report to share with several people and mention them to inform upload. However, every time I copy and paste comment of last time, mention is not valid so that I need to re-type each person's name. I want Mention to be valid even after copy and paste like Slack

  15. Upload all files possible, don't stop the upload queue when an error is encountered

    There was a recent Box change where the upload queue now stops whenever an error, any error, is encountered where, previously, the upload queue would just continue to upload all files possible and the upload queue would remain open so you could scroll through and check which files failed to upload. Now you can't run an upload over night because as soon as one file upload fails, the whole queue stops, which is ridiculous.

  16. Eliminate confirmation email for manually created or provisioned accounts

    We feel that the confirmation email step should not be utilized with accounts that are manually created in the portal or that are auto provisioned from AD. When we create a new account, there is a "delay" with the new email address being propagated and established in our third-party cloud-based email security system. This causes the new email to be added to the hard bounce list at Box due to the email address not being valid (yet). We understand the need for a confirmation email when it comes to an individual user signing up, but if an account is created…

  17. Provide a way to "pause" syncing of files marked for offline

    Allow a use to stop/pause syncing of files that are marked for offline access. We have multiple users who travel and are on metered connections but still need access to the internet and their offline files.

  20. Show all items on All Files page

    Request for showing all files at one page.

    Currently, we can set files/folder for one page from account setting. However, it limits 100 so that over 100 files/folders cannot be shown for only one page. We would like you to add the function to allow the customer to show over 100 files/folders at one page.
