  1. Allow Excel to open "Export Users" report (csv) without worrying about garbled characters

    Admin Console > Users&Groups > Managed Users > Export Users

    Please change "Export Users" report to the format of the UTF8 csv file with BOM

    The format of the "Export Users" report has been changed to csv.
    Therefore, when you import it into Excel as it is, the characters will be garbled.

    ​The workaround now:
    We change it to csv file with UTF8 BOM in a text editor now before importing it into Excel.

    However, this workaround would required few extra steps before importing it into Excel.

  2. New Files take 10 minutes to appear in the search (Content Explorer)

    It takes ~10 minutes for a newly added file to appear in the search of the Content Explorer UI Element. In the meantime, if you attempt to search for that file based on the name, it displays no results, making it look like a bug. It can take even longer if the servers are busy (it took ~20 minutes for a file I uploaded to appear in a search one time)

    Please look for ways to reduce the turnaround on this. A suggestion: the file should be available to search by name right away, if it takes ~10 minutes to…

  3. lock reservation function

    Currently, we cannot make a reservation to lock the file.
    Customer wants lock reservation function.

    Example : If folder owner select lock date to 1/2, User can edit its file until 1/1. After 1/2, user will be not able to edit it.

    Use case :If this function was implemented, user can create deadline to editing file.

  4. Provide the ability to allow co-owners to manage trashed items in Item I Own

    Currently only owner's can manage item trashed by others under folders they own, we would like co-owners of items have the same ability as owners to be able to manage trashed items under Items I Own or add another filter Items I Co-Own. There are two scenarios that will be very help pull, one when the folder structures are configured such that owners are system accounts and real users are co-owners and others and the other scenario is if owner is not available for some reason then co-owners can take their tasks. This will allow co-owners to view items trashed…

  5. Quit with the Box Mobile popups.

    I know it's there. I will get it if I want it. But interrupting my work every 10 minutes with a popup I need to close is about enough to make me cancel my subscription.

  6. Opening links from PPTs in Box

    Currently I can nicely preview files created with Microsoft Powerpoint. Also these days I can click links in the PPT and those open up. With the exception of links containing a hashtag. Then only the part of the URL before the hashtag character is opened up. I believe this is a real live bug in the way links are handled.

    e.g. I have this URL linked in my PPT
    https://www.mycompany.com/#/offering/8EEB4F8F
    If I try to click this link through Box I'm getting sent to https://www.mycompany.com/

  7. Add verification question when moving files in Box Drive using File Explorer

    In the web box.com environment moving folders or files is verified with a question. This is not the case using Box Drive and moiving files or folders using File Explorer.

    A similar question as in box.com and if you delete files in Files Explorer should have been added for moving files in Box Drive. By accident root folder containing hundreds of GB may be moved and hidden into subfolders causing severe problems.

  9. Collections Page as My Homepage

    So as designed, I think "My Collections page" is underutilized. Sure here is the only place you can edit/delete your collections and their titles...but this would be a wonderful place to drive users too as their homepage. Obviously, you all thought of that as well since it can be selected as "My Homepage" but right now I think a lot of folks won't want to because there isn't enough useful information on the basic page.

    Please allow the user to better configure this page or at least have the collections unfurled/unnested. So that each time they go to this page…

  10. I would like to be able to take wide lens photos in Box Capture for iOS.

    I work in the real estate business and used to take a lot of photos with Box Capture for iOS. But, apparently Box Capture only uses the standard lens of my iPhone 11 Pro. Is there a possibility that with an upgrade we will be able to use the wide lens and tele lens also?
    Thanks in advance for your response.

  11. Box Drive Warning When File Path is too Long

    There is a known issue with Box Drive that if a file path is exceeds a character count limit, then the file cannot be opened on desktop, however it can be opened via Box on the web. The issue is, when a user has a file on their desktop, that has a current file path within the character count limits, then moves the file to Box Drive within Windows Explorer and the new path in box exceeds the character limits. As of now, the user can copy and paste into Box Drive and not realize that their new path will…

  13. Notification if content is screenshot

    We have secure content that we send to vendors as "non downloadable" but we also need to know if they take screenshots of that content. We would like functionality that notifies us if a user takes a screenshot of our content.

  15. Smart Access Behavior/スマートアクセスの挙動について

    Smart Access Behavior

    [Restrict managed users] > [Restrict all users except owner/co-owner] is selected, editors and viewers will not be able to move and copy operations.

    Restrict managed users > Restrict all users except owner/co-owner and editors is selected, you will not be able to copy the viewer.

    When using the above Box classification and Shield features (access policy), the settings will be applied to files but not to folders, even if they are set.

    When a user with editor privileges copies a folder, all copies are made.
    I can copy and move folders, but I can't download the files…

  17. Enable different folders to sync on different PC's

    I want to sync a different subset on folders on a different PC. It appears that is not possible. You can only select one set for syncing... and that's it.

  18. File request: add the ability to pre-populate fields

    It would be great if there would be a way to pre-populate the fields of a file request with "known-information" if available.

    This would allow us to reuse a single file request in a portal, but set the metadata on the uploaded documents, based on the current user's context. Content can then be routed in the Box system based on the metadata set.
