Disable email upload notification for users who are uploading the files
We are using Box Email feature to collect all attachments from the important thread. Box sends notification after succesful upload for EACH file. Sometimes company logo in the signature is also treated as an attachment. The end result is too many emails from box.
It will be better to turn off this feature at the folder level. If folder to which the attachments get delivered could select to turn off the notifications, it would be greatly appriciated.13 votes -

Specific Text Box Area for Notifications
Problem: Whenever a notification popup shows up (file is done uploading, file has moved, etc) it blocks access to a lot of functionality in the upper part of the screen - even something that is to the left or right of the notification but is not covered up.
Rather than having a popup notification to tell you that an event has finished (such as a file or folder being moved), instead create a static notification area to report to.

Ability to send custom notifications for new uploads by external users
A customer of ours reached out to ask if it is possible to configure email notifications for a Box folder to send to anyone who uploads a document into this folder. Specifically she is asking whether an automatic reply email can be created and sent to anyone who uploads a file into a folder she owns. This folder is for admissions purposes, so having every uploader adjust their email notification settings is not a practical solution in this case. Since this is not currently an option for Box, I wanted to submit this feedback to suggest for future releases.

Ability to customize the notification emails sent from Relay
We would like to incorporate this into Relay as a review and tracing task by forcing notifications to specific people or groups.
It is difficult to do the above with the current e-mails being sent.
It can't be reached with a single click because there is no file name or link to the trigger folder in the email only.
Therefore, we would like to see the following improvements.[About the image]
・It could be mistaken for spam.
・Most of the mail body is occupied by images, making it difficult to read fixed messages.
At the very least, We would like…25 votes -
Allow granular controls for disabling "Mail All" function for file/folder shares with collaborators.
Allow companies to disable the "Mail All" function of the Collaboration page of a File/Folder so that hundreds/thousands of collaborators of a large company wide share cant be sent notifications errantly, causing a lot of unnecessary noise.

Allow Relay notifications to include manually entered email addresses instead of limiting the list to existing collaborators
Currently the Relay system will only allow notifications to be sent to existing collaborators or users. There should be a way to allow any manually entered email address to be a notification destination. This would allow for group or shared email accounts to be a notification destination. Group email addresses or shared email accounts may not exist as specific collaborators but still could be useful for notifications.

Ability for folder co-owners to recieve additional collaboration notifications
In Box, when a collaborator invites another collaborator, the owner of the folder will be notified by email that the collaborator has been added. I would like you to add the ability to send this notification to co-owners as well. Folders are often not managed by the owner alone, and co-owners need to get as much information as the folder owner.

But, we would like you to also notify co-owner who is collaborated in upper folder.2 votes -

Ability to manage pop-up messages
Integrate a switch to turn off pop-up notifications (those which pop up for every single step or process).
Maybe have different levels of notifications, like for debugging ("none" to "confirm every step")
There are way too many pop-ups in Box worsening the "user-experience".
See what can happen, if you have daily several hundreds or thousands of clicks too much to do for unnecessary things like clicking away pop-up windows which notify you about things you already know you have done (like another user put it so aptly into Box community):

Ability to select external users who are collaborating on a folder to be notified of workflows created in Relay
Currently, it is possible to set external users as notification recipients for workflows created in Relay only under certain conditions.
Conditions：
・The folder/file is owned by the creator of the Relay Workflow.
・It is the external user who is invited to this folder/file that is set as the notification destination.There are many situations in which we want to send notifications to external users in Relay workflows.
However, in a tenant running a closed folder configuration, it is rare that the workflow creator is the owner of the folder.Request：
For managed users who are collaborating on folders and who…14 votes -
Customized email subject for Box updates
I make Outlook email rules to keep all my projects organized, however I have multiple projects in Box . Issue being Box Update emails have zero reference to project or main folder name, so if I make a rule for Box Updates all my box updates get lumped in to one Outlook email folder. If there is any way to customize the email notifications(either custom project name or main folder name), please let me know. That would be very helpful

Customize invitation notifications to approvers for new feature additions
A new feature has been added to Relay called "Invite Contact as Viewer" which will send invitation notifications to users who have already been invited to a group.
We are getting invitation notifications every time we approve something, which is causing confusion.
Please stop the invitation notifications.「担当者をビューアーとして招待する」という新機能がRelayに追加されましたが、この機能によりグループですでに招待されているユーザーに招待通知が送信されます。
承認時に毎回招待通知が届いてしまい混乱を招いています。
そのため招待通知を止めるようにしてほしいです。23 votes -
Ability to set reminders for approaching deadlines on task approvals
In the current version of Box Relay, you can set a deadline when assigning a task.
However, after setting a deadline for approval, it would be nice if there was a function to send a reminder X days before the specified deadline so that the approval is not overlooked.
Please add a function to send a reminder at a specified date and time before the specified deadline to prevent the approval from being overlooked.
現在のBox Relayでは、タスクを割り当てるときに期限を設けることが出来ます。
しかしながら承認期限を設定した後に、指定された期限のX日前にリマインダーを送る機能があれば、承認を見落とすことがないかと思います。
見落としによる承認未実施を防ぐためにも、指定した期限前に指定した日時でリマインダーを送る設定機能を追加ください。10 votes -
Folder settings Notification mail
Currently, there are two ways to set up email notifications: from [Account Settings] and [Folder Settings].
The name "Folder Settings" may be misleading.
The reason for this is that the name [Folder Settings] seems to affect users who are invited to the folder as collaborators.
Therefore, please add a note to [Folder Settings] that the scope of the effect is only the user who made the setting, and that the effect is not reflected on users who are collaborating on the folder.
現在メールによる通知設定は、[アカウント設定]からと[フォルダ設定]があります。
この[フォルダ設定]ですが、とても誤解を受ける名称をしているかと存じます。
理由として、[フォルダ設定]とあるため、フォルダにコラボレーターとして招待されているユーザーに影響があるように見受けられるためです。
そのため、この[フォルダ設定]には影響範囲は設定を行ったユーザーのみであることと、フォルダにコラボレーションされているユーザーには反映されない旨を注釈として記載してください。4 votes
