  1. Enhance relay feature

    Relay limitations:

    Not being able to tie outcomes from one flow to other outcomes from other flows all within the same workflow. Dynamically having related outcomes is critical to Relay’s usefulness.

    Cascading folder metadata not being brought over when copying a file.

    Having a third option for approval tasks (approved with feedback/conditionally approved).

  3. Import Relay workflow into production environment

    Having the ability to export/import Relay workflows (without roles etc.) from sandbox to production will smooth the onboarding and transition process.

  4. Automate: Request for Copy Feature for Approval Tasks

    When defining Outcomes in Box Automate, the copy function is useful for cases where similar outcomes need to be set up repeatedly within the same flow, for example when creating a flow that requires multiple rounds of approval, where there is likely to be considerable demand for this capability.
    Currently, however, this option is not available for Approval Tasks, as the copy icon does not appear when the outcome type is an Approval Task.
    It would be helpful if Approval Tasks could also support the same copy functionality as other outcome types.

    (日本語)
    Box Automateで結果を定義する際、同じフロー内で類似の結果を繰り返し設定する必要がある場合にコピー機能が便利です。例えば、複数回の承認が必要なフローを作成する場合、この機能の需要はかなり高いと考えられます。

    しかし現時点では、結果が承認タスクの場合はコピーアイコンが表示されないため、コピー機能を利用できません。

    承認タスクについてもほかの結果と同様にコピー機能がサポートされると、とても助かります。

  6. I would like you to implement a function that allows you to obtain information from login information when using "Box Relay".

    Currently, you can use metadata when renaming files using Box Relay.
    Similarly, I would like to be able to use the signed-in user's My Profile information as the value of "Available Variables".
    (email address, name, company name, etc.)
    Being able to use the information of the signed-in user allows you to obtain reliable information, which I think will improve convenience in various ways.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    「Box Relay」使用時に、ログイン情報から情報を取得できる機能を実装して欲しい。
    <本文>
    現在「Box Relay」を使用して、ファイル名のリネームを行う際に、メタデータを使用する事ができます。
    同じ様に、「利用可能な変数」の値として、サインインしているユーザーのマイプロフィール情報を使用できる様にして頂きたいです。
    (メールアドレス、氏名、会社名、等々…)
    サインインしているユーザーの情報を使える事は、確実な情報を取得する事ができ、様々な点で利便性が上がると思います。
    ご検討の程よろしくお願い申し上げます。

  7. The ability to resize or delete the astronomical images on the Relay notifications.

    In its current state, the astronomical image is so large that it is difficult to see the text underneath.
    Since there is no need to display images, we are requesting the implementation of this function.

    現在の状態では天体画像が大きいことで下にある本文の確認がしづらいです。
    画像を表示させる必要性もないため機能の実現を求めます。

  8. Automated File renaming (at scale) - Programmatic creation of workflows

    When a file is moved to any folder called “#Archive”, the file should be renamed with a prefix of “OLD_”

    For example: I have a file called “mywordfile.docx” I now want to archive this file, so I drag it into a folder call “#Archive”. Box Automation should then rename my file to “OLD_mywordfille.docx”

    Problem statement
    The box automation trigger “when file moved to folder” requires an explicit folder path. Meaning I would need to configure a rule per “#Archive” folder within our folder structure. We have many. So, manually setting up relay for every single #Archive folder is not a…

  9. Relay based on folder name

    It would be helpful to be able to create a relay workflow based on the folder name so we can auto-copy/move a folder based on a specified folder name.
    eg: if a folder starts with 'ZZtest' move the entire folder into another parent folder.

  10. Build a dashboard so that we can track the progress of our workflows that are in flight.

    Build a dashboard so that we can track the progress of our workflows that are in flight. There could be hundreds of workflows in progress at any time and it is too time consuming to log into each one to check progress.

  11. Modifying Relay AllowList that includes deleted users

    If a user previously set in the Relay AllowList is deleted, the deleted user will remain in the list and the error "The specified login is inactive or invalid" happened when I try to save the list.
    Even if I click "Save" without editing anything, same error occurs.

    It is not possible to export the user s of Relay AllowList, and there is no choice but to check each account one by one and deal with it, so I request improvement.

  12. Box sign automation with relay

    After a Box Signer completes a document(i.e NDA), using relay having automation to add that signer as a collaborator to a folder. This would be a tremendous enhancement for anyone who uses Box as a data room or would like automation with Box Sign and Relay.

  13. UI alert on invite message when character limit is exceeded

    It is VERY annoying to write a nice detailed note to the person you are inviting and then have it just disappear bc the character limit has been exceeded. Box should either not allow you to exceed the character limit, or at least have it refuse to send the invite but not completely delete everything you have just written!!!

  14. Add “Specify when started” option in “Send a notification” outcome

    There is an option “Specify when started” in “Assign a task” outcome. It would be convenient to have a similar option in “Send a notification” outcome, since the recipients might vary depending on who started the workflow.

  15. Move or copy to multiple folders

    I would like to be able to Move or Copy a group of files to multiple folders in one click. It seemed when you added the radio buttons, that might be possible to select multiple destinations. Alas no.

  17. Requesting the ability to upload a file for sharing but set a date/time for when the sharing will start.

    In the entertainment business films and music can't be released until a specific date and time. The assets are ready in advance. I would like to create a folder for sharing with a start date and time for the sharing. This way I can invite people to a folder i want to share, but they can't access the content until the approved date and time. A time counter would be great so the person i am sharing with will know when the files will be released.

  18. Box Automate: Support for “Form Metadata Template”

    When a large number of metadata fields are captured via Forms, mapping each variable to metadata fields within the workflow becomes time-consuming and complex.

    It would be highly beneficial to support applying metadata to files using a “Form Metadata Template,” similar to Relay, to simplify workflow creation.

    formsで入力するメタデータフィールドが多い場合、ワークフロー内でフォームで取得した変数をメタデータフィールドにマッピングするのに手間がかかってしまいます。
    Relayと同様に「Formメタデータテンプレート」を使ってファイルにメタデータを付ける操作もサポートしてほしい。

  19. Improvement of the repeat timing for Box Relay schedule events

    When trying to set the repeat timing for a Box Relay schedule event to monthly, currently you can only choose the 1st day or the last day every few months.
    The timing of the event's start is not necessarily at the beginning or end of the month, so it is inconvenient to use.
    I would like you to add a setting that repeats monthly based on the start date, like the report scheduling feature.

    -in Japanese-
    Box Relayのスケジュールイベントを毎月に設定しようとしたとき、現在は何か月ごとの第1日目もしくは最終日しか選択できません。イベントの開始タイミングは必ずしも月初や月末ではないため使いにくいです。レポートのスケジュール設定のように、開始日を基準に毎月繰り返すような設定を追加してほしい。

  20. We would like to see the user name added to the search for workflows in BoxRelay in the admin console as a search target.

    We would like to see the user name added to the search for workflows in BoxRelay in the admin console as a search target.

    Currently, only the workflow name can be searched in the search window in the workflow list of the Management Console.
    When an administrator disables a user's workflow from the management console, It is very difficult to pick up the target user because the workflow can only be searched by workflow name.
    Adding the user name as a search target will make it easier for the administrator to specify a user and disable the workflow.

    管理コンソールのBoxRelayのワークフローの検索にユーザー名を検索対象に追加して欲しい

    現在、管理コンソールのワークフロー一覧では検索窓ではワークフロー名のみ検索が可能です。…
