  3. Folders and Files Classification in Content Manager Console

    Folder and File Classification should be shown in the content manager console so the admins would be able to know the kind of content they are dealing with.

  4. Folder tree reporting based on user permission

    Cannot run a folder tree report out of the admin console due to size constraints. We wants to see folders, “where user is the owner or co-owner.”

  5. Combine Executed Signed Docs and Signature Log

    Currently, when you send a document to be signed, the signed executed document and signature log are saved as separate files. It would be nice if the signed doc and signature log were one document and saved as an updated version of the original document. Currently, it turns 1 document into 3 documents, and clutters up the folders.

  6. Hide contributors on Box Hubs

    Customers need the ability to hide who their published Hubs are shared with. They are sharing information with multiple customers who may be competitors of one another, and want to prevent them from seeing who else is accessing the information.

  7. Ability to rearrange the image files displayed on Box Drive and Box Web

    For image files (photos), such as jpg and png files, there is a Date taken item in the "Properties".
    On Box Drive and Box Web, We wants to organize the photos by descending or ascending order based on the Date taken.
    However, since [Box Drive] and [Box Web] do not have the Date taken attribute, files cannot be organized by the date and time they were taken.
    Thus, we would like you to add the Date taken attribute.

  8. Save Sorting Preferences

    When using Box in-browser, create a setting to change the default sorting preference. For example, so you can make the default sorting for all folders Name, Ascending. This is not currently an option and means every time you open a folder you need to manually resort it, as the default sorting is always set to Updated, Ascending.

  9. Folder path under Trash

    Under Trash, please add "folder path". If there was a bulk delete of many files in a folder, we want to confirm the file belongs in the folder path, before we restore the files.

  11. Sort underscores consistently

    We would like for Box to sort files and folders the same as our computers. Right now, files and folders with an underscore at the beginning of the name are sorted at the end, but our computers sort them at the beginning.

  14. Metadata Versioning History

    As we need to meet specific regulatory or compliance requirements, it's helpful to have a history of the metadata attributes that are applied to a folder or file.

    It would be ideal if this was versioned on files/folders in the UI or reportable via user reports.

    Although we do not plan to introduce this feature in the near term, we recognize its importance. We will certainly keep this in mind for future roadmap inclusion and we will keep the status of this request updated to accurately reflect our current position.

  15. Box Relay support for "move folders to different owners"

    We are aware that Box has a recommended maximum number of items owned per owner (1 million items), and it is recommended to divide it into multiple owners if the number exceeds the limit.

    Based on the above, our company, which owns more than 100 items, operates by dividing the data into multiple owners.

    According to Box's recommendations, it's easy to assume that when you use Box, an action occurs that moves the owner to a different folder.
    We strongly hope that this behavior will be supported even when using BoxRelay, because it would significantly reduce the convenience of BoxRelay…

  16. Applying folder exceptions/exclusions to Classification policies

    Would like to apply folder exceptions/exclusions to Classification Policies. Currently, we can apply to a selected group of folders, but we have an organizational need to be able to apply a classification policy to all content and add a small selection of folders to exclude from that classification policy.

    not planned  ·  Anonymous responded

    Definitely understand why our customers ask this and agree it would be useful.

    However, it is a fairly large amount of work to get this implemented and I am not sure it would be used often.

    I am going to mark it as “Not Planned” right now, but if we hear this request come up more often, we can review adding it to the backlog.

  18. Box for Microsoft Office co-authoring permissions per folder

    I propose the ability to change the setting for each folder regarding whether or not Box co-authorship is enabled.
    With the current Box for office co-authoring feature, all folders have the coauthoring feature turned on.
    I would like to have a switch so that some folders are on and some are off.

    Boxの共著の可否について、フォルダ毎に設定を変更する機能を提案します。
    現在のBox for officeの共著機能では、全てのフォルダが共著機能がオンになってしまいます。
    あるフォルダはオン、あるフォルダはオフというように、スイッチをつけてほしい。

  19. Improve the de-provisioning process in Box

    Improve the de-provisioning process in Box so that old content isn't stored when it's not needed, and if it is needed, the right people are taking over ownership of the content. Workflow should look something like this: -User leaves company and is removed from AD group or marked somehow as "removed" -Collaborators on their shared folders are notified that they should take ownership of the folders, if the content is still needed. For example "you have 30 days to take ownership of X folder." -When they click to take ownership, the folder/file is now owned by them and other…

  20. Fix file/folder size, counts, dates and storage

    I'd like to preface this by saying that this is a bug that needs to be fixed, not an idea. Even so, Box suggested we post this here to get others to chime in and say that this should be fixed.

    This is a problem that's been around for at least 1.5 years.

    Often, when an account's folders and files are transferred to someone else, the account from which the data was transferred still shows something greater than 0 bytes owned. This becomes a problem for deleting that user, because we can't be sure if the transfer worked, and we…
