Add a 'description' for folder and files at the top of the page, just below the folder/file name.
A description of the folder at the top of the page will save time for our users, stakeholders and team members. It can be used as a way to describe what a user can expect to find in a given folder; and if this option extends in all sub-folders and files, it can help save a lot of time, bandwidth, and storage.
The following format example will work well:
Account name > Project name > Research files
In this folder, you will find data about the project research and all the research files that are available. For any information…

Add ability to remove shared content from the All Files page
One of the complaints we've heard from our users is the inability to move shared content to a location other than their All Files page. For users with a lot of shared content this creates folder sprawl. With the new Collections feature we had hoped this would be possible as Collections can be accessed via the left pane.

Improving "Folders and Files" Report Output
Currently, when outputting the "Folders and Files" report, it is not possible to output folder-only information. Therefore, only folders need to be extracted from the output report. If file information is included, the number of records output will increase significantly. We would like to be able to output folder-only information. In doing so, it would be great if we could also specify the hierarchy of the folders. For example, up to the top 5 levels.
現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートの出力時に、フォルダのみの情報を出力することができません。そのため、出力したレポートからフォルダのみを抽出する必要があります。ファイル情報が含まれると出力されるレコード数も大幅に増えてしまいます。フォルダのみの情報を出力できるようにしてほしいです。
その際に、フォルダの階層も指定できると嬉しいです。例えば、上位5階層までなど。3 votes -

Limit office files (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) to be open through their corresponding web version
Limit office files (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) to be open through their corresponding web version. That is, only allowing these office files to be opened only through Word Online, Excel Online, etc. As of right now, these files are able to be opened through Google Docs and Google sheets, which alters the formatting of their original files.

Users who have permission to output reports should be able to select "target folders and files" within the scope of their access rights
Under the current specification, only administrators or authorized co-administrators can select the "target folders and files" when outputting the User Activity Report.
For the sake of business efficiency, I would like to see users who have permission to output reports be able to select "target folders and files" within the scope of their access rights.現在の仕様では、ユーザーアクティビティレポートを出力の際管理者または、権限の付与された共同管理者のみ「対象のフォルダとファイル」が選択可能です。
これをレポート出力権限を持っているユーザーは、業務効率上、自分のアクセス権がある範囲の中で「対象のフォルダとファイル」を選択できるようにしてほしい。11 votes -
Add Timestamp to Files and Folder Tree Report
The Files and Folder Tree report in the Admin Console only displays the date for content created/modified, etc. It'd be helpful to include the full timestamp in the date field.

Dynamically name signed documents based on metadata: signer's full name, company, email and others
When there are documents in the same folder or templates that are repeatably signed with the same name (Ready Sign Link, Batch Send), Box Sign adds a number and () to the filename to note the different/unique files.
There needs to be a better way to name the files - perhaps using metadata or using the unique id of the sign request. And then all files - signed docs and signed log would be renamed with the same name. Otherwise it's very hard to tell files apart when they all have the same name with just a number and…

Mirror files in one location to another
Add the ability to mirror files from one location to another. If we have /Investment/Deals/financialReport.xlsx we want to have the option to mirror it to another location such as /Investment/Investor Profiles/Axel Pina/financialreport.xlsx.
The feature should include the file's versions. If the file is edited in location one, it should be reflected on location 2.

Box Drive should ignore files would be in a hidden folder/directory
Box Drive should ignore files would be in a hidden folder/directory. For example, this file has a parent folder that is named ".Rproj.user" which starts with a dot.

As a Box user I want to be able to specify the starting page for a file using the Box Embed Widget so that I do not have to create multiple
Background:
Whenever I have a multi-page document that I wish to embed on a Wiki or Web page I have to create multiple, physical copies of that file (and keep them in sync) when I want a specific page to be shown on the widget.
Business Impact:
Reduced issues and time wasted with having to maintain multiple physical documents that have to be created in order to show specific pages on wiki's and web sites.

Request that multiple file requests not be created when creating a File Request using the API
When creating file requests using the API, multiple file requests can be created independently for one folder.
In order to avoid this phenomenon, I would like an API to be prepared to retrieve the created file request ID from the folder.
Or please provide some other workaround.1 vote -
Requesting notification of email address of who downloads song files.
We send out email blasts to our subscribers and include links to music we license. We receive a notification that someone downloads the song files. But it does not say who? Is there a way to retrieve the email address of the person that downloads files from our box account?

display order of files/folders in the browser version of Box
Since the display order of files/folders in the browser version of Box is dynamically changed in the order of new and updated, it is often difficult to find files/folders, so I would like to change the display order like Windows Explorer.

Allow use of signature and initial image files for GXP part 11 compliant signatures
Could you please allow the use of signature image files when signing under GXP part 11 compliant conditions? As currently configured, only "fake" machine-generated signatures are given as options. Since the Part 11 compliance is conveyed by the coding, the selection of an actual signature image - as allowed for non-Part 11 compliant signatures (and initials) - should be an option. Thanks.

Save Signed Box Sign documents back to Salesforce.com Files object
Box Sign has an integration for Salesforce.com but it really does not save much real effort because the integration is not complete. Box Sign really needs to integrate with Salesforce's Files object as Salesforce.com is the system of record and therefore needs the file Signed version of documents.
In an ideal world, Box would be able to both pull documents from the Files object and save the Signed Document back to the Files object in Salesforce.com (but while you are at it, you might as well make it configurable to Documents, Files, or other file repositories in Salesforce). Otherwise…

Allow Box to work with iOS Files app without having to disable sitewide security passcodes
When using the Files App on iOS, you cannot connect to Box (as a location) if your enterprise settings require a passcode to use the Box app. Surely there must be some way to achieve this functionality without having to turn off passcode security for the whole firm.
