  1. Sharing permissions

    Currently, if an account does not have sharing privileges at the "upper level", it cannot be shared at the "lower level".
    Therefore, although the "higher hierarchy" holds more information, it is not possible to give them permission to share only part of it.
    For example, suppose that the "A folder" contains a "B team folder" and a "C team folder".
    The users are "B team account" and "C team account".
    At this time, in order for "B team's account to share B team's folder", sharing privileges for the higher "A folder" are required.
    However, with that setting, "Team B's account"…

  2. Dynamic notification feature in Relay

    In Relay notifications, it's currently only possible to include a pre-set static message. We'd like to have the ability to include dynamic settings that incorporate pre-trigger information such as the target file name.

  3. Ability to have users enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link without being logged in.

    In the case of a public shared link, there is no way to verify the user who manipulated the file if it was manipulated while the user was not logged in.
    However, we would like to verify by whom the shared file was downloaded.
    Since the file sharing partners are unspecified, we would like to share files via a shared link rather than through collaboration.
    Request the ability to track the operating user by having them enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link in an un-logged-in state.

    <共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際に名前やメールアドレスを入力できる機能>
    「リンクを知っている全員」に設定した共有リンクの場合、未ログイン状態で操作された場合はファイルを操作したユーザーを確認する手段がありません。
    しかし、共有したファイルが誰によってダウンロードされているか確認したいと考えています。
    ファイルの共有相手は不特定多数のため、コラボレーションではなく共有リンクでファイルを共有したいと考えています。
    共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際には名前やメールアドレスを入力させて、操作ユーザーを追える機能をリクエストします。

  4. Add toggling of comment and annotation creation

    Users want the ability to highlight text and copy-to-clipboard while in Preview mode.
    Currently, clicking and dragging results in entering comment-generation mode.
    The only workarounds:
    1. Enter editing mode (but this may not be possible with all roles, and may risk making unintended changes)
    2. View the document full-screen (this is not intuitive).

    Solution: add a one-click toggle, perhaps on the comment/annotation floating panel, that enables click-and-drag commenting OR disables it so highlight-and-copy can be used.

    This also could be implemented in such a way as to fulfill the following request

  5. Default search in "Sign" section

    Please update the default setting for the search bar in the 'Sign' section. Currently, it only searches within the list of documents sent for signature, even though we had a separate search bar for that purpose. The search function should be set to search across all areas.

  7. Box Drive performance improvement request when using VDI

    The VDI is experiencing operational delays when using Box Drive, and this is affecting our business.
    It was found that the delay was caused by a large number of disk I/Os.
    We checked the Box Drive logs and found that Box was reflecting 1,000 to 2,000 operation logs on Box to each user every morning.
    Since the above operations occur simultaneously for all users, there is a large load on the infrastructure.
    Please improve performance.

    「VDI利用時におけるBox Drive性能改善リクエスト」

    Box Drive利用時のVDIで操作遅延が発生しており業務影響が出ております。
    操作遅延の要因としては多数のディスクI/Oによって発生していることが判明しており、
    Box Driveのログを確認した所、Boxから毎朝1000~2000のBox上での操作ログを各ユーザーへ反映されていました。
    上記操作が全てのユーザで同時に発生する為、インフラストラクチャに大きな負荷が掛かっています。
    性能改善をお願いします。

  8. Quota Notifications for End Users

    I would like a way to set up different thresholds where a user can be notified that they are getting close to exceeding their quota limit. Give me the option to allow notifications at 95% and 99% and then every time they have hit their quota limit when they are someone else adds files to something that they own. I would also like to see warnings added for collaborators when they add files to another person's shares that indicate that they have hit a quota limit for the owner of the folder and give them a warning that they need…

  9. Business Tier Benefits for Single Users

    How about giving single-user members access to Business-level subscription benefits in their own additional tier? I am shocked that the Business-level is only available to companies with 3+ employees. I very much want the Business-level benefits of granting "view/upload-only access" to people I invite to collaborate, and the additional space would also be great. However, I will ALWAYS remain a single-member LLC. It's not right. I'm willing to pay more, but that is a LOT more when I'm still one person.

  11. Accept Box Sign Terms of Service Disclosure Once instead of every time

    Every document that we sign has us mark a check box for the Terms of Service Disclosure. It would save time if we could accept one time and it applies to every sign document thereafter.

  12. Open in Box Drive

    Ability to click a link that opens the current web box folder on the local Box Drive. This would allow for quick local file editing when you navigated to the folder via web Box.

  13. Add Timestamp to Files and Folder Tree Report

    The Files and Folder Tree report in the Admin Console only displays the date for content created/modified, etc. It'd be helpful to include the full timestamp in the date field.

  14. Customize System-Generated Email Notification Messages

    Box notification emails (such as the warning users receive when content will be deleted by retention policy) should be customizable to some degree. They should also include the ability to include a link users can click for more information.

  15. Automatic Data Move without an assigment

    We have created a relay and need a use case where a file, after being uploaded to a specific folder, is automatically moved to another folder. Currently, the relay is only possible when the starter confirms an assignment; we need this without an assignment. The file should be moved after a defined time.

    Details:

    Initial Inquiry: We asked if a relay could be set up to move files automatically after upload without requiring an assignment.
    Box Support Response: Suggested using “A Scheduled Event” as a trigger.
    Clarification: We clarified that the trigger must be the file upload, with the action…

  16. Separate Disposition Policy Management

    Customers would like the ability to manage automated content deletion separate from retention policies. This would allow content to be deleted sooner than the policy designates. Ability to extend the disposition date would be important (including through relay workflows where approvals could be gathered). Ability to designate the disposition timing from upload date (and not edit date for new versions of a file) is also desired.

  18. Improving "Folders and Files" Report Output

    Currently, when outputting the "Folders and Files" report, it is not possible to output folder-only information. Therefore, only folders need to be extracted from the output report. If file information is included, the number of records output will increase significantly. We would like to be able to output folder-only information. In doing so, it would be great if we could also specify the hierarchy of the folders. For example, up to the top 5 levels.

    現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートの出力時に、フォルダのみの情報を出力することができません。そのため、出力したレポートからフォルダのみを抽出する必要があります。ファイル情報が含まれると出力されるレコード数も大幅に増えてしまいます。フォルダのみの情報を出力できるようにしてほしいです。
    その際に、フォルダの階層も指定できると嬉しいです。例えば、上位5階層までなど。
