  1. Movable preview screen toolbar

    When the preview screen is opened, a toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen showing the zoom factor and page number, but since it is fixed at the bottom of the page, the preview screen is partially hidden in some documents, making it difficult to see.
    If this toolbar could be temporarily hidden or moved, it would make the preview screen easier to see.

    プレビュー画面を開くと、画面下に拡大率やページ数が表示されているツールバーが表示されるかと思いますが、
    ページの下に固定されているため、ドキュメントによってはプレビュー画面が一部隠れてしまい、見づらいです。
    このツールバーを一時的に隠したり、移動できるようにすれば、
    プレビュー画面がより見やすくなると思うので、改善を希望します。

  2. Couldn't see full group name

    When collaborating, if the group name is long,
    the part that doesn't fit in the UI gets truncated.
    Is it possible to improve the UI so that the entire group name is displayed?
    This happens both when collaborating and when viewing the collaboration list.

    コラボレートの際にグループ名が長い場合、
    UI上に入りきらない部分が見切れてしまう問題がある。
    UIの改善でフルグループ名を表示できないか?
    コラボレートする時とコラボレート一覧を表示する際の両方で発生している。

  3. Collaborator Permission Levels: Editable, No Downloadable

    From a security standpoint, I would like the ability to edit in the desktop app but not download.
    Now, if you can edit it, you can also download it.


    セキュリティの観点から、 「デスクトップアプリでの編集は可能だが、ファイルのダウンロードは不可」という権限の提供をご検討いただきたく。
    現状、 編集が可能な場合は ダウンロードが可能な権限のみとなる認識です。

    ご検討いただけますと幸いです。

  5. Make the popup box on desktop go away

    I would love if there was a way to remove or click on this dialog box to make it go away. It is constantly in the way of work. I know box want me to "resolve" the issue but if they'd like me to do that they should provide more information on what exactly is the problem because when I try and fix it, it never works.

  6. Number of files in folder not correctly shown

    All the folders in the Box I'm using show "Size" as "0 Files", when in fact each folder contains several files. It would have been useful for this feature to work correctly. Instead, I'm manually opening each folder to check their contents. In the alternative, an option to click an arrow to go to the contents of the next folder in the file list would be helpful to save a click navigating back to the main page.

  8. Problem with workbook link in Excel

    we have a problem with some excel files with embedded workbook links pointing to a BOX folder.
    Today, after enabling BOX for Microsoft Office (desktop) some of these links changed from:

    C:\users\username\BOX\Boxdrivername\Boxfoldername

    To

    api.box.com\userName\BOX\Boxdrivername\Boxfoldername

    thus giving a file not found error when we reopen the "master" excel file.

    How can we solve this problem?

    Below is the procedure for reproducing the error.
    Starting Configuration:
    BOX drive installed: YES
    Enabled Box for Microsoft Office Coauthoring: NO
    In this example, the original file (test.xlsx) contains a link to a second file (linkedworkbook.xlsx) . As you can see the path is C:\users\svacchini\BOX\CIT.......

  9. support editing of Open Office .odt, ods, and .odp files in Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides

    I'm asking for Box not to block certain file compatibility functionality that is aIready within Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets, when not used through Box. I would like to edit Open Office Formats .odt , .odp, and .ods files, preferably from with Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets respectively. MS Word does not support Open Office formats, otherwise I would request that as well. Somehow, Box is blocking Google Sheets and Docs from opening their Open Office file formats (.ods, .odp and .odt). Normally, Google Docs can open .odt files, if Box is not "in the way". See attached images of…

  12. back up

    Allow Box to automate back up to either a hard drive or 3rd party location automatically, give the recent concerns about CrowdStrike crash and how that stopped so many workdays, we want to protect ourselves if that were to ever happen in Box!

  13. Ability to make Excel scripts available in "Box for Microsoft Office coauthoring"

    Currently, due to OneDrive for Business requirements, scripts are not available when coauthoring is enabled in Box.
     reference information:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/scripts/overview/excel#requirements:~:text=scripts%20from%20scratch.-,Requirements,Internet%20connectivity%20with%20connected%20experiences%20enabled.,-Note

    In business, Excel scripting is a frequently used function.
    "Box for Microsoft Office coauthoring" is enabled, and the ability to use Office scripts is desired even when Box is used as storage.

    <Box for Microsoft Office の共同編集でExcelのスクリプトを利用可能にする機能>

    現在、OneDrive for Businessの要件があるため、Boxで共同編集が有効になっているとスクリプトが利用できません。
     参考:https://learn.microsoft.com/ja-jp/office/dev/scripts/overview/excel#requirements

    業務上、Excelのスクリプトは頻繁に使用される機能です。
    Box for Microsoft Office の共同編集が有効になっており、Boxをストレージとして使用している場合でもOfficeスクリプトを使用できることが望まれます。

  15. Ability to access public links/folders that aren't shared with a specific account via the Box desktop application

    Sometimes a client sends a public link for a folder that is +100 GB. Downloading through the browser is obviously much slower than using the desktop application, but if the folder has not been shared directly with my account, I cannot access the folder via the app. Please implement a way of accessing public links via the Desktop application.

  19. Download Collaboration

    Uploading a file from a web browser
    I would like to have the ability to automatically download a file uploaded from a web browser on a different computer.
    This will greatly help in improving the efficiency of indirect collaboration with other software.

    1. upload a file (csv) from a browser (chrome) to Box on computer A. 2.
    2. PC "B" (Win11) has a software program installed on it, and the csv file is imported by the software.
    3. The PC in environment B is always connected to the Internet while it is running, so we would like the uploaded file to be automatically…
