  1. Allow users to decide which context menu entires (right click menu) they want to see

    I've never once wanted to 'Create a Box Note' or 'Search in this folder' yet they will take up two context menu spaces unless I can figure out some way to turn them off in the registry. Allow users to select what context menus pop up please! Otherwise it's a big waste of space.

  2. Thumbnail & Quick View Support on Mac OS 12.4

    I'm not sure why this isn't a feature, but it definitely should be! My team views a lot of art files and the lack of thumbnail and quick view support is a huge wrench in our workflow.

  3. Shared Box Sign group status dashboard / Ability to share sign requests with team members

    When sending out Box Sign requests we need the ability for multiple team members to check in on how current Box Sign requests are progressing. They can't be tied to just the sender as sometimes staff work part-time and another staff member has to go in and push the signature along.

    It would be amazing to see Box Sign have access to groups for a group based dashboard e.g. Finance Team. That would enable everyone in the group to go in and track the current Sign requests and push them along when another team member isn't around to do so.

  5. share reports in a parent folder

    When you create a weekly scheduled report (User Activity report for example) and share it with a user (as a Viewer), this user sees too many folder named "User Activity run on xxxxxx".
    It is because it's the report subfolder that is shared with the user, and not the "Box reports" folder.

    Is it possible to store scheduled reports inside a parent folder (like "Box user reports") or a named one by the administrator creating the report ?

  6. Payment Pop-up window directly in Box Sign after contract is signed to pay for that contract

    Developing a similar payment pop-up window that Docusign has where once a customer signs a contract in Docusign they're then able to to pay for that contract as well directly in Box Sign. I think this could be very beneficial for our clients and make their transactional business much more seamless with their own clients.

  9. Wish to improve the custom terms in the classification settings to include the string custom term + string in the search.

    The following rules apply to custom terms in the classification settings:

    [Reference]
    Also, the characters surrounding any match must be of a different type (letters or digits) from the adjacent characters within the word. For example:

    if the policy looks for "Acme-Internal", the scan will match on "Acme Internal", "acme-internal", "Acme - Internal", "Acme (INTERNAL)", "Acme: Internal", "728Acme-Internal", "Acme - Internal728", "Acme-Internal-728", and so on, but not "Acme-Internalization", or "Acem-Internal".
    if the policy looks for "AcmeInternal", the scan will match on "acmeinternal", "AcmeINTERNAL", "AcmeInternal4u", and so on, but not "Acme Internal", "Acme_Internal", "AcmenInternalization", "Acme"

  10. Improvements to Content Insights export & report automation

    Hello,

    Currently, one of our primary uses of box.com is for shared link file preview and download reporting (in our case for required analytics for grant based reporting). The file level 'Content Insights' feature is very helpful for this. However, the current .csv export offered in the content insights feature is lacking some of the key data that is available in content insights detailed preview, specifically for us the location & IP address data presented.

    Additionally, scheduled automation of a content insights report would be very helpful. We have mostly created this feature by customizing the 'User Activity' admin report,…

  11. Ability to save Sort preference

    Hello! I'd like to be able to save a sort preference for all my folders for the team. So if I number the folders they always appear in name, ascending order. Instead each time you enter a folder you have to sort it.

  12. Folder and file reports are output in a tree format, making it easier to understand the folder hierarchy.

    The new platform version of the Folders and Files report is sorted by creation date by default.
    This does not fulfill the role of a folder tree report.
    If folders are not specified, sorting by all folder/file IDs, etc. into a tree format is impractical and affects business operations

    (Japanese)
    「フォルダ・ファイルレポートがツリー形式で出力されることによって、フォルダ階層が分かりやすくなる。」

    新プラットフォーム版のフォルダとファイルレポートはデフォルトで作成日順でソートされます。
    これではフォルダツリーレポートの役割を果たしていません。
    フォルダを指定しない場合、すべてのフォルダ・ファイルID等でツリー形式にソートするのは現実的ではなく業務に影響します。

  13. Alias files/ links to files

    Oftentimes, a file has more than just one "right place" within a folder structure.
    For example, if you have a folder for the HR-department and a folder for the legal-team, both teams need to access the subfolder "employment contracts".
    On local Windows Explorer or Apple Finder it is possible to create alias-files that link to the "main-file", so you can access a file from multiple locations.
    Such a feature is not available in Box. Since it is cruicial for files that needs to be accessed from different locations/ teams, I am asking you to implement this feature.

    Thank you!

    The problem is recognized only when the user manipulates the folder or file.

    【LFOでフォルダがロックされた際のメール通知】

  16. Ability to customize the subject line of emails sent automatically by Box Relay

    We can customize the message that appears in the body of the email when we create an approval task in Box Relay.
    However, for security reasons, we instruct our employees to delete emails they don't remember without opening them, so the current email subject line that is automatically sent by Box Relay is likely to be deleted.
    We would like to have the ability to customize the subject line as well as the message, so that recipients can grasp the content at a glance.

    Box Relayで自動送信されるメール件名をカスタマイズする機能

    Box Relayで承認タスクを作成する際、メールの本文に表示されるメッセージをカスタマイズすることができます。
    しかし、セキュリティ上、身に覚えのないメールは開かず削除するよう社員に指導しているため、現在のBox Relayで自動送信されるメール件名では、削除されてしまう可能性が高いです。
    受信者が一目で内容を把握できる件名にしたいため、メッセージだけではなく件名をカスタマイズできる機能を希望します。

  17. UX is slightly different than Box Notes

    Notes from left pane takes you to your notes inbox. Canvas creates a blank canvas in your default save. It would be a more congruent experience if the UX matched

    Ability to right click a folder/file and select "Open Link in a New Tab" … same exact UI as web browser experience.

    Today I can open an individual file in a new browser tab by pressing [Command + Click], but it is not intuitive.

  19. We would like the ability to track files pasted into Box Notes when I can no longer see them.

    【procedure】
    ・Paste the shared link in the box note.
    ・Click the "Insert a preview of this file?" button.
    ・At some point, the link preview that I was watching was displayed as "Sorry, you don't have permission to view this file."

    It is expected that other users have performed some operation and have become unable to browse.
    ①Linked content moved to another folder where it is not authorized.
    ②Linked content has been removed.
    ③The link itself is no longer valid.

    I am very troubled because there is no way to check the content status of the link destination.
    In these cases,…

  20. User Details Report: Add "Confirmation Column"

    If the User Details Report can have a Confirmation column, it allows Admins to know exactly who has completed signing up for Box and who needs to complete their sign up process.

    It can also let us know that if someone is experiencing issues confirming their email, then we can see if any others are having issues by seeing if they are confirmed or not.
