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。104 votes -
Additional permission options for files
Hello:
The documentation for Collaborator Permission Levels at https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044196413-Understanding-Collaborator-Permission-Levels is very substantially incorrect. At the start of that article it says (capitalization mine):
"When inviting a person as a collaborator within a folder OR FILE, or sending a shared link, you have the ability to set the level of access that person has to your content. Refer to the following chart to review the different permissions that accompany each permission level:"
This is completely incorrect--the permissions in that article only refer to permissions for folders, not files. Files only get "Viewer" or "Editor" permissions.
Ideally it would be nice…

Box Sign - Checkbox should allow multiple options & multi-select
The checkbox option should operate similarly to the radio button option, allowing the form editor to create multiple checkbox options at once. The only difference would be that the checkbox option would allow multi-select, while the radio button option offers only single-select.

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.
6 votesThe ability to save .eml files to Box has been delivered with the new Box for Outlook integration:

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.

Make new files/folder immediately searchable. Remove latency.
Make new files/folder immediately searchable. There is massive latency for new files/folders being searchable, which creates a very confusing and unpleasant end user experience.
When a new file/folder is created, it is not immediately searchable. Please fix this.

[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…

"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.

Need error log print or output option
My Box context menu says "Error updating 28 items." I look at the errors, figure out the problem, and want to send the file list to the person who is causing the problem. Oh wait, there's no way to do that. I can't capture the text displayed, I can't forward it, I can't do anything.
Please add a "print log" function or permit the user to somehow get info out of the display window. I need to send the details to another person.
Thank you.

Better alignment options for multiple Box Sign fields
We could use better alignment tools for aligning multiple fields in Box Sign. We would like to be able multiple fields and have an option to align them all together to the left, right or center.
For example, if we have a document requiring 5 signatures, we would like to be able to select all 5 of those signatures fields and have them all aligned to the left so they are exactly one underneath each other.
Currently, we can drag each field and use the dotted line alignment guides to get close to aligning correctly with the field above it,…

External files are displayed in Content Manager
The External Collaboration Report outputs folders and files that are invited from outside as "external folder" and "external file".
The Content Manager only displays external folders, which is not consistent.
Therefore, we would like the external folders to be displayed in the Content Manager as well.5 votes -
Download and Print restriction policy and Office co-authoring
I have Office co-editing enabled on my device.
An error appears when I try to edit an Office file from a web browser that has the file labeled with "Download and Print Restrictions Access Policy for Box Desktop" enabled.
It's meant to be a label to disable BoxDrive, but I'm having trouble if I can't edit it from a web browser.
Please enable Office co-authoring from a web browser, even if the file is labeled with these restriction.

Ability to Hide Files from Users in Box Hubs
It would be useful to have the option to hide certain files from users in Box Hubs. This would allow us to add files in formats like .csv or JSON for Box AI to process without cluttering the user interface. Often, data is organized in ways that are visually helpful for users but difficult for Box AI to interpret effectively. By hiding files, we could optimize the AI's ability to provide accurate answers while keeping the UI clean.
For example, we use a complex PDF matrix to help staff identify key contacts for various tasks like reporting, data analysis,…
