  1. File Request - Assign to Other Collaborator Permission Levels

    Please allow Editors to send File Requests. Currently, only Owners and Co-Owners can send file requests. It would be extremely helpful if Editors could as well. In our organization, we have many with editor rights that could take advantage of this feature and would gain great efficiency . Making these users a Co-Owner will not work with our current permissions segregation.

  2. Integration with Azure Information Protection

    Azure Information Protection allows for the classification of files/content. I would like for Box to recognize the Azure IP Classification that has been applied to any given file once uploaded to Box and have a corresponding Box Classification policy applied to the file.

  3. Move the "Select" checkbox to be near the filename

    (Box web app) I used to be able to select multiple files to move or download by clicking near the filename in Box. I now have to use the "Select" checkbox, which is far to the right of the filename, and I select the wrong files because of this. Please move the "Select" checkbox immediately to the left of the filename to easily select multiple files, or return previous functionality to select multiple files by clicking on them.

  4. File size upload limit - Option to choose any file size from 1MB - 150GB

    I am suggesting a file size upload limitation setting to be lower than the existing 2GB.

    The reason why is because some companies who are hyper sensitive to malware and virus issues want the ability to deep scan EVERY file uploaded into Box. Currently, deep scan is only able to scan files that are less than 200MB in size. This is a gap that can be solved by reducing the maximum file upload size into Box to 200MB.

    While this greatly restricts the size of files being uploaded into Box, it gives the customer an option to choose one over…

  6. Box Content Preview: Allow File to be Renamed in Preview UI Element

    Files can only be renamed in the Content Explorer, requiring navigation away from the file to rename while in the Content Preview element. The request is to allow files to be renamed while previewing the file.

  7. Allow selecting multiple folders in Folders & Files Report, instead of one folder

    When reports are required for tens or hundreds of separate folders, it'd be unrealistic to run reports one by one separately.

  8. Request for Improvement of BOX Drive Proxy Server Authentication Response Function

    BOX Drive is not working properly in our environment.
    We recognize that BOX Drive is designed to read Pac files, but the communication is succeeding up to the proxy server according to the Pac file.
    However, it seems that it is not able to respond to the authentication response of the proxy server.

    As a result, when we open files in our Office products (Excel and Word) that cannot be opened in a web browser, we have to download the file once from
    BOX.
    This method is not productive for us.

    As a solution, we would like to be…

  9. Locating who/when files are Moved/Removed (accidentally or on purpose)

    If a user moves/renames/removes files, the URLs shouldn't simply be dead links now. Please record information so that impacted users know When the file was moved/removed, and WHO did the action.
    I recently had Box Notes and Folders get moved or removed. And while I know who SHOULD have been the owner of the content, anyone else having problems finding the content wouldn't know who to contact.
    So if a box link was previously valid, and that content has moved or removed, leaving some breadcrumb for the user, about who to contact, when the content was moved/removed, etc, can…

  10. Metadata Inheritance (Folder-Level) via Cascade Policies

    Allow metadata fields to be applied at the folder level, with files in that folder (or added to that folder) automatically inheriting the metadata fields AND potentially the values associated with those fields.

  12. Slow when folder with many files/folders is being displayed in iOS App.

  15. google shared drive

    Allow Google Drive "Shared drives" content to be copied directly to the integrated Box extension in Gsuite. Currently, this is only available from "My Drive". The work around is to copy "Shared drives" content to "My Drive" (which in itself is awkward, because only files, and not folders, can be copied directly in the cloud), and then copy content from "My Drive" to Box.

  17. Collaborator Clean Up

    Collaborator Clean Up - In Account Settings / Collaborators, we want to add the ability to click on any collaborator and see what files and folders they have access to. When looking at the list, have a button available to remove them from specific folders as needed. This will be especially helpful when performing a CBN, Audit or Digital Clean up.

  18. Box for Office templates

    We have company letterhead templates we are meant to use for all internal and external files. I would love the ability to open up a new/blank Document or Spreadsheet with those attributes already assigned (header/footer/formatting for headers, bullets, etc.).
    This would also "force" users to use the letterhead for uniform documentation.
    Thanks for your consideration!

  20. Enable to obtain information about the uploader of a file uploaded via file request.

    I would like to use the Box API to obtain information about the uploader of a file uploaded via a file request.
    In the current specification, the "createdby" and "modifiedby" names of these files are both "Anonymous User" even if the file was uploaded by a user who is logged into Box.
