  1. Video Player controls are blocking my content for review

    When we send a client a video to review, the Box player controls cover the video making it difficult or impossible to correctly review. This is especially true for captions/graphics.

    Please move the controls off of the video so it doesn't block the content.

  3. I would like Box Sign to have more flexible permission settings.

    When Box Sign is enabled for a user, he/she can send sign requests, check the contents of requests shared with them, and view their inbox.
    However, there are users for whom I do not want to allow sending sign requests, but I do want them to be able to check their inbox.

    For example, our executives who frequently approve or sign documents in Box Sign but do not need to send signature requests by themselves.
    I believe it is a potential security risk to give users the authority to send signature requests even though they do not need it.

    Currently,…

  5. 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?

  6. 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.

  7. 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).

  8. 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?

  9. 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}}
    {{endtablerow}}

  10. 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.

  11. 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…

  12. 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…

  15. 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.

  17. 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]])

  18. 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.

    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 Sync

  20. 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…
