Restrict Collaboration for Individual External User
Customer would like to have the ability to block individual external users from collaborating on their enterprise content. The external domain allow list is too broad if only one or two external users need to be blocked from collaborating on content.

Have sync centralised in cloud and automatically sync between website and computers
Keep the concept in Box Sync where you choose what folders you want to sync on Box.com or via Box Drive on computer. Then Box.com and all computers using Box Drive should sync those folders. I don't understand why we currently use "Make Available Offline" feature to individualise syncing for each computer instead for all computers of same account.
Also, documentation says you lose these offline files once you log out of Box Drive. That's a pain if you have to redo choosing which folders to make available offline.
Overall, sync like in Box Sync is a more desirable feature which can be implemented in Box Drive.

Add header and title to Box Note table feature
The customer would like to be able to fix certain parts of Box Notes to be visible at all times.
e.g header(row, column etc) of tables ,the title of sectionAs you fill in Box Notes, the page scrolls down naturally and then parts of Box Notes above become invisible whether they are a "header" or a "title" of table.
The customer wants these to be visible at all times even if you scroll down.An example would be like the "subject" part at the top of an email in Outlook, which is something that is always visible regardless of where you are in the email body itself.
Since the customer is using Box Notes grid function in Box Notes as more like an administraton table rather than just for memos, they think adding this feature would make their use of Box Notes easier and convenient to use.

Insights map uses wrong geoip database
We have noticed that the map displayed on the insights page does not use the same information the report attached to the map does. On the map we see connections to countries that are not in the report.
This massively reduces the value of the map and has raised multiple security alerts, as we see connections from countries on our "forbidden list" that we cannot explain with the report.
Lack of correct information is removing trust in the overall solution in our security department. This should be fixed soon.

Collaborator Clean Up
Collaborator Clean Up - In Account Settings / Collaborators, we want to add the ability to click on any collaborator and see what files and folders they have access to. When looking at the list, have a button available to remove them from specific folders as needed. This will be especially helpful when performing a CBN, Audit or Digital Clean up.
19 votesThe usage of the page is very low. We are gathering feedback about what is the best step forward for the Collaborators page under setting.

Organize Classifications by Sensitivity, Not Alphabetically
Can the list of classifications available to users be organized differently, other than alphabetical order? We're having difficulty with the order not matching the sensitivity levels

I would like the ability to lock down the sharing permissions of certain folders.
The other day, a user “mistakenly” deleted the “All” group from the sharing permissions of our main folder share called “Clients”.

Delimiters are not escaped in the collaboration report
In order to analyze the collaboration report, I am trying to load the CSV file output by Box's reporting function into a tool other than Excel.
However, the CSV cannot be loaded correctly into the tool because the characters used as delimiters in CSV, such as comma and double quotation marks, are not escaped.
Normally, these special characters should be escaped when outputting a CSV file, so please improve this feature.2 votes -
Ability to edit the way Box Looks
Is box changing the way it looks constantly ? I don't like the changes and would prefer the choice to pick the way the program displays on my screen and would also like to rename my Favorite Tabs to what I want them to say not what the file name is.

WoW Storage Usage Metric
I'd need week over week total space used report that can be exported for the past several years. (ideally 7 years, same as other reports)
Part of this data is currently available in Insights (Admin Console), but it only displays for the past 30 days and doesn't have ability to export in CSV or Excel.
Background:
To calculate our ROI on Box and to report to our executive, we'd need a way to find out the historical data and its increase rate.3 votes -
MS Time Private Channel Integration
We love the MS Teams integration but need the ability on private teams with private channels to assign different default Box folders to each channel. Currently this is allowed only with public channels on a private team. We utilize private teams in MS Teams for our training cohorts and need the ability to have private channels for homework assignments and follow up with students. Thanks!

display request for Try this API
In the API reference Try this API displays Response Headers and Response Body. It would be nice if it also displayed the request URL and maybe request headers and body depending on HTTP type.

Change order of the buttons in web interface
Putting the "Trash" and "Download" buttons right next to each other in the web interface is a recipe for disaster. About 5 times a day I accidentally click trash instead of download.

Thumbnail previews of documents should show file type: docx vs pdf
The new BOX.Com format no longer shows Word Docs with a Symbol vs PDF with
a different symbol.i.e. they have removed the prior, very visual, cues as to document type.
We can still see EXCEL symbol, but hopefully that will not be lostThis is a problem for us since we have many documents with long names, and
can't always see the final extension
Not to mention visual cues are exceedingly useful and helpful.8 votes
