Box Drive folders should automatically refresh when you open them.
When you open a folder in Box Drive, it should automatically refresh that folder. There's no scenario where you're opening a folder and you WANT an older version of it. If you're opening it, you intend to interact with it somehow, and in order to do so effectively you must have the most up to date version of its contents. Manually refreshing is tedious.

Ability to set default permission on folder level
The customer would like to implement the feature “Default Collaborator Permissions” per folder.
We’re providing it only per tenant at the moment, so it affects to all folders/files in tenant if changed.
As a result, it probably not convenient such as the user changes collaborator permission from Viewer to Editor every time.
So, the customer wants an ability to set default permission per folder.9 votes -

Stop disabling access to content when its owner account is deactivated.
If content owner's account is disabled, any collaborators lose access to said content. A different workflow needs to be put into place to allow these collaborators access to content previously shared with them.
Either automatically transfer ownership to a co-owner or when the original owner account is being suspended, add options for preserving access to other collaborators.

We are searching for a file and there is no easy way to see the folders in which the resulting files are contained.
5 votesWe are not currently planning to implement this feature within search. Containing folder information will continue to be available through file previews and in the browse view.

Add themes to folders
I wanted to deliver a folder of images to a client and they've asked me to theme or brand the folder so they can forward to their guests. This would be great to be able to do.

Changing default columns view in File Explorer with Box Drive
When using Box Drive on Windows 10, and accessing through File Explorer, the default columns are set as: Name | Size | Item type | Date modified.
I would like to be able to change those default columns and their order.
Currently, File explorer has a functionality that allows the default column view to be changed for all folders (View tab > Options > "Change Folder and Search Options" > "View" tab > and select "Apply to Folders)
However, this functionality does not work for trying to change the default column view for folders viewed through Box Drive.

Ability for folder co-owners to recieve additional collaboration notifications
In Box, when a collaborator invites another collaborator, the owner of the folder will be notified by email that the collaborator has been added. I would like you to add the ability to send this notification to co-owners as well. Folders are often not managed by the owner alone, and co-owners need to get as much information as the folder owner.

Ability to save Sort preference
Hello! I'd like to be able to save a sort preference for all my folders for the team. So if I number the folders they always appear in name, ascending order. Instead each time you enter a folder you have to sort it.

Can Box provide us an API which allows us to clone a folder along with its sub folders?
We have a predefined folder structure as a template, and we'd like to create new folders following this template's hierarchy. As Salesforce imposes limits on external system callouts, if the Box team could offer an API for this purpose, it would enable us to accomplish this task

Possibility to share with non-Box users annotated files including the annotations.
Annotating files, especially pdfs, inside Box would be much more useful to me if I could share the annotated file, including the annotations, with non-Box users. A setting on the shared link dialog like "Allow persons with the link to view annotations" would be a great enhancement.
Thanks

Consistent data size output from folder and file report
Don't shorten, or allow us to choose if we want the file sizes shortened (KB, MB, GB) when calling the Files & Folders report. Full data sizes would allow for much more consistent and streamlined ingestion into data analytics tools like PowerBi.

When user has URL for shared link, they need to type it in email or browser, even Box App is there. Thus, would request to have ability in iOS (or Mobile) Apps to allow URLs to be typed directly in Box App.

Allow BoxDrive search to be limited to files and folders names
The current BoxDrive search will search the contents of the file as well.
We would like to be able to narrow down the search target when searching, because sometimes it is enough to search only the file name or folder name.
(In Japanese)
現在のBoxDriveの検索はファイルの中身まで検索対象となっています。
ファイル名やフォルダ名だけ検索で十分な場合があるため、検索時に検索対象を絞れるようにしてほしいです。6 votes -
Add breadcrumbs to folders in the Box + Outlook integration.
Due to the fact that we have many folders with the same name, the Box + Outlook integration would be significantly more useful if it could include some breadcrumbs to indicate which folder the file was in.

Edit Box files directly in Teams
When files are stored directly inside of Teams, you can click on these files and “Edit in Teams” directly. If you click on files sourced from Box, however, you get an ugly preview of the file and have to navigate to Box in order to make edits, which is a clunky experience.
Doing this will require Box to inherit sharing rules as defined in Teams. In other words, I should be allowed to at least view if not edit files shared with me in Teams, even if I don't have access to the underlying folder in Box. Perhaps it could…

Box Hubs - Ability to Share Hub with All Managed Users
We have a number of Hubs that are geared towards providing information to all employees. As such, it would be great to be able to share a Hub with all managed users. In addition, it would be helpful to have the ability to share any file or folder with all managed users without having to create and manage and all users group or adding multiple groups to a file/folder to accomplish this.
