UI alert on invite message when character limit is exceeded
It is VERY annoying to write a nice detailed note to the person you are inviting and then have it just disappear bc the character limit has been exceeded. Box should either not allow you to exceed the character limit, or at least have it refuse to send the invite but not completely delete everything you have just written!!!

Empty Folder Notification
Someway to turn on notification based on folder or another relay.
Where specific folders cannot be empty, and after a week or so it is empty, we get a notification and alert once a month about it.1 vote -
Enhance sorting (alphabetical order)
We use box for our law firm. We often have hundreds of exhibits in a folder. For example: "Exhibit 1 - XYZ Transcript." The exhibits should be listed in alphabetical order, so that Exhibit 1 is first, Exhibit 2 second, so on. But when there is an "Exhibit 11" that becomes the second exhibit listed, "Exhibit 12" the third exhibit. Please build an option to fix this so that they are put in the correct alphabetical order.
Using lettering rather than numeration doesn't help because there usually more than 26 exhibits.

Disable all Web App Integrations with selective permit (whitelist)
There are many Web App Integrations and some are "added by default" or are "available". Would like to change this behavior to disabled by default and then selectively enable (whitelist) specific applications.

UI enhancement - View full file names
It is frustrating that I can't read the full file name when looking at box online, I cannot adjust the column widths with the file information and if I hover over the file name it still does not show me the file name. Any one of those options would be useful.

Box drive's system extension update
I am running BoxDrive version 2.23.422
After I upgrade my Mac (for example, from BigSur 11.5 -> 11.6), I get an error dialog the first time I try to open Box Drive. It says "Box Drive's system extension failed to load. Please make sure it has been enabled in System Preferences > Security & Privacy and then restart your computer. ....".
Reinstalling Box Drive and restarting the computer doesn't fix it. I found a workaround at https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360051323454-Box-Drive-s-system-extension-failed-to-load which fixes it, but I have to apply that workaround each time I upgrade my computer. The problem should either be fixed, or…

Box Relay
Allow metadata and other substitutions in the message body and subject lines of the Assign a Task and Send a Notification outcomes. We would like to be able to customize message body and subject lines with one or more metadata items. As an example, if we have a workflow that is being run for each of several subject people (think onboarding a group of new employees), the tasks will be assigned to the same user for multiple people. We'd like to add name of target employee in the subject line or body of the outcomes.

Dynamic File Requests
The ability to utilize File Request to send dynamic file requests. We often request multiple files from our clients. These requests can be 25+ items. It would be beneficial to send a list of required information where the client (external user) could could upload the requested file and the file would retain the name of the item on the original list.
The ability for external users (those with the file request) to see what items on the request list have been fulfilled and which items are still outstanding would be ideal.
It would also be extremely helpful to be able…

Download selected version when preview unavailable
Download currently selected version in main window when preview is unavailable on Box.com
Presently, if the preview is unavailable when reviewing file versions, there is a "Preview is unavailable" message and a "Download" button appears there, but it only downloads the current (latest) version, not the version selected in the side bar.
While the file is available in the side bar with the ellipses, the download button does not indicate that is will only download the latest version, and not the version selected (but not preview able) in the side. This has caused confusion with our employees as our large…

Shield access policy customization - inclusion/exclusion list for downloading files
Interested in an inclusion/exclusion list FOR downloading files, as part of a Shield access policy.
Ex: If Owners/Co-Owners/Editors are OK to download they want control the file types they can download. I know you can control this by just creating a separate classification and policy but that could cause too many of them. Better to create an filetype inclusion list

Ability to prevent the admin passwords from expiring
We have our copy machines scan documents directly into Box folders. However those processes periodically fail because Box currently has no ability to stop the Administrator password from expiring.
Please allow an option in the Admin Console where you can select to have the Admin password not expire.

Improve Gmail Integration
I was hoping that the integration with gmail could be as robust as it is with outlook. I really enjoyed the features of the outlook Box integration and now that I'm on gmail it's a huge step backwards.

Restrict Number of users in Group
I would like the option to restrict the number of users in a group.
The reason is each department has a cap to how many users they can register and if we can stop other admin adding more than they are allowed, it would make the management easier.6 votes -
Improve the Box for Slack to have the ability to save messages in Slack to Box
My company's Slack has a 1-year retention policy and messages are to delete within 1 year. I would like to archive messages in Slack to Box (in any searchable form e.g. text, word, BoxNotes etc).
For your information, Evernote can do this

Report on new data platform doesn't reflect latest information
Report on new data platform doesn't reflect latest information
To improve report performance, Box migrated legacy to new data platform on collaboration report recently. However, new one will take about 24 hours to reflect latest data into exported report. It could be harder for admin to audit new collaboration on enterprise using report feature. There are two request for this change :
- Make sure that admin knows when the exported report is as of
- Reflect much faster like User Detail Report which can reflect 1 hours ago
