Increase size of left-side menu on Home screen
The left-side menu on the Home screen is too narrow and cuts off the names of folders/files saved under My Collections/Favorites.
Users should be able to set whatever width is needed for the menu.

Consistent TimeZone Reporting
Good morning,
I think it is important that all the reporting is consistent in the way it is generated. Right now there are three linked reports that are treated differently and make more difficult to compare them. Though the underlying purpose is different, it is clear that they are related and it would help a lot that they use the same exact time zone.These reports are:
- Platform Activity. Generated by using PST time zone.
- User Activity. Generated by using the report requester time zone.
- App Diagnostics. It allows to specify the time but it is based…13 votes -

Add ability for users to open a folder in Box Drive from the Web App
Add some kind of "open in Box Drive" option for a folder. Clicking this would cause Box Drive to open the appropriate folder locally.
16 votesThis seems like it would be better solved with a search improvement to Box Drive. If not, let us know in the comments.

Shared Link Default Setting
I propose that the default Shared Link setting be the strictest available setting "People in this Folder" rather than "People with the Link". In my opinion, the default setting should be the more confidential / private one and force the user to opt to share the link with outside parties. In my experience, many users have not understood to update that setting.

Bulk assign metadata attributes to multiple folders/files at one time
We were a previous heavy user of tags and our users enjoyed the ability to assign tags to multiple files at once in the old UI.
Because they have tens of thousands of users deployed, they often have the same attribute needed to be assigned to many files.
7 votesWhile we recognize the importance of this feature, it is not something we plan to introduce in the near term. 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.

Localize the name of "Classification" metadata template to user's language
User cannot name of "Classification" metadata template which is automatically created when the user create Classification policy. At least it should localize to Box admin's language (ex "分類" in Japanese)

Shield Malware Threat Detection False Positives on Excel Documents with Macros
Multiplan (160k ARR) turned on Malware Deep Scan and was getting 3-5 false positives per day because users across multiple departments often work on Excel Documents with Macros. Due to their process, users need to upload new versions of these Excel documents daily (they cannot use Version Control to handle this). So the IT team is being pinged every time a new version is added. This has been so overwhelming that the IT team has turned off Malware Detection. They will enable again if Macros are not accidentally flagged as potentially malicious.
41 votesFalse positives detections are a possibility with any malware detection tool. At Box, we want to make sure our customers have controls to manage alerts that are generated and stop any unnecessary noise. We have some additional detection filters for our malware detection rule on the proposed roadmap for this year.

Display folders owned by outbound collaborator when Admin instant login to managed user account
When Administrator instant login to managed user's account, it is not possible to see the shared folder from outbound collaborator. It makes it difficult for Administrator to monitor activities on outbound collaborations.
It is not required to allow Administrator seeing anything, but if they can at least see folder name and owner for outbound collaboration it could benefit Administrator

Sheild > [Download and Print Restriction], if "For Box Desktop" is enabled, the Office co-editing function should be available via a browser
Sheild > [Download and Print Restriction], if "For Box Desktop" is enabled, the Office co-editing function should be available via a browser.
We have applied Box Shield's [Download and Print Restriction] to "For Box Desktop" and [Microsoft Office Coauthoring Basics] via browser is also disabled.
Microsoft Office Coauthoring Basics] via a browser is also disabled.
Similarly, Office co-editing functions that are opened via a browser should not be restricted, since access in BoxEdit is not restricted.
Errors in opening the file in the browser cause confusion for the user.
Also, please add the following explanation to the Access Policy…30 votes -

I would like to be able to customzie the content preview window side bar
Once Box AI is enabled it takes the top spot as the default sidebar view in the content preview window. Some of my users would like the Activity Tab to load first, as they depend on seeing comments. Being able to customize the sidebar icons would be great
