  1. Ability to communicate with non-folder collaborators on Box Relay / File request links

    We are using box Relay and the File Request link as a document review intake, and our main goal is to get away from sending files and questions back and forth via emails. Currently, when someone drops a file to the link, in order for us to communicate with the requestor via the request (using the comments section) the names only populate (using @) when they are added to the folder as collaborators. Can box make it that we can add a communication feature to anyone with the link? or at least, to whoever dropped the file on the link?

  2. Additional Relay Approval options beyond Go to Outcome 1 and End the flow

    When using an approval task and sending a notification you are given two options, End the flow and Go to outcome 1. I'd like to be able to advise it to go to Outcome 2 or Outcome 3 of the workflow so things are more flexible in more complex workflows.

  3. cascading auto-start workflows

    cascading auto-start workflows. We have a specific use case defined that would greatly benefit from this capability - shield classification being applied automatically alerts the uploader of the file that the content needs to be moved. This would be a big win for USAA

  6. Add more detailed information to Relay workflow tracking

    When viewing the tracking for an individual document progressing through a workflow, the task completion status is not granular enough to tell if any or no assignees have completed a task. For example: if there were four people required to approve a step, and three had approved, but the last person hadn't, this level of detail is only visible from the activity pane on the document, not from the tracking in Relay.

  7. Relay Workflow period Allocations based on work days rather than natural days (i.e Exclude Weekends)

    When assigning a task in relay you can assign the period in days associated to the task. at This point in time this does not allow the option to assign such days to working days but only natural days. Therefore if and when a weekend occurs during the timeline of the workflow action weekend days (non-working days absorbs the task timeline. the request is that there must be an option to assign a task only for working days (excluding weekends)

  8. cursor does not move to search box

  9. Add more functionality to the 'submitter authentication' option for file requests.

    <Background>
    A new security option has been added to file requests.
    This is a feature that forces the user to login to the Box when we upload from a file request.

     Link:https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360056763373

    <Request>
    Add a "Require Two-Factor Authentication" option to this feature.
    We believe this is a necessary feature to make security more robust.

    ■ファイルリクエストの「送信者の認証」オプションに機能の追加

    <背景>
    ファイルリクエストに新しいセキュリティオプションが追加されました。
    これは、ファイルリクエストからアップロードする際に、ユーザーにBoxへのログインを強制する機能です。

     リンク:https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/360056763373

    <ご要望>
    この機能に「二要素認証を必要とする」オプションを追加してください。
    これは、セキュリティをより強固なものにするために必要な機能だと考えています。

  10. File Request Timestamp

    File request duplicate timestamps:

    When we upload files with same file name via the file request link, time stamp will be automatically added to end of the file name in UTC+0000.

    We would like a way to select the timezone used to add the timestamp (maybe the timezone abbreviation can be specified at the end of the file name timestamp for when other collaborators view it)

  11. File request: add the ability to pre-populate fields

    It would be great if there would be a way to pre-populate the fields of a file request with "known-information" if available.

    This would allow us to reuse a single file request in a portal, but set the metadata on the uploaded documents, based on the current user's context. Content can then be routed in the Box system based on the metadata set.

  12. Workflow should be able to utilize metadata field to send notifications.

    we have buyers as part of the metadata. Workflow should have a notification as an outcome and retrieve email or user info from metadata to send notifications for folder events.

    We also have due date and status on the metadata, workflow should be able to check the date, status and sending overdue messages to the buyers.

  14. don't show files till all the files are uploaded

    I often send files to coworkers and I dislike that the file is downloadable to them before it's actually fully downloaded to box. This ends up creating a corrupt/ non-workable file for them. Also I think the files should not show up on their end before all the files are completely downloaded, in batch uploads because I will have coworkers then say only some of the files are downloaded and it looks like a mistake when it's just still uploading. Thanks!

  16. Add “Do something after a certain period of time” option in outcome

    Accessing to some of our manual documents is strictly managed and we would like to delete these documents which are not effective anymore after a certain period of time (e.g. 1 day, 1 week, custom lengths etc.). If Relay is capable of this, we can streamline other systems that are currently implemented.

  19. Multilingual file requests

    We need to be able to create file request forms in French and Spanish to send to folks who do not use English. While we can create some of the language in Spanish in designing the file request, all the instructions, help and error messages remain in English, which won't help our users.

  20. Box Relay: Action to move file to a folder named after Metadata attribute value

    Currently, you can have a trigger based on a Metadata condition. We would like to be able to have the outcome File Action to move the file to a folder that is named based on this Metadata value.

    For example, if there is a Metadata template with an Attribute called "Organization" with a possible value of "HR", then you could have a workflow to trigger when the metadata template is applied and the workflow outcome would move the file to a folder titled "HR".

    For another example, you could use a metadata template containing a date field and then move…
