Allow for exceptions on the Download and Print Restriction security control.
Allow for exceptions on the Download and Print Restriction security control.
We want to restrict users from downloading files that have been identified as having PII. However, we would like a mechanism to allow users that have a business reason to download files. Either through a 'User Justification' similar to the 'External Collaborators Restriction' security policy or an approval workflow.

Show uploaded files in the recent page.
Show uploaded files in the recent page.
I do have cases that I want to view the files I uploaded recently. However, if I uploaded a file without previewing, it doesn't come up the list.

Box AI for Hubs - Address # of files in Hub
The Hub functionality works regardless of the number of files available to be viewed from the link(s) listed on the hub page. However, Box AI for Hubs has a restriction of 10,000 files that can be indexed, which includes files that may be nested under the link shown in the hub. Given this, it would be helpful if we could manually disable Box AI for Hubs on specific hubs that we know are indexed for over 10K files so that users do not get an error message on those hubs when they try to use Box AI. (Possibly hiding the…

Re-add 'Print' option to Shared File / Folder pages

Allow users to limit simultaneous uploads
We would like to control the number of uploads that upload simultaneously (ie ability to limit to 1). The belief is that, if files are uploading 5 at a time, and they fail 80% of the way through upload, you have to start again, whereas if it was uploading 1 at a time, and worked its way through 80 percent of the queue, less files would need to be retried

progress when move files
Similar to when Upload files to Box, show a progress bar when Move files within Box. This is particularly helpful when move over a large number of files and folders.

Ability to see (and if permitted, restore) deleted files
Box currently does not have the ability to show deleted files in a particular folder. Only the owner and the user who deleted files will see them in Trash but not by folder. With large numbers of files in multiple folders, this becomes quite unmanageable quickly and relying on the folder owner to restore files is unnecessarily restrictive.
Folders should have an option to see deleted files and if permitted (editor or higher, or a separate permission) allow users other than the owner and the user who deleted files to restore them.

Add a report that lists metadata set for folders and files.
There are many metadata templates, and each users can set them.
In this situation, being able to see in lists what metadatas are actually applied to which files/folders and what values are set can be very helpful in managing contents and metadata.102 votesThe ability to optionally include Metadata in Folders and Files report has been delivered and is generally available (GA).

Accurate display of number of files
Fixed the problem of inconsistent number of files
Inconsistencies in the number of files can occur when large amounts of data are owned or moved for business purposes.
There is a workaround for this in the support page, but it does not work in some cases.
Even if we can confirm the exact number of items in the report, the size may differ due to data inconsistencies.
We feel that it is inconvenient for business use to not be able to accurately grasp the number of data.
Please fix the inconsistency of the number of files.[日本語]

Preview files about xdw, xbd and xct in Box for iOS.
Please support xdw, xbd and xct files in Box for iOS.
Box for iOS can preview files supported by Box, such as PDF.
However, Box for iOS can not preview xdw, xbd and xct files (*1) for the following reasons.DocuWorks Viewer Light (iOS) (*2) implements Quick Look Preview Extension.
Thus, an app can preview xdw, xbd and xct files if the app implements QLPreviewController.
Although Box for iOS has already implemented QLPreviewController, previewing xdw, xbd and xct files are not supported by Box.*1)

Identify files that fail to sync using Box Sync
In my experience - Box Sync on Windows 10 - I often run into messages "N files could not be synced" - usually because a Mac user saved a file with a name Windows can't handle. If it's only one file, it tells me the name, but if it's more than one, it only shows the number. I would go into Box to rename the files - however, I cannot find any way to identify the offending one. Would love an option on Box Sync that showed the set of files that are throwing sync errors.

Ability to grant Metadata When Uploading Multiple Files in a File Request
Under the current Box specification (December 10, 2021), when uploading multiple files at the same time using a file request, all files are given the same metadata. To comply with the Electric Book Storage Act, I believe that when users upload multiple files using file requests in Box, metadata must be attached to each file. We strongly hope to add the ability to grant metadata to individual files to file requests.

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.23 votes -
scan .bak files
For heaven's sake allow box to scan .bak files - it's practically the only reason I'm using box! What's the point of a cloud back up system that won't back up backup files!!

*.jar files should not be opened like *.zip files
I sometimes share software patches with customers via Box. The files are often .jar... This is the file extension for Java Archives, which are a type of .zip format. However, unlike .zip, they are not intended to be opened by users. The Box interface (desktop at least) previews the files/folders inside a selected .jar file. It is confusing to the user. Instead, these files should be handled as downloads only.

Ability to exclude syncing certain files by type.
Box Drive - exclude syncing certain files by type. I use several software that use this lock file approach and the lock files should NEVER be synced. (sometimes for size reasons, sometimes for frequent uploads and deletes)
