One of the most important things to understand is whether auth support / options match up with real life requirements and usage patterns

Change the default security of a shared link, to "People in this file" or "People in this folder" rather than "Anyone with the link"
Change the default security of a shared link, to "People in this file" or "People in this folder" rather than "Anyone with the link" (which is the current default).
Whenever a shared link is created in box, the default access permission assigned to the new Shared Link, is "Anyone with the link" unless Account-level permissions are specifically changed by a knowledgeable user. This is not a secure choice at all. It's too easy to create a large number of Shared Links which, by default, are open to absolutely anyone in the entire world to whom the link gets forwarded to. The box user may be under the mistaken impression that their link is secure, but by default it is absolutely not at all secure!
This poor security choice is similar to forwarding an email attachment directly, but the difference is that box requires each of it's folder to be specifically permissioned. So the box user is under the impression that when users are permissioned to view folder contents, that no-one else would be able to view those contents even if a shared link is forwarded beyond the intended audience. WRONG!
Since box requires explicit addition of users to each folder, it makes sense that all shared links, by default would have their access level limited to the users of that folder. The user should specifically select whether they want to make the link accessible to everyone in the world.

Upload more than photos in Box Mobile for iPhone
We need an option to upload directly from Files app/Microsoft products via the Box Mobile App. Currently you can only upload boxnotes and photos directly from the Box Mobile app and to upload anything else you must go to a particular app and upload it from there.
On Android you can do this, why not iPhone?

File request from Outlook plugin
It would be FANTASTIC if we could extend the functionality of our the file request feature to the Outlook plug-in. There are many financial service firms (wealth management, family offices, PE, etc.) that do a substantial amount of client on-boarding and constantly have to request documents from them.
V.1 Doesn't need to be as feature rich as the current experience in Box - we truly just need a way to be able to select a folder, have a link generated for that location, and easily share that link in the body of the email.
2 votesThanks for your feedback! This is not planned but we hope to release API support soon to programmatically create a link and add it to the email signature – would this help?

trash
Would like to have a permissions level where only the admins are able to permanently delete files from the trash. We dont need Governance, only the option to restrict users from permanently removing/deleting any company files/folders.

Allow custom logo in Box notifications
If we upload our logo in our custom branding (enterprise settings > custom set up) it will not show in email notifications sent from Box. Instead, it will show the standard Box logo and colors. White labelling notifications is important to mimic our portal and avoids unnecessary Platform development.

clearer highlighting needed when selecting a file on webapp
This is a request on how to display/express "Selected file(s)".
In the current specification, selected files glow blue(List View) or is surrounded by a blue border(Grid View).
There were opinions from some users that these expression is hard to see and difficult to distinguish.Opportunities to utilize Box are increasing and they are being used in various places, by various people.
For use in extremely bright/dark places, and for people with sight problems, please improve the way of expression.

Feed to keep view preference (Top vs. Recent)
At the top of the Feed you can choose whether you'd like to sort by Top or by Recent. I personally find Recent more useful and would like Box to remember that is my preference.

Share Link Always Enabled
The Share link should always be enabled or give us the option to have it always on. We do not use the collaborate function of Box but always use the "share link" function. To now add a step for us to use that function is not thinking of your current users uses.

Fix Favorites sort order between side bar and main view for Japanese file names
Currently the Favorite sort order is not the same between sidebar and favorite view.
It appears that on Favorite view, items are sorted in order of UTF-8 code point (when you sort by name) whereas in sidebar, items are sorted in a similar way as Window explorer.

Enable Import from Box within Gsuite
In the GSuite integration, we cannot access File>Import in order to pull in spreadsheets and keep the formatting. Copy/pasting takes additional time and formats incorrectly. Please add the File>Import functionality to the GSuite integration (this is available via GDrive, but not via the Box integration).
