HD Video Preview: Allow User to Download the Lower Quality (720P, 480P, etc.) Renditions of Video Files
With HD Preview, users can choose the quality of the video in the Preview (based on network/bandwidth speed, etc.), but users cannot download those downsampled/lower quality 'renditions'.
REQUEST: Allow users to download the lower quality renditions of video files on Box. For example, I upload a 1080P file, and I can choose to Preview the video in reduced 720P or 480P quality, and I can also choose to download those same renditions if I'd like. Think of it like adding a 'which quality/size output would you like?' option added after clicking 'download' for a video file.
3 votesThank you for the suggestion!
Providing a way to create a copy of an HD video, but at a lower quality so that it is easily downloadable is a low priority for the team.
It’s a niche use case at the moment and there’s a workaround (use a tool to downscale the video and upload that in addition to the HD video into Box).

Box Relay
Box Relay needs to be able to create a work flow for a parent folder and have it work for all child folders. A user is setting up a simple notification (upload, download) and then sends a notification to a set of users with a message. The user currently has to replicate or create a new Relay for each child folder. Very, very silly to have to waist so much time.

Copy file in workflow should create a new version if file already exists
I am creating Quality Management workflows. At the end of the workflow the released document is copied to a new area, that is shared with the consumers of the QM-documentation.
Works fine the first time we run the workflows. If we update the document and run the workflow again, the target file is not versioned: we get a new file with the same name and a timestamp added to it.
I appreciate this behaviour in some situations and understand why you have chosen this solution. However we would like to have the option in the workflow to "version the file,…

Avoid accidental edits! Set local OS ReadOnly flag initially on ALL Box Drive files; When User Clears local RO, auto-Lock file for editing!
Currently a user can very easily ACCIDENTALLY change a file locally in Box Drive without locking. This can be completely avoided by this:
EVERY file in Box Drive should initially have local OS (e.g. Windows) "Read-only" attribute set. If and when the user explicitly Clears/Unsets the Windows Read-only attribute, e.g. in Windows Explorer (or chooses "Lock File For Editing in Box Drive" from context menu), Box Drive shall AUTOMATICALLY Lock it in Box, ideally only allowing local editing within Box Drive. There could be a pop up message like "File Locked for editing in Box Drive; be sure to Unlock…

Start Box Drive on windows startup instead of user login
We have a PC that share Box content on our LAN but it's incredible that when the PC restarts Box Drive does not start until a user does login to the pc. For us it mandatory that Box Drive starts on windows startup instead of user login. We tried to schedule the action but Box process fail with an error that windows is not started in interactive mode.

Allow Us To Move Collaborator Folders to a sub-folder without removing the permissions
When a user shares a folder with us it sits in our Root folder. Can these show up in a Shared folder to save our Root folder having a load of odd name folders. We believe you can do this in Dropbox.
ideally we need to be able to change the folder name at our end too without amending it at the user end.

Security Report: Include Changes to Any Setting from Enterprise Settings
Currently, the Security Report doesn't appear to capture quite a few settings changes that happen in Enterprise Settings in the Admin console, which is bad.
For example, if an admin is wanting to know who changed the 'save files to device' setting on the Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Mobile tab, there's no in-product way currently to identify that. Also,
--All Notifications tab settings except for the Compliance Email Archive settings are missing
--ALL settings from the Apps tab are missing, meaning there are no filters/logs exposed currently for any changes to make apps available/disabled, disabling all published apps,…30 votes -
Correct log when a user creates an item in Box
Currently, "Uploaded" and "Downloaded" are logged when a user creates an item like Word document, Box Note etc.
However, it should be logged as "Created".

Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box
Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box
We would like to request the following improvements to the “People with the link” option within Box’s Share Link feature, which is used to grant viewing or downloading access to folders or files for organisations or email addresses that do not have a Box account or existing folder permissions.
At present, requiring the link creator to manually set a password is rather cumbersome, and as a result, many users choose not to do so. Since there is no enforcement mechanism, some organisations restrict or even prohibit the…

data quota inconsistency
Provide admins to be able to correct the issue that appears to happen quite a bit with our users data consistency. e.g users box quota is showing incorrect data than box has for them. user sees 25GB used but Box thinks it is 50GB.

Filter Box Signs by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive)
Box Sign: Enable ability to filter by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive), rather than on the right side (less intuitive).

"SSO Authentication Should Be Counted as 'Login' in User Statistics Report"
SSO Authentication is not counted as "Login" in User Statistics report. SSO Authentication is also "Login" activity. It should be counted.

Ability to show or hide specific metadata templates for specific users and groups only.
As the number of metadata templates increases, selecting metadata when creating file request links or Relay workflows can become complicated and lead to mistakes.
By setting metadata templates that you want to use only for specific users/groups, you can reduce mistakes like this and improve the usability of Box, so We would like to see it implemented.メタデータテンプレート数が増加するにあたりファイルリクエストリンクやRelayワークフローの作成の際のメタデータ選択が煩雑になりミスを誘発する可能性があります 。
特定のユーザー/グループにのみ使用させたいメタデータテンプレートを設定することでこのようなミスを削減しBoxの利便性にも繋がるため是非実現してほしいです。16 votes -
Opening multiple files at once
It would greatly improve flow and user experience to be able to open multiple PDFs at once. Our team must review numerous individual PDFs, and we have only ever been able to open one PDF at a time. It becomes a tedious task to open each individual PDF.

SSO exception
Ability to have exceptions for SSO for specific amdin accounts/test users. Use case: there's a series of admin accounts we use that own folders/content in Box but aren't actual users. Now when we want to turn on SSO - we now have to have OKTA accounts for those accounts and test users, when we'd prefer to just do Box 2FA for those vs. SSO enabled for all

Hubs permission model should be more granular
Currently in the Box Hubs Beta, all collaborators invited into a Hub receive the "Viewer" permission on files and folders linked in the Hub. This does not allow for Hub content to be view-only and block downloading of content. Alternative methods of managing this such as rolling out classification policies would not be scalable as Hubs usage grows. It would be great if Hubs collaboration could be more granular and there was an ability to invite users or groups into a Hub with other permissions such as "Previewer" so they are more restricted on what they can do after…
