  1. 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.

  2. 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)

  3. Shuttle - Allow 'overwrite newer files' on destination

    in same cases, we need shuttle to have the ability to overwrite files which are 'newer' on the destination. Shuttle currently dosent have a switch to enable this for a migration job and will ignore all of these files.

  4. 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…

  5. Can't filter search files marked for offline use to unmark quickly and regain HD space.

    NEED ASAP: See file list of marked for "offline use" to quickly/easily unmark to regain HD space. I regularly run low on space locally. Users should have a way for Box to ID files based on cache of local machine—to "unmark all" quickly, AS WELL AS selectively with a list of files marked offline to keep any files "offline available" as needed. A MUST-HAVE feature for managing files, since the whole point of box is file storage and accessibility.

  6. 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"

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  11. 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.

    1. search a keyword filtering with tag
    2. change the keyword on search box
    3. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. don't show files till all the files are uploaded

    I often send files to coworkers and I dislike that the file is downloadable to them before it's actually fully downloaded to box. This ends up creating a corrupt/ non-workable file for them. Also I think the files should not show up on their end before all the files are completely downloaded, in batch uploads because I will have coworkers then say only some of the files are downloaded and it looks like a mistake when it's just still uploading. Thanks!

  15. 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。

  16. Confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity

    When users copy (Ctrl+C) files on Box Drive, and then paste (Ctrl+V) the files on their desktops, it is almost doing the same thing as "Downloading" or "Copying."
    However, neither the above are recorded in User Activity.
    We would like to be able to confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity.

  20. Choose location for files marked for offline

    Similar to Box Sync, would love to be able to choose a specific location for files marked for offline use in Box Drive. At least we could see the thumbnail previews.
