Search for multiple files at one time.
Searching for 800 unique files that are in various folders in box.
I am trying to narrow them down and move them to a single folder for organization purposes.
I am currently only able to search for one file at a time but would like to have a way to import a list of names and search that way or at the very least a comma separated search function.

Identify files that fail to sync using Box Sync
In my experience - Box Sync on Windows 10 - I often run into messages "N files could not be synced" - usually because a Mac user saved a file with a name Windows can't handle. If it's only one file, it tells me the name, but if it's more than one, it only shows the number. I would go into Box to rename the files - however, I cannot find any way to identify the offending one. Would love an option on Box Sync that showed the set of files that are throwing sync errors.

Automate quarantining of infected files
While speaking with Box Premiere Support Team, it was stated that there is no current option/means to automatically place an infected file into quarantine. The file stays available and is up to the Content Owner/Site Admin to manually address the issue.
It would be nice to have a feature that automatically placed suspicious/infected files in a designated quarantine folder while it is being reviewed. This will eliminate the potential for someone to accidentally download the file and cause potential harm.

Ability to sync dot-files
I'm a developer and my projects are synced to box, and I need, when I access my projects on another computer, to retrieve all my files, including my "dot" files (such as .env, .gitignore, .editorconfig, etc.). Only, now "dot" files are not synced, as explained on this page:
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195433. This is a problem, so it would be nice to be able to manually force certain files to sync or to have them automatically sync.3 votes -
scan .bak files
For heaven's sake allow box to scan .bak files - it's practically the only reason I'm using box! What's the point of a cloud back up system that won't back up backup files!!

Ability to exclude syncing certain files by type.
Box Drive - exclude syncing certain files by type. I use several software that use this lock file approach and the lock files should NEVER be synced. (sometimes for size reasons, sometimes for frequent uploads and deletes)

Enable selecting files stored in Box directly in File Requests
Currently, file request links only allow you to upload files from local folders.
This is convenient if you use Box Drive, but users who rely solely on the browser have to download files from Box and then re-upload them via the file request link.I would like the file selection for file requests to allow choosing not only folders on the PC, but also files already stored in Box directly from the browser interface.
〈ファイルリクエストでBox内ファイルを直接選択可能にしたい〉
現在、ファイルリクエストリンクでは、ローカルフォルダ内のファイルしかアップロードできません。
Box Drive を利用している場合は便利ですが、ブラウザのみを利用するユーザーは、いったん Box からファイルをダウンロードしてから、ファイルリクエストリンクへ再度アップロードする必要があります。ファイルリクエストでアップロードするファイルの選択時に、PC上のフォルダだけでなく、ブラウザ画面から Box 内に保存されているファイルも直接選べるようにしてほしいです。

Enhance user experience for searching files with tag
As legal department, we manage contract documents using tag but when we search files filtering with them, user experience is not intuitive when I follow steps described below.
- search a keyword filtering with tag
- change the keyword on search box
- filter for tag set in 1 is reset and disappeared
Also, we would like to search file filtering with tag without any keywords in the search box as populating keyword is currently a must to start to search unlike Metadata, which is also inconvenient.
33 votesSearching for tags without a keyword is now possible in the Box web app.
Tag filter is not reset when changing the keyword.

Support for .bak files through Box Drive.
Currently .bak files in Box are not exposed in the Box folder in Explorer, and putting a .bak file in your Box folder will result in a "problem file"

Select multiple properties in files, and create interface like Spotify / Apple Music
Hi Box support and community,
France suggested I suggest here for the following ideas.Is there a way to make a selection of MP3 files all the same properties, ie. all end the same date, etc. ?
Also, After making MP3 files, Can Box make a layout of music files like Spotify or Apple music ? I am working on placing my music on a WordPress site and want it to look similar and nice looking, since I already have those two services on the same webpage. (I hope so).
These are the suggestions. I have these options through…

Currently it is only possible to print a document from the preview window or by opening the document.

Ability to download multiple files from a box hub
We are using Box Hubs to gather assets from various folders in one place for publication. We need to be able to download all the assets so we can color-correct them, and it's a bit tedious to have to download them one by one.

Box Drive Cloud Files: Selecting the Cache Storage
With the release of Box Drive Cloud Files, the specification for where the Box Drive cache is stored has been changed:
Traditional Box Drive: C:\Users<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Box\Box\cache
Box Drive Cloud Files: Same folder as Box Drive
In our company, we have changed the Box Drive mount location and are operating with a reduced capacity on that mounted drive. Due to the above specification change, upload errors caused by insufficient space are occurring.
It is not realistically possible to re-image all corporate users’ PCs and change their storage capacities. A forced migration to Box Drive Cloud Files would therefore impact all…10 votes
