  1. Box for Outlook - Default no attachments selected

    When using the Box Outlook app, by default all attachments are selected. I would default to no attachments and require people to select they want to save.

    The main reason is that for EVERY email there is normally MANY image files that make up part of the signature, it is necessary to unselected many more image files than the attachment(s) we want to save.

  2. Box for Outlook - Seamless login with SSO

    The Box app in Outlook is currently not a great user experience requiring users to login daily. It should pass existing SSO credentials across and login at least after the first set-up. Look at Asana as an example of how this should work

  4. Toggle for automatically opening documents in a new tab

    Either allowing Right Click on suggested search bar results or creating a toggle where clicking a document/picture/file/etc opens it in a new tab instead of on the current tab. I am SO tired of hitting the back arrow/duplicating pages when I need to open more than one document at a time

  5. Support IAL2/AAL2 Identity Providers as a Box Login

    Box should partner with identity providers like ID.me and Login.gov, allowing for enterprises to ensure a smooth and secure login process for managed users and external collaborators alike . Users should be able to use these credentials to access Box.

    This is especially important to reduce the risk of unverified external collaborators accessing sensitive enterprise content. Ideally, admins can enforce these IdP logins for external collaborators (similarly to how the current 2FA setting for external collaborators works). These two identity providers can require IAL2/AAL2 identity verification and authentication in accordance with NIST 800-63-3 standards.

  6. Add repeatable sections to forms

    Would be great to see repeatable sections in the forms.

    So for example you have a set of fields related to some entity, and the user can add multiple entries of this entity by hitting to add additional sections with the same fields in it.

  7. Option to default new Office files to web editor without disabling Box Edit

    Currently, when Box Edit is installed/enabled, newly created Word/Excel files in Box open automatically in the desktop app, interrupting workflows for users who prefer the web editor (like me at SMRU Consulting). Disabling Box Edit fixes this but removes desktop editing entirely, which isn't ideal.

    Requested Feature:

    Add a setting to default newly created Office files to open in Microsoft 365 for Web, while keeping Box Edit active for existing files or manual "Open in desktop" choices.

    Bonus: A prompt on creation ("Open in web / desktop?") for flexibility.

    Why It Matters:

    Streamlines workflows for web-first users without sacrificing Box…

  8. Image Crop in Box Canvas

    Enable image cropping in box canvas.

    Be really useful when creating mood boards to crop the images and screenshots in box canvas rather than doing this before uploading

  9. Move/Copy dialog search no longer shows parent folder path

    In the Move/Copy dialog, search results no longer display the parent folder or path context for folders with identical names.

    Previously, search results clearly showed both the folder name and its parent location. Now, only the folder name is shown, resulting in duplicate entries that are indistinguishable unless each one is opened.

  10. Document title previews

    Hi! After the latest platform update, Box doesn't show document title previews anymore when you hover over the document and it's very inconvenient - could we have this function back?

  11. Add a feature to enable batch descriptions to be added to multiple files on Box at once.

    Our organisation is using the file description feature to optimise search and give legacy context and crediting to files on Box.

    Descriptions must be added manually to files one at a time. we are uploading hundreds of files at a time, often all with the same description.

    A feature that allows multiple files to be selected and assigned the same description at once would be hugely efficient v the current process.

  12. Search sorting - have the possiblity to always list exact matches at the top

    The current Box search (especially when moving files) seems to prioritize folders that do not have the searched for string in their title but are seemingly selected based on recency or usage.

    Many of our teams move files based on a specific string in their title to a specific folder including said string.
    Since those folders are often not touched for a long period of time, the folders do sometimes not show up in search or only all the way down, with seemingly unrelated folders being displayed at the top instead.

  13. Increase the heading hierarchy in BoxNotes

    Increase the heading hierarchy in BoxNotes

    Currently, the heading hierarchy in BoxNotes can only be expanded up to levels 1 to 3.
    There are many cases where BoxNotes is created with more than three headings.
    It is inconvenient that the formatting cannot be consistent because the number of heading levels cannot be increased, and that the table of contents cannot reflect all headings.
    Please allow the table of contents to display headings of the 4th, 5th levels and beyond when viewed.

    BoxNotesの見出しの階層を増やす

    現在、BoxNotesの見出しの階層はレベル1から3までしか展開できません。
    BoxNotesが3つ以上の見出しで作成される場合が多くあります。
    見出しのレベル数を増やせず、書式が一貫しないことや、目次にすべての見出しが反映されないことは不便です。
    閲覧時に第4、第5レベル以降の見出しも目次に表示できるようにしてください。

  14. Forward and Backward Arrows

    I don't think its an Idea, but to move through files the > arrow buttons seem to be backwards. The Left < is to move Foward and the Right > is to move backwards. When I think it should be the other way around for those of us who are use to < to be backwards and > to be forward.

  15. Create Doc Gen templates from Excel.

  16. Match between Box AI for Hubs answers and reference information

    The reference information displayed in the responses of Box AI for Hubs is sometimes inaccurate, and the links between the response content and the reference information may differ.
    Since I went to the trouble of asking a question, if the link to the file is different, I have to search for the file within Hubs, so I want the accuracy improved so that the answer content and the reference link match.

    -in Japanese-
    Box AI for Hubsの回答で表示される参考情報の精度が低く、回答内容と参考情報のリンクが異なっていることがあります。せっかく質問したのにファイルへのリンクが異なっているとHubsの中からファイルを探さなくてはいけないので、回答内容と参考情報のリンクが合致するように精度をあげてほしい。

  17. We would like the number of contents per hub to be displayed in the Box Hubs management function

    When using Box AI for Hubs, the current limit for the number of pieces of content that can be placed in one Hub is 10,000.
    We would like to be able to check this upper limit in the Hubs list in the administration console.

    Box AI for Hubsを利用するにあたり、1つのHubに配置できるコンテンツ数は現在10,000が上限です。
    その上限値が管理コンソールのHubs一覧で確認できるようにしてほしいです。

  18. Share Box Forms with co-owners

    Can you enable the ability to share a Box Form with another user as a co-owner or editor?

    For example, if I create a Form, and then leave the company, a co-owner could still use it or make edits.

  19. Shift Click select for multiple files in Box App

    In an ordinary folder in Box, you are able to select one document using the 'cube' and hold shift on your keyboard and select another document down the list and it will auto select everything in-between.

    This functionality is not present in Box Apps. Adding this functionality would make it quicker and easier to edit metadata and download documents from a subset of an app view as well as unify behavior between Box Apps and the rest of the Box Web App.

  20. Regarding the file display when changing the BoxNotes URL from "note" to "file" BoxNotesのURLを"note"から"file"にした際のファイル表示について

    After sharing a Box Note, we want to set the shared URL to "file" instead of "note" to prevent editors from unintentionally modifying the content.
    However, the "file" view breaks the layout (the width becomes narrow), so currently, it cannot be used for sharing purposes.

    We request the ability to either select the display method after changing to "file" or to be able to expand it to full-width display.

    Our company uses Box Notes as a medium for sharing TIPS company-wide, but distributing the Box Note URL as "note" results in unintentional edits.
    Therefore, we request an improvement to the…
