  1. Recommending update for "Understanding Collaborator Permission Levels"

    I really appreciate the "Understanding Collaborator Permission Levels" article:

    https://community.box.com/t5/Collaborate-By-Inviting-Others/Understanding-Collaborator-Permission-Levels/ta-p/144

    We send users to this page all the time to help them understand Box permissions.

    However, one thing that has caused some confusion is that there are security settings at the Enterprise level and at the user and folder level that can impact an Editor's ability to "Invite Collaborators".

    I think it would be nice if there was a footnote on that grid that alerted people to the fact that there are security settings that prevent Editors from being able to issue collaboration invitations.

    Thank you

  6. fixing search engine

    searching a massive data base with limited tags or keywords is a big problem for me. why did Box remove this feature? Plus, no live chat?

  8. Disable drag/drop function for subfolders when navigating to save a file

    When navigating to the relevant subfolder to save a file, it is too easy to accidentally drag/drop a subfolder into a parallel one, on route.
    Causing headaches with missing folders and upsetting the folder structure.
    If the folder moving function could be frozen while saving files, this would be more secure.

  10. "Assign Previewer Role to Individual Files for Better Management"

    We’d like to be able to assign the Previewer role to a file and not to a folder. That’d be nice for us.

  12. A method of Direct message or chat to a user.

    Besides notifications, we would like to have a way to DM or chat a user about changes to content.

    Comments are limited in characters and will also appear to others. This is why we would like a way to message a user directly within Box.

  13. Hide folders from Collaborators

    Hello, would love to be able to hide folders (I am currently the owner) from collaborators that way as the owner I can monitor what is seen by collaborators as a whole without them seeing things change on their end.

  14. Treat .todo files as plain text

    There is a plugin for Sublime Text that lets you create .todo files for task lists. These are just plain text files so it would be great if they could be previewed and treated as plain text. I'm mainly interested in being able to use the versioning to see the history of these files.

  15. Folder created on mobile does not sync automaticaly on desktop with Box Sync

    Solution : automatically sync folder created on mobile on desktop, or at least allow to activate syncing on desktop from the mobile app (this option is only available online - under sub / sub menu - but not in mobile menu)

  16. Add @mentions using enter key

    It would be nice to not have to put your cursor over the persons name and then hit enter after the name has shown. Rather, the name shows, hit enter, boom, done! No extra key strokes irritating my mouse arm!

  17. If I include a URL in the optional sharing message, my message is lost.

    It would be better for Box to display a warning in-line that URLs are not allowed than to have the message just be lost. Even better would be to allow URLs in messages.

  18. Auto select search text upon opening Box Drive

    When I Press Shft+Ctrl+Alt+B to activate the search function, the previous search text is in the search bar. It's highly unlikely I'm going the same search a 2nd time. The text should auto highlight, so I can just start typing for the next search. Currently you have to manually select the text to overwrite.

  19. Ability to restore folder structures to point-in-time

    Similar to version history, we would like the ability to select a folder, folder structure, or subset of folders/files and restore all content therein to a specific point in time. OneDrive recently released a histogram with a timeline slider feature allowing admins to restore select content to a specific period in time. For users moving from on-prem or used to backups, this provides confidence in giving the right access levels to users to get work done with the ability to revert content/structures if needed in case of accidental moved/edited or corrupted content.

  20. Export search results data (as CSV or Excel) and/or files

    There may be times when you just want to see a list of the hits without looking at the actual files, or download the files themselves without the details
