Playing audio files
Can you please move the next/previous arrow buttons away from the Play/pause button on the mp3 player because I can't click play without going to the previous track. Attached is screenshot

When building a hub, it would be beneficial to be able to add files and folders in which you have less than owner, co-owner or editor access
Being able to add folders to view and upload files to a hub without higher (owner, co-owner, editor) access would allow much more functionality to the product.
2 votesFor now we are not planning to change this logic.

"Shared links" - search functionality
Currently "Shared links" do not have the search functionality or the search bar enabled. This is presenting an issue some someone that needs to share a ton of files and for one reason or another cannot add the users as collaborators.

Expanding the scope of BoxAI
Box AI works on single documents, but we also want to use it as a file search function across folders and Box as a whole. For example, I would like to have various company regulation files in a box and ask them to answer questions about what kind of application they should make when getting married.

Automatic retry on files with upload errors
Currently if there is an issue with a file upload (the one I'm currently running into is the "File may be locked or in use" error) Box Sync requires a manual step where you click the Retry button in the Box Sync tray icon context menu.
This is problematic for me because I'm trying to full automate our build pipeline. In my scenario we generate a nightly build, zip it up and copy it to the Box Sync folder. The problem for me has been that it appears that Box Sync is a bit too hasty and attempts to upload…

Share multiple files at once
Currently, you can only share one folder/file at a time. Not a smooth process.

Viewing and Downloading EPUB files
As outlined in Case # 2783413
We were unable to share an link to an EPUB which had watermarking embedded in the file.
Workarounds included zipping up the EPUB first.
It would be wonderful to get full EPUB support where you can view the EPUB (ie see the cover image, and even the contents of the EPUB book and allow anyone with the link to download the file.As was discovered in the case mentioned above, it turns out some EPUBs can at least be downloaded if they didn't contain watermarking. Publishers put in watermarking so removing these is not…

Add auto-lock/unlock feature in Box Drive or provide a configuration tool
Add auto-lock/unlock feature in Box Drive or provide a configuration tool
In Box Drive v2.21, it is possible to enable the ability to automatically lock/unlock files when they are opened in Box Drive by modifying the registry.
However, it is difficult for end users to modify the registry, so we would like to see Box Drive include the feature to automatically lock/unlock files, or provide a configuration tool (such as a batch file for registry modification) to modify the registry.17 votes -
Shared Link Lookup Tool
Problem: Admins often need to do investigation of files stored in Box and all they have to go off of is the file/folder's shared link. Since admins can't search by shared link in the current Content Manager UI, a Shared Link Lookup tool would provide similar information.
Key Features:
-Provide ability to enter a shared link (standard or vanity URL)
-Information returned after searching:
-File/folder name
-File/folder owner
-File/folder location (Owner -> Folder hierarchy)
-Status (whether the file/folder has been deleted or not)
-Admin-level 'delete' (ability for the admin to delete the file on the spot)54 votes -
Display full file name on mouseover
We have very long file names where file prefix can be 40 characters the same. In Box Web GRID view it's impossible to differentiate between the files without opening them. In list list view it's almost as bad. The file naming is set by customer policy and we cannot affect that.
Add a mouse over popup for files to show the whole file name for Box Web.

Identify which files and folders a user owns within a shared Teams folder, that are not shared or collaborated with others
We encountered a situation where certain files inside a shared drive were only visible to one user, while others couldn’t access them. This caused confusion because the files appeared to be part of the shared structure but were effectively private. A feature that highlights or filters these user-owned, non-shared items would help prevent misunderstandings and improve transparency.

Option to Restore an Item from Trash to a New Location (Other Than the Original Location)
Users cannot view/preview the contents in their trash before determining if they want it to be restored.
No clear way to recall exactly where each of the files were restored to (especially when you're dealing with dozen or more files)
9 votesWe don’t currently have this slotted in as an update to the Trash page given limited asks for it. If customer demand persists, we will re-evaluate, though this change also requires an API update since https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#restore-a-trashed-item only allows choosing of a new target parent folder in the case where the original parent has been deleted or user lost access.

Provide a complementary Event in the Events API that a file has been successfully scanned for viruses
We would like to take an action on a file once it has been successfully scanned for viruses. The files are being uploaded from an external party through a white labeled application.
We understand we would get an event that a malicious file has been found. We would also like the opposite event that a file has been scanned and has not been found to be malicious via the API.
