  1. Copy All Folder Settings when copying a Folder

    When copying a folder, all folder settings should be copied over as well (or have the option to do so). As is, some settings do copy over while others don't. For example:

    Can Copy: Restrict Collaboration to within ETF, Disable Commenting, Shared Link Access, Watermarking, Uploading (Overwrite files) and Email notifications
    Won't Copy: Only Folder owners and co-owners can send collab invites, Hide Collaborators, Allow Uploads to this folder

    This would be especially useful when copying a template folder with a folder structure that needs the same settings when copied for a new project/customer/etc.

  2. In Webapp Search filtering - add multi-select for file type filtering or add an option to exclude folders

    During searches, returns can include both Files as well as Folders, which adds to the search return clutter. Customer would like a way to filter out all folders results.
    This could be done through adding multi-select to file types filter or adding a folders type exclusion.

  5. Secure open link - Domain white list for open shared link

    This request is an idea that will become possible after the following requests are realized.
    Secure open link① - Require email address verification with one-time password
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/43755942-secure-open-link-require-email-address-verifica

    【Summary】
    Please add "Allow only email addresses from specific domains to receive one-time passwords" to the Open Link settings.
    This will make it possible to prevent secondary distribution and miscommunication, which is a huge issue for Open Link.

    【Issues to be solved】
    Current Open Link is not secure enough as an alternative to attachments.
    Compared to attachments, the ability to determine the information of the access source and the ability to block access…

  6. Ability to 'select all' or 'multi-select' items for moving between folders

    Same as the title says: ability to 'select all' or 'multi-select' items for moving between folders. Why can't I select multiple files via a menu option, drag and drop, or any other method beside individually clicking every single item.

  7. Set Custom Time for File Request or Shared Link expiration

    Have the ability to set an expiration time in the Web App on the Box File Request. The use case is a submission use case where the need is to have uploads shut off at 3pm vs the default of 11:59pm. The ability to set a different time can only be done at the API/CLI level for the Shared Link only and not the File Request. In addition, you can not set a time within the WebApp for either. This functionality could be extended to other use cases with collaborator access shut off at a specific time of day.

  8. adding code to end of URL so content displays expanded automatically when a folder link is shared.

    Can you add some sort of feature so that we can control how content in folders display when we share folder links? Right now, content automatically displays in a list view and then you can zoom in to show a larger/expanded view of content.

    Can you make it so that we can add code to the end of the url link that will make the content display in the expanded view automatically? Or is there another way to change the preferences so that when we share folder links it automatically displays the content expanded?

    Thanks!

  9. Add "Copy file" and "Copy shared link" to the horizontal bar in Box preview

    When I get shared links for which I want to reuse to create my own decks I have to download the file , make changes and upload it back. Would be convenient for the user to just "copy" the file because at that point they had download rights anyways

    When I get shared links and I want to share the file further its not clear to me that I could copy the same url and send it ahead. Some users end up downloading the file in order to share further which leads to data fragmentation

  11. Increase the maximum number of Shield Classifications beyond 25 so that we can classify each clients content to prevent mis-sharing

    I would like to see the ability to add Shield Classifications per client - with the appropriate access policy (restricting to client email domain) we could avoid any possibility to overshare when inviting the wrong clients into a folder or sharing a shared link - There is a maximum number of classifications of 25 so could this be extended to facilitate this use case/control.

  12. Adding direct links dialog to the shared links dialog popup

    There really needs to be a way that the direct links dialog could be moved to the Shared Links dialog box so that you don't have to have multiple click to just to get a direct link to an image file. At the current time, it's a lengthy process to create direct image links. See the attached files and please fix this!

  13. Prevent Users from navigating to other folders when using Salesforce

    Currently the Box for Salesforce integration utilizes a simple embed widget, which allows a user to navigate out of the associated Box folder to other areas of their Box account, all while still in the same Salesforce case. This is a security and use concern for some customers as files can be accidentally uploaded to folders not related to the current case. From a UI perspective, simply taking away the file path buttons would get the job done.

    Delivered in Box for Salesforce v4.59. This setting can be found under Box Settings>Advanced Setup>Mapping and Folder Customization. https://support.box.com/hc/articles/33944755044115-Box-for-Salesforce-Release-Notes-v4-59

  14. Add "Do not notify" to "Share this folder" dialog box

    When inviting users to collaborate in a folder, it would be helpful to add a check box to Not Notify the users.

    Larger folders can cause a lot of noise as users are added to a folder.
    There are times the collaborators may need to be removed, then re-added to a folder - this generates confusing emails.

  15. Unify the operation when tapping a shared link on a mobile terminal.

    When you tap the shared link pasted in an email etc.
    I currently understand that the behavior will be as follows.

    ・ When you tap the "Move to folder" button in the invitation email
    ➩ The browser login screen is displayed

    ・ When you tap the shared link of "Company user" or "Invited user" in the email
    ➩ Asked if you want to open it with the app

    ・ When you tap the "everyone who knows the link" shared link in the email
    ➩ The file is displayed on m.box.com

    Please change this operation so that it becomes the following…

  16. Drag and drop files or use file ID or folder ID

    When you want to add single files or folders, it would be great to be able to add them simply using their IDs or dragging them from another Box window

  17. Enable ability to hide files or folders in my All Files view

    Enable ability to hide files or folders in my All Files view.

    These files and folders would still be searchable via the search bar, but they would be hidden from All Files.

    Also include the ability to review all files and folders that I've previously hidden in a separate "Hidden" tab, similar to how there is a "Recents" tab and "Notes" tab.

  18. Would like a feature that boilerplate to the message box of Send Shared Link

    For example, the customer usually uses shared link with Send Shared Link.
    However, the customer sometimes faces insufficient information.
    So, he thinks he can prevent it if this feature is implemented.

  20. Flag mutliple folders for Offline User

    Currently, in order to mark a folder/file for offline, you have to do it individually. It would be nice to have the ability to drag select folders/file and have the context menu provide the option to mark grouped items as available, as you might with any other native Windows function.
