Need to be able to display the whole file name on the All Files page.
Need to be able to display the whole file name on the All Files page. Even very long file names vs. the 3 dots. The current feature that allows you to make the "Name" column a little wider is not nearly enough. Users should have the option to display the entire name if they wish.

Bulk Extract Metadata in WebApp
Currently, it is only possible to use AI metadata extract on single files in a Box App. We would like to be able to extract metadata from multiple selected files instead of only one.

＜Added the ability to download in bulk using the Box for iPhone app＞
We are using the Box app on our iPhone.
Currently, we can't select multiple items (such as image files) and download them.We are convinced that it would be even more convenient if it were possible to select multiple files and download them all at once.
If it is not possible to support all file types, could you please add a bulk download function for image files only?iPhoneでBoxアプリを利用しています。
現在は、アイテム(画像ファイル等)を複数選択し、ダウンロードができません。複数のファイルを選択して一括ダウンロードが可能になると、更に便利になると確信しています。
すべてのファイルタイプに対応することが難しい場合、画像ファイルだけでも、一括ダウンロード機能を追加していただけませんでしょうか。12 votes -
Sort or filter files in a folder by the presence or absence of comments.
Sort or filter files in a folder by the absence or presence of comments. Feature would be helpful to spot files that should have been reviewed and weren't.

playback speed controls for audio or video files
At the moment, the Box Mobile app for iPad doesn’t include playback speed controls for audio or video files, so I suggest to add this function. The web already has this function. It would enhance the audio user playback!

Get the possibility to select multi files to sign with ADOBESign
Today Box give the possible to use ADOBESign only on an unique file.
For contracts, I need to add several files for one signature directly from BOX.1 vote -
Add support for File name sensitivity
Box currently doesn’t support the notion of file sensitive file and directory names like Linux does, so backups to Box, for example with rclone, lose similarly named files that only vary in case.
For example, you can only have File1.txt and file1.txt, but no both in Box.
In comparison, there’s no such limitation in Google Drive and Linux file systems, for example.
Please add support for file name sensitivity.

Ability to edit file on external apps without saving files locally
Ability to edit file on external apps without saving files locally.
For example, if user would like to edit files on "Microsoft Office" app, they need to set “Files can be saved to device: On “ on Admin console > Enterprise settings > Mobile
But some users cannot set "ON" due to their security policy. "Open In" icon is grayed out.1 vote -
Ability to block users from downloading files on computer so as to protect proprietary information.
We want users to be able to ONLY download files on box app on ipad (which has ability to not share). but doing so- currently it provides a download option on box.com also which a user can go to any external computer and log in and download files which is a violation for using proprietary files. So Admin an option to restrict user access to download files only on box app.

Syncing bookmarks and Windows shortcuts between Box Drive and online.
To better organize my personal Box files and share with teams, I've saved my files in the team folder and used a Windows shortcut (in Box Drive) in my personal Box folder to link files/folders elsewhere on Box. Box Drive doesn't sync Window's shortcuts so these links are lost when working online. The workaround online is to use the bookmark function, using file/folder URLs to create shortcuts. It would be great if bookmarks or window's shortcuts synced between online and Box Drive modes. At the moment I'm having to bookmark online and shortcut on Drive to link up files…
132 votesWe will likely consider bookmark support in the future for Box Drive, but it’s not planned in the near-term.

Add the ability to mark a folder for offline use (for viewers) when files have watermarks
In a folder where I'm a viewer, I marked the folder for offline use and a check mark is displayed on the folder, but when I look at the files all have an exclamation point, indicating an error and cannot be viewed offline

Display warning notification (admin controls) for moving large files and folders.
We have large projects folders containing 5+ GB of data. Would like to have a warning notification similar to that of deleting a file, pop up when someone goes to move a file or folder.
Ideally this would have customizable parameters controlled by the admin such as warn users only when file contains over 100 mb or even a feature that requires admin approval over a certain amount.
We recently had one of our very large folders moved accidentally and it caused a huge bandwidth issue as well as displaced the many sub folders that various departments relied on.

Disable downloading of files to those not on an Allow List
I have files I want hiring managers to see but not download. Give me the option (on files or folders) to allow/disallow downloading. Also, when a person wants to download, have it email me for permission of a one-time download or adding an email address to an Allow list if that person logs into Box.

Add folders and files to a Legal Hold via the UI
Currently, Legal Holds can only be applied to custodians (people) via the UI, but other options (files, folders, and specific versions) are available via API - https://community.box.com/t5/For-Admins/Legal-Holds/ta-p/19886
This request is to add UI support for adding files and folders to a Legal Hold via the native Box Admin Console UI.
11 votesPlease see https://community.box.com/t5/Box-Product-Updates/Folder-Level-Legal-Holds/idi-p/69643 for additional detail. We don’t plan to add files at this time, but have added folders.

support the preview of other types of compressed files such as .7z, .TAR, and .XIP
It's very helpful that Box now supports previewing Zip Files as noted at https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044196713-Previewing-Zip-Files, and we would like to know if there are plans to support the preview of other types of compressed files such as .7z, .TAR, and .XIP?

Input file/folder ID instead of folder name in Files and Folders report
Quite often folders with same name appear when the folder name is entered for filtering the folder to create the report, resulting in the report being incorrect although after long time waiting for the report to be ready.
By allowing to filter by file/folder ID instead of folder name, such mistake can be avoided and the the filtering can be made more accurate.10 votesGreat news!
We've rolled this out in a recent release. Thank you for helping make Box better!

Please remove the feature that hiding files/folders in Box Drive.
I work at Box's help desk. Since most users aren't fully proficient with Box, hiding files/folders causes confusion.

Including the original path to a file that was deleted.
It would make it easier to identify what files need to be restored if the original full path of the file was included in the trash folder and that information could be used in a sort/search.

Prevent text files from being truncated in Preview Mode
When working with Box, we gather data which we lock down using the classification tooling within Box. This prevents engineers from downloading sensitive or customer data to their personal workstations or unauthorised areas and is generally very useful.
However a main use case for us is allowing engineers to read through very verbose (long) log files which our product generates. When a customer provides us with these log files, we cannot always read important information, as box will truncate the view of these long files and inform the user that they should download the file to read it in…
