  1. Sometimes when working with AutoCAD files, the external references in the CAD files lose their path.

    It would be great if the external references (external files) are kept in the CAD file and not lose their paths. (I do wonder if this is happening because the path is too long).

  2. Reminder to migrate files PSU Box when a faculty leaves PSU

    I created and uploaded some vmware images to PSU Boxes. And I shared several links to files at PSU Box. When I leaved PSU, I forget to migrate my files to our file hosting platform. Therefore, all my files are deleted and lost.

  3. Allow DES files to be synced via Box Drive

    We would like for DES files to be synced to Box cloud via Box Drive. They are currently being ignored in the same way PST files are ignored. Ideally, having the ability to enable/allow exclusions would be ideal.

  4. Preview embedded links and files in .pptx in the WebApp

    We would like files embedded into .pptx documents to be previewable in the WebApp so we do not have to download them first to see the embedded files.

  5. Add Storage Volume (e.g., in MB) to All Files page columns

    Currently, the All Files page has a column for 'Size,' but this only shows the number of files. We need to know the storage volume of the folder/file. Please add storage volume (e.g., in MB) to the All Files page.

  7. <Ability to set date and time variables for files/folders in Box Relay.>

    When multiple folders/files with the same name are created (newly created/copied) on the same day using Box Relay's folder/file actions, the current specification makes it impossible to determine which item is the latest.
    Please insert a date/time variable such as "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss" in the item name so that we can know when the folder/file was created.

    <BoxRelayのファイル/フォルダに日付と時刻の変数を設定する機能>
    Box Relayのフォルダアクション/ファイルアクションで同じ日に複数の同一名称のフォルダ/ファイルが生成(新規作成/コピー)された場合、現状の仕様ではどのアイテムが最新のものか判断がつかない。
    いつ生成されたフォルダ/ファイルかわかるように、アイテム名称に「yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss」のような日時変数を挿入してほしい。

  8. collaborate at "all files/root" level

    It would be nice if you could add a collaborator at the "all files" or root level, so that they would have access to any future folders created. For example we have folders created for each year and now we have to make sure we remember to add collaborators to the next years folder when it gets created. Versus if we had collaboration at the root level they would automatically be included when the next years folder is created.

  10. Drag and drop files on Box Drive

    I can't drag and drop to move a file as easily as on google drive
    The all files folder should automatically expand when I plan to drop a file to move it to.

  11. Exclude file movement in Box Drive from Box shield's anomalous download detection

    When I move a folder with multiple files stored in Box Drive, Box Shield's anomalous download detection works.
    Since the purpose of the detection of anomalous download is to detect downloads that are taken out of the system, this specification is not the behavior we are looking for.
    Therefore, I would like to see Box Shield exclude moving files in Box Drive from the detection of anomalous download.

    In Japanese:
    Box Driveで複数ファイルが格納されているフォルダを移動すると、Box Shieldの「異常なダウンロード」検知が動作してしまいます。
    異常なダウンロード検知の目的は、ダウンロードによる持ち出しの検知なので、この仕様は求めている動作ではないです。
    そのため、Box Driveの移動はBox Shieldの異常なダウンロード検知の対象外にしてほしいです。

  13. Filter during multiple edits

    When multiple users are editing the same document online, if one person applies a filter condition, it is applied for all users. Can we have options to apply filter only for self or for all users as per individual's choice? I have seen this feature while editing excels in Sharepoint. It would really help when we have lengthy spreadsheets to edit.

  14. Ability to preview previously cached files by using spacebar in mac finder

    When navigating through files in Mac Finder, if you select a file and hit spacebar it will pop open a preview.

    Since Box Sync supports this one would think if a file has been previously opened and cached locally by Box Drive, it would also be supported but it doesn't

  16. Ability to re-arrange All Files page on Drive, including external folders, for organizational purposes.

    We would like to be able to move non-owned and external folders around for organizational purposes on their private Drive, without impacting the actual external/owner of the folder. For example: Company X shared Folder A with me at Company Y. I would like to move Folder A to my Company X folder in Drive so it's not clogging my All Files page (without this impacting Company X's folder).

    Thanks for the suggestion! We’re looking at ways to improve content sprawl in the future on Box Drive. We’ll consider your suggestion, along with other options, to help solve this problem.

  17. Embed doesn't display locked files

    Lock is critical to using Sync and editing files. Box Embed is critical to our workflows. The lock icon is the only way to view a file is locked in Box Embed, as well as the only way to see who locked it and when. Box Embed, however, does not display lock.

    The Lock icon in the Preview header shows in the embed widget using the new UI.

  19. Count previewing large Video files as "preview" in User Statistics Report

    Count previewing large Video files as "preview" in User Statistics Report.

    Sometimes previewing large Video files is not counted as "preview" in User Statistics Report.

    It should be counted.
