Unify behavior when creating shared links.
Box Canvas files in folders with the 'Only folder owners and co-owners can send collaborator invites' setting enabled cannot create a shared link using the 'Share' button at the top right of the edit screen if you have Editor and Viewer Uploader permissions. ('Share' button is grayed out.)
Editor and Viewer Uploader users need to create a shared link from the file listing screen.However, Office files and Box Notes in the same folder can create a shared link using the 'Share' button on the Preview and Edit screens.
It is confusing for users if only Box Canvas files behave…16 votes -
Checking last accessed date and user on folders
Adding a feature where you are able to see the last time a certain folder was accessed along with the name of the person who accessed it. Similar to how it's done with google drive. This will help companies strengthen their security over data shared on Box Drive as this will allow them to keep track of who's accessing the files/folders. Especially when it comes to collaborators and shared links, you will be able to keep track of who has accessed these folders and when.

Shared Link Details: Add 'Last Usage' Column
The Shared Link Details report is a great report currently that provides admins a wealth of information when performing an 'inventory' or security review of all existing shared links.
One additional column that would be very helpful to include is a 'Last Usage' column that would provide a date entry for each shared link.
Usage is defined as the last time someone actually used that link in a browser. This is helpful to admins to be able to know if a link is still being used or not (prior to disabling it for security reasons.)17 votes -

Ability to access Sub-links under shared folders on mobile
Our agency staff commonly sends out content links to customers by navigating to a file or folder under an existing shared folder link, then copying that link and directing customers to the specific content without creating an additional shared link. This is valuable to us because we don't want hundreds of shared links, the original content owner may not be available and we want to direct our customers as quickly and precisely as possible.
However, we found that there is an issue with this method. Those sub-links work just fine for someone with a desktop browser, but if you try…

Support Password-Protected Shared Links for Box Notes
There's a known issue/limitation currently (https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Your-Content/Box-Notes-Notices-and-Known-Limitations/ta-p/340) where Box Notes do not work correctly when the shared link is password-protected.
REQUEST: Allow Box Notes to have password-protected shared links just like any other file on Box.
23 votesThis is not a priority for the team at this time. We will reconsider with additional customer demand.

Embed Allowing Search Capability within folder
Box embed should allow search within folders when using public/open shared links to the folder. This would be helpful and would allow users who are not logged in to search content shared.

Expire all shared links at parent-level folder
Request the ability to expire all shared links generated within a parent folder on a selected date. Shared links should still be able to be generated independently on files, subfolders, etc. but have the ability to control & manage the expiration holistically at the parent level.
2 votesWe do not plan to implement this for the time being. We will reconsider with additional demand or use cases.

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.

Access policies for individual folders
Would it be possible to set up access policies that can be applied per-folder instead of by Classification label?
We have Ethical Walls and security concerns where we need to prevent sharing of files of Client A with Client B and also with preventing individual users from being shared folders.
One way to do this would be classification policies - but I have far more clients than the twenty five label limit.
The way around this would be to allow access policies by folder, regardless of classification, as well as the Box-wide access policy for unclassified content.
Client A…

Shield Shared Links: Password Requirement
Passwords for public links are wonderful, however, the capability to enforce all links (even those with internal or collaborator scope) would be beneficial for users and content security. If this password requirement could be tied to classifications as an access policy, that would make it increasingly difficult for negligent or malicious actions on Box content. Currently, we can only decrease the scope available for shared links, but by requiring a password, there will be additional adoption for Box and Shield, especially within highly regulated industries that require external or public distribution of content.

Change wording of a shared file to a more specific title other than "Shared"
When a Shared Link is created, the file bar in the Web App shows the term "Shared".
It would be beneficial if this showed the specific nature of the shared link, for example instead of "Shared" the "Share" button would change to "In Your Company", "In This Folder", "Everyone".
2 votesThis is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

I would like the "Shared Link Report" to display information about the issuer of the shared link
Currently, the "Shared Link Report" does not output information about the issuer of a shared link, so you will need to check this in the "User Activity Report."
It is very inconvenient to have to print out two reports each time, so we would like to request an improvement to the functionality so that information about the issuer of the shared link is also displayed in the "Shared Link Report."

Bulk Shared Link Generation
A user level ability to generate shared links in bulk in Box webapp. A little background, we are supplying images of our product to major dept stores (think Macy's, Dillards, Nordstrom, Kohl's, etc). These are the images they used to post our product on their web sites. We essentially have to fill out their forms with our product attributes with links to the image. We create 1000's of products annually, this my need to have a listing of all the links.
