Reminder of auto deletion?
With auto deletion, could you tick a box if you would like to be reminded of the deletion, confirming you are happy to delete? With an option to extend the deletion date?
We would find this beneficial, as we set our files at a year from when the project ended, however sometimes our projects go longer. A reminder would be helpful to triple check we are happy with deleting.
Thanks

Warning about creating folders with invalid characters
The web application does not currently warn users about creating folders with invalid characters. For example, if you create a folder name that ends in a period [.] via the web, that folder never comes down to the Box client on a Windows machine. This is a limitation of windows.
However, other cloud providers WARN users before creating the folder in the first place and some even prevent the creation of the folder (Egnyte for instance).
A warning of "The folder you are creating contains an invalid character that may not be visible to users on Windows machines" or something to that effect goes a GREAT WAY to smoothing over the transition from a competing cloud provider to Box.

Consistent TimeZone Reporting
Good morning,
I think it is important that all the reporting is consistent in the way it is generated. Right now there are three linked reports that are treated differently and make more difficult to compare them. Though the underlying purpose is different, it is clear that they are related and it would help a lot that they use the same exact time zone.These reports are:
- Platform Activity. Generated by using PST time zone.
- User Activity. Generated by using the report requester time zone.
- App Diagnostics. It allows to specify the time but it is based on UTC time zone.This inconsistency makes difficult to correlate the data.
Thanks

Box Relay's 'New Upload' trigger only fires with the first version of the file.
- Add "Box Script" to your drop down list of systems on this page.
- Modify Script's 'New Upload' Relay Trigger so it applies to updated copies of a file to that same folder. aka V2, V3, etc. Currenty 'New Upload' only fires on the first time a file with that name is uploaded.

Make scroll bar wider
When viewing a CSV file via Box's web portal/app, would love to see the tiny thin scroll bars made wider. (This form won't let me upload a screenshot of exactly what I'm referring to).

Include "Partial Success" file sizes in New Size category
In a Shuttle Transfer Report, items marked as "Partial Success" do not have their file sizes aggregated under the "New Size" category which indicates the total amount of data transferred during that migration job run. This can lead to a seemingly large discrepancy between the job Total Size and the amount of content which was successfully transferred.
Such "Partial Success" items ARE successfully uploaded to Box, but certain file details (e.g. original last modifier) may not have been successfully set in Box. The lack of this file metadata does not change the fact that the files themselves made it to Box. Their file size should therefore be included in the aggregated New Size category to better reflect the total amount of data which was successfully transferred to Box.

I want to get a list of information about Box specification changes and setting values.
I would like a function that allows me to see a list of information such as setting values when Box specifications or settings have been changed.
I understand that at this time there is no way to retrieve list information such as set values.
Therefore, when checking the difference between before and after the change, it is very inconvenient to obtain a capture or other means to check the difference.
Incorporating this functionality will also reduce the time required to prepare for verification.(日本語)
Boxの仕様変更や設定値に関する情報を一覧で取得したい。Boxの仕様変更や設定変更がされた場合、設定値等の情報が一覧で確認できるような機能がほしい。
現時点では設定値等の一覧情報を取得できる方法がない事を理解しております。
その為、変更前と変更後の違いを確認する時はキャプチャ等を取得して確認を行うので大変不便です。
本機能を取り入れる事で検証の準備にかかる時間も短縮されます。1 vote -
Updating versions from Box Drive seems to be critically broken
Saving over files in box drive used to update cloud with a version, it seems this is being ignored, and cannot be trusted when checking if this update is committed to the cloud. Things have gone seriously wrong with Box Drive integration every since macOS Ventura upgrade.

Box Relay: ability to save draft of workflows without setting all the required fields
When we create new workflows or edit existing workflows in Box Relay, we cannot save draft until we complete all the required fields. So we sometimes have to re-create workflows from the begging if we cannot fill in all the fields.
It would be more convenient if we can save draft without setting all the required fields, especially when we create new workflows.3 votes -

Ability to customize the email alerts that are sent for Box Shield Malware scan when detected. Would like the ability to customize the email alerts that are sent to end users when malware is detected on content uploaded.
Use Case: Customized messaging allows the customer to provide instructions or further details on what users need to do next when they receive the alert. Customer wants to notify end users on the internal process to ensure that the proper steps are taken.

Grant users with "Viewer Uploader" permissions, the ability to name subfolders they create.
If a user is granted "Viewer Uploader" has edit permissions and can create subfolders inside of a folder they have permission, why don't the have the permissions to name that subfolder?
I would like to see permissions changed to allow subfolder created by someone with "Viewer Uploader" permissions to be able to at least name the folder that person just created.

Make new files/folder immediately searchable. Remove latency.
Make new files/folder immediately searchable. There is massive latency for new files/folders being searchable, which creates a very confusing and unpleasant end user experience.
When a new file/folder is created, it is not immediately searchable. Please fix this.

Allow BoxDrive search to be limited to files and folders names
The current BoxDrive search will search the contents of the file as well.
We would like to be able to narrow down the search target when searching, because sometimes it is enough to search only the file name or folder name.
(In Japanese)
現在のBoxDriveの検索はファイルの中身まで検索対象となっています。
ファイル名やフォルダ名だけ検索で十分な場合があるため、検索時に検索対象を絞れるようにしてほしいです。4 votes
