I would like shortcut files created on Box Drive to be reflected on Box Web as well.
I am aware that shortcut files (.lnk) created in Box Drive (on Explorer) are ignored as a file type and cannot be synchronized.
However, in my work, I use Box Drive a lot and sometimes create shortcuts, but I can't share them because they are not synced, and they are deleted when I log out of the system.
I feel this kind of specification is very inconvenient.
I would love to see you respond to make this happen.(Japanese)
Box Drive(エクスプローラー上)で作成したショートカットファイル(.lnk)は、
無視されるファイルの種類として対象となっており同期が出来ないことは認識してます。
しかしながら業務上、Box Driveの利用が多くショートカットの作成することがありますが、
同期されないことで共有もできず、またログアウトしたことで削除されてしまう。
このような仕様だと大変不便に感じてます。
実現に向けて是非対応してほしい。103 votes -
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 -
Require Editing ONLY via Office Online for Certain Files (disable Box Edit at the file level)
Use Case: I have a spreadsheet that I know will be highly collaborative; as such, I want to prevent people from being able to use Box Edit with the file and I want to require that they edit it using Office Online due to enhanced co-authoring, etc.
Basically, this would be a 'only allow edits using Office Online'-type setting at the file level.

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?

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…

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.

Perform full file and folder inventory for users that includes the folders/files which they can access
Requesting to perform full file and folder inventory for users that includes the folders/files they have access to, not just the ones they own. Include fields like – date modified, created date, and any other file attributes normally included in the file and folder report.
The File and Folder reporting mechanism but it’s lacking features to perform an inventory across hundreds of specific folders (in an environment where a lot of folders have the same name).
The content manager, only reports on files that users own and they don’t own files in our taxonomy. The initial view looks good…

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.

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.

"Smart Access: Download restriction" for G-Suite
We want "Smart Access: Download restriction" to control the download/printing capability of G-Suite apps. We want the integration just like office online which restrict download/print on office online apps.
For security perspective, we want to minimize the risk of data breach, so we are planning to store the confidential files on box and restrict the content to be downloaded to the devices. However currently if user opened the files on G-Suite, the files can be downloaded or printed.

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

[File Request] cascade feature to allow granular uploading of files to a folder structure / subfolders.
[File Request] feature to allow uploading files to a folder structure / subfolders. The "Submit Files" page does not provide any context regarding the linked folder name without having to manually input this, and doesn't provide subfolders to allow the user to drill down and upload files into the subfolder of which they choose (with breadcrumbs of course to navigate back to the root folder share via the File Request URL. Currently users have to create a File Request per folder or invite users in to the parent folder as a "Previewer Uploader" in order to upload.
Alternatively, I'd…

Folders and Files Report - Include Subfolders
When you run the Folders and Files Report, and you filter down to run the report on a specific folder, you are unable to select the subfolders within that folder. This really limits the functionality of this report.
I request that you add the "Include Subfolders" toggle to the Folders and Files report (just as it exists in the User Activity Report)

Save full email files back to Box (not just attachments)
Users at General Atlantic would like to use Box to archive important emails. But saving .eml files to their machines and then uploading is clunky and is not possible on mobile devices. They've requested a more automated way to send emails to Box from Outlook and Outlook app.
