Quickly get a list of folders with NO collaboratoins
We have a few hundred abandoned/orphaned folders from people who left the enterprise, but did not transfer ownership of files. The folders were not deleted when the accounts were deleted. I could quickly delete quite a few of them if there are no collaborations--going by the logic that if there are no collaborations, there is nothing important in them and could easily be deleted since no one has missed the data for several years.

Actions to make documents and folders (box drive, 'Make Available Offline' ) appear in reports as Downloads - same as normal downloads
When identifying anomolous downloads (ie potential data leakage), we utilise both Box Shield alerts and User Activity reports to establish details.
However, User Activity reports (csv, column E 'Action') do not differentiate between those documents and folders downloaded, and those that are 'Made Available Offline'. When attempting to avoid data leakage, the difference is important. Making content available offline is a legitimate task for users. However, large quantities of normal downloads may indicate fraudulent theft of data.
We need to be able to differentiate between the two types, as soon as possible
Because User Activity Reports record items as 'Download'…

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.

Downloading from a Shared Link has a confusing UX message (Modal)
The "Download in Progress" modal window displays only a "Signup" and "Log In" buttons when downloading files from a shared link. Those buttons and the fact that the modal window must be manually closed even after the download is complete is poor UX and confuses users into thinking they must create an account to successfully download images.
Our IT department receives multiple tickets from confused users.

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.

Ability to change file/folder name rich text
It would be lovely if a user could change the font/color/bold/underline on file and folder names.
We have a scenario where we are going to "archive" certain shared folders and lump them under a single folder but it would be nice if we could change the color of the text of the folder name to say red and maybe make it bold. It would stand out in the list of all folders in the root.2 votes -
Bulk Add someone as a co-owner to existing folders
Make a way to bulk add someone to multiple existing folders in Box as a co-owner. This stems from if you want to make someone a co-admin so they can assist with existing folder creation/access for newer employees of your company you would have to add them to a folder individually to achieve this. If you have many folders this would take a long time as a manual process so a bulk add would make it that easier to do.

Add view-only open shared link to view workflow
We want this to share for auditing purposes, as the shared link only works for people that are part of the workflow.

Bug: Box AI for Hubs citation links redirect to Hub shared link instead of direct file URLs
There is an issue in Box AI for Hubs where the citation links (e.g., [1], [2]) in AI responses fail to lead directly to the source files. Instead of pointing to the specific file's accurate URL, the links incorrectly direct users to the Hub's overall shared link URL, preventing users from accessing the referenced file.
This bug occurs frequently, especially when a Hub is shared with other users via a shared link.＜Requested Enhancement / Expected Behavior:＞
Please fix this behavior so that citation links in Box AI for Hubs always direct users to the exact URL of the referenced…1 vote -
Revert UX for creating folders
Hi, I was wondering if we could revert the workflow for creating folders. There was a recent UI/UX update last week that changed my Box such that when I create a folder, it doesn't auto-populate my cursor in the "Name" field, and after typing the name of the folder, pressing enter does not create the folder.
It was very smooth when I was able to click "new folder," immediately type the name of my folder, and then press enter to immediately create it. Now, I have to either click the "name" field directly or press tab before I'm able…

invite sharing - save message
When a collaboration invite has been accepted, the "<User> has accepted your invite" message should include the original invite message.
This will remind me why I shared the file with the user and what the user was asked to do with this file.

Request for Additional Configurable Shared Link Types
Currently, there are three types of Shared Links: [People with the link, people in your company, and people in this folder], but I’d like to see more granular options.
I’d like a feature that allows me to specify a domain for internal users so that only users from that domain can access the folder.タイトル：
設定可能な共有リンクの種類を増やしてほしい
本文：
現在の共有リンクは[リンクを知っている全員、会社のユーザー、このフォルダ内のユーザー] の3種類ですが、もっと細分化してほしいです。
社内ユーザーのドメインを指定し、そのドメインのみアクセス可能といった機能が欲しいです。1 vote -
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.

Password protected folders - systems allows setting password not meeting log-in criteria
When I set shared link with customer, I generate password for him and send it to him so he can access the folder. System allows me to create password which is not accepted by the system when the customer wants to sign in! That is very embarrasing.
For example today I created shared folder, made a password (long enough, but containg only one number) and sent it to the customer to cooperate. System allowed me to set the password, but when the customer wanted to access the folder, he had to use the password but it was not accepted because…2 votes -
Custom scope feature for Shared Links
We would like to request the addition of a feature that allows content sharing to be set narrower than "company users" and broader than "invited users only" in "Enterprise Settings" using groups.
As a result, in organizations such as educational institutions where customers such as children, pupils, and students exist within the same tenant, it will be possible to guarantee the fairness of sharing safely within a limited range without collaboration.

Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content
Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.

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.
