Ability to copy/duplicate files
My local City sends out links to files that expire in 30 days or so.
Currently I download those files, then upload them back to box,net.The "copy" feature for such links seems to copy the links, not create a safe local copy of the data.

Support multi-file for rejected task trigger in Relay
Suppose you like to assign an approval task to a person with multiple files and when the task is rejected, you like to move the package of those “rejected” files to a different folder("Rejected folder) instead of having them sat in the triggered folder.
For a single file, you can create the following workflow containing 2 flows and it works perfect as expected, however it doesn't work for multi-files...
Flow 1: Trigger Manual start-> Outcome: Assign task -> When rejected, the flow is end
Flow 2: Trigger Task -> Outcome: when the task is rejected, move the file to “Rejected folder”
--> Only single file will be moved to Reject folder.It would be efficient if rejected files are moved to a different folder as a clean-up process,

Collaborator Restriction to a folder.
We need the ability to decide which subfolders a specific collaborator can access. Specifically, we need to restrict access of one collaborator to a subfolder (and all of its contents/subfolders). I was told this is not something Box cannot do. This is an issue. We need to set up an ethical wall in the firm. This associate needs to retain access to everything he currently can access, but legally we need to restrict his access to this matter (folder) and all it's contents.

Tags and comments in Box Drive
Is there a way to see the tags in Box Drive? Right now I have to view box on the browser to see the tags for each file. Is there some option to view the tags in Box Drive without having to go to box.com each time?

I'm a sole proprietor and need your Business Plus features
Hello, I'm coming back to our exchange on Twitter from earlier today.
I was a Box user between 2013-18 when my business started to grow and my Box plan became too limited. Also the branding of my file exchange service became a must.
Back then I wanted to switch to Business Plus but the minimum of 3 payed users made this way too expensive and also simply unreasonable for me as a one-man show. I exchanged various emails with your support and spoke with your office in Munich about whether it was possible to offer a One User Business Plus account before giving up at some point since the answer was no. I switched to WeTransfer where I soon became a beta user for their current Plus plan.
I like WeTransfer and had a good relation with their beta team but unfortunately their platform is not always as reliable as it had to be and the features offered still leave a lot to be desired.
Let me keep this brief for now, do you see a chance to offer a one user Business Plus account, ideally with a 'fair' monthly fee that suits a fairly small business like mine?
I'm a audio mastering engineer and work with clients around the world around 15 per month, while 4 or 5 of them are regulars. Reliability, ease of use for my clients and speed are crucial for me, so is storage space and branding. I love the idea to offer my clients an app for communication and fast project updates, and in general I'd love to move all project related communication into their dedicated folders.
I have plenty of colleagues who are 'so/so' happy with WT, Dropbox, G-Drive etc, none of them would hesitate to switch to a much better platform as long as the cost will stay in relation to our income.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Box for Teams Integration for Private Channels
Today, Box for Teams Integration does not support Private Channels.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044673394-Box-for-Teams-FAQMany customers are using Private Channels and need full integration between Box and Microsoft Teams. We do want Microsoft and Box to work together to improve it.
84 votesThis limitation is due to Microsoft’s platform not allowing integrations to surface as messaging extensions (Box icon to upload and share documents). Until Microsoft supports this for third parties, Box is unable to deliver this functionality. We are working with Microsoft but there is no timeline for delivery at this point.

Enable admin settings to customize new user onboarding setup flow
The new user onboarding displayed at https://{DOMAIN}.app.box.com/onboarding/setupflow should be customizable.
Currently new users are guided through a one time onboarding set of screens in the web app. These are Box branded and while they personally greet the user are not otherwise configurable.
This feature should be opt-in, easily disabled by CLI or API (e.g. show-onboarding: False), or allow for customization.
We can currently enable the promotion of Box Mobile, Notes, etc. in the Admin Console. This would be similar to implement and appropriate on the User Settings console tab.
Right now the final screen displays a prompt for the user to download Box Drive - an installer that requires admin credentials. If the user doesn't have these, or the organization is discouraging Drive use (esp. for M1 Mac users not currently supported), it can result in a support ticket if the new user assumes this is a necessary step in the process.

Please implement the function to restore the contents in the trash to a folder other than the original folder location.
Please implement the function to restore the contents in the trash to a folder other than the original folder location.
Currently, when restoring files/folders from the trash, it will be restored to the same folder as before the deletion.
If we accidentally delete a large number of items that we plan to move, it will take a considerable amount of time to restore and then move, and the items in the move process (delete / move / copy) will be temporarily locked, which will hinder our business.
We are confident that if we can select the restore location, which will reduce our business impact.Please implement the function to restore the contents in the trash to a folder other than the original folder location.

Create custom alerts if user/subset of users performs "X" amount of Downloads/Copies in "Y" amount of time
We would like the ability to Create custom alerts to send email notifications if any user, or a specific subset of users, performs "X" amount of Downloads/Copies/Shares/Uploads/etc in "Y" amount of time (where we can select what "X" and "Y" are). We know that there is a way to setup a "Content Security - Download" policy that will send email notifications if download activity is "Low, Medium or High" based on your preset definitions of what that means (for instance "High = 12 per hour" in the preset rule), but that doesn't necessarily correspond to what we would want to flag as "High" usage. For instance, we would like to setup an alert that triggers if someone runs maybe 40 or 50 downloads in an hour, but 12 an hour would be fairly common.
