  3. Online-only applied recursively to mixed folder

    It would be great if you could "online-only" a given folder when its contents within are a mix of partially online and offline.

    My workflow often requires me to have individual files sporadically made available offline within folder structures, over weeks and months. Easy to lose track of what's locally stored and what's not.

    I don't seem to have an option available to click on a given folder with partially offline / partially online files and just tell it to all become "online only" in a recursive manner.

    On these types of partially synced folders, all I see is the…

  6. Support for passing of special characters (as-is) in query (Box Metadata Query API)

    Per the suggestions ...

    Use of an "=" could be utilized
    Unfortunately, this would break the ability for our search bar to also do loose matches around the "typed search term"
    (e.g. "Broadway &" query will not return "Broadway & Commercial"

    Use of "%" wildcard to replace noted special character
    Unfortunately, the results will then be too varied. Any characters will be up for substitution.
    (e.g. "C&R" query will then also return "car", "candor", corridor", etc.)

    *** Could we confirm if there is an appropriate way for special characters to be passed and recognized as-is?

    The above suggested workarounds would…

  7. Flag mutliple folders for Offline User

    Currently, in order to mark a folder/file for offline, you have to do it individually. It would be nice to have the ability to drag select folders/file and have the context menu provide the option to mark grouped items as available, as you might with any other native Windows function.

  8. sign template versioning

    The ability to version control Box Sign Templates. Within the life science space you have to be able to prove that a form that was filled in and signed used the latest version of the form at the time of signature.

  9. Box Relay Outcome to Create Bookmark

    It would be great if there was an option to create a bookmark to another folder, for example one that may have triggered the flow. If using multiple different file trees it would help users to be able to navigate around if these could be automatically created.

  10. Leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.

    Context : Allow box subscription tenants to leverage the External Identity providers like OKTA to securely access the Box API’s.

    Use case: Tenants like us want to centralize the access to the APIs to our external vendors partners and internal teams. It is always beneficial to centralize the access using OKTA like OAUTH 2.0 providers and move to zero trust.

  11. Stand up on bandwidth and API usage.

    Hi I am a user on the Enterprise plan, but the limitations on upload/download and API calls for the Enterprise plan are really not enough.

    Can the monthly file upload and download or bandwidth usage limit be changed to 10TB?

    As for API calls per month, can the monthly API call limit be changed to 2,000,000?

    I think this replacement rule proposal is a good fit for both parties.

  12. Box Drive uses all upload bandwidth when sync

    Set an option to limit the upload (optional and the download) bandwidth when sync is in progress or upload large files, because when devices are connected to slow internet lines, it consumes the entire bandwidth and cannot work properly.
    Note that this is a standad feature of other similar tools.

  13. We would like to see Box Tools improved to support an on/off switch for proxies

    Currently Box Tools does not support the ON/OFF switch for proxy settings, so Excel cannot be used without restarting Box Tools when switching to a connection to another company's service.
    It is inconvenient to restart Box Tools every time we connect to another company's service, so we would like to see Box Tools improved to support an on/off switch for proxies so that Excel can be used without restarting Box Tools.

    <Box ToolsがプロキシのON/OFFのスイッチに対応するよう改善してほしい>
    現状Box Toolsがプロキシ設定のON/OFFのスイッチに対応していないため、他社サービスの接続へ切り替えの際にBox Toolsを再起動しないとExcelが利用できません。
    他社サービスの接続のたびにBox Toolsを再起動するのは不便なので、Box Toolsを再起動しなくてもExcelが使えるようにBox ToolsがプロキシのON/OFFのスイッチに対応するよう改善してほしいです。

  14. Make initial sorting of folders into Collections easier

    I have a lot of Box folders shared with me that I cannot organize into broader folders. To help with the initial process of using Collections to organize all of these folders, it would be great if there was a way to view all folders while on the Collections page and they could disappear as you “collect” them so you easily know when you’ve put them all in their various Collections (similar to filing things on File Explorer).

  15. Enhanced filtering/sorting when selecting folders and files

    When selecting the affected folders and files the search filtering could use some enhancements.

    I'll use the user filter options and search for a keyword but there are so many hits to filter through - it would be great to have some options on sorting the list. At the very least to sort alphabetically.

  17. Open the linked file in the notification email in Box Drive.

    When we receive a notification about a folder or file, click on the link in the email and we will be redirected to your browser.
    For users who mainly use Box Drive, being able to transition only to the Web is an added hassle.
    We would like to be able to open files linked to in the notification email in Box Drive as well.

    通知メール内のリンク先のファイルをBox Driveで開く

    フォルダやファイルに関する通知を受け取った場合、メール内にあるリンクをクリックするとブラウザに遷移されます。
    Box Driveを主に使っているユーザーにとってはWebにしか遷移できないないのは手間が増えます。
    通知メール内のリンク先のファイルをBox Driveでも開けるようにしてください。

  18. Box for Microsoft Office Co-Authoring for Password Protected Files

    Unfortunately, co-authoring option is not currently supported for password-protected files. Box have told me this is because the system considers the password protection as a lock.
    Therefore bringing it your attention to add this feature request.

    Also we are finding that co-authoring takes a lot long to open files and it is not as smooth as its made out to be.

  19. A function that allows users to check classification labels at the folder level from the mobile app.

    When storing highly confidential information in Box, it is necessary for each end user to recognize that the folder as a whole contains confidential information.
    While BoxWeb can recognize folders that confidential information by using classification labels, the mobile app (Box for EMM) cannot.
    Since users need to be aware that the folder as a whole handles confidential information, please implement a function that allows users to check classification labels at the folder level from the mobile app.

    <モバイルアプリからフォルダレベルの分類ラベルを確認できる機能>
    Boxへ機密性の高い情報を格納するにあたり、エンドユーザーそれぞれがフォルダ全体として機密情報が格納されていることを認識する必要があると考えます。
    BoxWebからは分類ラベルを利用することで機密情報保管フォルダを認識可能ですが、モバイルアプリ(Box for EMM)からでは確認できません。
    フォルダ全体として機微情報を扱うフォルダであることをユーザーに認識づける必要があるため、モバイルアプリからフォルダレベルで分類ラベルを確認できる機能を実装してください。

  20. Box Sign: Ask new file name at the start of using Box Sign templates

    I know we can change the file name from the menu at top-right, but users forget to change the file name before sending the request. New files will be created with the file names like "Template", "Template (1)" "Template (2)"... in the same folder. Users who receive the requests cannot identify the content of the file from that kind of file names. Also, it is annoying to rename the file after sending requests.
