Add "Open in Box Drive" function
Add an "Open in Box Drive" UI option for the web app.
This solves the problem of identifying a file or folder in the web app, wanting to work on the file or folder in Box Drive, and needing to leave the Web App to navigate through several steps to find that file in Box Drive.Ideally this should only be active on hosts that have Box Drive installed; it could be not presented, or disabled, on other hosts.
For hosts that have Box Drive installed, this would allow:
1. When activated for a folder, that folder as presented by…9 votes -
Limit the amount of data a user can download to prevent data theft by employees.
Limit accidental or intentional bulk downloads.
An ex-employee intentionally or accidentally connected his Network Attached Storage device to his Box account, and it downloaded big chunks of our Box data. We want to prevent very large amounts of data (client work and IP) from being downloaded by users, for example, within a logged-in session, within a set timeframe or by the size of the folder (ie. large folders over a specific size containing folders).
This could be set per user with an enterprise-level default eg. 5GB. If someone tries to bulk download, the admin is altered. Users can request that…

Integrated 360° image viewer
Integrate a 360-degree viewer into the preview to store, share and display 360° images with the possibility to pan and zoom around. Box is lacking this option right now and when uploading 360 images to Box they become flattened and distorted.
Here is an example of a 360° image: https://theta360.com/s/k5R3wbxz2ktwvKyBPpgdOFCwW

Instant Clipboard Copying for generated 'Share' links
I think it would be a good idea to have feature parity with the Google Drive sharing experience which immediately copies your share link to your clipboard when the permissions settings popover appears.

Change "Recents" list functionality
If a folder is shared with a user, the user sees all files in that folders in his recent list - no matter if the user has accessed the file himself, or the file was accessed by another user where the folder was shared with as well.
This doesn't make sense from my point of view. Especially in larger teams every day multiple files are generated and which the user never touches.Can you please change the functionality of the recent list in a way, that only files appear is the list which have been accessed by the user itself…

Unsubscribe from notification on folder / file level
Our organisation (ad agency, 200+ staff) works for 70+ customers. The customers are assigend to teams. In Box, every customer has a project folder, and a team is assigned to a folder (with editor rights).
But not all members of a team work for all clients of a team, and even if the work for the respective customer, they do not participate at all folder/files of a customer. Regards notification this means that all team members are spammed with notifications for clients they don't work for and files or folder they never participated on.I would mean a huge admin…

Display warning message on accidental uploads to specific folders
If a file is accidentally uploaded to a specific folder (viewer privileges granted) using BoxDrive, I would like the upload process to be stopped or a warning message to be displayed. Currently, files are displayed as if they were uploaded to the computer (locally) as a cache.
BoxDriveを利用して特定のフォルダ（ビューアー権限付与）へファイルを誤ってアップロード した場合にアップロード処理を停止or警告メッセージを表示して欲しい。 現状、パソコン（ローカル）上へファイルがキャッシュとしてアップロードされたように表示されてしまう。

Metadata export with file upon download
We use box widget on our website for file upload. We have a metadata form/template that gets filled out, however outside of box there is no way we can use that data. We are looking to automate some process's it would be nice if the information that is filled out could be extracted with the uploaded pdf file upon download. Once the pdf has been downloaded the metadata that goes with the file is gone. I'm told that this isn't possible currently with box. Hopefully some consideration on how box can be used in automation process outside of its own…

Allow folders or files to show up in multiple places but be the same object
This is a feature request.
I notice that sometimes team members copy or upload the same document to multiple locations in the same workspace or within the same workspace. For example, there is a shared folder with multiple sub-folders within it. The same file may live within many of those sub-folders. These are all separate files, so if someone uploads a new version of that file somewhere else, the other files are an older copy of that file.
The request would be to allow some way to show, or link to, a file that is elsewhere in the space within…

Collaboration Email Wording
The current wording of the collaboration email sent to users can cause confusion due to the name of the sender appearing in the "From" address. Recipients are not noticing the sender’s actual email address and assuming when they reply to the invitation, sent to them by [insert friendly name, e.g., Bob Smith], that their reply was received by Bob Smith.
The originating invitation sender’s name is included in the Subject line and body of the invitation, can the “friendly name” be removed from the From line? Can additional text be added to the From address that includes an all caps…

Reminder of auto deletion?
With auto deletion, could you tick a box if you would like to be reminded of the deletion, confirming you are happy to delete? With an option to extend the deletion date?
We would find this beneficial, as we set our files at a year from when the project ended, however sometimes our projects go longer. A reminder would be helpful to triple check we are happy with deleting.
Thanks

Folder and file reports are output in a tree format, making it easier to understand the folder hierarchy.
The new platform version of the Folders and Files report is sorted by creation date by default.
This does not fulfill the role of a folder tree report.
If folders are not specified, sorting by all folder/file IDs, etc. into a tree format is impractical and affects business operations(Japanese)
「フォルダ・ファイルレポートがツリー形式で出力されることによって、フォルダ階層が分かりやすくなる。」新プラットフォーム版のフォルダとファイルレポートはデフォルトで作成日順でソートされます。
これではフォルダツリーレポートの役割を果たしていません。
フォルダを指定しない場合、すべてのフォルダ・ファイルID等でツリー形式にソートするのは現実的ではなく業務に影響します。13 votes -
GeoIP Conditional Access
I'd like to see Box adding GeoIP filtering so that specified countries cannot access.
This is a standard we do through Office 365 where we don't even allow login attempts for most countries.We also have an exceptions list via IP address for safety to allow our office IP(s) to also access in addition to GeoIP filtering.

Allow exceptions for users/groups when setting shared link expiration at org level
We have auto-expiry and prevent users from modifying the expiration. We want to allow exceptions to either user/group/specific folder so we could have permanent links for storing files for web or other projects.

Separate folder move and copy function
As far as i understand, the move and copy folder function in Box Web is combined from a role perspective. That means a user must have Co-Owner rights to move a folder but also to copy a folder. I agree that moving a folder means deleting the folder on the source location which may need elevated role. But copying a folder only needs read access on the source folder. So it would be great to separate these two functions and make the copy function available to users who have editor role on the target folder and have at least previewer…

Re-usable recipient groups on Templates
It would be great to have a Template feature in Box Sign where we can set groups of people as signatories.
Now we can only upload a document and save it as a template to send out multiple times to different recipients for signature.
However a lot of industries (e.g. movie/filmmaking) would rather send same type of documents (e.g. petty cash form / contract / purchase order / time sheets / etc.) to the same group of people for signing.
For that purpose it would be way easier to upload the specific files, click a template and the previously added…2 votes -
Disabling Collections
Currently under Enterprise settings we only have the capability to disable "Collections Promotion" where users receive informational prompts about the feature, but we are in need of disabling the Collections feature for specific users or even the enterprise as a whole.

Allow inheritance in folder structure
Windows allows for folders to enable or disable inheritance from Parent folder to Child folders. This is needed in BOX so collaborators who don't need access or shouldn't have access to certain Child folders within a Parent folder can still navigate where access is needed and not expose sensitive data.
