  1. If a user's email address is changed on the management console, please write the changed address.

    Currently, when a user's primary email address is changed on the admin console, it is reported as an "Edit User" item in the "User Activity Report." However,
    it is not possible to determine whether the "Edit user" item refers to a change in the primary email address just from the display on the report,
    so it is necessary to check the email address change notification date and time each time. Please add an item to the "User Activity Report" when you enter your email address on the management console,
    or I would like the functionality to be improved so that…

  3. (API) Add 'can_change_expiration' to the {file|folder}.permissions

    We are publishing a 3rd-party app for Box.
    A setting has been added to prevent users from changing the expiration date of shared links.
    When this setting is enabled, sending POST of JSON containing 'sharedlink.unsharedat' will return a 400 Bad Request error
    Please add a 'canchangeexpiration' value to the permissions attribute of the file/folder object so that the correct POST requests parameter can be specified.

  4. How can I set an opening date and time for files?

    I need to open files progressively for a class. There is an expiration setting but not an opening setting. It would be ideal to have both an opening and expiration date/time setting.

  6. Shortcut Function for Instant Bookmark Creation

    I suggest the implementation of a "Shortcut Function" for immediate bookmark creation when issuing a shared link. Here's how it would work:

    Procedure: Right-click on the file or folder intended for bookmarking.
    Functionality: A new bookmark (file) is instantly generated and stored in the same folder.
    Result: A shared link is automatically associated with the targeted file or folder, with default access permissions.

    The generated bookmark can be easily moved or duplicated to necessary folders, serving as a centralized shortcut for convenient access to the targeted file or folder.
    This addition would significantly enhance user efficiency and contribute to a…

  7. Enable online nonprofit members upgrade from techsoup.

    current problem: nonprofit pricing is not available without contacting billling . request from online support does not seem to happen unless I have business level membership. So, I need to call in to get support. phone number is not easily available online. Fortunately, I had this before when it took me over a week to get someone to give me access.
    Techsoup access should be setup to take me to the nonprofit pricing page so I can enable the membership level that I need.. (ie business plus)

  8. Add permission to grant user access to see (list) of folders and files but not preview any content within the files.

    This would provide awareness to the user that a file exists and they can then request preview (or other) access from the owner/co-owner.

  10. Allow to Update Description in the Upload Section in File Request via API

    We would like the ability to customize the description field in the Upload Section of the file request via API.
    Currently via API we are only able to update the Header and the Header Description and the
    description under the upload section is only editable via the webapp.

    We are looking to automate the file request via API from certain templates. Certain information will get updated depending on what template we desire which includes the need to update the description under the file upload but currently that is not available via API

  11. Ability to fix/default country code when requesting two-factor authentication

    When BoxSign requires two-factor authentication, there is a dropdown to select our country code.
    I would like a function to fix the country code to save the trouble of selecting from the pulldown each time.

  12. Restrict more special characters used in naming all uploads

    to have an account or folder level setting/configuration that will allow account admins to enforce MS windows file/folder naming restrictions for all uploads (This includes restriction that following characters aren't allowed: " \ / : | < > * ?. )

    We have a production issue where a partner is dropping folders in Box that do not meet Windows naming convention (they're using *) and that is causing a failure with download from Box.

  13. Displaying tags in grid view

    Tags are displayed in list view.
    It would be nice if it was also displayed in grid view.

  14. Changed conditions for sending invitation deadline notification emails for external users

    Currently, invitation deadline notification emails are sent to external users under the following conditions

    1. co-owner of the folder
    2. the user has been personally invited to the folder
    3. direct collaborators of the folder.

    Please change the specification so that notification emails can be received even if the user is invited as a group rather than as an individual under condition 2.

  15. Contact information options for outage notification

    During the recent outage, a notification was provided with the email address of our primary admin, which is a service account. This should instead default to our support contact information, as defined under Custom Setup. We currently have no option to change this behaviour.

  16. BOX Sign - Creating templates without attaching document

    We use BOX sign for approval of signatures in all types of documents. It would be a nice feature to be able to create a template for each approver without having to upload a document when creating the template. The only why I can accomplish this right now is to upload a blank document in the template. Then when I use the template I have to replace the blank document with whatever document that we need approval.

  17. Issue with File Viewing Recorded as Editing ファイル閲覧が編集として記録される問題

    I would like to request an improvement regarding the issue where simply viewing a file is recorded as editing. Viewing and editing are different activities and should be recorded and displayed separately.

    ファイルを閲覧しただけでも編集者として記録される現象について、改善を希望します。閲覧と編集は異なるアクティビティで、別々に記録・表示されるべきだと考えます。

  19. Request to improve behavior where updaters are visible only when operating from mobile

    Hi Box Teams,

    I would like to improve the following behavior.

    Problem behavior:
    If non-collaborators access the People with the link from Box's web app, they won't see who updated the file, but if they access it from Box's mobile app, they'll see who updated the file.

    This problem occurs when a folder's co-owner or owner updates a file. If the user has the permission of the editor or lower, the user who updated the file is displayed as "Anonymous".

    Expected Behavior:
    Since we have set the folder so that only the owner or co-owner can see the information, we…

  20. Allow groups to be specified as 'notified to' in Box Shield Threat Detection Rules

    Only user accounts can be specified for the 'Notification Destination' of the Threat Detection rules in Box Shield.
    Since maintenance is required when the person in charge changes, it should be possible to specify a group.

    ■In Japanese:
    Box shieldに存在する検出ルールの「通知の送信先」は、ユーザーアカウントのみが指定できます。
    担当者が変わったときメンテナンスが必要になるので、グループを指定できるようにしてください。
