Upload notifications should notify user of uploads even if their account is the one uploading to a folder
User has set their folder settings to allow notification emails for a certain folder. She only gets email notifications when other people upload to that folder and not when she does. She would like to be able to receive notification emails when she uploads to the folder.
1 voteThis is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand or impact in order to be prioritized. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Enterprise whitelist to apply "internal" collaboration settings
Our parent company has a large number of subsidiaries that have their own unique EIDs for a number of reasons (branding, administration, SSO settings). We also have extremely locked down external collaboration settings and as such are requesting the ability to have a whitelist of other Box enterprises that could be subject to the internal collaboration settings (e.g. no timeout on collaboration).
3 votesWe are not likely to implement this. From a customer experience perspective, it would be difficult to explain to companies not in this situation why another enterprise can enforce different collaboration settings on their users.

This is not planned.
We don’t see enough customer demand for this yet, and supporting every additional content type takes a significant amount of engineering time and effort.

Due to the sheer amount of partners, Box is only able to build Web App integrations for a fraction of those partners.
This partner falls into the category that we won’t build an integration for them. They will need to call Box APIs and build against us.

Error message shown for failed uploads could be more descriptive or specific.
"There was a problem downloading the items. Please try again" is the provided error message for a downloading error.
We would like this message to be more descriptive and potentially include information around which specific files have and haven't been successful so that users able to continue the download as required.
3 votesThanks for the feedback. We understand the use case and potential value in this type of update. While its not on the roadmap at this time, we’ll keep it in mind for the future.

Support Multi-Select for Granting Folder Access to Groups (via Folder Picker on Groups Page of Admin Console)
Admins must currently add folders to Groups in the Admin Console on a one-by-one basis, so if an admin has 10 folders to add, that's a lot of clicks.
You could simplify this process by supporting multi-select in the folder picker that's provided when editing a Group from the Admin Console.
3 votesThis suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the performance and user interface to manage users in the Users & Groups tab before we add enhancements to group bulk operations. We will provide an update in the next few quarters.

Narrower use case than the other items on our roadmap so it will not be prioritized.

This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. However, we’d like more clarity and details from the requester about this suggestion to better understand the problem and where exactly in the Admin Console this sorting is needed.

Ability to see owned vs. collaborated content
From content manager, we would like the ability to filter the content by only showing content the user is 1) an owner of and/or 2) is a co-owner of, and/or 3) is collaborated on.
When a user leaves the organization, we will disable the account for a few months. Before it is deleted, we would like to have the possibility to easily see the impact for other users if/when the content is deleted. If needed, we would then assign new owners for content collaborated on before that content is deleted.
4 votesThis functionality is on our roadmap.
Please let me know if you like to meet to talk about your use cases and provide feedback for designs.

Logging in with Google Account on Android
Once you allow Box to login using your Google Account credentials on your computer, you should be able to login using those same Google Account credentials using 'Company credentials' at the login screen on your Android mobile device. This currently is not the case, but users are able to do this on their iPhones.
1 voteThis is not currently planned. We will revisit this with additional use case data and customer requests.

Metadata on Bookmarks
We heavily use Bookmarks for things that do not live within Box. We would like to have metadata applied to bookmarks for further search functionality.

Thumbnails should be able to be requested in a batch.
You should be able to download all thumbnails for the items within a folder.
1 voteGreat suggestion – we don’t have any plans to do this anytime soon, however.

Make Custom Terms of Service Page Responsive
Currently, the Custom Terms of Service acceptance page that users are shown upon first login to Box (when their EID has enabled Custom ToS) is not responsive and renders pretty poorly across Mobile, Sync, and other endpoints where the window is smaller than a full browser window.
1 voteUnfortunately we aren’t able to prioritize this ask at this time. Thanks though for the feedback and keep them coming!
