Docsend Features
Hi Team, someone at RH brought to my attention a service from Dropbox called DocSend. It has many security features that Box already offers, but a notable highlight is the ability to track how long someone views a document and provides analytics on the time spent on specific pages.
Can Box add a similar feature? I would like our staff to stay on a unified platform and not need to open a Dropbox account.1 vote -
Progress rate of bulk data restoration and deletion
I want to know if there is a feature to monitor the restoration progress from the management console when restoring data in bulk from the trash. Also, I would like a feature to track the progress of bulk data deletion from a folder from the management console.

Add new formats to formatting text tags (年月日, yyyy/mm/dd)
Please make the text tags specified in DocGen templates compatible with the date formats commonly used by Japanese customers.
These are formats that are very commonly used in contracts and invoices.
1. yyyy/mm/dd → 2025/06/06
2. yyyy/m/d → 2025/6/6
3. yyyy年mm月dd日 → 2025年06月06日
4. yyyy年m月d日 → 2025年6月6日ーーーーーーーーーーーー
DocGenテンプレートで指定するテキストタグで、日本のお客さまがよく使う日付書式に対応してほしい。これらは契約書や請求書でとてもよく使う書式です。

2.yyyy/m/d → 2025/6/6

Identify which files and folders a user owns within a shared Teams folder, that are not shared or collaborated with others
We encountered a situation where certain files inside a shared drive were only visible to one user, while others couldn’t access them. This caused confusion because the files appeared to be part of the shared structure but were effectively private. A feature that highlights or filters these user-owned, non-shared items would help prevent misunderstandings and improve transparency.

Box Hubs Analytics
Would be great to see metrics on how adopted our Hubs are. How many visits, which box users are visiting, how long each visit is, etc. Is this on the roadmap?

Ability to Customize Styling of Box Sign Email Notifications
Hi Box Support,
I’d like to submit a feature request for Box Sign regarding the email notifications that are sent to recipients when requesting signatures.
Currently, these emails appear to use a standard layout and font, with limited ability to customize the visual presentation. It would be extremely helpful to have the option to customize the email’s styling, including:
Font size and font family
Line spacing and paragraph formatting
Branding options (e.g., header image, color accents)
HTML support for enhanced formatting
This would allow users to create a more professional, brand-consistent, and user-friendly experience for signers. Even limited template or…

Integrated Chat Functionality (Native to Box)
Our audience is mostly external partners, all who use disparate communication platforms like Slack, Teams, Google Chat, Zoom, etc. Integrating a single third-party chat option into our Box Hubs environment risks alienating some of our external partners who are unable to use that specific platform due to their organization’s IT guidelines. It would be beneficial to have a native, lightweight and persistent chat area within our Box Hubs environment (maybe as a side panel similar to Box AI) that would allow users to communicate immediately about content and projects and ask questions without having to leave the Box environment.

Ability to change and update assignee on expired tasks
We would like to see an improvement so that it is possible to delete and update users from "Modify Task" even for expired tasks.
For expired tasks, pressing "Update" from "Change Task" will not respond, and the task cannot be edited.
It is inconvenient not to be able to edit or update tasks, as tasks cannot be marked as completed when unauthorized users are absent due to leaving the company or being transferred.
Also, although it is possible to update a task by extending its deadline, I would like to keep a history of when the task was created.

User Offboarding (File/Folder Moves)
I’d like to suggest an improvement to the user offboarding process. When we delete a user, it would be very helpful to have more granular control over where that user’s files and folders are moved within the tenant. This way we can choose someone and then maybe a subfolder they want the data placed in.
Specifically, having the option to:
- Choose the destination folder for the disabled user’s content.
- Include checkbox option to include trash bin contents along with the rest of their files.This would make the offboarding process more efficient and ensure nothing is overlooked.

Add a "View All Tasks" button to the left menu
To view all tasks, you need to press the clipboard icon and then select "View All Tasks."
It takes two clicks each time, which is very time-consuming.
I would like you to add it to the left menu so that I can check all tasks with a single click.

Support for Multiple Upload Zones in Box Forms + Relay
Summary:
Enable the creation of multiple, distinct file upload zones within a single application or embed experience—for example, within a Box Doc Gen-powered form or workflow.Details:
Today, applications built with Box’s Form capabilities typically support a single upload zone or file request area. This limits the ability to organize incoming files contextually during intake or data collection workflows.We’re requesting support for multiple upload zones in the same app or form—each mapped to a different folder, metadata tag, or Doc Gen trigger.
Example Use Case – Box Doc Gen for Application Processing:

External Users sortable columns and bulk deletion based on last active date
Box makes it easier thru the Admin console GUI in the near future.
For External Users a sortable column of “Last Active” and then bulk deletion is needed in the Admin GUI.It would also be nice to have the option in Security to set a threshold like 90 days inactive for External Users before auto-delete to manage this automatically going forward.

Added annotation function to the BoxNotes preview screen
This is a request for a preview screen that appears when the BoxNotes URL is changed from "notes" to "file."
When reviewing the text and inserted images in a created Note, the annotation function cannot be used, making it difficult to request corrections by pointing out specific parts.To streamline file reviews, please make the annotation feature available in BoxNotes as well.
A good place to place the annotation function is on the text written or on the inserted image in the BoxNotes preview screen.
BoxNotesのURLを"notes"から"file"へ変更した際に表示されるプレビュー画面の要望です。
作成したNoteの文章・挿入画像のレビューを行う際に注釈機能が利用出来ない為、特定の箇所を明記して修正依頼をすることが難しい。
ファイルレビュー効率化の為、BoxNotesでもアノテーション機能を利用できるように変更してください。
アノテーション機能の位置は、BoxNotesのプレビュー画面で書かれたテキストや挿入された画像の箇所が良い。4 votes -
We want to make it easier to change the owner of a workflow in Box Relay.
In Japan, organizational changes and personnel transfers occur frequently, which necessitates changing the owner of workflows in Box Relay.
Currently, to change the owner, users have to transfer the workflow to another user and disable the original workflow.This process is not intuitive and is cumbersome for users. Additionally, there are too many steps involved. As a result, even though Relay is a good feature, it feels difficult to use and does not gain user adoption.
We would like to see improvements that allow for a one-click transfer of ownership.
For example, adding an option to change the owner in…10 votes -
Ability to keep recent updates highlighted
In a shared Box Note, any new updates are highlighted, but once I review the notes and navigate away from the page, the highlights disappear. I know there's a toggle at the top to turn highlights off and on, but can there be a way to keep new updates highlighted until i'm ready to turn them off; regardless if I navigate away from the page. Just to give an example, someone added and edited a bunch of new information to my box note. So much so, there was too many for me to review and address. I went away from…

Add additional file attribute filters when viewing files
Currently there are only 3 file filter attributes. (Name, Updated, Size) Would like to add additional file details to the UI. For example, if a file is received via File Request and file description is enabled, have that available for view right on the screen instead of having it to hover the "i" icon to view the details
