Slow IO: Switch from SQLite to something faster?
Benchmarks show that BOX drive is 50% to 90% slower than direct filesystem
Boxdrive stores the files in the cache as-is so there is no cpu overhead in encryption or packing, IO should be as fast as native filesystem.Perhapse the SQLite database layer is slowing things down?
If that's the case, replace Drive backend with something faster, like this one:

Support custom objects via the mobile Salesforce and Box integration.
The Box and Salesforce integration for Salesforce mobile does not support custom objects at all so we had to create a deep link workaround that redirects to the associated folder within the box mobile experience (this also requires some salesforce coding to populate a field with the corresponding folderID). This is not a seamless experience....it is a clunky redirect.
Also, you are not able to create the corresponding box folder for the first time from the mobile experience....you have to create the box folder from the desktop from within the box integration within salesforce first, before you are able to…

Create Pages and collapsable sections within Box Notes
Add a feature that allows multiple Pages and Sections within a single Box Note, similar to OneNote.
Also add a feature that allows for a collapsible section within a single Box Note - for example to use for different topics at an event, or different days at a conference - instead of making a new Note for each topic/day.

Searching Sub-Folders
We have a user that asked the eblow question. They are referring to Box Drive folders that have been marked for offline use, as well as those in the cloud:
"I would like to see improvements in the Box Search capability within Windows Explorer. You cannot execute a search across sub folders within your Box Drive folder structure, only within the currently viewed folder. If I know what folder a file was in I have eliminated 90% of the reasons I need to search. I get the same search limitations for Cloud based folders and folders saved offline to my…

Folder tree order up side down when move/copy
In folder view on Web Application, upper folder tree view is shown when working with deep folders.(left corner)
The display order of this tree view and the tree view displayed when you "move/copy" a file are up side down.
(where[...]mouse hober over)
(Folder hierarchy ascending/descending order)
So, when moving files, there is a possibility of causing a mistake in the destination.Normal folder view: 1st>2nd>3rd>4th>5th
View on Move/Copy: 5th>4th>3rd>2nd>1st
It's happy to be if it is a same display order.
Most of users remain on Box Drive/explorer, for a transformation, we would like to recommend Box web application for…

Box Sign - Make PDF form fields fillable
Box Sign does not currently recognize embedded PDF form fields. You can add a text, date, checkbox, or signature field to a PDF document, but the original form fields are unavailable (but left intact).
Use case: We ask our contractors to complete IRS W-9 forms using the standard IRS fillable PDF forms. If Box Sign could recognize the embedded fields in the IRS forms, our contractors could fill out, sign, and file the forms in one process. As it is, we will have to send them the fillable PDF form, ask them to fill it in and send…

Show My Recent files in Box for Gmail by default
Box for Gmail: Show recently accessed files and folders by default within Box for Gmail.
Oftentimes I'm attaching a file I was recently working on, so it would be nice to not click through my entire folder structure to locate the file I want to send as a link. Gmail currently does this with Google Drive.
2 votesWhen attaching files from Box to Gmail, users that have recently attached files can now see those files under Recents, and can additionally see Favorites.

Change the Box Logo
A box logo can’t be made of a cute font.
It should be boxy. Sharp angles. Makes sense.This is my interpretation to the box;

Get documents into and out of Box Notes from other formats
My organization likes Box Notes for their online-collaboration support. But when we have existing documents, we can't get them into a Box Note. And if we want to get them out, we can't do that either.
Add import and export support to Box Notes. I'd be delighted with Markdown, but my organization can work with just about any open format. Or publish your own proprietary format. XML or JSON, we don't care! Just make it possible to get documents into and out of Box Notes.
26 votesHi! We are looking into this feature and will let you know on our next steps.

Box Note "Active Shared Link" indicator on Sidebar Box
The only way currently to know if a Box Note has an Active Shared Link is to go to the folder which contains it (in the regular Box.com UI, not the Box Notes UI), and look for the "Active Shared Link" icon on the row for the .boxnote file.
I suggest adding this same icon to the sidebar box for the note in the Box Notes UI (i.e. the box you click to load the note in the main right-hand pane).

Ability to create Box reports by API
To import snapshot data (folders and files, collaborations etc.) to SIEM like Splunk, it's convenient that Box reports data can be created by API.

Calculated Fields in Box Sign
Box Sign does not currently have a way to calculate numbers that are filled out within specific fields. Examples include: setting up an order form, automatically populating contract term expiration date, and signing up forms with multiple choices.
Here's Adobe Acrobat Sign's functionality: https://helpx.adobe.com/sign/using/calculated-fields.html
And DocuSign's functionality: https://support.docusign.com/s/document-item?language=en_US&rsc_301=&bundleId=gbo1643332197980&topicId=crs1578456361259.html&_LANG=enus

Add "SSO Discovery Service Page" as a standard feature in Box login flow
We have 5 ID Providers. Box proposed "SSO Discovery Service" to connect 5-IdPs and a Box tenant. But "Discovery Service" needs to build a public web site. We cannot build that site because of their security policy. Please prepare discovery page as a standard feature in Box login flow.
72 votesNot planned for now. When we update admin login flow in FY20 H2, this will be under consideration.

Show full filename in Box Search
Box Search cuts off long file names. If the file name is prefaced with the date or other info, the information one actually needs from the file name may be hidden from the user.
This can be solved by making the Box Search window larger, making it as large as the longest filename, or by showing the filename when a user mouses over the filename or file icon, or when a user uses the arrow keys to select (but not yet open) a file in the Box Search results.

I want to save Copilot for Microsoft 365-generated content directly to Box
Currently, when I use Copilot’s generative AI features, the only default save destination is OneDrive—Box isn’t even an option. For those of us who live and breathe Box it would be fantastic if we could save Copilot-generated content directly to Box and keep everything in one place.
Right now, every time Copilot asks, “Save to OneDrive?” I feel like saying, “Nice try, Copilot, but my heart belongs to Box!” Please help us Box fans avoid this daily heartbreak and make Box a first-class citizen for Copilot saves. Thank you!
〈Copilot for Microsoft 365で生成したコンテンツを直接Boxに保存したい〉
現在、Copilotで生成AI機能を利用し作成したコンテンツの保存先は、OneDriveがデフォルトとなっており、Boxを選択することができません。
