Allow System Administrators to download pkgs/msi's for all OS without being redirected on your site.
Hello!
I am unable to download the regular box drive pkg on my m1 mac. I am a system administrator who needs to download all pkgs/msi in order to support the business. I shouldn't have to use an intel based m1 mac just to download a pkg to upload to jamf.https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696254-Large-Scale-Deployments-Box-Drive
My suggestion would be to put direct links to the intel mac pkg on this page and the m1 pkg as well.

Allow Excel's Shared Workbook feature to work on Box.
Microsoft Excel has a feature called Shared Workbook that allows multiple users to edit Excel file simultaneously and still migrate each modifications into each others' Excel files.
Box doesn't support this type of feature, but Google and Dropbox supports to notify users on (Office) file modification status to provide similar feature / user experience.
Dropbox:
https://blogs.dropbox.com/dropbox/2015/10/dropbox-badge-now-available/17 votesWhile we won’t be building in support for the Shared Workbook feature as requested, we will be providing capabilities in the near-future that will provide more visibility when you open a file that is locked in order to prevent file editing conflicts.

Box new user interface option that mimics the Admin Console Content Manager user experience
Box new user interface option that mimics the Admin Console Content Manager user experience… REALLY valuable for people who are forced to use Box Drive, even though they would prefer the web app.

Instant Clipboard Copying for generated 'Share' links
I think it would be a good idea to have feature parity with the Google Drive sharing experience which immediately copies your share link to your clipboard when the permissions settings popover appears.

Create a view of files or folders with unsupported names
Currently: If a file has an unsupported name, it will be listed in Box Drive or Box Sync without their path name. Users will have to manually search for the file which is not feasible if they have thousands of files with unsupported names.
Desired: Create a view of files or folders with unsupported search names in the Box web app to make it easy to rename and removes the process of having to manually search for them.
Nice to Have: Have a button, when clicked, expands to reveal the full path of files or folders with unsupported names

Get last sign on date from api
We would like to be able to pull a users last sign on date via the api. We would also like to see the last time a user used Drive or sync via the API.

BUG in the move operation: it takes 1000x longer on desktop than on website
on any desktop moving a file is instant
on an iphone moving a photo to an album is instant
therefore we expect instant effect of moving operation
in box that is not the case : move takes considerable time
for example I tried to move 200GB on a box drive where all items were online only, first the window appeared trying to enumerate the files, which kept climbing, as if it was doing the move one file at a time
then, as nothing was happening i stopped the operation
to test if move was a copy+delete like on dropbox i…1 vote -
Remove the Sync icons in Webapp after uninstalling Box Sync
After transitioning from Box Sync to Box Drive (and uninstalling Sync), the “Marked for Sync” icons on the webapp should be removed to avoid user confusion on how syncing works with Box Drive.

New update with the search bar on the top is inconvenient.
Definitely prefer the search bar at the bottom closer to the box drive link. It's just easier to use there for fast searching. Less distance the mouse has to travel, and eyes are already focused there.

Blocked Files: Allow Users Not to Be Prompted Every Time They Launch
We keep .qbw files in Box and we are aware that Drive does not support them. However, every user gets a Drive error every time they launch and it's confusing for end users.

Collections Page as My Homepage
So as designed, I think "My Collections page" is underutilized. Sure here is the only place you can edit/delete your collections and their titles...but this would be a wonderful place to drive users too as their homepage. Obviously, you all thought of that as well since it can be selected as "My Homepage" but right now I think a lot of folks won't want to because there isn't enough useful information on the basic page.
Please allow the user to better configure this page or at least have the collections unfurled/unnested. So that each time they go to this page…

Bring back home directory "mountpoint" on the mac
I don't know if it's just me, or some problem with the privacy etc settings that have been a moving target with OSX lately, but after my latest reboot on a fully updated MacBook I was greeted with a popup from Box Drive saying it is now fully MacOS 12 compatible, and lo and behold, my /Users/app/Box directory is gone. I can only access Box files from the Explorer, but not the command line. I never looked into what the Box drive was exactly, a link, a mountpoint, no idea, but I miss it badly.

Two User accounts on same Windows 10 computer
There should be a possibility that two users on the same windows 10 computer, each user separately logging into his/her own windows account, could each log into his/her own box account and use box drive. BoxDrive is much more convenient that to go via the browser. This seems not possible now.
Additionally it is annoying that the the box drive shows up for login when the second user enters the windows account, and if startup of box is switched off for that user, then it is also switched off for the main user (the admin user who has made the…1 vote -
Add "Shared Link" or "Copy Link" option from the search interface
Instead of having to right click for more options, add this to the right sidebar or to the search interface. Otherwise, all we think we can do from the Box Drive folder is open a file.

Launch Zoom inside of Box
Launch a Zoom video from directly inside of Box web UI, Box Notes, etc.
The same way that you can launch a Google Meet video conference directly inside of Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, etc.
