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.

Allow External Collaborators to Search Shared Content for Metadata
If an enterprise shares a folder to outside collaborators, and the content of this folder includes thousands of documents with assigned metadata templates, the external collaborator does not have the ability to filter search that shared content based on the metadata applied.

Visible folder tree (selected folders) and Request access to folders
We face challenges with permission management and ensuring relevant access to folders for staff outside of their Division/Department/Countries. One great solution would be to have the possibility to display part of a folder tree, and to be able to request access to some folders within that folder tree. In this way, a funding person from an affiliate HQ could request access to the EA or PA country’s funding folder to the country funding focal point. This could technically be managed with a very complex use of Box Groups, but it would be an extremely useful alternative solution.

External user verification via TOTP for shared links
Please consider adding a TOTP verification option for shared links. You could allow a link to be shared to an email address but require TOTP verification via that same email address. This would help verify that only someone with access to the email address we shared with can access the content without forcing them to signup for a free Box account.
Thank you

Allow edit access on shared links
Currently, we can choose the access permissions for shared links. However, we want a way to grant edit permission after accessing the link. (Not through the way of adding a collaborator and then sending a shared link to invited people)
We would like to request that you consider adding the edit permission which we can set for shared links
in your future release.It is very difficult for us when we want to edit files for multiple people temporarily because we have to create a dedicated area and assign the permissions every time.
It would also be very helpful if…

Make admin console reports (Folders & Files, Collaborations, Shared Links) run at scale
I saw on the Community site that there is a 10 million item limit, but my company has way more items than that. It is important for us to have these reports for security audits.

Disable expiration period change for public shared links only
Currently it is possible to set up automatic expiration period for public shared links in Admin Console, which is an important security feature. However, users can extend the expiration period in Shared Link Settings. It would be more secure to disable expiration period extension for public shared links by users, while allowing them to change expiration periods for other types of shared links (company or collaborators only)

Remove multiple collaborators from folders
Box currently does not have a way to remove multiple collaborators at bulk.
Currently, admin needs to manually remove multiple users by opening the appropriate folder and removing users one at a time.Suggestion can also apply to removing collaborators from multiple folders.

Easier way to create a bookmark in Box from shared link generation
Bookmark takes too many steps even when saving a Box's shared link. It should be easier to create a bookmark of a shared Link from adoption perspective.
As-Is: 1. Generate a shared link 2. Copy the link 3. Move to folder where I want to save a bookmark 4. Create Bookmark and paste&name the link
To-Be: 1. Generate a shared link 2. Prepare a prompt (probably in the shared Link generation popup) and select "Create Bookmark" and user can select folder they would like to save the link in within the same prompt 3. Save the bookmark (without actually moving…

Add further columns to Shared Links report
In order to prepare a csv file to bulk update existing shared links, it is necessary to
A) run TWO reports - a BOX USERS Report (CLI command), and a SHARED LINKS ReportIf however, you wish to provide a list of shared links to each Box user who created the link(s), then a THIRD report is needed, a USER ACTIVITY Report (for max years, Items Shared action). This report needs to be filtered to show only the latest date/user that created the link (NB a shared link may be created more than once)
B) then the BOX USERS Report…

New Shared Link Setting for OTP to Specific Email Addresses
Proposing a new Shared Link setting or type that allows users to send a shared link to a specific email address which requires a OTP password, similar to the authentication used when an individual is sent a Sign Request via Box Sign.
This would allow for a simpler, more secure user experience when sharing one-off links than password-protecting a public link.

Allow Us To Move Collaborator Folders to a sub-folder without removing the permissions
When a user shares a folder with us it sits in our Root folder. Can these show up in a Shared folder to save our Root folder having a load of odd name folders. We believe you can do this in Dropbox.
ideally we need to be able to change the folder name at our end too without amending it at the user end.

Maintaining Login State via Shared Links
We have encountered an issue with Box Hubs when accessed via shared links. Specifically, when users access a Hub page through a shared link and then navigate to folders within the Hub, the login state is not maintained. As a result, users are treated as non-logged-in visitors and cannot perform actions such as downloading files.
This behavior effectively prevents internal sharing of Hubs using shared links, which limits collaboration capabilities.
We kindly request that you improve the functionality so that users accessing Box Hubs via shared links can maintain their logged-in status throughout navigation within the Hub. This enhancement would…
