Account based folder notification settings
We would like to allow each collaborator to configure their own folder notification settings for each folder. Currently, all collaborators must use the same email notification settings designated by an owner or co-owner.
Some collaborators may be waiting on file uploads or downloads and want an email notification, but other collaborators may not want the noise in their inbox. The "override defaults" option in folder settings should only apply to the currently logged in user account.

Limit office files (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) to be open through their corresponding web version
Limit office files (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) to be open through their corresponding web version. That is, only allowing these office files to be opened only through Word Online, Excel Online, etc. As of right now, these files are able to be opened through Google Docs and Google sheets, which alters the formatting of their original files.

Option to Remove "Upgrade Plan" Button
I'm a business customer with a paid subscription. Please give me an option to remove the "Upgrade Plan" button. It negatively impacts UX and takes up valuable real estate at the top of every page. It also subtly suggests that my current purchase is less valuable/important than a more expensive plan.

Detect empty folders
Is there a way to detect empty folders in Box (so we can delete them if needed, to simplify a folder tree) ?
Maybe a tool on a computer can work (like Remove Empty Directories) but it would be great if it was detected by Box itself.1 vote -
I would like to be able to view the history of previous versions of files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the Box Web
内容：
We would like to be able to check the contents of Excel files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the preview screen by clicking on the older version, just like Word, pptx, and other Office files.
The only way to check the contents of the old version is to download or make the old version the latest version, which is very inconvenient.
Achieving this functionality will increase operational efficiency and convenience.[タイトル]Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したファイルの旧バージョン履歴をBox Webのプレビュー上で閲覧できるようにしてほしい。
Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したExcelファイルでも、Wordやpptx等のOfficeファイル同様に旧バージョンをクリックすることでプレビュー画面上から中身を確認出来るようにしたい。
旧バージョンの中身を確認する場合はダウンロードか旧バージョンを最新バージョンにする方法しかなく非常に不便です。
この機能を実現することで業務効率や利便性が上がります。5 votes -

Bring back the comments icon
I get so many notifications it's hard to manage notifications. Can you bring back the comment icon on a file that someone has added their notes to? Unless I click on the file to open it up, I can't tell someone has left a comment or change. Thanks!

Set Custom Time for File Request or Shared Link expiration
Have the ability to set an expiration time in the Web App on the Box File Request. The use case is a submission use case where the need is to have uploads shut off at 3pm vs the default of 11:59pm. The ability to set a different time can only be done at the API/CLI level for the Shared Link only and not the File Request. In addition, you can not set a time within the WebApp for either. This functionality could be extended to other use cases with collaborator access shut off at a specific time of day.

2FA - Option to select SMS or Email as opposed to both
Hi all,
We would like to have the option to select SMS as a 2FA method without having to have email as an option.
Back in April last year Box introduced the option to have email as a 2FA Method. Unfortunately we can’t have Authenticator app and SMS but no email as a setting. Either it’s Authenticator app only or we have to enable emails too.
On productions we go for the Authenticator app as that’s the most secure option, but one of our subsidiaries would like to give the option for SMS too.
Enabling emails is a major security…

Enhance Metadata Search for Text field for Japanese language ("contains" instead of "exact match")
Currently, texts in Metadata can only be searched by exact match especially for Japanese characters. We would like to see an improvement to make it "contains" search as it is available in the standard search.
90 votesWe are planning improvements to how we handle Japanese language queries but this work is not currently on the roadmap in the next 12 months. We will take this into consideration for the annual roadmap for next year.

Ability to save alphabetical sorting
Dennis Bartch
1 year ago
Platform: Windows 10 Enterprise v. 20H2Browser: Chrome v. 94.0.4606.71 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Does anyone know if there a a way to save my "Files and Folders" sorting preference? I want to retain sort by "Name, ascending" as the default, but cannot find anywhere to save it, so every time I navigate away from a folder and return to it, I have to re-sort by name again. The default seems to be "Updated, descending."

Allow Document Date in the Home Page Column name and to sort in chronological order
The ability to add the document date and sort by this will be so helpful. Currently I am naming all documents to include the date to allow to sort chronologically. This feature will be great especially to ensure order of documents and their relevance.

Document Relationships
It would be great if document relationships can be created. E.g Email and their corresponding attachments. Saving Primary document and being able to relate two or more others as linked.
Document relationships will help to avoid needing to make folders to keep related documents together.1 vote -
Improve Box Relay Trigger "A Scheduled Event"
Recommend additional options for repetitive scheduled event triggers. Specifically, the option to repeat monthly on days of the month other than first or last, and to repeat every X months and/or weeks, would be extremely useful for automating assignment and tracking of repetitive tasks.

Migration of files larger than 10MB from Google Drive
As it stands, we are unable to migrate content from Google Drive due with there being a HARD limit of 10MB as the max file size.
Google have a workaround which is outlined here - (1) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55274737/is-there-any-way-download-bigger-than-10mb-documents-using-google-drive-api#:~:text=1-,This%20is%20answered,-in%20this%20question and here (2) https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/reference/files/getThis would mean changing the Shuttle tooling so that Instead of using the Drive API Files:Export method, you can use Files: get (2) with fields = exportLinks.
3 votesThe limit on exporting Google files larger than 10MB is imposed by Google. We have reviewed the various available APIs and workarounds, but none of them produced a viable result. They all have other limitations that make them unsuitable for migration.
We will continue to monitor as Google continues to evolve and adapt its platform, and will look to increase this when or if it becomes viable.
