Allow File Request Boxes to be customized
The file request boxes are extremely limited and need some basic levels of customization. The iframes are ugly and need to go, but at the very least we should be able to chose the height and width of them.

A subfolder is automatically created for each file when the file is uploaded by File request.
Eliminate the hassle of creating individual folders for uploaded files and facilitate our next task.
For the folder name, it is preferable to be able to specify metadata (email address, etc.).1 vote -
file request for basic users
I don't have a business account. I use it for free lance, studies, casual projects.
It would be nice if this is available for free users1 vote -
Allow enter date for tasks within a workflow
Today the initiator of the workflow can enter recipients for a task outcome, but cannot specify date. This is very limiting in case the tasks should be completed by a certain date that can only be known by the initiator.
I have a use case for a highly valuable workflow, but because of this missing capability it cannot be implemented.
I believe that adding this capability make a lot of sense and would make the use of tasks in workflows much more powerful.1 vote -
Relay outcome based on File Type
Use Relay to take actions on files based on file type - e.g. ability to create a workflow that if X file is uploaded to a folder and is a .JPG, the outcome would be to add Z metadata or copy the file to Y folder, etc.

File Request User Configuration - error messaging
When configuring File Request for "enable for select users", users remain in the list even if they have been deleted from Box. If you try to add a new user to the list, you will receive an error message. The reason for the error is because a deleted user is still in the list, however the error is a standard message and does not explicitly say this. So customers do not know why they are getting an error. There should be clearer messaging in the error so customers know what they need to do.

Relay Workflow to follow messages/ notifications to activities
It would be super helpful if you could use Box Relay to let a notification follow an activity. I know that you can generate tasks, but in that case I just want to let a certain group of users know that there is new content in a folder. A notification would be the best way to do this.

create folder while making workflow
Allow users when they are building a relay workflow to have the ability to search through a folder structure and create a new folder when they are building a new flow.
This would eliminate the issue of users having to have a predefined folder structure before making the workflow and make it significantly easier to use.

Provide the ability to customize the message that is sent to workflow participants when starting a Relay workflow.
I have a review workflow that I want to use repeatedly. Each time I start the workflow I have specific instructions that I want the workflow participants to see. This is usually a complete timeline for the review cycle in which the current review might be the first or subsequent steps.
My workaround right now is to send a separate email to the workflow participants, but this means they get 2 emails about the same review.

File Request Scripting
Customer would like to use File Request instead of FTP, however, there is no way to script a automatic process to upload via file request.
We have a vendor that needs to upload files to us. They have an automated/scripted process using FTP so wanted to know if there was a way to do the same via File Request, otherwise it would be a manual process.

Ability to start 'manual start' workflows at levels other than editor
It would be great for the workflow owner to be able to set a lower level of permission to be able to kick of certain manual start workflows. The use case is that a client has a bunch of reference documents that they don't want their general audience to be able to download or edit, but still want them to be able to request changes to be made as part of a formalised process. At present those people can still annotate and comment, but the team making the changes can't track what's being asked, and so have to manually keep…

options dialog when moving and file already exists in destination
Currently, when a file is in the process of being moved from one folder to other and a file with the same name already exists in the destination folder, an error message is given and the operation is candelled.
Maybe an options dialog would be better, asking the user if they want to overwrite (add a new version of) the file, or rename either of the files within the dialog.1 vote -

Remember the folder location for your flow on folder picker component
Once you built your workflow, sometimes you want to doublecheck folder location for your flow.
When folder structure is deep, the path is not visible on your flow, so you click the folder picker but it will navigate you to a root folder instead of the folder you selected.
It will be helpful if it has an option to go to the selected folder location for the flow rather than root folder.1 vote -
Enhance page view for Relays in new UI
When accessing Relay in the new UI, not all Relay workflows incrementally load nor are there pages to navigate through to view all workflows. I would like the ability to see all relays on one or multiple pages without using text filters.

When copying a folder with File Requests configured within it, add an option to have the File Request configurations copied as well.
We have a need to setup folders with File Request features for our customers. When we do this manually, it takes a lot of time to set everything up as we need it. We'd like to be able to copy a folder (along with its subfolders) and its File Request setup. This would make any existing setup, like a template, which we can simply copy and rename in preparation for another customer.
Currently, we can only copy the folders with or without contents. But either action does not copy the File Request configurations in the source folder.
Thanks for your…

Improve Relay error messaging for missing info
If there is info missing, the relay workflow can still be saved. Instead of wiping out all that you've drafted, it goes into an inactive state so you don’t lose your work when you close the window.
Even better would be if the error tells you WHERE you are missing info. Instead of the vague, “please fill out all required fields before saving" messaging

Provide support for workflow to allow external sharing on specific piece of content only after approval.
This should be core Box functionality, not Box Relay.
