  1. Ability to insert picture from Box on Office apps.

    Office apps (Excel, Word, PPT) have a feature where we can import image from Online resources such as OneDrive, Bing search, Facebook and Flickr. We want Box to be the available option in this.

  3. Shared link works on desktop but fails on mobile

    I received a Box link from a contact in the form https://app.box.com/s/[string]/folder/[string]. Clicking this link in iOS Mail app opened a Box web page in Safari with the message "This shared file or folder has been removed." I tried to resolve this by installing the Box app. Clicking the link now opened the Box app with a message telling me I must log in to access my content. This would not be possible for recipients without a Box account.

    In macOS Mail, clicking the link opened a Box web page in Safari correctly listing the shared files. Without logging…

  4. BOX should give us more options to work with subfolder access

    When you give the Viewer access to a group of people in the root of a structure, you could work with subfolders by 1) removing some people from access specific subfolders or 2) changing the type of access specific person would have. For example,
    1) I have specific content that should be restricted but need to manage it in a single place. If I try to remove a person from a subfolder, it will remove this person from the whole structure.
    2) I can create a root folder called "Teams" and give everyone the viewer access to it (since the…

  5. "Shared links" - search functionality

    Currently "Shared links" do not have the search functionality or the search bar enabled. This is presenting an issue some someone that needs to share a ton of files and for one reason or another cannot add the users as collaborators.

  6. separate owned file/folders view from all files/folders view

    We need the ability when viewing a users list of files and folders to show only content owned by user. Right now files that have any collaboration at all do not show differently if owned by user or not. Ideally, we could toggle a view filter to show only files/folders owned by user if needed.

  11. Ability to run relay workflows as a group

    Relay workflows and approval tasks are started and sent as the user that created the relay. Ideally you want to get the box approval task that is sent to the users to approve to look like it is coming from the team that is requesting the approval.

    Example: Invoice approval
    When an invoice approval relay starts, pick dept. from metadata and start an approval process to the appropriate user as defined in the workflow. The user gets an email that says 'boxadmin' (in out case the user that created the relay) has sent you an approval task.

    It would be…

  16. Powerpoint link not giving full URL in Box Powerpoint viewer.

    When viewing a Powerpoint (pptx) presentation in Box, the URL on hover and on click is shortened all the way down to the domain.
    Example:
    Verified in the downloaded version of the pptx, the URL text and hot link are both set as:
    https://abstracted.mybluemix.net/#/documents/b26c440b95ba6a02d6950bc8d3abc740

    However, the hover tooltip and URL launched is only:
    https://abstracted.mybluemix.net/

  19. Separate color or icon for user-owned folder

    When browsing user content in the admin console, I often need to determine which folders are owned by the user whose content I'm viewing. If there were a separate color or icon for folders that the current user owns, I wouldn't have to open every collaborated folder to check ownership.

    This could also help users delineate which folders they own and which are owned by others. It would be a big help with communicating best practices around folder ownership.

  20. Ability to track access log of folder shared link

    We have access stats at file level, but there is no way to check if a folder is accessed via shared links. It would be nice to get counts on how many times a folder was accessed via shared links
