We understand the request, but unfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap. We are currently prioritizing automatically locking/unlocking files on Box Drive for Office files on Windows. We will revisit this feature in the future.

Thanks for your feedback. We unfortunately don’t have plans to support a Linux client for Box Drive at this time.

This would be very handy for us and would cut down significantly on folder sprawl.

Ideally, the dropdown on the Content & Sharing page would allow the admin to set the "Default collaboration role" to any of the Collaboration Roles avaliable.

Currently, if you utilize Box KeySafe, you have to disable advanced search on an organization wide basis. We'd like the ability to utilize both features without negating the protections that KeySafe affords.

This is not on the roadmap for 2019, but is a great suggestion that we may look into in the future.

Currently not planned, but in the meantime we recommend using separate EIDs as a workaround.

We are currently not planning to implement this feature and will continue to prevent all Box Drive results from appearing in Explorer/Finder searches.
Box Drive does not download the all of the metadata (File name, folder structure, etc.) of your Box content. Instead, it is downloaded on demand and then evicted when it is no longer relevant. This eviction process is not visible to users and it is not easily predictable. This would cause the search results in Explorer/Finder to be inconsistent for users – sometimes they would find a file and other times they may not if the metadata and file were evicted.
We have chosen not to download all of the metadata (and then keep it up to date with changes) as this can result in a large performance, storage and bandwidth tax which is not scalable – especially in environments where users interface with millions of files/folders.

Thanks for the feedback! Users already have the ability to selectively sync (mark content for offline access) today in Box Drive. What I believe you’re asking for is a curated view of content you select to show up in Box Drive. That’s something we’re considering as we think about how to solve the content sprawl issue in Box Drive.

This lack of a Linux client continues to be a significant issue. It really is crazy that there's not even a plan to create a linux client.
