  1. Viewer-Uploader Copy Experience

    As part of our workflows, we copy template forms into other folders. Our users are not all comfortable using keyboard shortcuts to copy the forms so everyone needs to be an editor in order to use the UI to copy and paste.

    We would like to see the UI for copy introduced for viewer-uploaders.

  2. thumbnail of the photo on a map.

    When a photo's EXIF ​​data contains location information, it is useful to have a function that allows you to display a thumbnail of the photo on a map.

  3. importhtml & importxml to be supported on Google Sheets integration in Box

    Some formulae such as importhtml & importxml are not supported in Box Google Sheets integration.
    I strongly hope the functions on Google Sheets will be fully compatible with Box.

  4. Folder differentiation on Web App

    While Box does show a different folder if a folder is shared (blue with people silhouette) you are unable to tell which is shared BY you and which is shared TO you. I recommend changing the folder color to the default color, but adding the people silhouette when YOU share folders, then the blue one with the silhouette can be used for folders shared TO you.

  5. Provide a mechanism to indicate which BOX space you are in - potentially by account owner

    It has become clear that personnel often are invited to multiple Box spaces. This can cause confusion due to folder naming that doesn't indicate what Box account that folder is associated with.

    It would be beneficial if there was some method to indicate which Box account you are posting information in. This could be done with some type of context switching in the web app, or some listed account name with the folder.

    We have found that often times, some personnel with 'free' Box Lite accounts will post information in their 'free' account instead of dropping them in the Box…

  6. Customize shared link theme and logo

    As the File request link can be customized (text, colors, logo...), it would be great to customize a shared link too.
    We have many companies inside our enterprise, so each company would be able to set its logo for their shared links (and not the default one of the enterprise).

  7. About scaling operations using the mouse wheel

    When displaying the preview screen in a web browser, using the mouse wheel will scale the entire screen along with the thumbnails and sidebar, but I would like to be able to scale only the content part.

  8. Folder tree order up side down when move/copy

    In folder view on Web Application, upper folder tree view is shown when working with deep folders.(left corner)
    The display order of this tree view and the tree view displayed when you "move/copy" a file are up side down.
    (where[...]mouse hober over)
    (Folder hierarchy ascending/descending order)
    So, when moving files, there is a possibility of causing a mistake in the destination.

    Normal folder view: 1st>2nd>3rd>4th>5th

    View on Move/Copy: 5th>4th>3rd>2nd>1st

    It's happy to be if it is a same display order.

    Most of users remain on Box Drive/explorer, for a transformation, we would like to recommend Box web application for users.…

  9. sign in via phone

    Seems more and more sites now are going away from having users sign-in via an email and allowing them to sign-in via their phone number. User enters phone number and generally authorization code sent and entered before allowed into site. Not sure if there are regulations to have users sign-in particular way based on the information that could be stored, but just an idea to potentially allow login by phone number in addition to email and password.

  10. Add Setting to open documents in a new tab by default

    Clicking on a document opens the document in that tab, which means I now have to go back to view the document list again. opening a document should open in a new tab by default (trivial html edit) which should also be configurable at the user profile level.

  11. Please add a customizable setting for the [administrator email address] section.

    If a user tries to use an application that is not allowed by the tenant, the following error screen will appear.


    Disabled by Administrator
    This application cannot be used because it is not allowed by your Box administrator.
    If you have questions, please contact your administrator at [administrator email address].


    Typically, he/she is expected to contact the email address provided on this screen.
    However, due to company operations, we do not accept inquiries at the email address listed on this screen.
    This creates confusion because he/she sends an email and does not receive a response from the administrator.

    Therefore, we…

  12. Be transparent on the maximum number of characters for sharing messages

    As a power user trying to share a folder using a long message,
    I want my message to raise an error message before I hit share
    So I do not lose all its content and have to retype it again

  13. Copy experience

    When copying a file using a web app, if a file with the same name exists at the copy destination, (1) will be added to the file name.
    I would like it to be overwritten and updated in the same way as when uploading a file with the same name.
    Since there is a file with the same name, it would be better if there is a confirmation message asking if you want to overwrite it.

  14. The ability to control deletion and restoration from the Recycle Bin.

    I would like to see the ability to control the deletion and restoration of items from the Recycle Bin by user/group in the Enterprise Settings for Content and Sharing.
    Currently, when a free user is added to a tenant, the user added can delete and restore items that they own.
    If this feature is added, we would be able to control the deletion and restoration of items by the user in question on a per-user basis.

    Enterprise設定のコンテンツと共有に、ユーザー/グループ指定でごみ箱からの削除、復元が制御できる機能を追加してほしいです。
    現在、フリーユーザーをテナントに追加した時に該当ユーザーは自身が所有しているアイテムを削除、復元できてしまいます。
    この機能が追加された場合、該当ユーザーによるアイテムの削除、復元をユーザー単位でコントロール出来ます。

  15. The ability to prohibit folder operations by users with editor privileges

    From a folder management perspective, we do not want end users to be able to create new folders, delete folders, or rename folders at all in all hierarchies, with the goal of preventing end user misoperation with folders.
    Currently, all folders are created by the administrator, but since end users can also create, rename, and delete folders, we are concerned that in the future, as Box is used, there will be more folders that the administrator cannot detect, which will confuse all end users. We would like to prohibit all of them.

    However, we want to allow end users to…

  17. default file request webpage for child folders

    We would like to create a default File Request Webpage Template that automatically applies to every folder we create under the parent folder rather than having to Copy the File Request Webpage.

    We expect the root parent "Request File Webpage" to be the default for all child folders created new under the parent folder...

    We want the exact same layout and fields on every "Request File Webpage" for every child folder under the parent.
    Not the link, but the Webpage layout and fields.

    We are hoping, at minimum, we can setup a Default or Template that can be applied every…

  18. File Request list

    I would like to see the list of the folders that have File Request enabled so that I can check which folder is already enabled and can easily disable from that list.
    There is a feature in admin console but would like to have the end users be able to do see it for their collaborated folders.

  19. Please separate the colors of the icons displayed in folders and files.

    Due to the release of Box Shield's new classification indicators, the colors of the "lock icon" and "shared link icon" displayed on folders and files are all grayed out.
    In the past, the "lock icon" was red, and the "shared link icon" was blue, etc., making it easy for users to see and use.

    We believe this is a far cry from Box's goal of accessibility, which is "ease of use for all users."
    In order to provide an easy-to-use environment for all users, please restore the icon colors to the previous specifications or color code them.

  20. Open link accessible only by those who hold a Box account

    I want to share sensitive content with people outside my organization for a limited time (e.g., 3 days).

    Problems:

    • Using an open link does not allow restricting access to specific individuals. Also, if the person does not have a Box account, it is not possible to record an access log.
    • Using collaborators does not allow for automatically removing certain collaborators after a set period.

    Please provide a solution.

    機密コンテンツを期間限定(例:3日間)で社外に見せたい(共有したい)。

    問題
    - オープンリンクを使用すると、特定の個人へのアクセスを制限できません。
    また、Box アカウントを持たない個人の場合は、アクセスログを記録することができません。
    - コラボレーターを使用しても、一定期間後に特定のコラボレーターを自動的に削除することはできません。

    解決策を提供してください。
