Ability to automatically add permissions to a group when sending approval task in Relay
When sending an approval task in Relay to a user that does not have folder permissions, Relay would invite that user as collaborator, but if a task is sent to a group, automatic invite does not work. It is crucial to enable to automatically add permissions to a group when sending approval task in Relay

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."

Comment Reply Thread and integration with Office Comments
I have recently had to stop people from using the Box comment feature, as it was adding unnecessary tasks to my workflow, because it does not allow the author to respond to comments, and when i open a word document to edit, the comments disappear. Commenting feature needs to integrate with Office in order to be useful for reviewing MS office documents. As the author i 'must' be able to respond, and close comments, AND when i open the document for edit, i MUST be able to see the comments. The MS Office comment feature is fantastic and if Box…

Restore the account icon that appears on the left side of the input line
"I want you to restore the account icon that appears on the left side of the input line!"
During remote work meetings, we use Boxnote to input multiple people at the same time to communicate with team members, including deaf people. However, due to the version upgrade after autumn, the following inconveniences were seen.
【Inconvenience】
・ The account icon does not appear where the cursor is, and the character input is complicated and it is difficult to know where each person is.
・ Since many cursors have the same color coding, it is difficult to grasp which cursor is who.

Increase metadata field API limit from 3 fields to 5+ or more
Currently, when searching for content using the API, you aren't able to receive results for more than 3 specified metadata fields in the query. If you search for content with fields A, B, C, D, you will only see results for A, B, C. This scale limitation impacts organizations that heavily rely on metadata for use cases at scale.

Enable Box Admin (Content) search results to populate full-width screen, and shown FULL path of content
Having searched for a string " " in Box Admin/Content, the results for a folder do not show the FULL path of that folder, because the full path length is too long for the report width.
I have been advised by Box Support that this is expected.
I suggest that the report width should not be hard-wired (as is currently) to fit laptop-width. Instead, the folder path should wrap onto a new row, or if screen-size allows (eg external monitor), the full path is shown on the same row.
It should also be possible for users to change the width…

Box Pulse ideas - allow screenshots to be added BEFORE approval
When someone takes the time to provide a Box Pulse idea, it is invariably done at the time that an issue occurs. However, by not allowing screenshots to be added (until after approval), the opportunity to receive valuable screenshots justifying the change/enhancement is often lost, as it may be difficult/impossibly to return to the same situation/location to take new screenshots later. Allow screenshots to be added before approvals

Folder path and Page numbers missing from Bin (Box Admin)
Box Admins will regularly view Box accounts of a user, and the user's Bin. Without the Folder Path displayed (which should be SORTABLE and FILTER on), it is difficult to isolate content that was deleted from a specific location.
Instead it is necessary to run a Box Report of a folder, which does include the folder path, then sort the Bin by Updated column, scroll through multiple pages to find content before restoring (hopefully) the correct one(s)
The Bin should display the folder path for each row (where blank Details column is), and be able to SORT that column and…

Enhance Box Reports to store metadata (parameters used) in output folder
Box Admin users regularly run several reports in a day or week, and may not read the content until days after run, and is difficult to identify the purpose it was run for, and the parameters used.
It would be helpful, and not difficult to do, for Box to save the parameters used when creating a report, and perhaps offer users a free-text field to store (at the time it is run) the reasons why it was being run
The following details should be available to view, when a report is completed:
- report type (eg Box Sign, Classification, Collaborations,…2 votes -
Provide Sort and Filters in Box Admin Content Search and results - should be standard
Box Admin / Content - Search: 1) should have filter option to choose search 'only by file or foldername' (ie exclude results where search string only in Updated by;
2) Content - Search results have column headings that disappear when scrolling down - the column headings should be fixed to always display
3) Content - Search results have column headings Name, number of collaborators, Updated By, Date and Size - users should be able to sort ALL or ANY of the columns by clicking/reclicking on the column heading
4) Content - Search results - users should be able to add…

Relay based on folder name
It would be helpful to be able to create a relay workflow based on the folder name so we can auto-copy/move a folder based on a specified folder name.
eg: if a folder starts with 'ZZtest' move the entire folder into another parent folder.6 votes -
User access provisioning
Currently when provisioning folder access for users, the console looks messy with every item listed and 'none' shown next to the granted access - it would be more helpful to only show what they have access to and their level of access. Adding access to a new folder that exists could be done with a dropdown search box

Direct Download Option from Right-Click Context Menu
Currently, when using the Box Drive on Mac Finder or Windows Explorer "right-click > Share > Copy shared link" only gives you the option for a share link that open to the web-browser preview page.
This is obviously not the preferred method for sharing files to people who need to download assets quickly.
Just give the option for "Copy shared link" and "Copy Direct Download link" in the context menu.
Thank you!

"Remember me" added to login
The need to constantly log in multiple times throughout the day when using Box.com is just absolutely an awful experience. This is especially true with integrations. Every time I close a browser window and then click a link, I have to log in again. We use Box as a source for all of our content for an agency so the number of logins is high. And when we receive a link to a piece of content, we have to click "Go to my account" to log in again, which takes us to the homepage, forcing us to click the link…

Leave the username on approval tasks intact even after account deletion
It is hard to trace approval history on a file after the related users are deleted. This causes a lot of friction with customers. It would be better if all usernames would stay on approval tasks even after their respective accounts are deleted.
