Dicom
Large folder has 2000 image files and 2 are corrupt. Currently the importer stalls and errors out due to the 2 corrupt files. Would it be possible to have a way to bypass this and tell the importer to go ahead and render the final study.boxdicom file WITHOUT all the files (2) being uploaded? A simply error catching sub that says – if you wait more than 30 seconds and you can’t get the last files, just go ahead and call the sub to build the final study.boxdicom file, and pop up a warning telling the user that – we finished but you are missing a few files

Filter folders that user can access by Access level in the Users & Groups tab
Currently, all folders that a managed user may or may not have access to appear in the 'Edit User Access permissions' panel. There should be a filter for the Access level - so that eg. folders with Access level 'None' do not come up.

Disable Box Notes for Individuals Outside the Organization
It would be great if there were separate buttons to disable Box Notes either completely for everyone, or just for people outside of the organization. We use Box Notes internally for meeting planning, and we have this one client who uses it consistently to provide data, but we would really love it if she was prevented from doing so while those of us who work here could still use the feature for meeting prep.

Drag and Drop between two browser tabs of the Box Webapp
Allow drag and drop of files and folders from the Box Webapp on one browser tab to the Box Webapp in another browser tab. We often need to search through a large list of project related files to find the place we would like to store information that was created in multiple task related folders. We want to be able to open a task related folder on one tab and the project folder on another tab and then just drag and drop between the tabs. Otherwise, we end up re-searching for the project in the copy and move menu numerous times depending on the number of tasks.

Make all notifications visible at-a-glance again. This functionality was just removed.
As of today, employees in our company are noticing that the full Notifications page is no longer available in Box Web, and notifications have been moved to a small drop-down menu in the corner. A chat with a member of Box support confirmed that this is a product-wide change.
The problem with this drop-down menu is that comments cannot be read in full anymore, as they are being truncated to fit in the small pane.
Can either 1) the full Notifications page be made available again for users/organizations who wish to keep it, or 2) the new drop-down menu have a control to expand it and show notifications in full?

Add Support for Reading Tags on Weblinks
You can currently add tags for weblinks via the API, but can't read them. This is a huge oversight, which makes it nearly impossible to add any sort of dynamic filtering capabilities. That is, there's no way to return (or parse) out a list of available tags -- since you can't read any of them.
To accomplish any sort of dynamic filtering, you have to bypass the tags altogether and add them to a field you can read. For example, after a colon in the title field. However, that's a temporary stop-gate solution with issues of its own.

Hide comments except for poster and folder owner/s to see
Add a folder setting that allows collaborators to post comments, but these comments are only visible to the poster and the folder owner. Responses to comments from an owner should only be visible to the original poster.

Create new Box Note using boxnote.new
Similar to how other services like MS Word have word.new, it would be great to have boxnote.new to create a new Box Note from the URL

update date information
When someone update files on the box, the "edit date" has not been updated on my box system.
How should I change the setting?
Or are there some issues on the box now?1 vote -
update information
There is no information from box system when someone upload files on the box.
I have been able to receive the information when I started to use this system, but suddenly, it can not work.Of course, I checked on the setting "When the files update, receive email".

Advanced Box search capabilities: Being able to search by Creator, Co-owner or Editor
We believe that there are some key data elements that should be filters in the search (and are collected by Box so they should be searchable) and hope to see them in the future. The main one is the "creator" since the "owner" is the only filter that allows you to determine who created the content. Since our Box instance is configured in a way where BoxAdmin owns all of our content, BoxAdmin is also the "owner" of everything. This makes search useless when someone is looking for content that they created.

Copy collaborator access when copying folders
When copying a collaborated folder structure to a new location, users should be given the option to apply all the collaborations of the original to the copied structure.

Hide or disable unavailable options for non-primary admins
The interface for secondary admin accounts is extremely confusing. It should at minimum have the SSO section disabled with a note explaining that only the primary admin account can modify it, or even better display the settings but greyed out. Having an active button to initiate SSO configuration for an organization that already has SSO enabled made me worry that SSO had broken in some way, or that our Box configuration was in an inconsistent/unstable state at risk of breaking if I made any changes.

"Non-private custom URL" language is wrong
The new language around custom URLs is wrong. In link settings the checkbox reads: "Publish content broadly with a custom, non-private URL."
If I understand correctly (and I really think I do) how broadly the content is published is 100% controlled by the "People with the link / People in your company / Invited people only" setting in the prior screen.
Checking the box to create a custom URL does NOT publish the content broadly if a restricted setting is used, and does NOT make the URL "non-private".
This setting should be labeled with plain speech that doesn't imply anything beyond what it does: create a custom URL for this link.
