Improvement of the interval at which the version history of BoxNotes is automatically saved
As the support article below states, "While you're working in Box Notes, we automatically save your changes as a new version roughly every 5 minutes or after 5 minutes of inactivity. "
However, if you continue to operate, it will only update the "current version" and will not automatically save a new version every 5 minutes.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043692834-Box-Notes%E3%81%AE%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A7%E3%83%B3%E5%B1%A5%E6%AD%B4%E3%81%AE%E8%BF%BD%E8%B7%A1
We would like to improve the function so that the version will be updated every 5 minutes even if the operation is being performed continuously.
In addition, since there is information that would be troublesome if it disappears due to an operation error,…14 votes -
Automatic compression functionality

Examples of requested features that are useful for business:
Ease preview restrictions on media files.
Eliminate the need to process files (separate or compress files).
Reduce resources on Box and traffic on the network.1 vote -
Box for Outlook Add-in fixed to save emails as .msg
When trying to save an email using the "Save to Box" Add-in, the only option is .eml. This was an old format for outlook express. Once an email is saved in this format, it cannot be opened in Outlook client. There needs to be an option for .msg. Using the File > Save As option allows you to change the extention, but that is extra steps. Outlook web will allow you to open the saved email, but you cannot save it as a .msg after the fact.

Provide option to omit the Signup and Login buttons from shared links (downloladable)
Please provide the option to omit the Signup and Login buttons for shared links (downloadable).
The presence of the Signup and Login buttons reduces the value of our Box.com account since the only way to circumvent the Box.com marketing fluff is to copy file from box to our CMS rather than just referencing our Box.com files. The existence of the Signup button both on the preview and pop-up that displays after clicking download results in calls to our support center from visitors to our website. The embed widget unfortunately doesn't improve the issue. Alternatively, if we could embed the Box…

Allow bulk action on Shield malicious content alerts
Allow bulk action on BoxShield malicious content alerts. We have seen an extremely high rate of positives. Individually marking files as safe is not scalable, and need to be able to do bulk updates.

Expand Capabilities for Adding External Collaborators to Relay Tasks/Notifications
Currently, a user can only add an external collaborator to a Relay Task/Notification if the following are true -
- The user owns the content
- The user has added the external collaborator to content
- The user has to have less than 5,000 external collaborators on items they own
Many customers have a closed folder structure, where one admin user owns all content, so this admin user would be the only one who can create the workflow with external collaborators added to tasks/notifications. For large organizations especially, this is difficult to administer and maintain, so ideally even users who do not own…

We'd like to limit amount of metadata downloaded by folder GET operation
We upload one or more files daily to the same folder so the content list of this folder keeps growing. In order to upload first step is to GET the folder by id. This step (https://developer.box.com/reference/get-folders-id/) appears to download metadata of every file in the folder and there's no way to limit it. It ends up being completely unnecessary because preflight check (https://developer.box.com/reference/options-files-content) doesn't need any of it. So, there should be a parameter in folder GET to skip downloading so much metadata.

Large user lists don't load in Box Shuttle and there is no way to filter or narrow scope
Build an option to filter on specific source user groups or OU's before trying to generate or load the user list.
Current behavior: Admin account is authenticated and user list is not able to load/populate because there are too many users on the source side.

API- Developer token
Hi team, what would be great is to get the possibility when we develop an API to have a token valid for more than 60 minutes.
Sometimes, to validate the principle of a dev, it's needs more than 1h
maybe an other solution would be to create a private app with small validation as the purpose is an internal specific need.1 vote -
Box Shuttle should allow Box as one of the source systems to migrate from
Currently, Box Shuttle standard tooling only supports migrations from OneDrive for Business, Dropbox for Business, and Google Drive as a part of Google Workspace. Box Shuttle should support Box as one of the source systems, so that Shuttle can be utilized for Box to Box migrations.
For example, consider this use case: a researcher is leaving institution A, and their research lives in institution A's Box instance. Their new institution, institution B, uses Box, and they need to get 10 years worth of research data from institution A to institution B's box instance, without having to download and reupload, or…

Select user group on BOX Rleay's workflow
When creating a workflow using BOX Relay, groups cannot be set as recipients in the notification options. When notifying a large number of people, it is time-consuming to enter the address for each person, so it would be nice to be able to set groups.

Automatic Size All Columns to Fit for Box Drive
It would be great if all columns in the box drive could be automatically expanded so that file names are not cut off. This feature is available in another product that we used.

Do not create folder in "All Files" when a user already has access to a folder in higher hierarchy
Everytime a Box folder is added to a Microsoft Teams team using the box plugin, or a user is invited to a box folder, the according folder appears in All files. We have a large number of teams and a lot of projects, so "All files" gets messed up quite quick. Box and the box plugin should check if a user already has access to a folder in the higher hierarchy. In this case the folder should not appear separately in "All Files".

Change the target of "Application Restrictions" (shared link creation / DL, etc.)
【English】
If "Restrict to applications" is turned on, all users will not be able to perform operations such as DL, editing, and creating shared links at once.
We would like to see a change so that the target of "Application Restrictions" (shared link creation / DL, etc.) can be specified.【日本語】
「アプリケーションへの制限」をONにした場合に全てのユーザーはDL・編集・共有リンク作成等の操作がまとめて不可となってしまいます。
「アプリケーションへの制限」の適用対象(共有リンク作成 / DL等)が指定できるようになるよう変更してほしい。2 votes -
Having staggard jobs for high number of file transfer through box shuttle
Currently box shuttle does not give the option to run the job either by size of data transfer or number of files.
If we have the option to stagger the job by number of files or size or even system auto divides the job into sub jobs then data transfer can be even faster and more convenient to handle.

Privileged Identity Management
I would like to see the ability to apply PIM for Box Admin and Co-Admin roles; a mechanism whereby the Admin role is granted for a minimal amount of time based on the Just in Time principle.
We would like to see minimum privileges, minimum time, and consistent with the company's zero-trust strategy.
Box管理者、共同管理者のロールについて、PIMを適用できるようにしてほしい。Just in Time の原則に基づき、最小限の時間だけ管理者ロールが付与される仕組み。
最小権限、最小時間を実現し、企業のゼロトラスト戦略との整合性を取ってほしい。

Create an audit only mode for classification policies
Auto-classification policies can receive an audit only mode similar to Shield Access Policies. Essentially an auto-classification policy in audit only mode will return a list of files that would have triggered an auto-classification upon upload or interaction. Shield administrators can then review the list of files that would have been classified and review for accuracy.
Decreases risk of misclassifying content due to policy misconfigurations.

Retention policy details in the Trash UI
The Bin/Trash UI displays Retention policy details the first time you trash an item until you navigate away.
Ability to have this info visible at all times in Trash UI would be helpful to end users and admin rather than running reports to check status of a single file.14 votes
