  1. Please create a BoxCLI that can be used by general users.

    Currently, the BoxCLI is only available to administrators.
    We have received requests from non-administrative Box users to do their own work from the command line.
    This is a very strong request.
    Please create a BoxCLI that can be used by general users.

    We would like a function to disable comments, tasks, and version history when "Hide collaborators and their activities from non-owners" is enabled in the "Privacy" folder settings.

    If you invite multiple external collaborators, you don't want external people to detect who you are inviting.
    There is a function to hide collaborators, but if invited external users use comments, tasks, version history, it will be possible to see who is invited, so we would like to disable these functions I do.

  3. Have cursor be in New Folder name input upon selecting New/Folder

    This used to happen automatically but now when a user creates a new folder, they have to click into the folder name input box; last month, this was not an issue (i.e., when a user clicked New, then Folder, they could instantly start typing the name of the new folder and then click Create to make the folder).

  5. Speed up the file indexing process

    Accoding to the website, indexing usually takes around 10 minutes (sometimes more than 10 minutes), but it often takes half a day to a day or more.
    This indexing process is taking too much time and affecting the invoicing process, so we would like to improve the processing speed.

    (In Japamese)
    【ファイルのインデックス作成プロセスを高速化】

    ウェブサイトではインデックス処理は10分程度(場合によっては10分を超える)と書いてありますが、たびたび半日~1日以上かかることがあります。
    このインデックス作成処理に時間がかかりすぎており、請求書発行処理に影響を及ぼしているため、処理速度を改善したいです。

  6. Preserve names when staff leaves

    Add a feature to preserve the names of departed users in the Box Activity comments and tasks and approvals instead of changing their names to "Anonymous User" or "A Prior Collaborator" to preserve records of who was involved in the approval process even if they no longer have active accounts. Additionally, approvals set up by departed users should remain visible and not disappear from the Activity box. This is important for any company using Box as a review or internal control tool.

  7. Set the number of invitation reminder emails to be sent.

    When a managed user invites an external user, I would like a feature that allows them to set the number of reminder emails to be sent, such as once a day, once every three days, once a week, etc.
    This prevents random and careless reminder emails from being sent repeatedly to users of other companies.

    (日本語)
    <送信する招待リマインダーメールの数を設定します>
    管理対象ユーザーが社外ユーザーに招待した際に、リマインドメールを1日に1回、3日に1回、1週間に1回など、送信回数を設定できる機能がほしいです。
    これによりランダムかつ不用意に何度も送信されるリマインドメールが他社のユーザーに送信されることを防ぐことができます。

  8. If the parent company and multiple subsidiaries are using Box in separate tenants, I want to be able to manage them with one tenant.

    If we were to integrate a parent company tenant and multiple subsidiary tenants into one tenant, it would take a lot of time to migrate a large amount of data, and it would be difficult to parallelize business operations, which would be unrealistic.

    As an example, if the management is performed by the parent company's tenant, the purpose is as follows.
    ・User management is done by the parent tenant.
    ・Leave the data as is to multiple subsidiary tenants.
    ・like to see not only the treatment of different tenants as separate companies, but also a bracketing that makes them the same…

  9. Approval Result Email

    The account that executed the trigger that started the BoxRelay will receive an email with the approval results of the relay, but we would like to limit the notification of the approval results.
    (Ex. No email notification of approval results during the flow, only the final results are emailed, etc.)

  10. I want to be able to check the number of contents including file versions

    The only way to check the number of contents, including the number of versions, is by visual inspection at this time.
    It is very time-consuming and labor-intensive to just visually check the number of versions as the hierarchy increases.
    Therefore, we would like to have the ability to easily check the number of all versions, even when the number of contents is large.
    Example:You can make it the output target of the report, etc.

    バージョン数を含むコンテンツ数を確認する場合、現時点では目視で確認する方法しかありません。
    階層が多くなることでバージョン数を目視で確認するだけでは非常に手間となり時間が掛かります。
    そのため、コンテンツ数が多い場合でもすべてのバージョン数を簡単に確認できる機能が欲しい。
    例:レポートの出力対象にしていただく、など

  11. Dedicated File Shortcuts without using Bookmarks

    Currently if I want to create a link from one folder to a file or folder stored elsewhere in the system, the recommendation is to use Bookmarks. This method has several disadvantages.

    • First, it requires creating the link on the target file or folder, meaning you need to navigate away from the folder where the bookmark needs to exist.
    • Second, shared links can be removed, disabled, or expired, which would break the bookmark.
    • Third, bookmarks do not work in Box Drive.

    I would suggest a dedicated mechanism within the Box system for creating and maintaining shortcuts, which…

  12. Setting up Box Edit to open in multiple applications

    Currently, when editing a file in Box Edit, there is only one application based on the extension that can be opened on the desktop.
    If you want to change the program selected by Box Edit, you need to change the registry value (HKEYCLASSESROOT\SystemFileAssociations).
    However, depending on the user's environment, registry operations may be blocked by the administrator and cannot be circumvented in this way.

    Can you please develop a standard feature that allows multiple applications to be selected when opening a file in Box Edit?
    This would greatly improve the efficiency of the work.

  14. About the shared link in the browser URL field.

    About the shared link in the browser URL field.
    I would like the displayed shared link address to be selectable below.
    ・Display up to the file or folder ID
    ・ Display ID and shared link

    If the shared link is also displayed, the collaborator will not be able to access the shared link when the shared link expires. If the display is up to the ID, the collaborator will have permanent access.

  16. Please stop removing features and services for paying Personal Pro accounts; or give us the chance to upgrade without 3 users min

    I have been paying for Personal Pro since 2014. Since then I have been paying the same amount every month, and have had features and services removed.

    First was tracking file downloads/views. Then this week I lost the ability to make Custom URLs.

    When I asked about my options, I was told that I could upgrade to a Business account; but for that I'd need a minimum of 3 users. I am a freelancer and work by myself. I have no need to pay for 3 users when it's just me.

    I think it's completely unprofessional and unethical to not…

  17. Relay Lite for multiple users

    Relay Lite has a limitation that would work only for a home user. Any business organization would have a primary and backup user monitoring work items, so the ability to list multiple people on the workflow notifications and having only one complete it is essential. We can list multiple recipients in other areas of your product, and should be able to do so in Relay-Lite, rather than being restricted to a single radio button choice.

  18. Add sorting and filtering to "My Cases" on Community site

    When I go to "My Cases" on the Box Community site to view open support cases, I have a table with headings ID - SUBJECT - CREATED - UPDATED - PRIORITY - STATUS

    I would love the ability to sort the columns, but that is not an option.
    I do not see any way to display more than 20 cases on a page, so I need to view my cases on different pages.

    There is ONE filter, but it is not so useful, because there are multiple "statuses" that would be useful to see together, such as a way to…

  19. Have a different section/page for Shared links setting on account settings page

    Right now, shared links setting is on "Sharing" tab. This has create a confusion for customer in the following scenario:

    Customer recently switched from company only to open link on admin console settings. They expected that this will change the settings of all managed users, but some users still defaulted to company only link. This was because those users updated email settings before (which happens to be in the same "Sharing" tab) while the "company only" was selected in the Shared Links setting and saved as their individual setting.
