  2. Web Interface Search Bug

    The web interface won't let you select filters or check boxes from the pop-up menu when searching using Safari. Seems like a bug, as it used to work.

  3. Sharing Content to Alternate Email Address

    Currently when sharing content via email address, if the address used is a secondary email on their account, the UX is to show that the email address is for an external user, rather than a user in your box tenant. Additionally, the full name of the user does not resolve, leading users to believe that the address they selected is inaccurate.

    All alternate email addresses should be treated as searchable attributes that bring up the user profile rather than just the primary.

  5. List of All Folders that I own.

    New Feature to allow individual users to pull a Report of all the folders that they personally "Own".

    The reasoning behind this is due to the fact that Lotus Notes Teamrooms are being sunset, and BOX is becoming the repository for many Accounts Contractual Data. From a business controls perspective, "Owners"must now must ensure that they "Secure" confidential contractual data via folder Settings. Since BOX has been around for some time, we could have access to hundreds of folders, and it is very time consuming to check which are the ones we "Own".

  7. Ability to Remove Collaborator Expiration via web app or API

    Collaborator expiration was turned on for a short period of time now we only have the option of extending the date the collaborator will be removed. The user would like this removed completely even though I can set the to expire in the distant future. The only other resolution is to remove and re-add those collaborators. So it would be great to have a feature where the admin/owner/co-owner could not only extend but remove the expiration on the folder.

  8. Skills that are configured to fire on 'All content in your company' in the enterprise should fire when I copy a folder with content

    We have a skill that is configured to fire on 'All content in your company' in the enterprise, but when I copy a folder with content the skills is not triggered. Skills only trigger at the file level, not on files within a folder that are moved.

  9. Ability that restrict to create a file/folder on the root folder and move/copy to the root folder on Box Drive

    .Ability that restrict to create a file/folder on the root folder and move/copy to the root folder on Box Drive if their enterprise set "Restrict content creation"

    Currently, we can perform operation create/move/copy in the root folder on Box Drive even though our enterprise set "Restrict content creation".
    Of course, the files/folders are marked as problem items, but if we move to the folder directly under the root folder, it looks like they have been moved to the folder, so logging off from Box Drive or replacing with new device due to hardware issue may lead to lose some contents.

  10. Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users.

    Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users. We use classifications and access policies for specific domain whitelisting. We currently do not allow external collaboration with personal webmail domains for obvious reasons. But some departments like recruiting would need to share content with personal webmail domains. We would like to create a classification/access policy combo that permits this but is ONLY visible to specified users/groups. Thinking of a option like how you can whitelist relay and other features for certain users. Have that same option with classifications. That way the whole org can't use that classification just…

  11. Allow the ability to save a set of parameters to routinely run the same report

  12. Keep Cost Center Field populated when user invited as a Managed user

    If creating an account and you have to send the user an Invite to come over as a managed user, the Cost Center field (If filled out) will not stay after the user accepts the invite. Forcing you to have to go back and re-add info you may have already included.

    I would request that if the Cost Center field is populated on a user creation, that it remain after an invited user accepts their invite to stop double work.

  13. bulk edit

    I would like you to add the "Notification Email" item to "Bulk Edit".

    It would be very helpful to add "Notification Email" to the items in Bulk edit in "Admin Console> Users & Groups> Bulk edit".

    If the administrator can register the settings of the notification e-mails of the managed users by bulk editing, the efficiency of the administrator will increase, and the security of the
    e-mails will be better than allowing each user to set up the notification e-mails.

  15. Improve the de-provisioning process in Box

    Improve the de-provisioning process in Box so that old content isn't stored when it's not needed, and if it is needed, the right people are taking over ownership of the content. Workflow should look something like this: -User leaves company and is removed from AD group or marked somehow as "removed" -Collaborators on their shared folders are notified that they should take ownership of the folders, if the content is still needed. For example "you have 30 days to take ownership of X folder." -When they click to take ownership, the folder/file is now owned by them and other collaborators…

  17. List View of Marked For Offline Files

    It is imperative that we have a view of which folders we have Make Available Offline. We can't hunt and peck through hundreds of folders with a Green Checkmark on it to Make Available Online Only when we're finished with a big "sync". This is already a hoop we're jumping through because we can't "sync" to an external drive so we have to manually manage internal Hard Drive space. A user should be able to see what they have marked for offline at a glance so they can easily reverse the storage affect on local hard drives.

  18. Add Linux to Web app QA process

    The web app UX is horrible on Linux. It's not just one bug, but dozens of bugs that affect Linux and ChromeOS users.

    Examples:
    - Downloading a Docx will prompt you to open with Word instead
    - Clicking Open will prompt you to install Box Tools
    - Clicking install Box Tools will download an EXE file

    All of these are completely irrelevant and an annoying hurdle for Linux users. Box Tools for linux doesn't exist. Linux Users can't run EXE files. Open With Word doesn't make ANY sense, as Word doesn't exist for Linux.

    Please fix.

  19. Trash file from its preview

    The trash command is missing from within the "..." button of the document view.
    The workaround requires a lot of extra steps: navigate to the parent folder, select the file, trash the file.
    Moreover it is not consistant with what is possible with folders: you can trash a folder from its own view.
