  1. Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages.

    Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages. Customers often want to just use box extract to load documents and skip the indexing. These documents can be large, 100 pages, 500 pages, etc, but the indexing information may be only on the first 3 pages that is required. This request is to incorporate a way to limit how many pages box extract runs against per folder, or per metadata set, per Extract Agent. The key is when I upload a 1000 page document, I don't want that to eat up 1000 AI…

  2. Native report for Shield Monitoring Mode

  3. Date conditional formatting in Box Apps

    As a user, I'd like to define conditional formatting for date columns in a Box App so that I can clearly see documents with approaching deadlines and those that are overdue

  4. Log in as “AutomationUser” from the new UI Content Manager

    Content: Currently, it is possible to log in as a proxy via the Content Manager of the old UI, but it is not possible to log in as a proxy on the new UI.
    If the user is a managed user, you can log in as a proxy from the "Users and Groups" screen, but since AutomationUser is not displayed on the "Users and Groups" screen, you will need to log in as a proxy from Content Manager.
    Since not being able to log in as an AutomationUser has a large impact on our business, we would like this functionality…

  5. Box Drive: Safe Column Width Fixation

    The default column width is too narrow when viewing in Box Drive, and it is not possible to apply column width locking. I would like to request an improvement to this feature.

  7. We want to make it easier to change the owner of a workflow in Box Relay.

    In Japan, organizational changes and personnel transfers occur frequently, which necessitates changing the owner of workflows in Box Relay.
    Currently, to change the owner, users have to transfer the workflow to another user and disable the original workflow.

    This process is not intuitive and is cumbersome for users. Additionally, there are too many steps involved. As a result, even though Relay is a good feature, it feels difficult to use and does not gain user adoption.

    We would like to see improvements that allow for a one-click transfer of ownership.
    For example, adding an option to change the owner in…

  8. Suggested Prompts with Custom Agent in the Box App for iOS and Android

    Currently the AI feature of the Box App for iOS and Android does not include customized suggested prompts with custom agents. I would like to have suggested prompts available on custom agents in the Box App. We've created several custom agents with unique suggested prompts. Without access to these prompts in the Box App, it limits its usefulness to us, or at least requires more effort from the end-user to retrieve what they need.

  9. Notify Owners and Co-Owner on colaborators expiry

    It seems that today only the colaborators are infomed prior to colaborator expiry. From my poinbt of view it would be important, that both Owners and Co-Owners receive the expiry information too. I our setup Box system users own all level 0 shared folders, so Co-Owners would be required to receive the notifications as well.

  10. We want the Box administrator to be able to confirm when an IP address is blocked from communicating.

    Box has a function to increase security by restricting the IP addresses accessing the system. When using this function, it is necessary to register the addresses to be used in the permission list when there is a system that wants to cooperate with Box.

    However, there are cases where it is not possible to confirm the IP addresses used with each system vendor.

    Therefore, currently, we block communication once and ask Box to confirm the information by contacting the company.

    This operation requires support from Box and is inconvenient for us because it takes time to add the IP address…

  11. Taxonomy Lists in Box Forms

    We create many Box Forms with the same dropdown lists. In our case one is the list of the properties we own/manage.

    Having the ability to duplicate forms would be very helpful, but for us it would be even more helpful to create a Taxonomy list for forms so that it would be easy to add the dropdown to a form. It would also allow the dropdowns to be consistent, accurate and easy to change on all forms at once.

    Thank you.

  12. Change the Box Tools implementation to Native Messaging Hosts

    Due to changes in Chromium’s security policy, communication with localhost is no longer trusted.
    At present, the only secure way to enable communication between the web and a local environment is through Native Messaging Hosts.

    Using Native Messaging Hosts also eliminates the need for a constantly running background process, which helps reduce potential issues and improves stability.
    For example, Dropbox adopted this approach several years ago.

    We strongly recommend that Box also migrate Box Tools to Native Messaging Hosts.

    When deleting a file on the server, I would like to be able to see the status until the deletion is complete.
    Also, when restoring a file from the Recycle Bin, I would like to be able to see the status until the restoration is complete. (ex. progress bar,,,)

  14. When viewed in Safari on an iPhone, the menu overlaps with the file name.

    When viewed in Safari on an iPhone in portrait mode, the menu overlaps with the file name. In landscape mode, it is displayed correctly.
    I’m sorry if this has already been mentioned. I can’t read English well, and this text is translated, so the wording may not be accurate.

  16. Box falsely claims a file is being edited

    I need to rename a file. Box doesn't allow me to. Instead, it falsely claims the file is being edited. I have no open tabs anywhere where I am editing that file. Also, I know with certainty no one else is editing it right now.

    The "idea" I have is: Box should behave and let me rename files. Gosh, some other vendors allow you to rename files while you're editing them. Unheard-of, I know. But a feature. Elsewhere.

  17. Request for Dynamic Session Timeout Control Based on SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter

    We would like Box to reference the SessionNotOnOrAfter value in the SAML response and allow the session timeout to be set shorter than the tenant’s default value (and, if possible, longer as well).

    Our intention is to have the IdP determine the security level based on factors such as device type and user type, and then shorten the session only when the risk is high, while allowing longer sessions when the risk is low, thereby enabling risk-based session management.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter によるセッションタイムアウト動的制御の要望

    <本文>
    SAMLレスポンス内の SessionNotOnOrAfter を参照し、Boxのセッションタイムアウトをテナントデフォルト値より短く(可能であれば長くも)設定できるようにしていただきたいです。
    IdP側でデバイス種別・ユーザー種別などから安全性を判定し、安全性が低い場合のみセッションを短く、高い場合は長くすることで、リスクベースのセッション管理を実現したい意図があります。

  19. Report on Auto‑Confirmation Issue During Japanese Input When Using Bulleted Lists (BoxCanvas)

    I am using BoxCanvas and would like to report an issue related to text input.
    After starting a bulleted or numbered list, if I type double‑byte characters and the IME enters the pre‑conversion state, the text is automatically confirmed and I cannot input it correctly(At that time, I was using Japanese input). This behavior has already been resolved in BoxNotes.

    The pace of improvements to BoxCanvas, BoxNotes, and other features has been remarkable. I appreciate the Box team’s continuous efforts and look forward to future enhancements.

  20. Add preset date ranges such as “Previous Month” when scheduling report generation

    When scheduling report generation, it would be very helpful to have an option to select “Previous Month” (from the 1st to the last day of the previous month) as a preset date range.
    It would also be useful to have additional preset options such as “Previous Year,” “Specific Month,” or “Specific Year” to easily configure commonly used reporting periods.
