  1. Prevent desktop box folder deletion

    Please create a way to globally disable users the ability to delete folders from their desktop with Box Drive.

    They are under the impression that if they hit "delete" on the folders they are removed from the Projects. This in turn has caused a lot of chaos from team members deleting the entire Project folders instead of going to the Box website and revoking their permissions.

    No amount of training we try do it can solve this with a company our size.

    Team members are deleting terabytes of data and it's exhausting trying to recover all this data.

  2. Install Box Sync on PC using existing Box Sync folder

    You have a published workaround here:

    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043691074-Box-Sync-Displays-Message-Select-Another-Folder-Location-

    This only describes how to download the Box Sync data all over again. I do not have high-speed internet, so this would take weeks to do.

    All I did was change out my storage drive. All of the Box Sync data was copied exactly, so all 50GB of data is still there. I just need to have it see that the files in the current folder are the same (you can use the filename, location, and file size). Syncing the file's timestamp with my PC would be a…

  3. Allow custom logo in Box notifications

    If we upload our logo in our custom branding (enterprise settings > custom set up) it will not show in email notifications sent from Box. Instead, it will show the standard Box logo and colors. White labelling notifications is important to mimic our portal and avoids unnecessary Platform development.

  5. Implementation of Windows standard shortcut keys. Windows標準ショートカットキーの実装

    Please make it possible to use standard Windows shortcut keys in Box as much as possible.
    In particular, the following shortcuts do not work, which makes everyday tasks inconvenient.

    ・F2: Rename
    ・Delete: Delete
    ・Shift+Delete: Permanently delete
    ・Ctrl+Shift+N: Create new folder
    ・Alt+↑: Go up one folder
    ・Alt+→ / Alt+←: Forward / Back (Please function as a history of folder navigation within the Box tab, rather than the browser's general history)

    By implementing standard Windows shortcut keys, users can perform file operations quickly with the keyboard, which will improve work efficiency.

    Box上で、Windows標準のショートカットキーをできる限り利用できるようにしてください。
    特に、以下のショートカットが使用できず、日常的な操作において不便を感じています。

    ・F2:名称変更
    ・Delete:削除
    ・Shift+Delete:完全削除
    ・Ctrl+Shift+N:新規フォルダ作成
    ・Alt+↑:上のフォルダへ移動
    ・Alt+→…

  7. Backup Box Notes

    I would like to have the ability to create a backup of my Box Notes or at least label version history (e.g. add a "v1.2" tag at a certain point in history).

    I have tried using the Copy feature to copy the Box Note, but the copy does not retain the comments, annotations, or history.
    I have tried copying the content into Word to no avail.
    And there is no download button for Box Notes.

  10. Allow Box Drive to be hidden if the computer is being accessed by someone who is not the user (remote login)

    Currently, when an IT admin remotely logs into a user's computer, they can access Box Drive (and therefore all of Box) regardless of permissions, and can even download content to their own desktop. This presents a security risk for companies who allow their IT admins to access users' desktops.

  11. Auto deleting files from my desktop once they are moved into box

    Hi- question on moving files. Say I create a document on my desktop and then drag and drop it into box. The original document on my desktop is not deleted. I would like this to happen automatically so I am not editing the most recent file. Is this an account preference with box or with with my computer?

    Example: I create a document file on my desktop just by opening up a Microsoft Word document. I then finish the document file and drag and drop into my box drive on my hard drive, but the file still exists…

  12. Sync Mac finder tags between users

  15. Gmail - Expose Box Links as Pseudo-Attachments like Drive Links Already Do

    When an email contains a link to a Drive file, Gmail is smart enough to keep that link in the email (of course), but also adds a nice 'attachment' UI element to the bottom of the email to make it easier for 1) the user to know what files are attached (really just linked) in the email at a glance, and 2) easy to click on the right one that they want to see.

    REQUEST: Provide this same UI/UX for Box shared links that are in emails within Gmail too.

    This is feature is available within our Box for Gmail Add-On, where the add-on will detect and expose Box Shared Links in the add-on sidebar (Gmail does not allow third-parties access directly in the email UI)

  16. Do not allow users to complete a system logout or shutdown until all items are uploaded to Box.

    We trying to leverage Box Drive to replace home drives for students. They are using Box Drive in their computer labs, but have recently reported that Box Drive will allow a user to log out (or shut down their computer) before all content has been uploaded to Box. I know we have a dialogue box associated with "in progress uploads" when logging out of the Box Drive application specifically. We are requesting an expansion of that logic to prevent users from completing a system logout or shutdown before Drive has a chance to sync all their files.

  17. Box Sign - Checkbox review NOT required to complete Box Sign request.

    Box Sign - Checkbox not required.

    Today, I have some documents with 40+ checkboxes where in theory none of them have to be checked in order to sign the document. Today, even if I mark the checkbox as "not required," I still have to manually review every single checkbox or else the Box Sign user interface will not let me complete the Box Sign request.

    There should be three options:
    (1) Checkbox required to complete Box Sign request.
    (2) Checkbox review required to complete Box Sign request.
    (3) Checkbox review NOT required…

    Reviewing optional checkboxes is NOT required to complete a Sign request now.

    We will continue exploring and improving checkboxes behavior in the future, for example: saving the checkbox size when preparing a document for senders AND additional setting to require reviewing of optional checkboxes.

    Thank you for the feedback.

    Create a new feature requests if there is something we can do to improve your experience.

  18. Box Sign requests default "my requests" folder

    Box Sign requests default to save into a "my requests" folder for all users. We don't always need the sign request saved into our regular Box folder structure and having a separate place for each user to send their requests to would be more beneficial.

    Box Relay Processing Delay

    Our client experienced significant delay in Box Relay Processing.
    This Relay assigns task to user after previous task was completed, but it took about 3 hous to do that after previous task was completed.
    Although Box Relay is not always processed in real time accourding to the article※1 below, 3 hours delay affects their work efficiency.
    We hope Box Relay be fixed and this problem will be improved.

    Thanks.

  20. Box Status site improvement

    1. Adding status of each region on Box Status site(https://status.box.com/) , because currently an outage impacting only users in a specific zone/region doesn’t appear on the status site. (e.g. customers who are in Asia region are unable to download/upload/preview.)

    2. Clarifying the definition of impact. "Incident Response and Communications" article (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697394-Our-Approach-to-Incident-Response-and-Communications) has the guideline of customer impact. However, definitions and examples of each category are not clear enough.
