  1. alert to administrators and users who move files before 1TB/month/person.

    If we move 1TB/person/month to Box or out of Box, we will not be able to use all of Box without issuing any alerts in advance, but we would like you to send an alert to administrators and users in advance so that we can prevent them from exceeding it.

  2. display order of files/folders in the browser version of Box

    Since the display order of files/folders in the browser version of Box is dynamically changed in the order of new and updated, it is often difficult to find files/folders, so I would like to change the display order like Windows Explorer.

  4. Auto Classification policy does not work when folders are copied or moved

    We would like to improve the behavior so that the auto-classification policy works correctly for files within the folder, even if the folder is copied or moved.

    【Details】
    Currently, the Auto Classification policy works correctly when files are copied or moved, but not when folders are copied or moved.
    For example, if a ".dwg" file is stored in the "Technical Information" folder, there is an automatic classification policy that assigns the label "Technical Information" (not for external collaboration).
    In this case, when a file with a .dwg extension is moved from the "Outside Shared" folder, it is automatically assigned the…

    Unfortunately classifying child items upon move/copy operations of the parent folder is not being considered at this time.

  5. Ability to preview Box shared links such as Box Notes, Box Canvas, images, and videos when pasted

    I would like to see it provide similar functionality to Box Notes.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    Box Notes、Box Canvas、画像、ビデオなどのBox共有リンクを貼り付けたときにプレビューする機能
    <本文>
    Box Notesと同様の機能を提供してほしいと思います。

  6. Remove Box Drive path limit 260 characters in Windows

    Support longer than 260 character paths in Windows for Box Drive as this not a limitation in Windows but a limitation in Box Drive

    Due to Box user rights logic, we often have very long folder paths and file names. Our all workstations are Windows 10/11 workstations. Most of our users prefer the Box Drive solution over the Box.com web app.

    This leads to a situation where often paths in Box Drive are longer than 260 characters.

    Windows supports MAX_PATH which lifts the 260 character restriction: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/maximum-file-path-limitation?tabs=registry

    This instruction is referred in the Box instructions on this topic that state…

    <Request for addition of a function to narrow down groups using the filter conditions of [Users and Groups] in the management console in the new UI>
    In the old UI, it was possible to narrow down the search by group using the "Users and Groups" filter condition in the management console.
    However, with the new UI, it is not possible to narrow down groups using filter conditions.

    We set expiration dates on Box accounts and delete accounts when the application deadline has passed or expired.
    If there were a large number of accounts, the users to be deleted were grouped…

  8. I want to share edit access to a document I uploaded into Box, but I don't have that permission in the folder.

    Please add a button to contact the owner of a BOX file, requesting either permission to add people, or to list people desired to be added. Right now there is nothing I can do to get my coworker access to a collaborative file. I need to put it in a box folder that the team is using, but the whole team is not on the list of editors. I cannot add the team members, and I do not have a good way of contacting the box folder owners. I'd like a button for that purpose.

  9. VS Exposure-type Ransomware

    Suggestion.
    Box Shield classification labels should be able to prohibit downloading via Box desktop (BoxDrive) or via linked apps, even if you are the co-owner or owner.

    Background Threat.
    Currently, the mainstream of ransomware worldwide is not of the encryption type, but of the exposure-type or dual-threat-type.
    Version control functions are not effective against exposure-type and dual-threat ransomware.
    An effective countermeasure against this type of ransomware is to prohibit the downloading of confidential files that should not be disclosed on the dark web.

    Issue to solve.
    Box Shield's no-download access policy and access policy restricting linked apps do not target…

  11. Exclude certified eco-solutions from Device Trust Requirements' setting

    I think that when I enable the setting for "Web App & 3rd Party Apps" in the Device Trust Requirements, the certified EcoSolutions are also restricted.
    We would like to exclude certified eco-solutions from Device Trust Requirements like Box’s applications, so we request specification change to allow "3rdParty Apps" to be specified in a whitelist or blacklist format.

    デバイストラストの設定の際、(Web App & 3rdParty Apps)を有効化した場合、認定エコソリューションについても制限されるとの認識です。
    認定エコソリューションをBox社アプリと同様に制御対象外としたく、「3rdParty Apps」 をホワイトリスト or ブラックリスト形式で指定できるように仕様変更の検討をお願いします。

  12. Hiding your contact info

    Nice touch that not only you don't offer any technical support for your customers, but you don't allow any comments that have Customer Service in the subject line. Way to go.

    Why don't you offer any technical support? This whole website has changed, it's impossible to do tasks now that used to take me a few minutes. This company has gone Way Downhill. PLEASE POST CUSTOMER SUPPORT ACCESS CLEARLY ON YOUR OPENING PAGE OF YOUR WEBSITE. Stop hiding it.

  14. why can't I move files from one box folder to another anymore?

    How about you don't change the way your site operates so I don't waste an hour trying to move a file from one folder to another? I'm a longtime user and this task usually takes me 3 minutes.

  15. Prevent each user from accepting invitations without their consent.

    【Current status】
    Currently, users can enable “Require acceptance when receiving invitations” in their account settings, but the problem is that administrators cannot enforce this.

    【Background】
    Box allows users to easily send invitations to collaborate as long as they have an email address.
    This means that you can be invited to a folder without your knowledge, and a mysterious folder can suddenly appear in your top folder.
    This creates the possibility of accidentally uploading a file or downloading an unwanted file.

    The invitations we receive from outside parties can be restricted by a collaboration whitelist in Box Governance, but we do…

  16. Allow DES files to be synced via Box Drive

    We would like for DES files to be synced to Box cloud via Box Drive. They are currently being ignored in the same way PST files are ignored. Ideally, having the ability to enable/allow exclusions would be ideal.

  17. All Files External Shares

    Within the All Files view it would be nice to be able to separate and collapse the External Collaborations (Grey Folders) to the internal folders. In addition, make the separation collapsible to clean up the interface and provide a better de-linearisation between internal and external content.

  18. Files and folder restore requests to be able to be restored to a different path from the original path

    Users can request Box Support to restore deleted files and folders identified in a User Activity Report (UAR) to a different path than the original. This allows users to review and compare folder structures for any missing files and folders, instead of having restored items appended with (1) to the original paths when they have been already recreated.

    If I do a bulk sign to 100's of people and the window for automatic reminders is passed, I want the ability to due a bulk reminder to everyone still in progress. I can filter to everyone still in progress. Just add an option to send reminder to all selected.

  20. Request for improvement of Includes Subfolders feature in User Activity Report

    ( Japanese follows English)
    The support article is as follows, but I would like to request that the Includes Subfolders feature also works and outputs the data in “View” for the following two reasons.
    The report output screen does not show the fact that the feature does not work in “View”, so there is a possibility of misunderstanding.
    It takes longer to complete [Run] than [View],


    Warning:
    When the Includes Subfolders feature is on, the View option doesn't work - it doesn't pull events in the subfolders.

    ・[表示]では出力されないことがレポート出力の画面からは分からないので勘違いをする可能性がある点
    ・[表示]と比較して[実行]の完了までは時間が掛かる点
