  1. Ability to distinguish logs with classification labels added or removed from the report.

    The logs of adding and deleting classification labels will be output from the User Activity Report as "Add Template" and "Delete Template".
    However, since the details are blank, it is not possible to determine from the user activity report whether the logs actually add or remove classification labels.
    Therefore, I would like to see the addition and deletion of classification labels added to the items as "Add Classification Label" and "Delete Classification Label" instead of "Add Template" and "Delete Template".
    If it is difficult, I would like to see it placed in the detail column so that we can distinguish…

  2. Allow BoxNotes to add hyperlinks to images as well as text

    On a normal website, you can click on a banner image to skip to the link, but BoxNotes does not allow you to do this, which is inconvenient.
    I want to add hyperlinks to images as well as text.

    in Japanese
    BoxNotesでテキストだけでなく画像にもハイパーリンクを追加できるようにしてほしい。
    通常のウェブサイトではバナー画像をクリックしてリンク先に飛ぶこともできるが、BoxNotesではそれができない。
    テキストだけでなく、画像にもハイパーリンクを追加したい。

  3. zip file decompression function

    Zip files cannot currently be unzipped in Box.
    We would like to add additional functionality because it would reduce the risk of virus infection and improve user convenience by allowing users to unzip Zip files in Box without downloading them.
    It would be even better if you could also support Zip files with passwords.

  4. When posting a shared link generated from Box onto Teams, the thumbnail display is slow.

    When sharing a link from Box on Teams, there is approximately a 7-second delay before the thumbnail is displayed.

    Improve the functionality to allow posting without waiting for the thumbnail to display. Currently, if a post is made without waiting for the thumbnail, it does not showing up.

    To prevent posts without thumbnails, the following options are requested:

    Implement a control mechanism that grays out the “post button” until the thumbnail is displayed, preventing the ability to post without a thumbnail.

    Enhance the functionality to retroactively after posting, even if it was done without waiting for the thumbnail to appear.

  5. Get Rid of Waterfall Permissions - Allow Subfolder Security To Be Set Differently

    It is absolutely ridiculous that a company as large as Box is using waterfall permissions for all enterprise accounts.

    In a business environment, it is absolutely necessary to be able to set specific permissions on subfolders within a large data folder that all users have access to. This is a simple feature included with every other cloud file provider we've ever used.

    Needs to be included ASAP.

  6. HASANY/HASALL implementation of metadata queries / メタデータクエリのHASANY/HASALLの実装

    I would like to implement HASANY/HASALL for metadata queries.
    We have implemented it in the released functionality with reference to the Metadata Query Toolkit, but suddenly it is no longer available and we are having trouble. The answer was that there is no alternative.

    https://cloud.app.box.com/s/zbit25jyv5xxv0649nngz0rckofjludx#p=9

  7. Synchronize Single Files in folders

    We want the ability to synchronize individual files in a folder to the desktop rather than entire folders, allowing us to accelerate what is available in the WebUI faster.

  8. Ability to display groups on a single line in the Collaboration Report

    The Collaboration report shows duplicate information for the same user if the user belongs to more than one group or if the individual and group collaborate on the same folder.
    As part of the inventory, we want to extract the access rights set for a folder, but it is inconvenient if user information is output in duplicate.
    When accessing a folder and viewing the collaboration information directly, the group is specified to be displayed on a single line.
    Please create an option to display them on a single line for reports as well.

    In Japanese:
    コラボレーションレポートでは、ユーザーが複数のグループに所属している場合や、
    個人とグループで同じフォルダにコラボレーションしている場合、同じユーザーの情報が重複して表示されます。
    棚卸の一環として、フォルダに設定されているアクセス権の抽出をしたいが、ユーザー情報が重複して出力されると不便です。
    フォルダにアクセスしてコラボレーション情報を直接見る際は、グループは一行で表示される仕様です。
    レポートの場合も一行で表示させるオプションを作って下さい。

  9. Lock files when editing them from a shared link that all users can edit.すべてのユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクからファイル編集を行う際にファイルをロックをする。

    When editing from a shared link that can be edited by a user who does not have editing or access permissions, the file is not locked when starting the edit.
    Therefore, when saving files on Box, duplicate files with the same name are created.
    To avoid this behavior, I would like to be able to lock files even if users do not have editing privileges.

    (日本語)
    編集権限およびアクセス権限を持たないユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクから編集する際に編集開始時にファイルにロックがかけられません。
    したがって、Box上にファイルを保存する際に重複して同一の名前のファイルが作成される動作となります。
    この動作を避けるため、編集権限を持たないユーザーでもファイルロックをかけられるようにして欲しいです。

  10. Ability to tag groups

    I want a function like Teams' "tag".
    Currently, only individuals can mention comments in the data saved in the box,
    I would like to be able to mention in groups.
    Can't you make better use of groups in your management console?
    One of the features of box is that multiple people can edit the same data at the same time, and there are also convenient functions such as comment fields and mention functions.
    Please consider further improving usability.

    Teamsの「タグ」のような機能が欲しい。
    現状、box内に保存したデータ内のコメントにメンションできるのは個人だけだが、
    グループでメンションをできるようにしてほしい。
    管理コンソールのグループを上手く活用できないでしょうか?
    boxには一つのデータを複数人同時編集が可能という特徴があり、コメント欄とメンション機能という便利な機能もあります。
    さらに使い勝手を良くするために検討をお願いします。

  11. The ability to resize or delete the astronomical images on the Relay notifications.

    In its current state, the astronomical image is so large that it is difficult to see the text underneath.
    Since there is no need to display images, we are requesting the implementation of this function.

    現在の状態では天体画像が大きいことで下にある本文の確認がしづらいです。
    画像を表示させる必要性もないため機能の実現を求めます。

  12. Box Drive app more easily accessible

    It would be convenient to have an install Box link located in the Help menu or my Account icon similar to Dropbox. Even still, when I navigate to the Box App Center I have to go to Box Drive, scroll down to the respective OS and install. It sounds tedious but I needed to install Box and Dropbox on a bunch of computers and was reminded how the Box user experience still doesn't hold up to Dropbox. Neither is perfect and both have great features but I always feel like Box makes me take steps I don't need or doesn't…

  13. Ability to Name Scheduled Reports

    Add the ability to name the scheduled report. Currently the report is delivered as a csv file with the generic name of the report being run ie: "User Activity" and a date/time stamp. It would be very helpful to have the ability to type the name of the report so when it is delivered to me or my team the name is meaningful, and we readily know the content of the report. For example, if we have multiple reports scheduled, but they all arrive with the name "User Activity" we must open each one to determine what the content is…

  14. Ability to set "Updated" as default in search results

    Search results can be sorted by "relevance" or "Updated".
    However, the default is "Relevance".
    Since "Updated" is used more frequently than "Relevance", please implement the ability to specify the default on the user side or in the tenant settings.

    検索結果は、「関連度順」または「更新日」に並び替えることが可能です。
    しかし、デフォルトは「関連度順」になっています。
    「関連度順」よりも「更新日」を頻繁に利用するため、ユーザー側やテナント設定でデフォルトを指定できる機能を実装してください。

  15. Add keyword conditions to search filter.

    Currently, possible to search by combining Boolean operators and keywords, it is a hurdle for users to use without knowledge.
    It would be easier to search if the search filter had a narrowing criterion such as "includes ~" or " not include ~".

    (日本語)
    検索フィルタにキーワードの条件指定を追加する
    現在ブール演算子とキーワードを組み合わせることで検索することは可能ですが、知識がないとユーザーが使用するのはハードルが高いです。
    検索フィルタに”~を含む”、”~を含まない”のような絞り込み条件があればもっと簡単に検索ができます。

  17. Sort metadata templates / メタデータテンプレートの並び替え

    Metadata templates are arranged in ascending order based on "the template key".
    "The template key" often do not match with custom templates written in Japanese, so this specification is inconvenient for users looking for these.

    We would like the administrator to be able to freely change the display order in the Admin Console.

    (IN JAPANESE)
    現在メタデータテンプレートは、テンプレートキーに基づいた昇順で並ぶ仕様となっています。
    日本語のカスタムテンプレートとそれに紐づくテンプレートキーは、名称が一致しないためユーザーがテンプレートを探す際に不便です。
    管理者が自由に表示順を変更できるようにしてください。

  18. I would like you to implement a function that allows you to obtain information from login information when using "Box Relay".

    Currently, you can use metadata when renaming files using Box Relay.
    Similarly, I would like to be able to use the signed-in user's My Profile information as the value of "Available Variables".
    (email address, name, company name, etc.)
    Being able to use the information of the signed-in user allows you to obtain reliable information, which I think will improve convenience in various ways.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    同じ様に、「利用可能な変数」の値として、サインインしているユーザーのマイプロフィール情報を使用できる様にして頂きたいです。

    サインインしているユーザーの情報を使える事は、確実な情報を取得する事ができ、様々な点で利便性が上がると思います。
