  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. Generate csv for the users with permission

    let's say you have a subfolder with multiple users with the same permission, and want to create another subfolder for the similar purpose for the same users. Wouldn't it be great if you can generate a user list as csv or any other format, so you can easily copy and paste the users to invite? I know an admin can create a group but dont you think a regular user should be able to do the similar thing too?

  4. [File Request] cascade feature to allow granular uploading of files to a folder structure / subfolders.

    [File Request] feature to allow uploading files to a folder structure / subfolders. The "Submit Files" page does not provide any context regarding the linked folder name without having to manually input this, and doesn't provide subfolders to allow the user to drill down and upload files into the subfolder of which they choose (with breadcrumbs of course to navigate back to the root folder share via the File Request URL. Currently users have to create a File Request per folder or invite users in to the parent folder as a "Previewer Uploader" in order to upload.

    Alternatively, I'd just…

  5. Better alignment options for multiple Box Sign fields

    We could use better alignment tools for aligning multiple fields in Box Sign. We would like to be able multiple fields and have an option to align them all together to the left, right or center.

    For example, if we have a document requiring 5 signatures, we would like to be able to select all 5 of those signatures fields and have them all aligned to the left so they are exactly one underneath each other.

    Currently, we can drag each field and use the dotted line alignment guides to get close to aligning correctly with the field above it,…

  7. When an app is disabled for use, the client ID should be displayed on error page

    When an app has been disabled, the error page displayed should surface the client ID in a manner that end users are familiar with instead of having to copy the URL and provide the ID from there. This is particularly useful because
    1) the name of the app is missing from the error page
    2) when it is a custom app that has been disabled it is removed entirely from the GUI which makes it difficult to track down.

  8. Restrict Apps (such as Box Sync) to a Group

    With the impending deprecation of Box Sync I was looking to see about removing the Box Sync app from the Box App Store. I only see an option to disable Sync which would remove the apps, but also cause any installed Box Sync clients to start throwing errors since the service had been disabled.

    I was told by support that I could turn Sync off for specific users, but we have way too many to make the adjustments on. While we don't use groups now, if there was a way to make apps available or unavailable at the group or…

  9. ipad app zip download

    Running the Box app on the iPad, I can't find a way to download a set of files or an entire folder as a ZIP to any app or the Files app. This works great on Android, and even Google Drive handles it.

  10. App sign in to specific folder

    I use an iPad app to manage PDFs of sheet music. I can sign into Box from the app, but I don't want to grant access to my ENTIRE BOX FOLDER TREE. I want to limit the app to read-only access to a specific folder and its descendants. Is there a way to do this? Can I set up a pseudo-login that accesses just a portion of my tree?

  11. Admin aggregate account-wide trash folder

    It would be helpful to have access to an aggregate Trash folder for the entire account such that finding recently deleted items is as easy as browsing to that folder and sorting by date deleted.

  13. Restrict users to only some Shield label

    Currently you can choose which users can put Shield label to contents.
    However, this setting is for the whole tenant but I would like to set different types of users to some Shield label that does not apply to all the Shield labels.

  14. When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.

    When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.

    For Example, a file created in Excel with the print settings set to A4 becomes 2page PDF files when uploaded to BoxSign.
    This can be avoided by converting the files to PDF before uploading them to BoxSign, but if all the files are converted and then uploaded, the man-hours and number of files increases, which raises concerns about operational efficiency and data management, so we would like to see improvements.

    ExcelをBoxSignにアップロードした際Excelの印刷設定通りにPDFになるようにして欲しい

    例えば、Excelで印刷設定をA4にあわせて作成したファイルがBoxSignにアップロードした際に2ページのPDFになります。
    BoxSignへアップロードする前にPDFに変換を行えば回避できますが、全て変換を行ってアップロードを行うと工数とファイル数が増えて、
    業務効率やデータ管理上の懸念点があるため改善を希望します。

  16. 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…

  18. 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…

  19. Customize Banner notifications in Box web UI

    All our users (not just Admin accounts) have been getting more banner notifications regarding new features being rolled out and/or Box events that will be occurring.

    We'd like to have the capability to control and suppress banner notifications on the Box web UI.

    Features announcements and/or Box events being broadcasted via these banners are not applicable to our users as how they are communicated. It is setting incorrect expectations and miscommunicating what features and functionality we are supporting as an enterprise within Box.

  20. Box Relay's 'New Upload' trigger only fires with the first version of the file.

    1. Add "Box Script" to your drop down list of systems on this page.
    2. 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.
