  2. We would like the "Share" UI for web collaboration to be improved.

    Currently, the options for inviting users and generating a shared link are on the same screen, which can be confusing for users.

    Please separate the invitation and shared link issuance into clearly distinct screens.

    Webからコラボレーションする際の「共有」のUIを改善して欲しい

    招待と共有リンクが同じ画面のため、ユーザーが混乱しやすいです。
    招待と共有リンクの発行をはっきりと区別した画面にして欲しいです。

  3. Option to turn off or remove the Sign Up or Log In screen when clicked on shared links

    I would like the option to turn off or remove the Sign Up or Log In screen when my client clicked on my shared links. This pop-up window confuses them and leading them to think they must Sign Up or Log in in order for them to view and download my shared documents.

    If my client like your product structure, I am sure they will sign up for an account themselves without the need to prompt them every time. This effect my business as I have received many complains about this window. They recommend for me to use other methods.

  4. Folder Tree View in WebApp (Windows Explorer/Finder, eBuilder)

    I noticed that Box does not have a high-level folder tree view, except in the 'All Files' page (you click on the arrow next to "All Files"). Many Box folders in my company's folder structure take a very long time to load - however the folder tree view on the 'All Files' page loads quicker, but still not as fast as another application like eBuilder. Having a permanent option on the web application would be very efficient when tracking down files, and load times won't be as cumbersome. Currently, having to click through multiple folders in order to access the…

    Be able to set a particular File Type such as "Folders" be the default file type in search rather than "Any Type." Would like to be able to select a file type as default.

  6. Controls for Admins to stop over sharing

    We have seen multiple scenarios where our teams are over sharing entire folder structures with external parties. It would be good as admins/co-admins to have a setting that allows us to disable external sharing.
    I was hoping this could have been done with policies, but since they are hierarchical it would stop the files and folders within the ones we want to lock from being shared!

  7. If I move a file, let me leave a hint to the new location in the original folder

    When a shared file or folder is renamed and/or moved to a different folder, retain a hint in its original location that it's been moved so that "Search in folder" can helpfully inform that the file/folder has been moved or renamed, and provide a link to the new location. The user does not need to see the current name of the file, or its new location. When they follow the link, they access the file/folder according to how it's shared at its new location.

    An expandable "Recently moved" area in each folder could provide a compact list of files and …

  9. Request about 'People in your company' for shared links

    There is a permission called "People in your company" for shared links.
    When a link is set to "People in your company", it actually can be viewed by "People in your company" AND by "Invited people" there as well.
    Some end users missed out the fact that those "invited people" would also be viewing it with the generated link.

    Please change the name of the item to "People in your company and Invited people only".

    ご要望:
    共有リンクの「会社のユーザー」という権限があります。
    「会社のユーザー」権限を設定した共有リンクは、実は「会社のユーザー」だけでなく「招待されたユーザー」も閲覧可能です。
    エンドユーザーによっては、この「招待されたユーザー」も生成された共有リンクで閲覧可能であることを見逃すことがあります。

    そのため、項目名を「会社のユーザーと招待されたユーザー」に変更して欲しいです。

  10. Collect user info when a box link is shared with non-box users

    The goal is to require non-box users enter their first, last name and email before accessing a Box shared link set to permission "People with the link".

    I.E, user will click on the link, re-direct to a sign up page requiring first, last name and email. After submitted they are routed to the training videos hosted on Box.

  11. BoxDrive Moving files between folders with different owners using

    BoxDrive When using to move files in different folders with different folder owners, the file owner cannot be changed and an error occurs. This can be done using the Box browser, so I would like to be able to do the same with BoxDrive.

  16. Allow Searching by Last Name - Invite Collaborators / Email Shared Link / Comment @Mentions

    In the Invite Collaborators modal (and other locations such as the Comment composer), Box's autocomplete feature only allows the user to search by either email address and/or first AND last name.

    Meaning for user John Doe with email jdoe@box.com, a search for...
    --"John D" will populate correctly
    --"jdoe" will populate correctly
    --"Doe" will NOT populate correctly

    REQUEST: Allow searching by last name (without having to enter first name before).

    Thank you for submitting this request. We’re pleased to announce that we have added support for searching by last name and email address when sharing from the Box web application. We hope to expand this functionality to our comments support in a future release.

  17. Request for the ability to not display specific folders in BoxDrive

    BoxDrive is very convenient because it can be used as an explorer, but due to user operational error
    folders or files may be moved to unintended folders.
    Folders to be collaborated outside the company can lead to information leakage,
    We request for improve that specific folders can only be operated and viewed with the Box Web Browser.

    BoxDriveはエクスプローラとして使えるので利便性が高いが、ユーザーの操作ミスにより
    フォルダやファイルを意図せぬフォルダに移動させてしまうことがある。
    社外コラボレーションするフォルダは情報漏洩につながることがあることから、
    指定したフォルダはBOX Webブラウザのみでしか操作・閲覧ができないようにしたい

  18. Ability to Make Specific Folders Persistent in Box Drive

    In order for some of our CADD standards to work properly we have our users marking a specific folder for offline use. It would be nice if there was an admin setting to mark specific folders to be precached or persistent in Box Drive for specific users or groups.

  19. Company Shared Link Controls: 'Auto-Expiration' to Only Impact Company Links ('People in your company' links)

    Our customers would like to set default expiration for 'People in your company' links but not for 'Invited user only' links.

    Recently, we have been able to set default expiration for Open links.
    This change have been improved usability, our customers are pleased about it.

    But it is still impossible to set a default expiration only for 'People in your company'links (without setting for 'Invited user only' links).
    Some of our customers need to limit the sharing of information internally as well and hope this setting.
    Example.
    ・pharmaceutical industry
    ・manufacturing industry
    ・Companies with group companies

    Now, they have to set…

  20. Customization of Main Screen

    There should be away that you do not have to view all of the files and folders that you have been to invited to collaborate on when you are in Box. Currently, there is only All Files which shows folders and documents that I can't move, organize, or hide because I don't own them. There should be an option to customize my view to just my files and folders. There could also be an option to view just collaboration files and folders. That way, All Files could remain as it is., but I would not have to…
