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 -

Shared link works on desktop but fails on mobile
I received a Box link from a contact in the form https://app.box.com/s/[string]/folder/[string]. Clicking this link in iOS Mail app opened a Box web page in Safari with the message "This shared file or folder has been removed." I tried to resolve this by installing the Box app. Clicking the link now opened the Box app with a message telling me I must log in to access my content. This would not be possible for recipients without a Box account.
In macOS Mail, clicking the link opened a Box web page in Safari correctly listing the shared files. Without logging…

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.

Allow Users and Admins to set folders to be excluded from search results
It would be useful if Administrators had the ability to set folders to be excluded from Search results by default. For example, if a folder is used for historical archive purposes it might not be relevant for the majority of searches, but inclusion in search results will make it harder to find what the user is actually looking for. It would also be useful if users could do this for their own accounts as well.
One possible method of implementation is to add a Tag called "Archive" (or something similar) to folders that Users and/or Admins can set to exclude…

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.

Automate email address for box folders
Our system automatically creates a box folders for each opportunity. In order to create an email for the folder we have to manually go into setting and create the email.
Can we have an option in the admin console to automate this?

Email Notification for moved folders incorrect
We are seeing situation where a email message is generated indicating a folder has been deleted when a collaborator moves it out of the Owner's folder. The email contains a link to the owner's trash folder that results in an error message if you try to follow it.
Here is the setup.
User A - Creates a folder that contains sub-folders and files.
User A - Invites User B as an Editor on the root folder.
User B - Moves one of the sub-folder in the shared folder to another location in their own Box account.
User A -…1 vote -
Allow inheritance in folder structure
Windows allows for folders to enable or disable inheritance from Parent folder to Child folders. This is needed in BOX so collaborators who don't need access or shouldn't have access to certain Child folders within a Parent folder can still navigate where access is needed and not expose sensitive data.

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.

Metadata triggers without folder specification
--I want Box Relay to be able to kick workstreams off in sub-folders that don't exist yet. We have a general "Accounts" folder, and I want my metadata tag triggers to affect sub folders in that parent folder. However, the metadata trigger requires me to specify which specific folder to trigger the Relay within. I suggest one of two things:
1. Remove the need for folder specification. If I have a metadata trigger, do I really need to specify the folder in which the content lives? Relay should scan for that metadata tag, wherever it occurs.
2. Allow for…16 votesThanks for your feedback. We’re exploring introducing new cascading triggers or system-wide workflows which would address this issue.

Selecting approvers and move destination folders of outcomes dynamically
I got a request from my business partners that it might be very nice for them to be able to select approvers and move destination folders of each outcome dynamically.
They feel inconvenience to create Relay flows as the sames number of external collaboration folders of every company.1 vote -

Move "Log in" green banner when viewing shared link while not signed into Box
If you view a shared link while you're not signed into Box, you'll see a green banner at the top: "Log in to Box to securely share, edit, and collaborate on files in real-time with other people." The banner blocks the "Download" button on the right. While there is an X to close the banner, there are two issues:
1) Less tech-savvy people don't know to close the banner and can't figure out how to download
2) Others may think you need a Box account in order to access the contentIt would be helpful to either move the banner…
