Organizing Shared folders. Can't rely on collaborators to do it.
It would be very helpful if I could move shared folders into a "folder" (choose your term for some thing that would mimic a folder) that would allow me to group all shared folders together. Ideally, I would be able to create my own hierarchy within that folder to be able to organize all of the shared folders how I want vs. just having every shared folder cluttering up my Box root level. I know I can use Collections, however, Collections don't show up in Box Drive.

Trigger E-mail notification for annotation comments
Currently, Box does not send E-mail notifications when a reviewer uses Annotation tools such as Markup, Comment on Region, and Highlight and Comment options, unless our name is mentioned. It would be beneficial if Box could send E-mail notifications even when our names are not mentioned in annotations.
While Annotations are excellent for adding comments, not receiving e-mail notifications for these comments is a drawback. Please consider implementing this feature.4 votes -
Using folder hierarchy to reduce number of shared folders
It would be great if Box could group by the parent folder if a user is shared more folders from the same parent folder example if i had the following folders
- Projects -> Project A -> Project B -> Project C
If I shared Project A and Project C with a user, it would be better if they saw the following
- Projects -> Project A -> Project C
However if i just share Project A then they would only see this.
This would save having a huge number of folders in the Root of each users account.
Thanks

Integration with Shutterfly: Ability to send photos of build progression to Shutterfly
I work for a swimming pool company. We are taking pictures as the pool is being built. Once the pool is completed, we would like to send 20 to 40 pictures, as a group, to Shutterfly to have them create a picture book for our customers.

Admin Messaging to all Users
Currently, there is no way to send a mass message to all users in an enterprise. It will be great to be able to send a message about an upcoming maintenance or upcoming feature users can look forward to or certain changes that may be coming directly from Box.
I needed to send a message to our users a few weeks ago when we needed to disable SSO in order to perform some maintenance with Recommend and I had no options. I used a Box group we add all our users to, but there is no HTML formatting so the…
4 votesThis suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on making foundational updates to the Users & Groups page to make managing users easier at scale.

bulk edit
I would like you to add the "Notification Email" item to "Bulk Edit".
It would be very helpful to add "Notification Email" to the items in Bulk edit in "Admin Console> Users & Groups> Bulk edit".
If the administrator can register the settings of the notification e-mails of the managed users by bulk editing, the efficiency of the administrator will increase, and the security of the
e-mails will be better than allowing each user to set up the notification e-mails.6 votes -
Ungroup "Tags"
We still need to be able to see all the tags on a file or folder rather having to click on a grouping link once there are more than a few tags.

Allow Excel to open "Export Users" report (csv) without worrying about garbled characters
Admin Console > Users&Groups > Managed Users > Export Users
Please change "Export Users" report to the format of the UTF8 csv file with BOM
The format of the "Export Users" report has been changed to csv.
Therefore, when you import it into Excel as it is, the characters will be garbled.The workaround now:
We change it to csv file with UTF8 BOM in a text editor now before importing it into Excel.However, this workaround would required few extra steps before importing it into Excel.

Is there a way to make comments on MBox folders private/directed toward specific individuals in an MBox group without seen by others?
I am part of a team that uses MBox to securely upload and view videos of infants who are identified at risk of adverse neurodevelopmental conditions to conduct a standardized assessment on each infant. Typically, when team members upload videos of their patients, we have to send multiple emails in order to a) notify the team that a new video has been uploaded and b) respond to the individual who uploaded the video to offer feedback/scoring. Is there a way to make the MBox comments privatized in order to reduce a bias effect on scoring the videos (and minimize the…

Add length of field to API documentation
It would be nice to explicitly mention the length of some of the fields. In our enterprise account all the users had 10-digit UIDs, so I thought that was the standard length, but we had some users with preexisting lite accounts rolled in and a few of them had 8-digit or 9-digit UIDs. I see now that the example UID provided had 9 digits, so my bad there, but I initially just looked at the 'id' attribute under 'user object' to try and find the length and it would be nice I think to have something like 'id / string…
1 voteThanks for the suggestion. We generally don’t provide lengths for fields unless there is a concious decision to define a specific length or range as a contract. Given that the type of field for user id is a string, the fact that user id values ranged from 8-10 digits is an implementation detail, not a guarantee.

The ability to control deletion and restoration from the Recycle Bin.
I would like to see the ability to control the deletion and restoration of items from the Recycle Bin by user/group in the Enterprise Settings for Content and Sharing.
Currently, when a free user is added to a tenant, the user added can delete and restore items that they own.
If this feature is added, we would be able to control the deletion and restoration of items by the user in question on a per-user basis.Enterprise設定のコンテンツと共有に、ユーザー/グループ指定でごみ箱からの削除、復元が制御できる機能を追加してほしいです。
現在、フリーユーザーをテナントに追加した時に該当ユーザーは自身が所有しているアイテムを削除、復元できてしまいます。
この機能が追加された場合、該当ユーザーによるアイテムの削除、復元をユーザー単位でコントロール出来ます。3 votes -
How can I specify a file type to ignore or block
I found a thread on the forum (URL copied below) which was asking exactly what I am looking for. However, it is 4 years old and this page also has many ideas suggested but they haven't been addressed. Thus, I am not sure if my idea will be addressed but I will mention it anyway.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360052391193-How-To-ignore-FilesThere are certain files I want Box sync to ignore or block. I would suggested allowing the user to create a configuration file in the root folder for the same in which we can specify files to ignore or block. This way, Box sync…

Add Bulk Files to a Hub
Currently, adding files to a Hub requires each file to be selected individually. Being able to drag a group of files from Box Drive would be really helpful, or some sort of a "Select All" button so that all files within a Box folder could be selected simultaneously.

Full path to the file in notification e-mails
I'd like to ask for adding full path to the file (especialy first level) in notification e-mails to use Outlook rules. Starting this year everybody is a member of many BOX groups - less or more important. It would be very usefull to split the notifications into folders.

Add specific users as approvers
To be able to manage Box Signs created within a tenant, I want to ensure that a specific user is always added as an approver to the Signs created by users in the target group.
For example, in the Enterprise settings, if you specify a specific user for each group, when a user in the group creates a BoxSign, I would like to have the specified user automatically added to the approver field.in Japanese
テナント内で作成されたBoxSignを管理できるように、対象グループのユーザーが作成したSignに必ず特定のユーザーが承認者として追加されるようにしたい。
例えばEnterprise設定でグループごとに特定のユーザーを指定すると、グループ内のユーザーがBoxSignを作成したとき自動的に承認者の欄に指定したユーザーが追加されているというような形にしたい。1 vote
