extract report on tag
I would like to extract a report to see what kind of tags are attached to each item.
We would like to do this because we are planning to monitor the access of each document by categorizing each document into different tags like "Production innovation", "quality assurance", "inventory reduction", "productivity improvement", "design enhancement".1 vote -
Ability to save/copy to my local box when a public link is shared with me
When someone shares a public link to me via Box, I am unable to add/copy the file to my local Box. I have to download from the web then reupload to Box.com. Even though I am signed into Box.com I am unable to save/copy locally to my file structure. (conversely, if someone shares with my box email directly I then see it in my Recents, but this is not always the case)

Box Relay Outcome for applying current date upon a file upload
Currently with Box Relay and a Metadata date field you can set a date to be applied upon a file or folder upload. However, you can not select 'current date'. It will only apply a date that you have selected at the time of crafting the relay. It would be great to have an automation to set a date based on when the file was uploaded to Box.

Improve on Download log in the Activity Log
Currently when trying to access to a file that does not have a collaboration right, it is registered as download in the activity report.
I have heard the support team that this is expected behaviour due to the backend work to read the thumbnail.
However, when looking at the activity log, it looks like a user has "downloaded" that file even though they do not have access to it so would like the report to not show "download" but something else to know that the user hasn't actually downloaded that file.1 vote -
Use Relay to copy or move based on filename
I would love to use box relay for a simple workflow. Is it possible to build a relay workflow that when a file is uploaded to a folder to look for a phrase in the filename and copy/move to a subfolder?
Ex: Uploaded Filename contains the word "Home" -> Move to Home folder
or Uploaded Filename contains the word "Work"-> move to work folder

Allow Shield Location Rule Restriction By Folder
Currently Shield's Location Restriction rule is applied to the entire EID by user/groups. It would be helpful to be able to set this up by specific folder(s) or folder structure.
Ex. Team A is not allowed to view specific content while in Location X, however Team B is able to. Currently the restriction would be set on the EID level and both teams would be under this restriction.
We could exclude group B or other groups from the rule however Group A would still be restricted from accessing other content within the EID.

Open in Box Drive
Ability to click a link that opens the current web box folder on the local Box Drive. This would allow for quick local file editing when you navigated to the folder via web Box.

Unable to move Box files to new hard drive
I added a larger, secondary drive to my computer, and I'd like to move the Box Drive and off line files to this second drive. This is because the C-drive is 90% full while the new terabyte drive is almost empty. I need to free up space on the C-drive. I was told "customizing the Box Drive folder does not change where Box Drive stores its app data or cached files, including items marked for offline use, so customizing the folder will not save disk space if you relocate the folder to another drive".

View total Folder size in web app without requiring an Admin run a report.
Users and Content managers require the ability to see the size of a folder they have access permissions to without having to reach out to an admin and run a report.
We are aware of the admins being able to run reports, as well as users being able to see the individual file sizes, but when multiple files need to be downloaded or handled via folder box user needs to contact us on the admin side to do any cursory decision making or review hundred and sometimes thousands of files individually just to simply get a total file size of…

Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content
Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.

Vision Pro
Boxer posting on behalf of a customer:
Box for Apple Vision Pro is not using the same API as the iPad app and doesn't show up in the 'Files' browser.
Because of this oversight none of the Apple apps can use files in the box browser the way they do on iPadOS. No collaboration or work on files in box is possible.
Not sure why you would bother making a Vision Pro app, is it only to view files?
Please pull the Vision Pro app from the store and allow us to use the iPadOS app on apple vision. I'm…

Option to overwrite metadata values when moving file
We would like the option for a metadata attribute to be overwritten automatically when moved to a folder with cascading metadata enabled for the same metadata template.
Here's our use case:
Some of our organization content currently sits in user folders. People accessing that content have no way of knowing where it sits, and therefore can't take action to move it to the desired location. Applying a metadata template indicating if content sits within a user or an organizational folder would be a great way to make this visible to users. With the current behavior, we can't do that, as…1 vote -
Currently the Adobe Sign integration with Box produces multiple files for each stage of the sign process instead of saving 1 single file
Currently the Adobe Sign integration produces multiple files for each stage of the sign process (e.g. sent, in-progress, complete). It would be great if those files could be versions of a single file.

Box Drive Apple Finder notification and not just small amber sign for sync failure.
Users are regularly experiencing issues with multiple file not syncing (incorrect naming or spaces etc) but the only notification to them is a small amber sign on the files syncing which they miss. Please can we have a larger warning in Apples notifications or Finder window similar to a local server error?

Auto-Save All Zoom Recordings to Box
We need a setting at the account level that allows us to enable all recordings to automatically be saved to Box (regardless of which type of Zoom plan we have). Being required to manually toggle on the save function during each individual meeting leaves too much room for error (so easy to forget - especially because the toggle isn't on the main zoom screen). Google currently has an option to do this with a Zapier Integration. If you could set up Box in a similar way (or in a way that doesn't require Zapier at all), Box would be the…
