Allow direct download links to excel sheets
Issue: User wants to be able to add direct download links to excel sheets (set to people in the company) and have the built-in Excel browser (I think it's a mini version of IE on Windows) recognize an authenticated browsing session
What currently happens:
User inserts/clicks on link > new window pops up > user must authenticate box account > content is inserted into excel correctly
If the user closes the document and reopens it > clicks on the link > the window pops up again > user has to select Part of company X? Continue > then it populates…

Move Custom Footer + Custom Support Info Back to Footer, Not '?' Icon
In the Legacy UI, the Custom Footer and Custom Support Contact Info (as configured in Enterprise Settings -> Custom Setup) both appeared (logically) in the actual footer of the webapp.
In the new UI, these items were moved into the '?' that's actually in the header.
REQUEST: Move these items back to the footer - or at least the Custom Footer fields - likely in the bottom left of the webapp when the left sidebar is expanded.

Add Mac package support to Box files accessed via the iOS Document Picker
On iOS, we're using UIDocumentPickerViewController along with the UIDocumentPickerModeOpen to save and later edit files 'in place.'
Unfortunately box.com converts document bundles to zip files without further notice on the file extension. This breaks any attempt to open and edit files 'in place' on iOS and on OS X.

Enable "Login with Box Account" Functionality similar to Twitter & Google Accounts
Add the ability to enable their users to log in with their Box account by providing a button alongside the Google and Twitter buttons within our application.
While it is true that this can be done with standard OAuth, it is a bit awkward and clunky so isn't a great developer or user experience. We are looking for something similar to the SDK and tools offered by companies like Google.

Add "type" filters from Web App to search API endpoint
Currently Box supports passing in document extensions, or searching by item type (file, folder). Please add the same filter options that is exposed in the web app search to developers. Specifically, the "type" dropdown that includes items like:
[document, audio, box note, drawing, etc.]The workaround is for the developer to create their own set of these filters - but this can be challenging based on the number of filetypes and desire to keep experience the same with search in their app as compared to the web app.

File type icons need to be different between audio and video files.
In the new Web App, audio and video files have the same icon, whereas in the legacy interface- the icons were different.
This is small but extremely important since we need to be able to see those differences from a quick glance and this is preventing the rest of our account from moving into the new UI.

File downloads should be counted in reporting/access stats when the enclosing folder is downloaded as a whole
Consider Folder A with subfolders AA, AB, and AC.
10 files named "1" through "10" in each subfolder.
If folder "A" is downloaded, none of subfolders/files are counted in usage logs or access stats. They should be counted as "downloaded".

Dynamic access permissions to content based on location/device/network etc.
Based on certain factors, a user will have Editor level permissions on content from their work computer in their office, but accessing Box from their mobile device at home grants them only Viewer level permissions

Restrict content creation feature to enable/disable co-admins from creating root level folder
We would like an additional control that enables/disables co-admins from creating root level folders. They should be able to perform all other folder actions, copy, move, delete, but not allowed to create. This enhancement would not apply to the Main Admin.
This would help ensure that locked down folder structure are maintained, minimizing user error and guaranteeing compliance and oversight. This would also facilitate making sure that Governance policies are in place for all content without admin monitoring required for newly created folders/content uploaded to 'unauthorized locations'

Access Stats - Re-Add Access Stats Badge/Icon in File List
Access stats (# of previews, downloads, and comments) used to be displayed below the file name in legacy.
They are now shifted over to the right hand side bar in the new UI, which also requires that a file be selected.
