  1. Customization of SSO login screen

    Further allow branding customization and controls on login screen. We do not use "network usernames" and as such it can be confusing for users.

    Thank you for this suggestion. I understand the use case. However, we do not plan to accommodate that level of customization at this time.

  2. Downloading Empty Folders

    We noticed and it's confirmed with Box Support that the Box service treats "empty folders" inconsistently depending on which Box mechanism is used.

    Empty folders are not created if we download folders via the Web interface. Empty folders are created via Box Sync. We are finding that this inconsistent behavior is creating confusion for our users and a mistrust in the Box service. Can you rectify the inconsistent behaviour?

    Thank you for this suggestion! This is a low priority because it’s a very narrow use case. Changing this functionality does not impact a large enough user base.

  3. Ability to customize email notification text

    Is it possible to customize the text of email notifications? Ideally we'd like to customize text for uploads to different folders.

    This is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We are happy to reconsider with additional feedback.

  5. Periodic replication of Sandbox environment with Production settings/folder structure

    As we become more complex with usage of Box, we maintain Sandbox environments and are using it to test Governance Policies, integrations, and more.

    Other SaaS providers (e.g., Workday) will push a replication of Configuration Settings (with an option for the customer to not replicate) from the Production to Sandbox environment. This helps keep the two in sync.

    It would also be enormously beneficial if the folder structure and dummy users (not content) could be replicated into the sandbox environment for a better sense of how changes will affect Production.

  7. Tags are copied along with the folder/file during a copy action in the Web App

    Currently when you copy a folder with a tag to another location in Box, the tag is not copied as well.

    This is a great idea! Unfortunately we aren’t able to prioritize this ask at this time due to other competing priorities.

  8. Moved to trash report

    We would like to run a report for a user and understand who deleted their content. Currently you will need to run this for the whole enterprise with the option moved to trash, and the results will only show who deleted the content and not who owns that content.

    The only work around at moment is to pivot table with files and folders report of the owner they are looking to run the report on.

  10. Collaboration Blacklisting

    We would benefit from the ability to make a blacklist of collaborations (perhaps via domain) to prevent against the inbound or outbound collaboration with a certain (or set) of domains.

    The current collaboration whitelist capabilities do not permit for blacklisting -- they only allow for whitelisting.

    For example: "Can we block all inbound and outbound requests to/from a certain domain (e.g., gmail.com)?"

  11. Hide/Turnoff Box Drive Error message

    With Box Drive, users are getting many error messages pertaining to incompatible file names. Users would like the ability to prevent continued notification since most of these files do not below to them. Possibly could be handled with a [Dont show again] or [Remove from alerts] check box

    You can disable notifications through OS controls for Box Drive. That being said, we are working on improving error handling in Drive to address the root problems and hopefully lead you to disabling notifications as they are an important part of our UX!

  12. Outlook: Add Ability to Save the Email Itself (the .msg file or a PDF of it), Not Just the Attachment

    There are use cases (given Box's retention capabilities) for users to save Outlook emails themselves (.msg files) to Box using Box for Office. The Box for Office integration currently only allows the user to 'Save Attachments to Box', which doesn't save the actual email itself.

    SPECIFIC REQUEST: Adjust the 'Save Attachments to Box' button/feature to include an option to save the email itself (as a PDF or the .msg file) to Box along with the attachment.

  13. Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box

    Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box

    We would like to request the following improvements to the “People with the link” option within Box’s Share Link feature, which is used to grant viewing or downloading access to folders or files for organisations or email addresses that do not have a Box account or existing folder permissions.

    At present, requiring the link creator to manually set a password is rather cumbersome, and as a result, many users choose not to do so. Since there is no enforcement mechanism, some organisations restrict or even prohibit the use…

  14. Notification(s) for Box Notes

    In the "Inbox" of Box Notes, any Note that gets updated by someone is conveniently displayed at the top. While this feature is helpful, it can also be bothersome because Notes that I no longer need to see keep appearing at the top of my screen every time someone opens them. Additionally, I’d like to be able to turn off unread notifications for Notes that aren’t relevant to me.

    It would be helpful to have a setting that allows users to turn update/unread notifications ON or OFF for each Note individually.

    Box Notesの「Inbox」で表示されるBox Notesは、誰かに更新されるたびに分かりやすく一番上に更新されたNoteが表示されます。この機能は便利ですが、もう見る必要がないNoteも誰かが開くたび、自分の画面のトップに表示され続けるため煩わしいです。また、未読通知も自分にとって必要ないものはOFFにしたいです。

    ユーザー自身でNoteごとに更新通知/未読通知をON/OFFできる設定があると便利です。

  15. Increase Multi-Document Querying Limitations from 10

    The current system limits the number of documents that can be reviewed in a single session, which has led some public sector users to process eligibility documents in multiple smaller batches. In practice, screenings often involve significantly more documents (70 in some cases) than the system currently supports in one batch (10 max), resulting in added workload and inefficiency.

  16. I want to be able to change access permissions when inviting someone to a Box folder via Teams

    As per the current Box specifications, when you invite someone to a Box folder via Teams, they will be granted editor permissions and cannot be changed in advance.
    After inviting via Teams, it is possible to change the access permissions on the Box side, but it is very inconvenient to have to change the access permissions every time.
    By making it possible to set access permissions in advance, unnecessary permissions will not be granted, reducing the risk of incidents occurring.

    件名:Teams経由でBoxフォルダへ招待する時、アクセス権限を変更できるようにしたい
    内容:
    現在のBoxの仕様として、Teams経由でBoxフォルダへ招待を行う場合、編集者として権限が付与され事前に変更する事はできません。
    Teams経由で招待後、Box側でアクセス権限の変更は可能ですが、都度アクセス権限の変更をする事とても不便です。
    事前に付与されるアクセス権限の設定が可能になる事により、必要のない権限を付与する事がなくなる為、インシデントが発生するリスクが減ります。

  17. Support for fetching and modifying co-admin permissions.

    Support for fetching and modifying co-admin permissions.
    Currently, Box allows users to retrieve a user’s role as an attribute via the /users/{user_id} endpoint. The possible role values are “user,” “admin,” and “coadmin.” While permissions for the “user” role can be accessed through this endpoint, the permissions and privileges associated with the “coadmin” role cannot be retrieved or modified through the API. This functionality is, however, accessible through the admin console user interface.

  19. We want to be able to see the origin folder of a file request link.

    By implementing features such as a button that allows users to navigate to the originating folder from the file request link, We would like to make it clear which folder the file request link was issued from.
