Importing data using Box Shuttle via an SFTP share link
We are provided access to data stored in external customers archives via FTP/SFTP credentials which we need to migrate into Box.
It would be great to be able to migrate this data directly into box using Box Shuttle.
Would it be possible to add SFTP as one of the pick options on the source system screen in Shuttle when creating a new Job where we could add in URL, Username, Password, Port, etc?

Adding Font Colors
Please add gray as a font color option in Box Hubs, similar to Box Notes.
The gray color is very useful for representing supplemental information.2 votes -
AI query results resources
One enhancement requested by a customer is within the Box AI query window. The documents from which information is pulled be linked within the response alongside the relevant text and at the end of the response (image 1), rather than be listed only at the end of the response (image 2).

File Status now showing in Windows File Explorer
The problem shows up after installing the box app on my Windows pc. In my Windows file explorer, I cannot see the status of my files. I cannot know if the document is already available or needs to be downloaded first before use. And I cannot clear local downloaded file caches to release some space. How can I know the file status?

In Doc Gen
In Doc Gen I would like to be able to conditionally display an item in a list of items based on evaluation of an item property value or values using the standard evaluation rules. For example,
{{tablerow contact in case.contacts}}
{{if contact.includeContact == "Yes"}}
Dear {{contact.firstName}} {{contact.lastName}}
{{endIf}}

Rejections on an approval task
I want everyone who was assigned an approval task to still be able to record their decision after someone rejects the document. Right now as soon as one person rejects, the approval box is grayed out for everyone remaining and the task notification for those people is removed. Even though box sends out an email as well, most of my team only relies on the box notification center out of convenience.

Flexible IP Restrictions: Require Strong IdP Auth Rather Than Immediate Block
■Request
We would like Box’s conditional access capability to be enhanced so that, in environments where IP address restrictions are enabled, the IdP’s (e.g., HENNGE) authentication method can be switched based on the source IP.■Specific example (use case):
When accessing from an allowed IP: Log in with standard SSO (e.g., ID/password).
When accessing from a non-allowed IP: Require strong authentication at the IdP, such as a client certificate, in order to log in. Example: Box requests and validates the corresponding assurance level (AuthnContext) and permits login only when the requirement is met. If the requirement cannot be met, explicitly…5 votes -
Open Microsoft Office in embedded Office app by default
If I have, say, an Excel file in my Box account, I can right-click on it, choose Open with..., then choose Excel Online, and it'll open up in the embedded version of Excel. That's wonderful! However, since I almost always want to open my Excel files that way, I'd really like an option to have that happen automatically when I open the file without right-clicking on it. This would save me a bunch of clicks over time.
(Closely related, I'd also like to get rid of the "will open in Microsoft Excel Online in a new browser window" alert, but…

Improvement of search within the Hub
We would like to search for information within texts in the Hub, not only from files and folders in the Hub.
Currently, to enable information search within the Hub, we compile all information in Box Notes and add it to the Hub. However, this results in longer access times for users. We would like to improve the issue where supplementary texts written within pages are not searchable.1 vote -
Reporting on Box Desktop Applications
Would like to have a report on managed users and the last reported version of Box Drive/Box Tools/Box for Office they are using and if they have any active sync errors to proactively help them.

Expand Column for Files and Folders Report
Sometimes I have users who ask for a files and folder report on a particular folder. After I receive the report I have to create an additional column for a link to the file/folder. I just use the existing information in the report, replace all F with f in the Item Type Column, and concatenate function in excel to create this. Would just like this to be a native addition for the report.
Excel function: =CONCAT("https://box.com/",[@[Item Type]],"/",[@[Item ID]])

Use relay to move files to an archived folder based on a metadata date condition
We have a relay workflow that accepts a file via "File Request" (Trigger) and has a metadata values attached, we want the file to be moved to another folder (Archive) based on the expiration date on the incoming metadata template.
In a subsequent trigger we are unable to make the expiration date condition of the metadata "if older than a year" only a set date picked from the calendar. It would be great to have a custom condition based on the values accepted on the metadata templates.1 vote -
Search function in file explorer window does not function in BOX DRIVE--FIX THIS PLEASE
Search function in file explorer window does not function in BOX DRIVE--FIX THIS PLEASE?
It's soooo bad that my boss will not use drive, reverted to and will only use sync do to the lack of search capability in windows explorer. He threatens frequently to move us to a different platform because of it. It is absolutely unacceptable to not have the file explorer search function with BOX DRIVE work identically to the way it workson BOX Sync1 vote -
Confirmation Dialog for DAdd Confirmation Prompt Before Uploading Files in Box Web torag-and-Drop File Uploads to Prevent Accidental Uploads
While a similar request has been made for Box Drive, I believe that the same risk of accidental file uploads exists when using Box via the web interface. In particular, there is a concern about the unintended upload of important files to the wrong folder, which could result in information leaks. Unlike bulk operations, even a single mistaken upload of a sensitive file can have serious consequences.
Therefore, I would like to request the addition of a confirmation message or dialog before uploading files in Box (web version), especially when using drag-and-drop or other upload methods, to help prevent accidental…

Allow separate notification messages for task assignment and completion
Currently, when creating a general or approval task, the same notification message is sent both when the task is assigned and when it is completed.
As a result, recipients of the message can sometimes become confused.I would like the ability to set different notification messages for task assignment and task completion.
〈タスク割り当て時と完了時の通知メッセージを個別に設定したい〉
現在、一般タスクや承認タスクを設定した際、タスクの割り当て時と完了時の両方で、
同じ通知メッセージが送信されます。そのため、メッセージの受信者が混乱してしまうことがあります。タスク割り当て時用とタスク完了時用で、それぞれ異なる通知メッセージを設定できるようにしてほしいです。

bulk update metadata
For metadata driven relays, it would useful from the list view to be able to multiselect files within a folder and set the meta value for a particular field for all the selected files.

Notifications + Override ability for Folder Owners when a folder is Deleted by a Collaborator
When in Box Drive, collaborators can inadvertently delete a large folder, even if they don't own that folder. Before the folder is able to be deleted, the owner of the folder should receive a notification with a warning (e.g. Jane Doe is about to delete your files) and the owner should have the ability to override the action. In the case where the Owner is no longer at the company, there should be an Admin warning and ability to override the action.

Disable Public Links for Box Hubs Specifically
Box Hubs permissions are tied to global shared link settings which makes it impossible to block public links without disabling it across all documents and folders. I would like to be able to specifically disable public links for Box Hubs as the risk profile is far greater than the normal file/folder.
Our worst case scenario is that someone accidentally provides a publicly accessible link to a Hub which would "break" permissions for all files and folders added to it.
