  3. Ability to access box when email is updated and user is signed via SSO

    that when a client is using SSO and it sees an email update that it will update the email address in Box. Reference Case #2497722.

    e.g. john.doe@company.com has a box account via sso, the box account is under john.doe@company.com. When John changes name to john.doe-smith@company.com, the user cannot access Box because the Box account did not automatically update with the user.

  4. Inactive Status - Should have visual indicator that shows the account is inactive when user is still a collaborator on folder/file

    When I change a user to inactive in the admin console, The user is still a collaborator on a folder or file. There is no way for the active folder collaborators to know if people are active or inactive. The inactive user should either appear greyed out in the list of users or have an red x or something to indicate this user is no longer active. You would become aware if you try to send a comment or at mention to the inactive user it will not pop up but that still doesnt emphasis that person is no longer…

  5. Unified Deletion Process for Box Sign Documents

    When a document is sent via Box Sign, information is recorded in the Sign App, the designated request folder, and the 'My Signed Requests' folder for anyone signing the document. If we receive a privacy request to scrub data (GDPR, CCPA, etc.) we have to remove the data from all three places.

    It would be nice to select the document in Box Sign, click delete/trash, and have it pop up to ask about removing the other files that Sign generated for the associated file across all folders the requestor has access to. This will save us a lot of time…

  6. Ability to customize folder description on account deletion and content transfer process

    When the Enterprise Admin deletes an account and data is moved to another person, the destination folder's Description text needs to be adjustable. Instead of "If you have any questions" we do not want the users to reach out to the Enterprise Admin, but instead to raise an IT case.

  7. Ability to manage pop-up messages

    Integrate a switch to turn off pop-up notifications (those which pop up for every single step or process).
    Maybe have different levels of notifications, like for debugging ("none" to "confirm every step")
    There are way too many pop-ups in Box worsening the "user-experience".
    See what can happen, if you have daily several hundreds or thousands of clicks too much to do for unnecessary things like clicking away pop-up windows which notify you about things you already know you have done (like another user put it so aptly into Box community):
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpal_tunnel_syndrome
    https://theboar.org/2014/08/point-click-dangers-carpal-tunnel-syndrome/

    Let everyone choose individual Box-feedback levels for themselves…

  8. Allow me to include Emojis in the titles of a Box Note

    Right now I can use Emojis inside of a Box Note, but I can't include them in the title, or else I get "Sorry, the name can't contain forward or backward slashes. Please try a different name."

  9. Additional restrictions with Box Outlook Add-in for Enterprise and Personal Box accounts

    The Box outlook add-in can connect to enterprise Box accounts as well as personal Box accounts thereby creating a slight risk where individuals can choose to upload sensitive documents into their personal Box accounts even when they are connected to their office outlook email from within the firm infrastructure.
    Need an enhancement to the outlook add-in to only allow for authorized Box accounts to log-in through outlook once they've been granted access to the application through Office 365

  11. 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.

    We 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.

  12. Ability to select external users who are collaborating on a folder to be notified of workflows created in Relay

    Currently, it is possible to set external users as notification recipients for workflows created in Relay only under certain conditions.

    Conditions:
     ・The folder/file is owned by the creator of the Relay Workflow.
     ・It is the external user who is invited to this folder/file that is set as the notification destination.

    There are many situations in which we want to send notifications to external users in Relay workflows.
    However, in a tenant running a closed folder configuration, it is rare that the workflow creator is the owner of the folder.

    Request:
    For managed users who are collaborating on folders and who…

  14. Display warning if a document is open

    Display a warning similar to read-only if another team member has a file open. Currently this is not possible without code installed at the individual PC level and there is no solution with MAC (just confirmed with support). The conflicting versions can be frustrating for teams and the tiny lock icon is just not a large enough warning when opening from box drive.

    For Office files stored in Box, we are enabling the capability coauthor in real-time with collaborators. This will eliminate issues that arise when creating conflict copies. For other files types that do not support coauthoring, we do not have a feature planned on our roadmap, to notify users when the file is locked outside of the lock icon that is displayed on the file in the Explorer/Finder view. 

    We will place this in our backlog as we continue evaluating ideas to improve Box Drive.

    Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

  15. User activity report - files copied with 'save as' function

    Add a User Activity report File Management action to capture when a file has been saved as a copy with a different name (i.e. "Save as" from Box Edit).

  18. Modify File Request Submit Button width

    Hi,

    the following case in the business account of our company.

    Is it possible to set the submit button in the file request to 100% width?
    If the browser is set in German, the label of the button is translated to „Übermitteln“. However, this no longer fits in because the width was set to 74px.

  19. Block Google Drive and enable all Google Workplace files to auto roll-in to Box instead.

    Block Google Drive and enable all Google Workplace files to auto roll-in to Box instead. This gets us a step closer to the vision of Box as the single place for all content.

    Today, even though I have Box, employees can still save into Google Drive, which creates security, governance, privacy, and other risks.

  20. Add initials to the "Signatures & Fields" menu in Box Sign

    Many documents (e.g. Wills, contracts) require the signer to initial each page to confirm that they have read and agree with the content of that page. It's also common to have a signer initial a section of a document to confirm that they have read and agree with that section. A typical workflow requires the signer to initial a document one or more times, then sign the document. DocuSign fully supports this feature.
