  1. I want to have a download link for folders

    I want to be able to create a shareable link that will automatically start a folder download when clicked.
    So the user will click a link and the folder will download automatically to their computer.

  2. 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.

    「Box Relay」使用時に、ログイン情報から情報を取得できる機能を実装して欲しい。
    <本文>
    現在「Box Relay」を使用して、ファイル名のリネームを行う際に、メタデータを使用する事ができます。
    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。
    (メールアドレス、氏名、会社名、等々…)
    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。
    ご検討の程よろしくお願い申し上げます。

  4. 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.

  5. heatmap

    Would love a heatmap report/feature that shows how often particular folders (or files) are accessed (over a specific timeframe). This way you could quickly identify folders/data you may not need to keep any longer. This would allow you to identify folders storing stale or useless data that could be cluttering up everyone's view. You could tie this into policies that could auto-delete/archive folders that have not been accessed within a certain time frame.

  6. Please add a customizable setting for the [administrator email address] section.

    If a user tries to use an application that is not allowed by the tenant, the following error screen will appear.


    Disabled by Administrator
    This application cannot be used because it is not allowed by your Box administrator.
    If you have questions, please contact your administrator at [administrator email address].


    Typically, he/she is expected to contact the email address provided on this screen.
    However, due to company operations, we do not accept inquiries at the email address listed on this screen.
    This creates confusion because he/she sends an email and does not receive a response from the administrator.

    Therefore, we…

  7. New Shared Link Setting for OTP to Specific Email Addresses

    Proposing a new Shared Link setting or type that allows users to send a shared link to a specific email address which requires a OTP password, similar to the authentication used when an individual is sent a Sign Request via Box Sign.

    This would allow for a simpler, more secure user experience when sharing one-off links than password-protecting a public link.

  8. Request that multiple file requests not be created when creating a File Request using the API

    When creating file requests using the API, multiple file requests can be created independently for one folder.
    In order to avoid this phenomenon, I would like an API to be prepared to retrieve the created file request ID from the folder.
    Or please provide some other workaround.

  9. Allow admins to promote a secondary email to a primary

    Admins and co-admins need to be provided with a way, both in the admin console and via API, to promote a secondary email address to a primary email address while the "Prevent users from changing their primary email address" control is enabled. For security the swap should still be approved by the user. The current workaround to this problem is inefficient, as it requires the change to be rolled back and the user to make the adjustment themselves. When a co-admin rolls the change back, logs in as the user, and selects "Make Primary" next to a secondary email address,…

  10. Viewer-Uploader Copy Experience

    As part of our workflows, we copy template forms into other folders. Our users are not all comfortable using keyboard shortcuts to copy the forms so everyone needs to be an editor in order to use the UI to copy and paste.

    We would like to see the UI for copy introduced for viewer-uploaders.

  11. 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.

  12. I wanted to be able to edit/upload to folders via editable shared links.

    Ability for people outside the company to be able to upload to folders via an editable shared link. Currently this is only available for files and not folders.

  15. use @mention in the Office suites of software (Words, Excel, PowerPoint)

    Currently, we are able to do commenting of the document in Box by using the @mention. But we are not able to do the same when we are editing document in the native Ms Office software eg Words, Excel & PowerPoint. The @mention does not work.

    Would like to have the same feature when we are working in the native document?

  17. Workflow to delete all files in a folder on a schedule

    We have setup request folders we send to external users to upload files. Currently we need to manually review the contents of each folder and remove any uploaded files before sharing.
    We would like a modification to the delete workflow that would allow us to delete the contents of a folder. That way we can setup a scheduled workflow to remove all files in a folder at the start of each week. This way we can reuse the request links and know the contents will be deleted after a week.

  18. Shield Classifications Following Content in Drive

    In Box Drive, the classifications do not follow the content. For ITAR customers, I can copy a file from ITAR folders (with a shield policy) to another folder for non-ITAR content and share it without restrictions.

    This works in the web app, but not in Drive.

  19. Enhancing Box with ERP System Integration

    Hi everyone,

    I’ve been using Box for a while now and appreciate its collaborative features and secure storage solutions. However, I believe there’s potential for Box to evolve further by integrating more deeply with ERP systems.

    As businesses continue to adopt digital solutions, ERP systems play a critical role in managing and automating core business processes like finance, supply chain, and human resources. By enhancing Box's integration capabilities with ERP platforms, such as SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics, users could:

    Streamline Document Management: Automatically sync and organize documents related to invoices, contracts, and reports directly from the ERP system to…
