API that facilitates multiple folders creation
At present, we have the capability to create individual folders from salesforce. Is it possible for Box to offer us an API that facilitates multiple folders creation in one transaction?

Prevent file duplication when using template and file replacement
Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common…39 votes -

While we don’t have any current plans to support this feature, I would recommend the following workaround to use the ‘Description’ field that appears at the top of a folder. You can even add hyperlinks into the description! More information is available here: https://community.box.com/t5/How-to-Guides-for-Migrating-and/Adding-Descriptions-to-Folders-and-Files/ta-p/58565

Block users from placing content into File Explorer locations that they don't have rights to within Box
The current user experience can be confusing to the user, because they are able to place files into File Explorer even though they don’t have rights within Box to write to that location. Box Drive does issue notices that the files are not syncing to the server; however, this can still create an issue for novice users, since the files still exist within File Explorer and allow the user to make changes to the files locally. It would be preferred if Box Drive blocked the user from placing anything into that location within File Explorer.

Box needs an ability to pause certain file uploads/transfers
When trying to upload files to meet a deadline, I sometimes have large working files using up all my transfer space. The ability to pause or stop certain files from uploading, prioritizing others would be extremely helpful. This would also be beneficial for metered connections while travelling. Thanks.

Box Sign to provide multiple languages in the application
For Sign to provide multiple languages natively in the application, rather that having to use a translator to send multi-language requests.
This would help in international markets where specifics languages are being used and require the form to be run through a translator.

Allow me to link to other folders and files in box
I can create a bookmark to another folder in box, but the experience and visualisation of these is not useful - links to folders get lost in the file list.
Bookmarks to other folders in box, should be listed as a folder, not a file, perhaps with a different icon to show they are linked folders rather than hierarchic folders.

Return collaborated files (single file collab SFC) under a folder via API
Currently, there are two API calls surrounding getting a list of collaborations:
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#view-a-folders-collaborations
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-file-collaborationsHowever, say a collaborated file exists under a non-collaborated/private folder. Now say the folder is large. It would be less easy to get a list of collaborated files under this folder without iterating through every single file.

Streamline CFR Part 11 Authentication for Multiple Signatures
When signing a document that requires multiple signatures from the same user, Box Sign currently prompts for CFR Part 11 authentication for each individual signature. This can be inefficient and frustrating, especially for longer documents. We propose enhancing Box Sign to require authentication only once per signing request—while still maintaining regulatory compliance.

Box/MS Teams integration - prevent native file sharing
Need to add an explanation to the webpage on integrating the Box app with MS Teams:
Box file sharing is not practical in Teams if users are still able to attach files using the built-in Sharepoint capabilities of Teams. Box needs to explain how to turn off the native file sharing in Teams, thereby forcing users to use Box.
Apparently, there is a way to turn off the ability for teams to create SP doc libraries.

Use Box Relay to remove files from a folder using a wildcard like "*.PNG"
When emailing file attachments into a Box folder, Box also includes undesirable files such as logos, signature images, etc. The logo and related files are not consistently named so you cannot select a specific file to delete. Could you modify Box Relay so that users could delete these files in a named folder using the wildcard function i.e. .PNG?
So it would be Action=A File Action, Delete. Then the user would identify the folder where to delete and select a new option named "delete by file name". There the user would enter ".PNG" or something similar.1 vote -
Select and Take Action on Multiple Sign Requests | Bulk actions
With Batch Send now available, higher volume e-signature use cases should become more and more prevalent. It'd be great to have the ability to select multiple Sent Requests for Sending a Reminder, Downloading the document, Canceling the Request, and Deleting the Request, as today this must be done on a one by one basis. This would help Box Sign users manage their requests in a more efficient way.

Allow naming files before uploading on box mobile
My company previously used Box Capture to record videos of our packed product before going out the door to customers. This helped identify skids if lost by the carrier, as well as identify products reported missing by customers. This worked really well for us for many years.
However, Box Capture is no longer supported and "all of the functionality" was supposed to be available with Box Mobile. However, there is one issue that we immediately discovered is different and is costing us extra time. With Box Mobile, you have to upload the video to Box, then go back into the…
