  1. Edit thumbnails

    We would like the ability to choose/change the thumbnail of an MP4 file. The random thumbnail
    of my latest project shows our guest speaker in an awkward manner. We don't want her to be hesitant to share it! We offer a library of MP4s and consider thumbnail modification an esthetic/branding opportunity.

  2. High Security Permissions Risk with Box Teams Integration on Private Channels that gets Box folder Auto-Created

    Box support needs to address this error immediately.

    Currently, Teams Private Channels are not supposed to have the ability to add the Box app. The behavior we've seen is that if the private channel already exists prior to adding the Box app to the Teams group, the Box app gets added to that private channel as well where it auto creates a Box folder. It works if private channel is added after Box app has been added to the Teams group.

    The response I got from Box support is that they are planning to eventually integrate the Box app in…

  3. Specify how date is displayed within the dynamic naming feature in Relay

    For non US customers... Specify how date is displayed within the dynamic naming feature in Relay. For example, 02/24/2021 vs 24/02/2021

  4. Reporting function for file size and type by folder

    A reporting function for file size and type by folder, including a breakdown of this information for enclosed folders, per-folder.

    For example, we are interested in the space taken (per-folder and by file type) for a body of data in Box, but the aggregate of these folders has roughly 1.1 million files and takes 3.5TB of space. We would like to see a breakdown such that we could see, for example, that of the 3.5TB, XX% is PDF, pictures, music, movies, MS documents, etc., as well as the size of each enclosed folder.

    I started running a "Files and Folders"…

  5. Azure groups - not modifiable

    The azure managed groups should not be modifiable from BOX, as this brings inconsistency in what azure says, as well as brings clutter.

    My example:

    If you have group 1 in azure, replicated in box group 1, you should not be able to modify box group 1 in box, it should be blocked.

    This is already the case in tools like Atlassian, where synced groups from AD are non modifiable.

    This brings security breaches, as, in the admin user console, when you search a user, all the access that he has been given by azure groups, do not apear in…

  8. File request - Block upload of domains not on enterprise allowlisted domains

    For File Request where Enterprise requires user to login prior to submission, would like an additional security check for Enterprises that only allow for external collaboration from allowed domains as listed in the Enterprise console. If the domain is on the list then allow for file request upload, if domain is not on the allowlisted domains, block upload.

  9. Mentions

    Specify multiple people at once when commenting on a comment.

    You can use @mentions to notify users of files in Box, but I think it is extremely inefficient to have to enter the user name from @ every time.

    However, we think it is extremely inefficient to have to type the username from @ every time.
    For example, it would be very convenient to be able to specify @mentions with a single click or by copying and pasting.

    (和訳)
    Box上のファイルに対し、@メンションでユーザーに通知することが出来ますが、毎回@からユーザー名を一から入力する必要がするのは極端に作業効率が悪いと捉えています。

    例えばメールの返信の様な形でワンクリックで指定出来たり、
    コピー&ペーストで指定できるなど、簡単に@メンションが付けられると非常に便利だと思います。

  10. Please add Linux to the support for Box.

    【Background】
    As we use many Linux servers, the total size of the log files is also large.
    Please add Linux as supported, as we want to save the log files stored on the Linux server to the Box.

    【Request】
    Box does not support Linux.
    In the past it was possible to access the Box via WebDAV, but this is no longer supported.
    Please add Linux to the support for Box.
    It would be preferable if it could be mounted like WebDav.
    If the folder on the Box can be mounted on Linux, the application can simply change the specification of…

  11. Make an Exit Button Available Again

    The new update removed the ability to exit a document from the File tab. Now I have to type in Box in a new tab and go back to the folder I want by hand every time I want to exit a document and edit another one. Also, it does not always automatically open a new tab anymore when I open a document, which prevents me from being able to have the folder open in another tab.

  12. Rearrange rows of tables

    We use Box Notes for almost every meeting and use tables to display the agenda. Many meetings have set agenda templates but often the presenters or topics will be shifted based on availability.

    The ability to rearrange the rows/columns in tables would greatly reduce the amount of time I have to create a blank row/column, then copy/cut each individual cell from the row/column I intended to move to the new blank one.

  13. Block single user

    Our security has deemed a single email as suspicious. We would like to block this single email from connecting to our Box, or being collaborated into our Box.

    With Shield we can block the whole domain, but that approach is too broad and would limit too many valid email addresses.

  14. Auto sync of Email folders and attachments from Outlook in Box.

    It would be nice to have two sync options to store data. 1) the current desktop system is fine and works well but ideally 2) you could have a synch to mirror Outlook email folders and attachments . In both cases the user should be allowed to select which folders would be sync'd. PLEASE HELP. !!! Our company is now moving emails over 6 months old into archive and anything over 1 year old is being deleted . Only way to save now is via box but that only helps for recreating folders on desktop and linking to box. Would…

  15. Shield classification user permissions

    Request to make classification application settings specific to the classification. Currently, the setting for who can apply/remove a classification is for all classifications, but there are cases where it would be helpful that a classification to be only applied by owners and other where co-owner, or even editor would be allowed to apply certain classifications.

    Examples:
    1. A classification tied to a Shield access control rule that only owners can apply or remove
    2. A classification tied to a Shield access control rule that owner/co-owners can apply or remove
    3. A classification identifying a type of content that owners/co-owner/editors can…

  16. Please Improve the overwriting of a file with the same name when it is uploaded with "Previewer/uploader" permission.

    Please improve the following problems that occur when using the "Pre Viewer/ Uploader" privilege.

    When a file with the same name as an existing file is uploaded, the file is overwritten and saved.

    When a user with the "Pre Viewer/ Uploader" privilege uploads the same file name, Please the file name should be automatically converted to a different file name from the existing file, such as "File Name_2", so that it can be uploaded.

    【日本語】-----------------------------------------------------------
    「プレビューアー/アップローダー」権限の際に起こる下記現象を改善してください。

    既に存在しているファイルと同一名のファイルをアップロードした際、上書き保存されてしまう事象。

    「プレビューアー/アップローダー」権限のユーザーが同一ファイル名をアップロードした際は「ファイル名_2」等、既存のファイルとは別のファイルへファイル名を自動変換しアップロード可能にしてほしい。

  17. Warning/Prompt before deleting items in Box Drive

    This is to avoid users accidentally deleting content in Box Drive. Users sometimes delete items unintentionally and it's too late for them when they receive email notifications.

  18. Collaboration expiration for specific collaborators

    Collaboration expiration can only be applied on a folder level at the moment and cannot be applied to specific collaborators. I would like this feature for specific collaborators in a folder.

  19. Save a Search Query as a Collection

    When you search, have an option to save the search query as a Collection that then gets dynamically updated.

    Good use case: search query for "Folders Created Today" and save that as a Collection (or some other entity in Box).

    Other platforms do this with search already and users enjoy it!

  20. Microsoft Office, most recent documents

    • In Microsoft Office, if you want to open a recent document, it only shows you your 3 latest documents from Box, whereas with our old server (or items you save directly to your computer), it goes back MONTHS.
