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

Support Emojis in file names
Box currently does not support Emojis in filenames, which means it won't sync if I drag and drop a file from my desktop into Box Drive. It would be great if Box would support the same characters in file names as current OSes

Preview support for PST and MBOX
AS A Box User who accesses pst and mbox files in Box
I WANT to be able to view those files in the Box Preview window
SO THAT I do not have to download the files from Box and open them with another application.BACKGROUND:
1. ATB Financial has completely migrated off of Microsoft Office to GSuite, using Box as our ECM solution.
2. We support our Corporate Investigations, People and Culture, and Legal Services teams with e-discovery requests - specifically gmail and Google Chat exports from Google Vault.
3. Google Vault exports gmail and Google Chat messages in either pst or mbox format (user choice).
4. We share Google Vault exports with our stakeholders using Box. Stakeholders currently have to download the exports from Box and open them with other applications.
5. We have migrated our customer records from Documentum to Box. Migrated customer records include pst files of email interactions with customers. These files must be downloaded from Box to be opened with another application - which is not a desirable user experience.AS A Box User who accesses pst and mbox files in Box

@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

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 by an administrator or auto provisioned though Azure, a confirmation email doesn't seem necessary. Removal of that step, or the ability to turn that off in the Enterprise Settings (for all domain accounts) would be helpful.

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.

Enhance relay feature
Relay limitations:
Not being able to tie outcomes from one flow to other outcomes from other flows all within the same workflow. Dynamically having related outcomes is critical to Relay’s usefulness.
Cascading folder metadata not being brought over when copying a file.
Having a third option for approval tasks (approved with feedback/conditionally approved).

Request for Long-Term-Support (LTS) release for Box Drive
we request for Long-Term-Support (LTS) release for Box Drive.
Currently, box drive is updated too much frequently, therefore it is very impossible for us to upgrade Box drive to latest version in a adequate timing (when we upgrade box drive, it takes long time to validate and install box drive every time).We would like to use box drive as long as possible in the same version: Long-Term-Support (LTS)(We do hope that support term should be at least longer than 6 months) .5 votes -

Shared links without expiration
It takes 6 clicks (unless I'm missing a faster way) to turn off the expiration for a shared link. Can it be on the first pop-up window when you enable the link!?

Include timestamp (start and end) of an activity on report
User wants to know the start and end times when moving files within Box. Since there is no way other than leaving a record of the user starting the process on report, we would like you to add this record for the user activity report.

Admin Console - User File Search - Results Download
Admin Console - Content - User File Search - Results Download enhancement
Allow administrators the ability to download the full user file search from Admin Console -> Content section. The results output would contain all fields present on the current search results page. The output would be in CSV format.
This feature would be useful for eDiscovery purposes.

account switching
Users with multiple Box accounts (e.g., personal, work, etc.) should be able to sign onto all their accounts and be able to quickly switch between the accounts. This could be similar to account switching for Google services, Dropbox, etc. Currently it is very cumbersome to do this. Box has already implemented similar functionality as part of the Box Android app.

Deliver Email Notification with the title including the actual folder on upload.
