Folder path under Trash
Under Trash, please add "folder path". If there was a bulk delete of many files in a folder, we want to confirm the file belongs in the folder path, before we restore the files.

Show My Recent files in Box for Gmail by default
Box for Gmail: Show recently accessed files and folders by default within Box for Gmail.
Oftentimes I'm attaching a file I was recently working on, so it would be nice to not click through my entire folder structure to locate the file I want to send as a link. Gmail currently does this with Google Drive.
2 votesWhen attaching files from Box to Gmail, users that have recently attached files can now see those files under Recents, and can additionally see Favorites.

Syncing files and having them download to devices automatically
Create a setting in Box Drive so that files, once updated, automatically sync and download to all devices for use offline. Now, we have to designate each folder for "use offline." Why not have a setting that allows us to make that the default (so it functions like Box Sync)? As it now stands, I'd have to know in advance which files I might use on a flight, if I'm traveling with a different computer. That's a pain.

Provide total number of files in Account info
Currently if you go to Admin Console > ent settings > account info, we can see total storage space used in the Box instance. Can you add total # of files in the enterprise?

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 -
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.

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…

UI enhancements for easy viewing of pdf files on iPhone & iPod
When displaying pdf files using the Box App on iPhone & iPod, after scrolling to view the top of the file, the app seems to take control over the display and auto-scrolls the file upward causing the top of the file to be outside of the screen. Is there any way to correct this? Thank you! 8-)

Unable to download files from "Collections."
I would LOVE to be able to download the files from a "Collection." It's kinda weird that as powerful as Box is, this seemingly simple task is not available. I spent two days (off and on) assembling a "Collection" only to find that I need to go back and download each file (MS Word doc) individually. Food for thought. Thanks much.

Disable email upload notification for users who are uploading the files
We are using Box Email feature to collect all attachments from the important thread. Box sends notification after succesful upload for EACH file. Sometimes company logo in the signature is also treated as an attachment. The end result is too many emails from box.
It will be better to turn off this feature at the folder level. If folder to which the attachments get delivered could select to turn off the notifications, it would be greatly appriciated.15 votes -
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 -
Default to files being in alphabetical order
it's such a bummer that I have to click the file button on top to sort an alphabetical order… And it's not even me… there are people on my team we don't know how to do this yet… This should be a very standard feature

Send notifications to multiple emails
We have a separate instance for managed external users. Because they have to create a dummy email for these externals, the email is not one that is able to receive notifications. They would like the ability to tack on working emails (without the unique email constraint) so that these users can still receive email notifications.
9 votesThis feature, called the Alternate Notification Email, was delivered as an opt-in experience in the Admin Console on Sept 25, 2019. We also support developer APIs for admins who need to configure emails programatically.

Limit large files to desktop viewing only
Really large files should not be shown on mobile device and so we'd like to inhibit people from being able to see it.
Large files 100+ Gig, ‘rushes’ from ad shoots moved in disk, genomics files at academia,… must solve user experience issue with mobile/web – we want to be able to classify that content as desktop only.

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.
