    As Owner I should be able to make a specific folder readonly so that collaborators don't modify any content or add new content.

  2. My Box Drive application has taken All Or Nothing, to literal.

    I work for a national firm that produces hundreds of work folders daily, in retrospect I am assigned to 4 weekly. The Sync option through the Box Sync application allowed me and other users access to specific files on their laptops without being overwhelmed by the company's very long list. Assigned folders were Synced and then managed on laptops using the File Explorer. Which made working with these files very efficient.

    Currently, there is no option for me to selectively access my assignment folders on my laptop without searching for them specifically in the growing listing of company-wide folders.

    1. items per folder
    2. total items per user
    3. collaborators per folder.

  4. Receive Email Notification if Report Times Out

    Currently, reports initiated in Box can timeout or 10 million records or exceeds 12 hours to generate. The user does not receive any notification should this happen to know that report will not be received.

    Enhancement request would be for the user to receive email notification that report timed out.

  5. folder report

    When running the folder/file report, provide a way to include ONLY the subfolders and not the files. Sometimes we need only the subfolder details and not the actual files in each subfolder.

  6. Need to be able to run user activity report for Box users that were deleted

    Need to be able to run reports for user activity for user account that have been deleted. Once a user is deleted I can't run any historical user activity in case there is any request for that information.

  7. Ability to remove collections from mobile

    Ability to remove collection on mobile

    Mobile Application doesn't allow users to remove collection. Users need to remove it from Box WebApp at this moment. It would be better to remove it within the mobile application.

  8. Downloading from websites.

    There should be a direct way to download a webpage into Box. I can directly download into Google Drive but not Box. Box requires a 2-step process. First I need to download to my device and then I can upload to Box.

  9. Open internet shortcut files in the device browser

    In Dropbox, when tapping on an internet shortcut file it would open up the link in the device's default browser. In Box it can't open it at all. Would be nice if it did!

  10. UAR

    When running a UAR from Admin Console, I think it would be very helpful if either on row 1, or perhaps in its own sheet of the resulting excel report, to include a summary or quick SQL-type list of what parameters were used to run that report. This would cut down back and forth in some cases on troubleshooting whether the person who generated the report did or did not include the correct date range, actions, User/Content IDs, etc, to resolve these issues quicker.

  11. select default name for auto uploads from mobile

    When images are uploaded from my phone to Box, they are named IMG_12345.JPG. I'd like to have the date in the file name (this is the setting for Sync.com uploads, and if I recall correctly last I used it, Dropbox.com).
    Ideally, users would be able to choose their desired naming structure but datetime would still be a big improvement over a sequential number.
    Thanks,
    Jase

  12. VTiger does not have an integration with Box.com

    We are planning to use VTiger, a CRM software, but realise that it does not integrate with Box.com. Are there any plans to change that? Other wise we need to switch to Google Drive or Drop box. Thanks

  14. Get rid of the "Hello" lets get started box

    Turn of the " Hello" lets get started box or have away to turn it OFF. It is hard enough seeing what you need on the limited screen space. Very annoying

  16. open synched folder from web

    When I work in windows folder/file browser on my PC, I can easily right-click a folder and select to "view on box.com". I would like to be able to go the other way.
    * Couldn't there be a function when right-clicking a folder on box.com, that takes me to the synched folder on the PC I work from?
    * Or at least "copy link on the PC I work from", so I could paste it into the windows folder/file browser on my PC?

  17. Add an Undo option within Reports.

    When an admin searches for files or folders that were put in Trash or Moved by a specific user, there is a need for an UNDO option. When erroneous Trash or Move occurs in a large number of files, there is no ability to remedy the error. Please add the ability to undo a users mistake or nefarious action.

  18. Create a hyperlink to a point within the same note

    Box Notes are wonderful, but after a certain length, they can become unwieldy to navigate. Other services, including Dropbox, offer the ability to hyperlink to a headlines section (text marked as H1, H2) to create a functional contents segment.

    Please could we have the ability to hyperlink within documents, at leas to text tagged as a header

  20. Folder Hyperlink to link to Page X of Y within folder that holds the actual document.

    When using Search and click folder hyperlink, the result should link to Page X of Y within folder that holds the actual document. This will allow user to see associated TAGS.
