  1. Quarantined files indicator for Box mobile app

    Quarantined files currently show a red exclamation indicator icon + tooltip “This file is under quarantine” on webapp, but NOT on mobile.

    This is an issue for users (especially external collaborators) who will try to access these quarantined files on mobile, but not understand why they can’t access it.

  2. Allow co-owners (not just owners) to extend auto-expiration date for external collaborators.

    The primary reason why we have not enabled the auto-expiration for Collaborators is because only folder Owners will receive notifications of expiring collaborators and links, and only Owners will have the ability to extend the expiration date. In our instance, the Primary BoxAdmin account owns all content (and users are not allowed to create root-level folders, they're only co-owners).

    If this ability were extended to Co-Owners, then this enterprise setting would be feasible for us. It has to be up to the co-owners to receive the notifications and determine whether or not to extend the sharing (since they have the…

  3. Metadata Driven Retention Policy based on 1 attribute, not templates

    requesting the ability to apply metadata driven retention policy based on 1 attribute, without having the need to create multiple templates just for 1 (or some) metadata retention policy.

  4. Notify user when moving a folder breaks collaborator permissions

    When moving a folder that has inherited permissions from a higher folder, the webapp should recognize that it will lose those collaborations. It would also be great if it then asked the user if it is ok, if they would like to cancel the move, or if they would like to invite the collaborators on the folder in its new location.

  9. Email to Box Change Disappointing

    Box decided to remove email to folder options for less than business users, with supposed preservation of existing email to folder set ups. That didn't work. The existing email to folder broke, one of our critical business processes was subsequently broken.

    1) I did not receive notice of this change
    2) I can't even view what the existing email to folder email address is.
    3) It's a poor move to remove a feature an existing customer has access to. Should have been grandfathered in.

  10. Ability to disable the download button on the root folder of my main shared folder

    I am setting up a folder in my account as an external-facing folder of assets. This will be a public folder that anyone can access with the proper link. Currently, I'm in trial of Box and noticed that the "Download" button appears at the root folder of this shared asset folder. I want people to be able to download assets as they wish, but don't want the download button to be at the root folder. I can honestly see myself getting a lot of feedback from people who accidentally download several TB of assets, instead of the individual files they…

  11. add dynamically a folder to a group

    When a structure of folders is created as a template, it would be cool when this template is copied and if a at least one group is affected to automatically add this new folder to the group.
    Now you have to go to the admin console to manually add it and it's wasted time and not very efficient. Maybe also get the possibility to do it through relay.

  12. Drive: Available offline to specific folders and not enterprise wide

    We would like to allow available offline for user drives only or work spaces. But network shares which is considerable larger shouldn't have this option. So If we allow admins the ability to choose what folders can be marked for offline instead of enterprise wide.

  13. Ability to nest skill card metadata in the entries of skill cards

    lets say I've created a custom skill that runs a transcription on a dropped audio or video file, identifying speakers a prepending the speaker title to each segment of continuously spoken text. If I could nest skill cards, I could run sentiment analysis on each segment and generate a skill card representing that (as a timeline card) while also cross linking any other areas of the file which had the same sentiment rating (using the provided 'appears').

    This is just one example, but the flexibility would would lend its self to many more complicated implementations, possibly negating the need for…

  14. Include a Disable Preview Option

    I've been using BOX for years and the only complaint is from my clients who download from my shared links. Almost 90% of users complain that they get the message
    "We're sorry, this file type is not currently supported."

    I understand from your viewpoint but from our viewpoint, we dont require such preview because our files are .zip, .rar, .7z, etc.

    So PLEASE enable some option where I can enable or disable the auto-preview.
    Remember, you guys are a cloud storage 1st solution. My clients should be able to download anything as simply as possible without getting confused about some…

  16. Add Make Available Offline control to Explorer/Finder toolbar

    We are pushing our users to start using Drive instead of Sync. Our helpdesk team brought up that they are concerned that the current UI for MFOing content (right click file, click “Make Available Offline”) is not intuitive for end users. They are requesting a button for “MFO“ to be surfaced on the top toolbar of the Windows Explorer window when an item is selected, so that the option is visible without having to right click the item.

  18. Restrict Classification edits to Governance menu

    A admin can access the Classification template in the Metadata page and delete values of classification. That makes errors. Classification should be only accessible via the Governance menu and not via the Metadata menu.
