  1. Use an image in place of the folder icon for folders

    We would like to use an image in place of the folder icon for folders. We embed a couple of root folders on our website so that our distributors have access to resources. When they click into the root folder, they see a list of other folders. It would be good if these folders could be represented by a suitable image instead of the blue folder icon. Can this functionality be developed please?

  2. Comments in the preview and the word/docx file should be synchronized

    Right now, there are two layers of comments when reviewing a word/docx file. If comments are added in the preview, they are not visible when the file is opened in editing/review mode. Furthermore, if comments are marked as resolved in the online editor, the "resolved" status is not persistent if the file is downloaded, edited offline, and uploaded again as a new version.

  3. Be able to set a particular default search File Type such as "Folders"

    Be able to set a particular File Type such as "Folders" be the default file type in search rather than "Any Type." Would like to be able to select a file type as default.

  4. Provide easier ways to extend collaboration expiration

    Similar to the existing post below but the request is a bit different.
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/36108211-bulk-extend-collaboration-shared-link-expiration

    We have folders where there are over 100 collaborators to extend on a certain cadence and need to click the "clock" button over 100 times, which obviously is so painful. We would like to have the ability to click "checkbox" to select collaborators to extend and update them in one shot.

  5. Improvement request-About private channel messages in box for Microsoft Teams

    We become indebted to.
    When I try to add the box app in a private channel on box for Microsoft Teams, I get the message "Administrator configuration required".
    If you set it, the user will think that you can use it, so please take measures such as changing the message.

    お世話になっております。
    box for Microsoft Teamsでプライベートチャネルでboxアプリを追加しようとすると、「管理者による設定が必要です」と表示されメッセージが表示されます。
    設定すれば、利用できるとユーザーは思ってしまうため、メッセージの変更など対応をお願いします。

    よろしくお願いします。

  6. Stop or modify instant suspension of new user email addresses on account setup, or give admins access to your blocklist

    When a new user account is set up, a confirmation email is automatically sent to the login address for the account. Currently, if this message is bounced, the user's email address is immediately placed on your block list.

    So - I create a new staff email account in 365, then use that email address to set up a Box account. Box immediately sends a confirmation email message - but 365 is having a slow day and the gateway hasn't yet caught up with accepting messages for that address. The confirmation message is bounced, and the user's email address is immediately…

  7. Lock folder order in All Files

    Prologis would like to be able to create a static folder view in All Files. Defaulting to most recently viewed makes it difficult to find things. It would also be helpful if the file names were larger.

  8. Bulk add users approval task

    Prologis uses approval tasks on a monthly basis to approve a specific dataset - 20 people need to approve it each month. They would like to have the ability to search people more easily when creating a new approval task, or duplicate the group of approvers more easily. It would be helpful if it was easier to add approvers in bulk - right now, when adding users in bulk, if the first signer approves, they can approve on behalf of the entire group.

  9. Box Shield Delete Restriction Security Control

    Adding an additional Shield security control to restrict the ability of Editors to send content to Trash would be a great way to fill the gap between Viewer Uploader and Editor permissions. One of the primary use cases for Viewer Uploader is the ability to collaborate on content without being able to delete that content but in its current state, Viewer Uploaders are also restricted from other important collaborative features like inviting collaborators.

  11. Enterprise account (HIPAA compliance) for ONE

    Please make HIPAA compliance/BA agreement available for Business with only ONE employee. It's not affordable for me to continue to use box if I have to pay for Enterprise Account with a minimum of three users just to get this option.

  13. Allow chain marks on shared links to be hidden

    We would like to be able to hide the Create Shared Link button on the chainmark so that users do not accidentally create a shared link.
    ユーザーが誤って共有リンクを作成しないように、チェーンマークの共有リンク作成ボタンを非表示にできるようにしてほしい。

  14. Ability to save entered text as an image.

    Fix the bug of saving entered text as an image.

    Based from our Webapp specialist, Box Sign documents are always saved as PDF. The text content can be copied, but not the fields that are filled out since those are images, not text.

  15. Real time progress of a file upload via box upload api

    When a direct box upload api is invoked, there is no way to know the real time progress of upload. It would be good to get real time progress from box to notify users about the same on our UI.

  16. API searches for a given folder name and creates a folder if not found

    In today's world , there is an api that searches for folder and if folder not found returns 404. There is a create folder api which returns 409 error if folder name exists.
    This leads tomaking multiple calls to box first to identify or know folder existence and then another call for creating a folder if not found.

    There is a need for api which does following

    Search for a folder given the folder name(input =folder name)
    if folder exists with such a name
    return folderId
    if folder does not exists with such a folder name
    create a folder with…

  17. Ability to export "Direct Links" from box in reports

    We have the ability to export "Shared links" but would like the ability to also export "Directly Links" as well.

    We use box to host 6k plus folders and files. Inside those are some PNG files that , when direct links are on can open up directly to the PNG file instead of the traditional view with the box logo on the top left. This helps us post product in our website with a more professional full screen view that direct links provide.

  18. Ability to display and move the BoxDrive search window anywhere

    The BoxDrive search window will be displayed according to your taskbar display settings.

  19. Ability to search history

    We use history as a way to find files that we have seen in the past.
    However, the history does not have a search function, and only 50 files can be displayed per screen.
    Moreover, it is very inconvenient to go back and check the history because you have to click the next page many times.
    Please make history searchable.

    過去に見たことがあるファイルを見つける方法として履歴が存在しますが、
    履歴には検索機能がなく、1画面あたり50ファイルしか表示できません。
    その上、履歴をさかのぼって確認するときは何度も次のページをクリックする必要があり、非常に不便です。
    履歴を検索できるようにしてください。

  20. Change Back Bullet/Numbering/Checkbox on Box Notes

    I have tried reporting this as a bug, though I have been told it is an "expected behavior" - Users used to be able to change individual lines' bullet formatting - but now, if you change a line, it changes ALL LINES above and below to the selected formatting (bullet/numbering/checkbox). Even if you highlight a single line, all lines above and below get changed with it. Please change this back to how it was!
