  1. Critical Feature Request: Search Function Needed for External Box Links

    As a customer managing 7,000+ files on Box.com, we're considering alternative platforms due to a significant limitation in your service. While we've invested in premium features the inability for external users to search within shared links essentially nullifies these efforts.

    Key Issue:
    External users cannot search within shared links, rendering our organized file structure and tagging system useless during client collaboration. This limitation alone makes us question our continued use of Box.com, as it creates unnecessary friction.

    Proposed Solution:
    Enable search functionality within shared links to:

    -Improve client experience
    -Maximize value of premium features
    -Maintain professional workflow
    - eliminate double…

  3. Automatically generate a password for the shared link

    I would like to request the addition of a feature that generates a random password meeting the password requirements on the screen where users create an open sharing link and are prompted to set a password.
    When there is a requirement to set a password, manually creating a password each time can be burdensome.

  4. Interval in metadata trigger

    Hi! Would it be possible to add the ability in Box Relay for the flow to be dependent on the interval between 2 values of numeric metadata?
    Now we only have options like "less than", "greater than", but it would be great if we could set the trigger dependance "from...to" like in the search filter

  7. Display TIFF Files without strict metadata validation

    TIFF generated across different business, internal and external streams are not consistent with the meta data validation. Some times, the file metadata claims the embedded JPEG uses 1x1 sampling (no subsampling, full resolution), but the actual JPEG data uses 2x1 horizontal chroma subsampling.

    In these cases strict validations causes failures to preview the TIFF images, converting millions of such images to PDFs is not scalable effort.

    BOX to provide a feature to ignore strict validation of the meta data.

  8. Support for User-Specific Folder Visibility in HUB

    We have use cases where we need to display only the folders a user has access to within a specific directory—such as a users directory in root directory. Currently, the only way to achieve this with HUB is by creating a separate HUB for each user, which is difficult to manage and scale. A feature that allows displaying only the folders a user has permission to access would be much easier to maintain and could support multiple users through a single HUB configuration.

  11. Extend the Collaborations Endpoint to Support "Accepted" Status Filter

    Proposed Improvement:
    Extend the Box API Collaborations Endpoint to Support "Accepted" Status Filter

    Current Endpoint Description:
    The current Box API endpoint for retrieving collaborations (GET /collaborations) supports filtering by collaboration status, but it is limited to the status=pending parameter. This allows users to retrieve only pending collaboration invitations for files and folders. The endpoint is documented at:
    https://developer.box.com/reference/get-collaborations/#param-status

    Proposed Enhancement:
    Extend the GET /collaborations endpoint to include support for the status=accepted filter, enabling developers to retrieve all active (accepted) collaborations on files and folders owned by a specific Box user. This enhancement would improve the ability to manage and audit…

  12. The ability to create File Request Links on Box Mobile

    We would like to see the ability for Box File Request to be created from the Box Mobile App.

    This capability will allow us to provide secure, ad-hoc uploading portals for our users when out on the field and away from a laptop. This will ensure that we can get the most relevant documents and images as quickly as possible.

    Please consider adding this capability for Box mobile so that we may securely acquire content while on the field.

  13. Adding metadata to files uploaded by Box Forms

    When uploading files/content to Box Forms, have the ability to add the metadata attributes captured on the form to the files. And for managed users in the Box account provide the option to add metadata to all files, selected files and/or selected metadata on selected files. Similar to file uploader in Crooze.

  14. Box AI for Hubs for External Users

    Currently, in order for an external user to use AI for a Hub they are invited into, the external user's EID must also have Enterprise Plus AND have enabled AI for Hubs.

    We would like an option to grant external users AI access if their EID doesn't have Enterprise Plus. Thank you!

  15. Display of confirmation message screen to prevent accidental operation of Box Drive

    When using Box Drive, it is common for users to accidentally delete, move, or copy files.

    When manipulating large numbers of files, this failure can lead to serious information leaks and other problems.
    Therefore, it would be helpful to improve functionality such as displaying a confirmation message when deleting, moving, or copying files to better prevent accidental operations.

  16. Addition of the ability to enforce “file request” expiration dates.

    Currently, users can set an expiration date at their discretion in “File Request”, but there is no function for the administrator to enforce the expiration date setting. In order to deter external attacks and to ensure more secure operations, it would be ideal to have a function that allows the expiration date to be enforced.

  17. Include item type in user activity report

    When running an User Activity report, the Item ID is included, but not the Item Type. If you're trying to use the Activity report to perform some other action, you have to figure out what the item type is before you can perform the action. Additionally as ?good practice? you should make check both file & folder to ensure that you're not going against the wrong actual item if there's a item with the same type on the other endpoint.

    It would save some significant time on report consumer's side if the item type was included in the output report.

  18. Box drive for surface pro

    I have the latest surface pro laptop, but it says box drive is not compatible with this device. I use the drive version heavily for work and prefer not use a different content management software. . Surface pro suggested reaching out to box for support. The model features the Snapdragon X plus (10 core)/ X Elite. Can you provide an update that makes the drive compatible?

  19. Show Folder Size in GB/MB at root and tree level, inside

    To see, at a glance inside the Box.com web interface inspector, the file size allocated to each parent folder and should I click in, each sibling folder. Right now, the interface only gives the number of files, which is deeply unhelpful when trying to assess what folders are taking up how much storage...

  20. Change the warning message when external users change their password.

    The new feature "Enable detection of confirmed leaked passwords" has been applied.

    If an invited external user does not meet the password criteria, they will be required to change their password.

    When entering a new password, if the password does not meet the requirements, a message will appear stating "Password was exposed in a data breach"

    This message is confusing as it misleadingly suggests that a data breach has occurred on the tenant's side.

    Therefore, please change it to something appropriate, such as "The password you entered is weak, please make it more complex."

    新機能の「漏えいが確認されたパスワードの検出を有効にする」を適用してます。 招待された外部ユーザーがパスワード条件を満たしていない場合、パスワードを変更する必要があります。
    新しいパスワードを入力したとき、条件を満たしていないパスワードを入れると、「データ侵害で漏えいが確認されたパスワードです」とメッセージが表示されます。
    このメッセージでは、テナント側でデータ侵害が発生したという誤解を生むような表現となっており、混乱します。
    よって、「入力したパスワードは脆弱なので、より複雑なものにしてください」といった適した内容に修正してください。
