  3. Content Insights reports cannot be output if there are restrictions on content creation.

    (Japanese follows English)
    There is a function to export Content Insights access statistics, but if you restrict content creation and prohibit the creation of first-level folders, you will not be able to export it.
    Currently, there are many cases in which system administrators are required to respond to requests, which places a heavy burden on both administrators and users, and hinders the use of content insights.
    Please enable output even in tenants that have restrictions on content creation, such as specifying the report output destination or outputting to a local file.


    コンテンツ作成の制限が入っているとコンテンツインサイトのレポートが出力出来ない

    コンテンツインサイトのアクセス統計情報をエクスポートという機能がありますが、コンテンツ作成の制限をして第一レベルのフォルダの作成を禁止している場合は出力ができません。
    現状だとシステム管理者に依頼を受けて対応するケースが多く、管理者、利用者とも負荷が大きく、コンテンツインサイトの活用の阻害となっています。
    レポートの出力先を指定する、ローカルにファイル出力するなどコンテンツ作成の制限が入っているテナントでも出力できるようにしてください。

  4. Folder color and icon customization

    Current UI, it is not easy to recognize which folder is important in visually.
    If we can customize folder color and icon by importance, it is going to be easy to discriminate between folders and it is improve security.

  5. Restrict assigning higher level permissions to external users

    we would like a control to restrict external users from having anything above a set permission level.

    It would also be great if we could review on one screen, external users to see what permission levels is assigned

  6. remove the character limit on invite messages. the message portion is vital my account and sending specific instructions on folder use

    remove the character limit on invite messages. the message portion is vital my account and we need to sending specific instructions on folder use and access. this is best when included with the link to the folder as sent by box. ALSO there is nowhere on the site or in the share section that even states there is now a character limit, instead it's just kicking back the invite and preventing it from being sent.

  8. Eliminate "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page for provisioned accounts

    We feel that showing "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page is not appropriate page for provisioned account's
    that are manually created in Admin Console or that are auto provisioned from AD.
    If Admin create new accounts with Silent mode, the confirmation email is not sent.
    Therefor user needs to create password on "Reset password" page manually. This is OK.
    After creating the password and try to login with the created password, "We’ve Sent You a Confirmation Email" page
    is displayed. But confirmation email is not sent. The user needs to click "Resend Confirmation Email" to receive "Please complete your…

  9. viewer uploader edit file name

    Would like to explore a custom permission level - between Viewer-Uploader and Editor, which would have all of the Viewer-Uploader rights, as well as the ability to "Edit File Name".

    The use case for this is the following - some users upload documents to a folder, but then need to be able to rename the documents. Renaming the documents before upload isn't an option due to specific workflow constraints. Giving Editor permission is not an option as there's been negative experiences with users accidentally moving or deleting customer folders.

    Thanks

  10. Locking Folder Names

    We have systems integrating with folders on Box.com. These functions either provide workflow timestamps, or move files from folder to folder. In order for these integrations to work seamlessly, folders cannot be accidentally or purposely renamed.

  11. I would like to see BoxWeb implement a function to sort files by extension.

    The current BoxWeb does not allow sorting by file extension.
    However, in some fields, a large number of photos and videos are often taken for measurement and development work, and many types of files are miscellaneously stored in a single folder.

    For example, when searching for image files (.png/.jpg/etc...) For example, if you are looking for image files (.png/.jpg/etc...), you can search for them by file name, but you may also want to check them by file extension.

    We currently use a method of dividing files into categories by file type, such as blocks of image files, blocks of video…

  12. Support Drag & Drop from Box Web App to Outlook

    Please enable the ability to drag and drop files FROM Box Web App TO Outlook email client (including the option to insert them as links OR to add them as normal attachments). Currently there is no native Drag and Drop functionality available between the Box Web App and Outlook. Therefore, the process to add file attachments/links to emails via the Web App or Outlook Plug-In is actually currently LESS efficient with BOX than without it. Since BOX Drive is not available for virtual clients (such as Terminal Server or Citrix), their only option is to use the Web App or…

    An external indicator exists today as part of the External Access Indicators release via the details sidebar of a folder.

  15. Apply classification labels with move/copy operations to folders as well.

    ■Apply classification labels with move/copy operations to folders as well.

    The current classification label assignment is checked against the events for the files in the Box.

    When there are multiple files that need to be moved/copied, it is time-consuming to specify each file individually, and the folders to move/copy to become cumbersome.
    Therefore, we would like to apply the current behavior to folders as well.

    ■移動/コピー操作を伴う分類ラベルの付与をフォルダにも適用する

    現在の分類ラベルの付与は、 Box 内のファイルに対するイベントに対してチェックがなされます。

    移動/コピー操作が必要なファイルが複数存在する場合、個別に指定して操作する手間が生じたり、
    移動/コピー先のフォルダが煩雑になってしまい業務効率の低下が生じます。
    そのため、現在の動作をフォルダにも適用することを希望します。

  16. Generate Shared Links as a Relay Outcome

    Would like the ability to automate generating shared links on files within Box Relay as an outcome. One use case for this would be to create a process for generating external shared links. Many security-conscience customers don't want everyone to have the ability to shared content externally without some sort of approval or oversight. If we added generating and sharing shared links as an outcome in Relay we could build approval flows that would allow users to get approval to share a file externally even if they don't have the access do so.

  17. Export menu of the Access Statistics for non-administrators

    【Request】
    I would like you to make the access statistics export menu available to non-administrative users.
    I think this can be achieved by allowing the user to select the destination folder after clicking the export menu.

    【Current status and issues】
    Currently, only co-administrators or administrators who have the authority to output reports can export access statistics.
    General users other than administrators can check the access statistics, but cannot export them to a file.

    The PR department has voiced the desire to export access statistics to a file.
    However, we do not want to give them co-administrator privileges because of the…

  18. Prevent the easy deletion of root level folders

    We accidentally deleted a root level folder for millions of folders.

    This may be done by locking the folder, where it could allow users to create/edit/delete the contents within the folder, but not allowing the locked folder itself to be rename/moved/deleted.

    This may also help Box Sync (and possibly Box Drive) users, as many Box Sync users often delete the top level folders by accident.

  19. Allow custom logo in Box notifications

    If we upload our logo in our custom branding (enterprise settings > custom set up) it will not show in email notifications sent from Box. Instead, it will show the standard Box logo and colors. White labelling notifications is important to mimic our portal and avoids unnecessary Platform development.

  20. Shared Folder Page: Add the Ability to Search

    The shared folder page does not currently have the ability to search, meaning users must manually navigate through (potentially) pages of folders to find the relevant file.

    REQUEST: Add the ability to perform searches when viewing a Shared Folder page as a non-collaborator.

    For example, if a customer is using open shared links as a way to host a 'Brand/PR Assets' library with subfolders for logos, imagery, etc., the users are unable to quickly locate the file they need amongst the subfolders. Search would help with this.

    This is a great suggestion, and I can definitely see the usefulness of such a feature. Based on current priorities, I don’t foresee us being able to implement this feature in the short-term.
