  1. Trash

    Can we have the ability to preview files in the trash can like we can in the web browser? Having all of the trashed files listed by name but with no way to preview makes it harder for me to identify the content I may want to permanently delete or restore. Also, can we please have the ability to know the folder path the deleted file will be restored to before restoring the file? I have to hunt down files after I restore them as there is no easy way for me to know where they are going to be…

  2. Uploading files with exactly the same hash value on BoxDrive should not be recorded as a 'copy' in the user activity report

    If I upload a new file on Box Drive and then upload the same file (with the same hash value) again, the server copies the first uploaded file to reduce load and the user activity report records it as a copy. Even if these two file names are different!
    In this case, if I have a workflow triggered by 'upload' in Box Relay, the trigger may not work because the event is considered a copy.
    This behaviour is a limitation of the product specification, but I would like a fix so that it is treated as an upload.

  4. Collaboration expiration notice to the inviter

    Only owners and co-owners will be notified when collaboration invitations expire.
    I would be happy if this could be delivered to the "inviter" as well.
    The person who is most concerned about this is the inviter as host.
    The inviter is the one who can decide whether to extend the time.

  5. Shortcuts for Box Notes

    Shortcuts don't work in Box Notes when Caps Lock is on.
    For your reference, in Excel, it works even if Caps Lock is on.
    We hope shortcuts works fine regardless of Caps Lock status.

  6. Empty (not delete) folder by Box Relay folder action

    It would be great to have a relay folder action which empties a folder. Currently folder and files can only be deleted.
    We use Box folders for mail-2-box actions, and very ofter users simply forget to remove a file from the folder. I want to achive a time-controlled trigger which empties the respective folders ever night. Many thanks.

  7. When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder. At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times, but is it

    When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder.

    At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times,

    but is it possible to set it so that only new files are uploaded based on the timestamp?

    Because I want to stop unnecessary version upgrades.

    In the case of FTP, there is a "mirroring upload" function,

    which uploads only new files based on the timestamp.

  10. preview text in monospaced font

    It looks like the preview of text files is trying hard to show them in a monospaced font--it wraps the content in both <pre> and <code>--but there seems to be a stray CSS rule that overrides them to make it match the rest of the page instead:

    .be *{font-family:inherit}

    Sure would be nice if this could be fixed to display text files in monospace as seems to be intended.

  11. To be able to set their preferred default search to either "Everywhere" or in the folder you're in, depending on their own workflow.

    From what I'm reading, I am not alone. I would like to be able to set mypreferred default search to the "Everywhere" option instead of the current folder. Others prefer the folder they are currently in, but it should be up to the user to determine what they want it defaulted to. Not what the develepors think everyone wants.

  12. Notify person needing a copy that others still need to sign

    Since there is no portal/no way to know when another member as sent a signature for tracking and workflow purposes, people need to be aware that signatures have gone out.

  13. Specify multiple users at the same time when specifying users in folder and file reports/フォルダとファイルのレポートでユーザーを指定する際に複数のユーザーを同時に指定できるようにしたい

    After revoking a free account, you will need to delete or change the ownership of any items that are owned by individuals in accordance with the operation of your tenant.
    At this time, we would like to be able to specify all users who have rolled up items in a tenant in a folder and file report, and identify items that are owned by individual users.
    The current functionality allows you to specify only one name when outputting a report.
    If there are many users who have performed tenant rollups, you can specify each user to search for items that…

  14. Ability to select specific shared links and delete them all together

    Sometimes, users create shared links and then leave them unattended.
    As part of our inventory, we delete unnecessary shared links based on the shared link report.
    However, in order to delete them, we need to access each file from a browser.
    We would like a mechanism to delete multiple specific shared links at once.
    If there are multiple shared links in the same folder, I would like the ability to check them off and delete them all together.

    In Japanese:
    共有リンクをユーザが作成した後、放置されていることがあります。
    棚卸の一環として、共有リンクレポートをもとに不要な共有リンクを削除していますが、
    それらを削除するためにはブラウザから各ファイルにアクセスする必要があります。
    複数の特定の共有リンクを一括で削除できる仕組みが欲しい。
    もし同一フォルダ内に複数の共有リンクがある場合は、チェックを付けてそれらをまとめて削除できる機能が欲しい。

  15. Ability to have users enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link without being logged in.

    In the case of a public shared link, there is no way to verify the user who manipulated the file if it was manipulated while the user was not logged in.
    However, we would like to verify by whom the shared file was downloaded.
    Since the file sharing partners are unspecified, we would like to share files via a shared link rather than through collaboration.
    Request the ability to track the operating user by having them enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link in an un-logged-in state.

    (日本語)
    <共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際に名前やメールアドレスを入力できる機能>
    「リンクを知っている全員」に設定した共有リンクの場合、未ログイン状態で操作された場合はファイルを操作したユーザーを確認する手段がありません。
    しかし、共有したファイルが誰によってダウンロードされているか確認したいと考えています。
    ファイルの共有相手は不特定多数のため、コラボレーションではなく共有リンクでファイルを共有したいと考えています。
    共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際には名前やメールアドレスを入力させて、操作ユーザーを追える機能をリクエストします。

  16. Request for improvement of Box mobile app problem when enlarging image data.

    This is a feature improvement request regarding the preview function of Box mobile app.

    When using Box mobile app to preview and enlarge scanned paper or photographed image data on a mobile device,

    the quality of the image data is poorer than when previewing and enlarging image data in Box GUI operated with a web browser, and small text cannot be displayed.

    Reviewing PDFs of A3 size architectural drawings or checking details of diagrams in manuals is inconvenient with Box mobile app.

    Image quality remains constant even when previewing image data using Box GUI in a web browser and enlarging…

  17. Box Sign: Document ID on the header/footer of the document

    We would like to add the Document ID number on the header or footer of the documents when we finished signing with Box Sign. We understand that the hard copy is not required as long as the sign is done with Box Sign. But, if we print out the signed document, we can not see any evidence that the signed page is related to the other pages. In the DocuSign, I can see such function.

  18. Enhanced Permissions for Locked Accounting Periods in Box for Netsuite Integration

    It would be helpful for the integration to change all permissions to Viewer for transactions in a locked accounting period. This would ensure data retention. I realize we could use "Viewer Uploader", however, accountants need delete permissions (i.e. "Editor") until the accounting period is closed.

  19. Sometimes when working with AutoCAD files, the external references in the CAD files lose their path.

    It would be great if the external references (external files) are kept in the CAD file and not lose their paths. (I do wonder if this is happening because the path is too long).
