  1. status

    When deleting a file on the server, I would like to be able to see the status until the deletion is complete.
    Also, when restoring a file from the Recycle Bin, I would like to be able to see the status until the restoration is complete. (ex. progress bar,,,)

  2. Prefer that it's not automatically set to "comment with time stamp" for video files

    When commenting on a video file, the timestamp automatically comes on. It gets in the way. Our team don't use this feature. Can it be set to off? And when we decide to use the time stamp feature, we can toggle it on.

    Sometimes we just need to comment back and forth without actually using the time stamp. Thanks!

  3. Add a “comment visibility” option in Link Settings

    In Link Settings, we’d like an option to control whether comments are visible.
    Currently, when a shared link is set to a non-edit permission such as Can view only (or Can view and download), comments aren’t visible to viewers. Even for non-edit shared links, we want viewers to be able to view timestamped comments on videos, since this feature is extremely useful.
    Use case: We publish videos on Box Hubs and share them externally using People with the link (Can view only). If viewers could see comments, we could point them to specific parts of the video more efficiently.

  4. We would like to be able to check users’ departments from the UI:

    Currently, you can view the usernames of users invited to a folder and the permissions granted to them within that folder.
    However, there is no field in the account profile settings for entering a user’s department, so it cannot be easily checked.
    While it is possible to work around this by adding the department to the username, this makes usernames longer and harder to read.
    For example, I would like to be able to confirm a user’s department by displaying it in the same area as the permissions granted in the folder, or by showing the department when hovering the…

  5. create a new folder while moving file

    There should be the ability to create a new folder while moving a file to a new location. Right now we have to create the folder in the location we want the new file in and then return to the current location and then move it. Time consuming.

  6. Is it possible to upload a document in box that has links to folders within Box

    I would like to know is it possible to create a document that has URLS that connect to other folders within my box tenant, or within my folder structure?

  7. Request for Dynamic Session Timeout Control Based on SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter

    We would like Box to reference the SessionNotOnOrAfter value in the SAML response and allow the session timeout to be set shorter than the tenant’s default value (and, if possible, longer as well).

    Our intention is to have the IdP determine the security level based on factors such as device type and user type, and then shorten the session only when the risk is high, while allowing longer sessions when the risk is low, thereby enabling risk-based session management.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter によるセッションタイムアウト動的制御の要望

    <本文>
    SAMLレスポンス内の SessionNotOnOrAfter を参照し、Boxのセッションタイムアウトをテナントデフォルト値より短く(可能であれば長くも)設定できるようにしていただきたいです。
    IdP側でデバイス種別・ユーザー種別などから安全性を判定し、安全性が低い場合のみセッションを短く、高い場合は長くすることで、リスクベースのセッション管理を実現したい意図があります。

  9. I would like the shared links to be automatically converted into hyperlink format instead of just displaying the URL.

    Similar to how it works in SharePoint, I would like the system to automatically convert shared links into a hyperlink format using the file or folder name, rather than displaying them as a raw URL.
    SharePointで出来るように、共有リンクを作成した際にURL形式ではなく、ファイル名やフォルダ名のハイパーリンク形式に自動変換できるようにしてほしいです。

  10. Ability to disable file preview in Box for Slack integration

    Whenever I share or hyperlink a Box link in Slack, it automatically attaches a Box preview card. This clutters messages and isn’t always necessary. Could you please check whether Box’s Slack integration settings allow us to disable or limit automatic link previews? This does not seem to be a feature I can disable on my account alone.

    According to Box documentation, this can be managed from the Box Admin Console → Apps → Slack Integration Settings, by disabling “Automatic link previews in Slack.”

    We would like to be able to be able to individually disable the file preview.

  11. Quota Storage reporting

    We have implemented Storage Quotas for our users and need a way to view if users are reaching their quotas. The only current way we have of doing this is doing a Users Details report and comparing the Storage Used and Storage Allocated fields. Have a dedicated Storage Quota report that shows percentage used and even projected dates for running out of space would be nice.

  12. Enable selecting files stored in Box directly in File Requests

    Currently, file request links only allow you to upload files from local folders.
    This is convenient if you use Box Drive, but users who rely solely on the browser have to download files from Box and then re-upload them via the file request link.

    I would like the file selection for file requests to allow choosing not only folders on the PC, but also files already stored in Box directly from the browser interface.

    〈ファイルリクエストでBox内ファイルを直接選択可能にしたい〉
    現在、ファイルリクエストリンクでは、ローカルフォルダ内のファイルしかアップロードできません。
    Box Drive を利用している場合は便利ですが、ブラウザのみを利用するユーザーは、いったん Box からファイルをダウンロードしてから、ファイルリクエストリンクへ再度アップロードする必要があります。

    ファイルリクエストでアップロードするファイルの選択時に、PC上のフォルダだけでなく、ブラウザ画面から Box 内に保存されているファイルも直接選べるようにしてほしいです。

  13. Want to Restore Data Within a Specified Period

    Content: The current Box feature does not have the capability to restore data within a specified period.
        While you can check the deletion date within the trash, it takes time to verify if a large amount of content has been deleted, making immediate response difficult.
        ※In the case of "Restore All," all content will be restored, which may cause locking by LFO and impact operations.
        For example, we hope for the implementation of a feature that restores content deleted within a specified period in the trash.

    (日本語)
    件名:指定した期間内のデータ復元を行いたい
    内容:現在のBox機能では指定した期間内のデータを復元できるような機能はありません。
       ごみ箱内で削除された日付を確認できますが、大量のコンテンツを削除した場合に、確認に時間がかかり、即時対応が難しいです。
       ※「すべての復元」では全てのコンテンツが復元されるため、LFOによるロックがかかる可能性があり、業務に影響があります。
       例えば、ごみ箱内で指定した期間内に削除されたコンテンツを復元するような機能実装を希望します。

  14. I want to save Copilot for Microsoft 365-generated content directly to Box

    Currently, when I use Copilot’s generative AI features, the only default save destination is OneDrive—Box isn’t even an option. For those of us who live and breathe Box it would be fantastic if we could save Copilot-generated content directly to Box and keep everything in one place.

    Right now, every time Copilot asks, “Save to OneDrive?” I feel like saying, “Nice try, Copilot, but my heart belongs to Box!” Please help us Box fans avoid this daily heartbreak and make Box a first-class citizen for Copilot saves. Thank you!

    〈Copilot for Microsoft 365で生成したコンテンツを直接Boxに保存したい〉
    現在、Copilotで生成AI機能を利用し作成したコンテンツの保存先は、OneDriveがデフォルトとなっており、Boxを選択することができません。
    Boxでコンテンツを一元管理するため、Copilotで生成したコンテンツの保存先にBoxを追加してほしいです。

  15. Box integration sending emails with inconsistent formatting

    Box integration is sending unusal format to emails resulting in + between each word. This was reported and found Thanks for testing and sharing your observations. The behavior you’re seeing with the + signs in the subject and body is due to how the Box integration generates the Outlook on the web compose window. It URL-encodes spaces as +, which Outlook sometimes displays as spaces and sometimes shows literally — this explains why clearing the browser cache makes it look correct for the first attachment but not for subsequent ones.

    Essentially, this is a limitation of how the integration constructs…

  16. Request for control over shared links for company users

    In order to share content quickly and securely with certain company users, we would like to request the following features

    ・Allow passwords to be set on shared links even when they are addressed to company users.

    ・Allow tenant default values for shared link expiration to be configured specifically for “company users.”

  17. Expire shared links for external users, but not internal employees

    When employees use shared links to exchange sensitive data with clients, we set them to expire for security reasons. However, when we later encounter a shared link within an internal email or slack message, we can no longer see what it linked to. We could go run a report to find out, but that would be a support ticket. It would be much better if shared links could just continue working for employees (if they are permitted direct access) even after they have expired for external users.

    Before link expiration, content is accessible to anybody internal or external who has…

  18. Links

    When sharing a link, if a user has Box installed, it prompts them to sign in or sign up; they do not get an option to simply open the link. This is unfriendly! Let's make Box less nerdy and more sensitive to the user experience.

    I have clients who will not use box links because of this.

  19. Secure email included in the Box platform for threaded emails

    I'd like to request a feature for secure, threaded email within Box to streamline confidential communications and keep messages and files in one secure place. This would reduce reliance on external tools and improve compliance. Let me know if it's on the roadmap.

  20. Have the ability to save a preset for organizing files (ie always default to alphabetical)

    It would be great to have the ability to save your desired file organizing layout so that you don't have to constantly click "sort by alphabetical" everytime you go back and forth on different pages.
