Anyone can upload file via shared link
I want that through the shared link anyone who gets that link can be not only viewer but also uploader. This would be very helpful for us when collecting data,pictures, files - anything.
It would be great to have option 1. viewer only option 2. viewer and uploader - that way we can choose if people can only view or view and upload.3 votes -
Ability to be able to check if uploading was successful or not by managed users
Ability to be able to check if uploading was successful or not by managed users themselves.
Users can know the result of upload with pop-up on WebApp, but they have no way to confirm it if they leave for a while. Because the pop-up disappears in a few seconds.
Therefore, we would like an ability to check if uploading was successful or not by managed users themselves.2 votes -
Add Optional Security Notifications for Admins, Reports for Public Links, and Customize the Insights Dashboard
We'd like to be able to receive notifications when a user creates a shared like that is "public" or available to anyone externally. With recent security concerns, we're not able to easily see how many public links are being created. The reports time out and we have to reach out to Box Support every time we want that data. In addition to better abilities to report and customize reports as many people have mentioned, it would be nice to customize the Insights dashboard to see the pertinent data to our organization.

"Copy Local Link" in the right click menu.
There is a "Copy Shared Link" in the right click menu that creates a link to the file or folder on the Box web. I would like a similar function that creates a link to the local file system, replacing the first part of the path with "%USERNAME%" or "%USERPROFILE%". With this function it would be possible to send links to files in the local file system.1 vote -
Allow setup quota for Box Driver(Mac)
Currently there's no way in Mac to check my Box driver's quota setting, nor allow me change it.
Please open this feature to us. I want to use that to control my Mac's disk usage, especially when I need to upgrade my Mac to latest OS. I need to release my disck space for upgrading.1 vote -

Python example for "create upload session" is wrong
The Python sample for "Create upload session" seems wrong:
What you provided is:
filesize = 26000000
uploadsession = client.file('11111').createuploadsession(file_size)But it should be:
client.folder('11111').createuploadsession(filesize, filesize).Please check and confirm.

Need Box for Android link on downloads page
Please add a link to "Box Android" (https://lmu.app.box.com/services/box_for_android) to the Box downloads page (https://www.box.com/resources/downloads).
That's a great resources page that I use to share all the main Box apps that my user community should be using, but it is missing a link to Box for Android.
Thanks! :)

"Start Collaborating" modal is too obtrusive for viewers
When I share Box Notes with clients, they see the "Start Collaborating" modal appear, then come back to me asking why should they need to register just to view documents. It's not obvious this modal can be closed out to continue viewing the doc. Instead of a modal, perhaps this can be a small topbar box. Otherwise, this issue comes up enough to make me consider going back to Google Docs for client communications.

Add-ons tab and drawing ability
The one crucial thing is that people cannot today leave google docs or other Word editing software. Because the G-suite integration misses the add-ons tab. You can buy stuff via the add-ons tab in google drive, like icons and symbols. These cannot be used in the g suite integration.
Also the draw option is not available. I want to be able to draw tables and figures in my documents, i can't do that. So if im Writing in a document, at some Point i have to stop and refer back to google drive, which makes the whole idea of using…

Reporting for Former Employee(s)
I'd like to be able to run reports, like the failed login report, on former employee's deleted accounts. Once their account is deleted, they can no longer be searched so impossible to run a report on that group of individuals.

Tabbed mobile navigation
Currently, I cannot do meaningful work on the Box mobile app. It would be amazing if we could have tabs to enable the navigation within different folders/content at the same time. One tab could be a folder, another tab previewing a doc, another tab, editing a Box Note.

Message on page timing out / becoming inactive
After a certain period of time with no activity, the Box web tabs in the browser become inactive / time out (but not the overall Box session). So users try to upload content or complete other actions but are not successful and don't find the reason why.
It would be good to add a message in the tab when this happens prompting users to refresh the page in order to keep working on that tab.

preset email address in the sign-in dialog in Windows
When using Box Drive on Windows, i would like you to preset email address in the sign-in dialog.
The email address can be get from the domain user's mail attribute.This is mandatory in environments where SSO is enabled/required.
In the case of Box webapp, the IdP's authentication screen opens just by pressing the continue button once.However, in the case of Box Drive, you need to enter an email address to open the IdP screen.
Also, IdP may ask you to enter email address again.The sequence of entering this email address hinders the user experience.

Full path to the file in notification e-mails
I'd like to ask for adding full path to the file (especialy first level) in notification e-mails to use Outlook rules. Starting this year everybody is a member of many BOX groups - less or more important. It would be very usefull to split the notifications into folders.

manage members
Under my organization we have a shared folder for over 1000+ members, but as you may know this is a global organization where we add or remove resources over the time. At this moment I can add them but I do not know how can I remove them. For this I will appreciate to have an option to export the list as CSV file, and as well an option to add or remove permissions in a bulk.
Thanks, My best regards!2 votes -
Report on pinned devices
I would like to get a report on all currently active pinned devices in our enterprise. I can run a report for ‘devices added’, but it didn’t provide the information I wanted, so I added ‘devices removed’. Is there a SIMPLE way to get a report of all pinned devices?
