Ability to set folder notifications for external and internal collaborators within a folder.
Companies with many external collaborators have to walk each user through changing their folder notification settings so the external collaborator will be notified whenever a document is uploaded to a folder. This is extremely manual for us and their external collaborators. It would be easier if folder owners could set folder notifications for everyone within the folder so external collaborators receive the sames notifications as internal collaborators.

Manage external collaborators en masse.
Some Ricardo users have over 50 external collaborators on a single folder. They cannot find any facility to download a list of current collaborators or a way to change the permissions of multiple users en masse.

I see the value to track the history of the settings but it is not on the roadmap due to other priorities.

Device Trust separate desktop and 3rd party apps
We're trying to limit Box to managed devices. We enable DT on webapp, deploy Box for EMM, but when we try to open/edit a file in iOS Office, DT considers it a 3rd party app and blocks it.
Decoupling the two would leave the desired state of blocking webapp on unmanaged devices, controlling mobile through EMM, but also allowing editing in apps as desired on that managed device.

Error message when access to a file is not available.
Instead of the current error message, "Page does not exist," can we have a message that is more indicative of access is not available to the user as opposed to the page does not exist.
A typical scenario is when a link is shared but the user was not invited into the folder etc.
The current message is misleading.

Return collaborated files (single file collab SFC) under a folder via API
Currently, there are two API calls surrounding getting a list of collaborations:
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#view-a-folders-collaborations
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-file-collaborationsHowever, say a collaborated file exists under a non-collaborated/private folder. Now say the folder is large. It would be less easy to get a list of collaborated files under this folder without iterating through every single file.

Folder level comments and tasks
Being able to comment or assign a task on an entire folder would be easier than @mentioning a user on one file and referencing 3 or 4 other ones. It would be helpful to assign a task to someone on an entire folder (and not leave that sort of information in the folder description).
71 votesWe understand the request, but unfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap. We will be exploring improvements and enhancements to Tasks in the next 1-2 years and will take this into consideration when we do.

Ability to preview previously cached files by using spacebar in mac finder
When navigating through files in Mac Finder, if you select a file and hit spacebar it will pop open a preview.
Since Box Sync supports this one would think if a file has been previously opened and cached locally by Box Drive, it would also be supported but it doesn't

Open Shared Link Controls: Default Password Requirements for Open Shared Links
REQUEST: Admin would like the ability to set a global control whereby all public/open ('people with the link') links must have a password.
Our current controls on shared links impact all 3 Shared Link permissions causing additional impact on the user experience.
168 votesInstead of “require password” security control, we intend to support “Require OTP” requirement for public links (via SMS, Email, or TOTP). I wanted to share where we are headed. We do not plan on delivering this ask as is, but we do intend to solve the security use case behind it.
Please comment if you disagree.

In move or copy operations, it would be useful to have a "new folder" option.
It would be advantageous to have a "new folder" option when a user is copying or moving files to a new destination.
Otherwise the user must create the new folder first, then select content from source and copy/move to target new folder.
This would be a great improvement to usability.
