Show Folder Size in 'Size' Column (In Addition to Item Count)
The webapp currently has a 'Size' column that shows item count for Folders, and item size for Files.

Sort Field Preference in Settings
My files and folders are all indexed with numbers. It would be helpful to always sort files and folders by name to keep the indexing order. However, Box keeps sorting by the "Updated" field, which completely messes up the indexing order. Is it possible to have a Sort Preferences in Settings so one could select which field should be the default for sorting?
Thanks.

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。

Folder setting: enable/disable file request
Feature that allow owner/co-owner of folders to enable or disable file request in the folder setting.
Currently, users can generate file request link in any folders with editor permissions. Some enterprise want to control (disable) usage of file request at the top-level folders depending on intended use.
e.g. disable file request link in [internal-only] folder.3 votes -
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.

We would like to have a clear indication of whether a file request link has been issued for a folder.
Currently, it's not immediately clear whether a folder has a file request issued.
We would like to have an icon display, similar to a shared link icon, so that it is visually clear when viewing the folder that a file request link has been issued.

フォルダでファイルリクエストリンクが発行されているか分かるようにしたい現在、ファイルリクエストが発行されているフォルダかすぐにはわかりません。

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…

Enhance description of "Shared Contacts" setting for User Permissions
Area of product: Admin Console > choose admin/co-admin user > Edit user details > Edit User Access Permissions > Shared Contacts > description bubble
Currently this describes "Allow this user to see all managed users. If enabled, this user will be able to access other managed users in their contacts when inviting collaborators. External users will not show up in their contacts unless they are already collaborating with each other."
However, if this is unchecked it also prohibits Admins/Co-Admins from searching for managed users in Reporting and other areas of the Admin Console. Which is not mentioned or hinted at…

'Not available' error message when accessing a link needs to be more specific.
Please fix the ambiguous 'Not available' and 'Unable to Download File on Box EMM' error messages when users attempt to click on links sent to them that they don't have access to.
Instead of users being sent shared links, they are being sent URL's for files/folders that only the sender has access to (as designed). They are asking for the error message to be more specific, and to say something like the following:
"The requested page does not exist, or you do not have permission to view it, or this is not a Box Shared Link. Please check the…2 votes -
Box Drive to notify users before logging out that files or folders not sycn up will be lost.
It will be helpful if users will be notified before logging out of Box Drive that all files or folders not sync up to Box will be lost . In this way, users will be able to check again on the problem items and save it on other location before proceeding on logging out. This will prevent loss of files.

So we used a password on a shared link that contains a greater than symbol and the link does not work
If you create a shared link with a password that contains a greater than symbol > it will not work.
Such as:
T^>&4zjbFzVAt the very least they should make it so that when you try to save a password with that symbol it throws an error right there on the form.
Thanks

Request for improvements to Box folders for Teams in Box for Teams V2
When using Box for Teams V2, we found that the auto-created folders for teams were heavy on operations.
I would appreciate it if you could add the following two functions.
1.When you delete a member from a team, you want to delete that member's collaboration from the team Box folder.
2.When the team itself is removed from Teams, remove all member collaborations from the team Box folder.1 vote -

Auto Expiration Collaborations - allowing for Editors to extend
Similar to how an editor can extend a shared link's expiration, it would be great if that functionality worked with extending the expiration for collaborations.

Add warning/prompt when moving your files to shared directory
It is possible to lose ownership of your own files by inadvertently moving them to a folder owned by a collaborator. This issue can be prevented by adding a warning or prompt before moving the file if the ownership of the file will be affected by the move.

List View of Marked For Offline Files
It is imperative that we have a view of which folders we have Make Available Offline. We can't hunt and peck through hundreds of folders with a Green Checkmark on it to Make Available Online Only when we're finished with a big "sync". This is already a hoop we're jumping through because we can't "sync" to an external drive so we have to manually manage internal Hard Drive space. A user should be able to see what they have marked for offline at a glance so they can easily reverse the storage affect on local hard drives.
