Description

Currently if you have 10 files appear in the Content Explorer, you can only download or delete them one at a time. On Box.com, you can select and do this for multiple files all at once.

For repeating workflows it makes a big difference!

Research direction

Start at the Content Explorer component and trace how file selection currently drives download and delete actions. Review the existing selection and action handling before determining the required changes. Done means users can select multiple files and download or delete the selected files together.
