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…

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.7 votes -

Blank space on right side when browser window is narrow
In the browser interface, since around October 2019 for me, if you open a new Box window with a width of about 1200px or less, there is a totally blank area on the right side of the window where the sharing/detail panel would normally be. You have to click the black arrow to show the sharing/detail panel, and then hit it again to hide the sharing/detail panel, only then do the file details use the entire window width for display.

Enhanced Reporting on Folder Growth
It would be advantageous to see what folders are growing in content from custom periods. This will allow to not only run some analytics on the usage but also ensure that users are storing content in the correct locations.

git-like ‘RAW’ mode for Box Notes
When I have a Boxnote with a trailing backslash (’\’) a copy-and-paste into an xterm (Linux X11, Mac OS Xquartz), it converts the backslash to a control character.
When I copy a Boxnote with a backslash I get the following:
“”“
!/bin/env bash
echo “Hello World!” \
<A0>“The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”
“”“And the string ‘<A0>’ is highlighted.
It appears to me that Boxnote is interpreting a backslash at the end of a line as a ‘backslash<A0>’ when copy-pasted into an Xterm using vim. I tested the placement by putting a backslash in the middle…

Automated Set of Subfolders

Option to prevent Drive from launching on startup by user
We are preparing to deploy Box Drive to our users using the Windows .msi. However we've found that after installation, the Box Drive window opens automatically for every user, every time they log into the computer. For users on a shared system who are not using Box, this means dismissing the window every login.
We'd like an option for Box Drive installation to not have the client launch automatically for all users. Or post-installation, allow the user to tell Box Drive not to open automatically for them. If the Box Drive client needs to run at login for every user,…8 votes
