2. Selective Bulk Trash Restoration

   Enable the ability to further filter trash folders by folder path and date deleted and perform a bulk operation to restore affected files. Alternatively allow a view to see a full list of all deleted items, rather than the smaller pages.

   The current bulk method is to restore all deleted items in trash. In organizations where the trash retention is set to never auto-delete, trashed files are maintained indefinitely which can create a very large trash folder for users. We do not want to restore files and folders for all time, just a select period.

   Example:
   Files below a specific folder structure Main>Tier>* (folder or file) were deleted by a user inadvertently. There were 70+ pages of files in that user's trash folder out of 164 that needed to be fully restored. The only method to do so was to highlight each page and restore page by page. Instead, filtering by the relevant criteria including deleting user, date, and folder structure affected, then bulk restoring all files identified would save significant time.

3. Notify me when a file is unlocked by another collaborator

   When a file is locked for editing by another user, on a case-by-case basis, I would like to be notified via email when that file is unlocked.

   Either:

   1. a file-setting that always notifies me after a user unlocks a specific file or
   2. a one-off subscription to a file when it is locked that I can set that notifies me via email when that file is unlocked. After this one-off notice occurs, the subscription would be deleted.

4. Add an admin console control to be able to turn on or off auto-accepting collaboration invitations

   Currently the ability to turn on or off Auto-Accepting Collaboration Invitations is only available from the user's settings (User Settings > Account Settings > Sharing). This would enable organizations to turn off auto-accept invitations on an instance-wide level.

5. Box Hubs for CANVIEWPATH users

   Users with CANVIEWPATH want the capability to specify folders/files by their IDs when adding contents to Box Hubs. Currently, folders and files under the CANVIEWPATH folder are grayed out and cannot be narrowed down from the top folders.
   The only way to identify them is by searching its folder name, which contains the risk of mistaking it with the folders with similar names.
   Therefore we request to use folder ID to accuratrely identify and select the appropriate folders.

   （日本語）
   CANVIEWPATHを利用しているユーザーが、Hubにフォルダ/ファイルを掲載する際に、フォルダIDやファイルIDで指定したい。
   現在は、CANVIEWPATHフォルダ配下のフォルダやファイルはグレーアウトして上位フォルダから絞り込むことができません。
   特定するには、フォルダ名で検索しかありませんが、名称が似ているフォルダと間違う危険もあるので、フォルダＩＤを利用できるようにしてほしい。

6. Request to Add Overwrite/Version Functionality to File Copy Operations via API

   Currently the only way to add a version to a file is to download it and upload the new version with the If-Match header.

   We are archiving files when a new file version is uploaded to a "main" folder, and to do that we have to download the existing version to our server and then generate a separate request to upload the file.

   Ideally, we would be able to combine the requests into one - a COPY (https://box-content.readme.io/reference#copy-a-file) that can overwrite an existing file in the destination folder if the appropriate etag is supplied during the copy request.

   This is not something we will build due to other roadmap commitments.

   Alternatively, you could always upload latest version to “backup folder,” delete file from “current version” folder, then copy “backup folder” version to “current version” folder.

   This will get you 100% version history in backup folder and avoid the need to download & upload the file a second time.

7. Private comments

   Ability to create a private comment. Right now, all comments are public (all collaborators can see). We would like to have a feature to make the comment private so that only user who posted it can see.

8. Groups exportable Report needed

   I think every organization's admin could use a quick User Groups report. Essentially it would look like the Groups page, with the addition of Shared Folders and names of members.

   Columns:
   Group Name
   Created Date
   Number of Members
   Group's Admins
   Group Members (Names)
   Group Description
   Shared Group Folders

9. box drive metadata

   With some of the new updates coming to Metadata, I'd like to request that Box Drive be able to support updates to Metadata on a folder/file.
   
   As a start, a context menu option that would take a user directly to the metadata page.

12. Folder Sync Prioritization from User

    Box Sync Prioritization**

    I know my coworker has been working in Folder A, and has uploaded or updated new documents.

    We are handing off the project, and so I know I need to access them as soon as I can...

    I should be able to hit prioritize Folder A so that that is the first set of files that need to be synced to my system. Folder A gets pushed to the front of the queue and all other files get put on hold until I get what I need synced. This could save me hours.

14. more keystrokes = worse user experience

    In the last month, when I create a new folder I've noticed I now have to tab into the field to name the folder. It didn't used to work this way. Previously, upon creating a new folder, the cursor would automatically be waiting for me to type in the folder name. This isn't the first time that Box has updated a feature to require more keystrokes. The same thing happened with the Share>Create Link feature sometime within the last year. It takes one or two more keystrokes to create an open sharable link now.

    So this request is specific in the case of the New Folder feature (bring back previous cursor behavior), but it is also a general note to Box to please consider making your interface more efficient in terms of keystrokes required, not less.

15. The ability to add an auto-expiration on specific external collaborators access to a specified file or folder.

    I would like an Expiration option date picker to be added to the Collaboration Invite window. This will allow our company to let a user privilege expire without us being forced to expire by auto-deleting a folder, or sharing a link that expires but can also be shared with others in the meantime.

17. Requesting functionality to recognize an existing file name (upon upload of a new file) and option to override or save with a new name.

    Issue: End users may have documents coming in via email / etc. about a deal or a client that have the same name. When saving to Box from email, if the file has the same name as an existing file it is currently saved as a new version of that file. In reality, the document may be completely different. On Windows file server, they are used to having a prompt warning them that a file already exists with that name, with an option to either save & override the file or change the file name. They'd like to have an alert with this option in Box as well.

18. I would like to see functionality added to the terminate_sessions API to delete cache information.

    When an administrator deletes BoxDrive session information, the cache remains.
    Even if an administrator deletes BoxDrive session information using the terminatesessions API, the cache will remain on the user side because this API is different from normal logoff.
    In this situation, even if the user loses the authority to handle the data, the data remains at hand, which may cause a security incident by a malicious user.
    Therefore, we would like to add a function to delete cache information when the terminatesessions API is executed.
    In the above difficult case (because deleting the client's cache seems difficult due to the nature of the API)
    If the above is not possible (due to the nature of the API, it would be difficult to delete the client cache), please consider adding a function that allows the user to select whether or not to leave the cache in BoxDrive.
    (In the case of deleting the cache, it would be like deleting the cache when closing a file opened from BoxDrive.)

    (Japanese)
    管理者がBoxDriveのセッション情報を削除した際、キャッシュが残る件について。
    terminate_sessions APIを用いて管理者がBoxDriveのセッション情報を削除しても、本APIは通常のログオフとは異なるため、ユーザ側にキャッシュが残ってしまいます。

    このままの状態だと、ユーザが当該データを取り扱う権限を失っても手元にデータが残るため、悪意のあるユーザによってセキュリティ事故が起きてしまう可能性があります。

    そのため、terminate_sessions API実行時にキャッシュ情報の削除を機能追加いただけないでしょうか。
    上記難しい場合（APIの性質上クライアントのキャッシュ削除は難しいと思われるため）
    BoxDriveにキャッシュを残すか否か選択できる機能追加も併せてご検討いただきたく（キャッシュを削除する場合はBoxDriveから開いたファイルをClose時にキャッシュ削除するイメージです）
