  2. Box has recently changed the way file verssions count against storage quota.

    With a Personal Pro account type there is no way to limit the number of file versions its set at 10. This makes 100gb of storage into 10gb of storage with each file saved 10 times. I'd like to see an option to limit or turn off file versions as I understand the Enterprise edition has. Also, there is no way to quickly delete all these unnecessary and unwanted file versions. I was told we need to click each file and delete each version one by one. I'd like to see a quick global way to delete old file versions.

  4. Share this link. Box.com's aggressive marketing misleads our customers.

    Hello Box!

    Unfortunately, we cannot fully use your product due to your company's aggressive marketing, which misleads external users.

    The problem lies in the implementation of sharing public links to files or folders with external users:

    1. When an external user opens the link, they see a pop-up message from Box in a green field (as shown in screenshot 1): "Log in to Box to save all files you view in your Recents and return to them at any".

    If our client does not click the small white cross on the right to close this message, they are redirected to the…

  5. Allow Box Canvas to draw relational data diagram

    Allow for more arrow options so we can actually use Canvas to build data table relational diagram, so data table relationship can be illustrated for one-many, many-one, one-one and many-many types.

  6. Disable offline access for specific folder

    We would like to have a feature to disable Box Drive offline access for specific folders. Our users try to download the whole department folders and sensitive folders without realizing it. This is causing issues with disk space and compliance and there is no way to control this at the folder level, as Editor will have default access to download all files offline.

  7. Easily end collaboration on Hubs

    People should have a quick and easy way to remove a Hub from the Hubs gallery. Right now, you have to dive fairly deep into the share menu. It isn't intuitive for end-users.

  8. Option to send notifications when a change is made to a shared file

    Have an option to send notifications whenever a change is made to a shared file. I don't want this for every file all the time, but in certain situations this is very helpful - for example, when I'm asking people to add information to an Excel sheet.

  9. I want to set the file update interval to every 5 seconds.

    Box Drive accesses the BOX servers every second, so 10 million access logs are logged per month. To control this, we would like to be able to set the update time of files and folders.

  10. Ability to set metadata editing permissions

    Currently, metadata can be edited using anything other than the viewer or previewer.
    I would like to see a feature added that allows only administrator privileges to edit metadata, while other privileges can only view metadata (but cannot edit it).

    メタデータの編集権限を設定可とする機能の要望

    メタデータについて、現在はビューワー、プレビューアー以外であれば編集可能ですが、管理者権限でのみメタデータの編集を可能とし、その他の権限ではメタデータの表示のみ可能(編集不可)とするような機能の追加を要望します。

  11. Decode expired Box Links

    We have had users create Box Links to various files and folders and by default these links expire. If the employee who created the link leaves the company there is no easy way to decode the location path that the link is associated with. Box creates the links it should be able to decode and discern the location the link is referencing.

  12. Fix "missing" files bug in Box Drive

    Please fix the "missing" files bug with Box Drive which has been an issue for years. I'm honestly getting tired of having to tell my users to log out and log back in to clear app cache to fix the issue. It keeps happening after updates. I don't understand why this is so unreliable.

  13. Hubs: support of Multi Blocks copy

    In Box Hubs beta, only single Block (eg: file and folder) is able to be copied in a Hub site, but hope multi blocks are also to be done.

  14. Avoid accidental edits! Set local OS ReadOnly flag initially on ALL Box Drive files; When User Clears local RO, auto-Lock file for editing!

    Currently a user can very easily ACCIDENTALLY change a file locally in Box Drive without locking. This can be completely avoided by this:

    EVERY file in Box Drive should initially have local OS (e.g. Windows) "Read-only" attribute set. If and when the user explicitly Clears/Unsets the Windows Read-only attribute, e.g. in Windows Explorer (or chooses "Lock File For Editing in Box Drive" from context menu), Box Drive shall AUTOMATICALLY Lock it in Box, ideally only allowing local editing within Box Drive. There could be a pop up message like "File Locked for editing in Box Drive; be sure to Unlock…

  15. Georeferencing files and ability to see them on a map

    We work on a number of projects that have a physical address. Also we often have to take site pictures. It would be very useful if we could see the projects on a map so we can look for precedents in physical vicinity easier. Perhaps this can be enabled via metadata field where the template can be applied to a folder or a file. Postal address or coordinates would work for us.

  16. Reference a document (or load one) into a Box AI prompt within Hubs for comparison/analysis using Hub content.

    Many of the examples cited in the initial press release for Box AI imply that it can be used for comparison and analysis of documents. While this can currently be done in a limited way in Box AI for documents, comparison is only against the general information contained in the underlying LLM.
    Currently, you can paste a maxium of 1000 characters of text, minus the actual instructions in the prompt, for this type of analysis.
    It is a critical feature to be able to compare/analyze a document against the private information contained in a Box Hub, not just the general…

  17. Clarity on sources used to provide AI responses within Hubs

    From our testing, it appears that responses produced to Box AI prompts within Hubs use a combination of content from the Hub and general information from the LLM. The general content is sometimes contradictory to the actual content contained within the Hub, and often results in hallucinations.
    Users should be able to request that responses be limited to Hub content, or citations should be improved to indicate where Hub content was used in a response.

  18. Ability to disable channel folder changes by users (including team owners)

    Currently, users can change the location of their "Microsoft Teams Chat Files" folder and team owners can change the location of channels' folders.
    Due to security concerns, customers want to have the ability to disable folder changes for channels and chats.

  19. Increase Metadata query scale limits

    Increase the character, results, and other scale limits for metadata and metadata query search APIs. The documentation indicates additional volumes of data and is inconsistent. In order to provide solutions similar to legacy ECM, metadata query should be able to return additional results sets.

  20. back up

    Allow Box to automate back up to either a hard drive or 3rd party location automatically, give the recent concerns about CrowdStrike crash and how that stopped so many workdays, we want to protect ourselves if that were to ever happen in Box!
