Option to revert accidentally moved files/folders
More often than not users accidentally move files/folders by mistake.
Reverting is nothing but a complete and avoidable nightmare.
The current process is horrendous. Running a report on moves only gives you info on WHO moved the folder and where it was ORIGINALLY. After finally searching for and locating the folder, the Admin Console gives you no options to move the folder. You instead have to granting yourself permission to the parent folder, navigating to your personal Box account and make the move manually. I hope I'm not crazy but this process is in no way intuitive or fun…

More efficient way to get metadata on files in search
Search by metadata returns a list of files. That list isn't much use without knowing the metadata it matched. To use Box's metadata for anything past the initial search query that's related to display, each individual search result must be queried for its metadata.
4 votesWe are now in the process of rolling out the new Metadata Query capability to all Box enterprises and expect to be complete by the end of June 2020.

Select multiple trigger events in the BoxRelay workflow
I want to select multiple events as triggers in Box Relay workflows.
There is a request to build a workflow triggered by events when files are stored in a specific folder.
Events for when new files are stored in a folder include types such as "New Upload," "Move," and "Copy."
With the current specifications, only one event can be selected per workflow. To create such workflows, we need to be able to select multiple trigger events.■Japanese

該当のフォルダに対してファイルが格納された場合、それらのイベントをトリガーにワークフローを構築したいというご要望があります。フォルダに新しいファイルが格納されるイベントは、「新規アップロード」、「移動」、「コピー」といった種類があります。現在の仕様では、1つのワークフローでイベントは1つしか選択できません。このようなワークフローを作成するために、トリガーのイベントを複数選択できる必要があります。2 votes -
Automatic email response for file request submitter
Would like a feature whereby the person submitting files using Box File Request receives an automatic confirmation email with a customizable message. For example, after the submitter uploads files using the File Request web widget, that person gets a email to the effect of, "Thank you for contacting us. A team member will review your submittal and follow up within 24 hours." The person would be required to provide an email address but not required to have a Box account. Many of our external customers send us application materials using File Request, and then they contact us separately wanting to…

Add the ITEM ID to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder) in order to join to Files and Folder report on ID
Add the item id to the User Activity report (when activity is against a file or folder). This would allow the User Activity events to be joined to the Files and Folders report data in order to report on activity against files and folders. An example report would be a list of all activity (Downloads, Previews, etc...) for a specific Box account. Currently the User Activity report only shows the activity that a specific user has done, but not what activities have been done against the content owned by a specific user. This would allow for a wide range of…

File Shortcuts
I want to be able to have file shortcuts. They are just pointers to a file that can be placed in other folders throughout the file system. This makes it seem like there are copies of the file in multiple folders and all of the copies get updated whenever one gets updated because its actually one file with a bunch of references pointing to it.
33 votesWe understand the convenience that implementing this feature would bring, but recommend using the existing Bookmarks feature as a more efficient and simplified means for achieving the desired behavior.

Support for .IMA files in Box DICOM Viewer
I have a few DICOM files with the Siemens IMA extension. These files are fully compatible, just carry a different extension. In all other software they can be imported just like .dcm files. On Box I can even change the extension from .ima to .dcm and use it in the Box DICOM Viewer. Please enable support for this (and possibly other?) file extension.

Improve preview window navigation
When checking previews in the Web app the Previous button continuously moves if you go between files that have single or multiple pages. With multiple-page files, a thumbnail pane appears which pushes the Previous arrow around making it a nuisance to preview files smoothly.
Please put the thumbnail pane inside the preview area so the Previous button doesn't jump around. Also, it would be really nice to move between files with the left and right keys on the keyboard, wouldn't it?
Thank you.6 votes -
Create one of "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs
In Teams V2 integration, when you add a Box app to a team from the left menu, Apps >Box> Add to Team > Select the team you created > Set Tab, you may see "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs created.
Please improve the functionality so that only one of the tabs is created, as users may be confused as to which tab to use.4 votes -
Request for Early Improvement of Upload Speed for Large Files in BoxZones Environment (excluding the United States).
While improvements have been made in the past regarding upload speed in the NonZones environment, these improvements have not yet been implemented in the Zones environment.
There is no significant difference for small to medium-sized files, but there is a noticeable difference for large files of 1GB or more, with a roughly threefold gap observed in multiple upload speed measurements.
As employees regularly upload large-sized drawings, photos, videos, and other data in their daily tasks, this disparity leads to missed opportunities and decreased productivity.
Particularly, when transitioning from the NonZones environment to the Zones environment, it results in a deteriorated…

Increase upload limit for files in a folder
For people like myself who have a large number of files that need to be categorized in appropriate folders it is imparative that I make uploading easy for my team members.
Box only allows 500 files per folder, which I understand is to prevent many files being lost at the same time, which I am thankful for.
BUT....
It would be great that during the upload process that box.com automatically created another folder to accommodate any files over the 500 mark.Don't you think?

The "Application Restriction" should be configurable with the same granularity as the "Download and Print Restriction".
(Japanese follows English)
In the "Download and Print Restriction" section of Box Shield's Access Policy, it is possible to apply download, print, move and copy restrictions to Browser/Mobile/BoxDrive by specifying Managed/Outside Users and Owner/Co-Owner/Editor.
On the other hand, third-party applications are not included in this restriction, and only downloads can be restricted under "Application Restrictions".
We would like to be able to set "Application Restriction" to the same granularity as "Download and Print Restriction, as it provides a more consistent user experience if the same controls are applied regardless of which device or application is accessing the site.

Add an option to File Request only for managed users
We would like to gather files from internal managed users avoiding spoofing. Currently, one way is to use collaboration as uploader permission but uploader can still see file name each other where multiple users are collaborated. We need to make users authenticate and do not want to let them see information of other's uploaded files.
4 votesthe file request can be setup to support only allowing managed users.

All Files External Shares
Within the All Files view it would be nice to be able to separate and collapse the External Collaborations (Grey Folders) to the internal folders. In addition, make the separation collapsible to clean up the interface and provide a better de-linearisation between internal and external content.
