User groups belong to the production, and production-ready applications are not supported.
Therefore, we cannot invite groups to folders in production.

Metadata is set up in folders in our production via API by AppUser in the developer sandbox.
However, metadata templates belong to the production, and production-ready applications are not supported.
Therefore, we can set item values for the configured metadata instances, but we cannot create metadata instances.

Two Recommendations;
1) When a file or folder has metadata applied, having a ICON on record (similar to a shared link or description) be visible.. Currently you don't know UNLESS you select the item and do to details to see if template has been applied.

2) When metadata is applied, showing the metadata values when you select the record similar go to Details would be be great.
When using Metadata the file or folder where the metadata is applied should clearly show (like a shared link or description) that met

For the metadata templates, our team has large lists of projects, clients, names, etc that would be best uploaded for potential Option fields in various metadata templates. This would help upon setup and updating of templates.

As an internal user, I want to create a file request template that has multiple file upload zones where each file upload zone has unique metadata associated with the upload zone.

This enhancement would significantly improve the customer experience by utilizing a single URL instead of multiple. This enhancement would also streamline internal processes for staff by eliminating the need for staff to manually sort uploaded files.

In the current state, we are forced to create 3 separate file requests so that we can achieve the desired internal efficiencies.

Request to make applying of templates for files and folders consistent. Provide same menu item for file and folder when applying a template. Allow application of template on a file without previewing the file just like in folder.

We would like the ability to save the default view for STL files to save the orientation, render mode, and camera projection within the web preview

We used to be able to save the default view for STL files within a Box3d Metadata of the file. We no longer have that ability.

Currently, external collaborators in folders cannot apply metadata templates that originate in the folder owner's EID.

REQUEST: Allow external collaborators to take advantage of applying Metadata Templates to folders based on the owner of the folder.

Restrict the ability to modify metadata values to a privileged user (likely co-admin)

We want to expose a sub-set of metadata based on the initial choice of attribute. For example, if you were to pick the attribute "size" it might then offer you a subselection of size variants.

We need a way to make selected attributes required custom templates, so that when the templates are applied to Folders/Files the user can not save the metadata form bypassing the required metadata.

I need Box to read the EXIF data in the photos I upload. Having access to that would make categorizing and finding assets infinitely easier. If I could sort by the metadata already included with an image file I would be able to find by date, location, resolution, etc automatically. A default metadata template should be created that matches that of EXIF data so that it automatically loads. You could then find the images you want by searching the EXIF data then could apply other metadata to add more relevance.

I enabled Cascading Metadata, but can only use existing Metadata Templates. When I try to use custom Metadata that is not an existing template, I get error: "Cascade policy cannot be applied to custom metadata at this time."

In order to overwrite a file, if you download it and then upload it again, metadata and other information that is set only for the file will be lost.
Please make it possible to overwrite files with metadata and other information only on Box, without downloading.
Or, please add the ability to copy metadata only.

This would allow for more seamless sharing of data handled by different companies and departments.

ファイルの上書きするために、ダウンロードした後再度アップロードするとメタデータなどのファイルにしか設定されていない情報が消えてしまいます。
ダウンロードしなくとも、Box上だけでメタデータ等の情報を含めてファイルを上書きできるようにしてください。
もしくは、メタデータのみコピーできる機能を追加してください。

これにより、企業や部署毎に扱うデータをよりシームレスに共有することができます。

Metadata: enable functionality where users must provide a reason (e.g. a comment) for changing a metadata value on highly protected content.

Possibly, we offer the option to configure Box Shield Classification Tags for this. E.g. The tag could say "metadata changes require justification."
