  1. Document placeholder artefact

    Expected document is a recurrent requirement for many scenarios (board management, underwriting, bid management...). We could add this new artefact, it could have a description, be linked to assignees and have an expected date with automated reminder.

  2. Updated "Modified By" when restoring version of a file

    The “Modified By” field doesn’t update when an old version is promoted – but the “Modified Date” field does. If one field updates, both should. If we are using the file’s metadata for one field, we should use this for both.

  6. Right-click on a file to open in a new tab.

    We need an easy way to open multiple tabs for a file. Our writers want to be able to right-click a file name in Box and choose to open in a new tab or window.

  8. Allow users to know whether a file has been updated via Box Drive.

    Add notifications on file updates within Box Drive. If a file is currently updated, we need to view notifications in the web browser as Box Drive does not show this.

  11. Wait until Save Changes before enabling email uploads

    When ticking ‘box’ to create email for folder upload (https://community.box.com/t5/Upload-and-Download-Files-and/Upload-to-Box-Through-Email/ta-p/50552), do not update change automatically, wait until you hit the “Save Changes” button. We have had users tick this box unintentionally and mess up a complicated workflow.

    Interesting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

  13. Notification about Update of File

    If you share a link to a file or folder, is there a way for recipients on that file to be notified that the file has been updated or in the case of a folder that another file has been added?

    For example, when they receive the link, could there be a message that says, if you'd like to get updated about this file/folder enter your e-mail. Then Box has a way of sending them the updates.

  14. 'Hide Collaborators' allows users to see who updated a file/folder if the updating user is an owner

    On the 'Hide Collaborators' option, the text note says "If enabled, only the folder owner and co-owners will be able to view collaborators and their activity in the folder. This also removes the ability for non-owners to invite collaborators".

    In reality, a user is able to see the name of a user who has last updated a file/folder but only if that user who last updated is the owner. I feel like the above definition isn't clear enough and makes it seem as though only owners/co-owners can see collaborators.

  15. Retain Mark for Offline setting when logging out and re-signing into Box

    Currently if a user marks content for offline access in any of the mobile devices once the user logs out the content is removed from offline. The next time they sign in to the Box app, content needs to be marked for offline again. The request is to remember content has been marked for offline access on the mobile device so the next time they log in it makes the experience more seamless

  16. Allow use of punctuation symbols in file and folder names

    Our users cannot use punctuation symbols when naming folders/files and it’s causing their end users problems. Sometimes using more than one space between words is causing them problems.

    They use Box exclusively through the webapp, so it doesn’t seem that this is a desktop related issue or that it’s a Sync related issue. I have heard of some limitations with Windows via the desktop when it comes to folder/file names syncing over.

  18. Modify shared link settings on multiple files/folders at once.

    E.g., if I want to remove sharing from all of the items I found in my search results (above) then I multi-select and adjust sharing.

  20. Search Skill card metadata from Box Drive

    Searching for skills-enabled content, a video for example, in the webapp returns results from the various skill cards such as the transcript and keywords and this is part of what makes skills so valuable and powerful. The same search from Box Drive returns nothing based on skill metadata however so users would instead have to try and search based on other information, such as the filename, etc. As skills becomes more prevalent, the search behavior should be more consistent across interfaces if/when possible.
