  1. Metadata in reports

    I would greatly appreciate it if you could assist me in creating a report for the documents within the folder. My goal is to see all the metadata associated with each of the files uploaded to that particular folder. Your help in this matter would be truly valuable.

  3. Ability to use the client share link with templates

    I would love for the client share link you can create for individual folders to have the ability to be built from templates. Having to add logos and file descriptions and additional file categories to every client upload link can take some serious time. This should be able to be streamlined by adding the ability to copy from templates so that clients can easily drag and drop files/folders into the correct category and with the added benefit of feeling more professional with company logos already set up for the links

  5. Ability to specify wildcard folder in folder path for folder event trigger

    Here's the scenario. Box folder partitioning is recommended for scalability when the number of items (files or folders) within a parent (root) folder will exceed 15000. The Salesforce default integration creates a folder for each account under a 'Accounts ' Parent folder and typically number of customers will exceed 15000 for large organizations. With the Box Partitioning flow (available in the Managed package for SF), folder partitions can be based on using starting letter of the account (e.g. partition folder will be named AFolder). OR customized to have folders based on Year/Month of creation e.g. PartitionYYYYMM under the…

  6. Shared Link creation doesn't automatically add user to folder when adding file in Box for Office in Outlook

    When adding a file to an email in Outlook and using the Box for Office integration to upload it to Box and create a shared link, you have the option to make the link visible to Invited Users Only. However, when doing this, it does not add all users as collaborators to the file so they can access the shared link. Ideally, the integration should add the users CC'd in the email ass collaborators if they are not collabed already so that they can access the Invited People only link

  7. Option to choose Can View or Can View and Download Outlook pop up

    Currently there is no option edit shared link permissions (between Can View, or Can View and Download, or Can View Download and Edit). In order to do this, a user has to go to box and make those settings changes. It would be a better user experience to be able to make those changes in the Box for Office Outlook UI directly.

  8. Box Drive - Prompt Users to Lock Files When Opening Files from Box Drive

    For Box Drive, it would be nice to have the option to lock files when you take them offline. For example, when a you choose "Make Available Offline", Box could prompt you with "Do you want to lock these offline files?" So, you remember to lock the files while you still have online access to the them.

  10. Clickable link in BoxSign message

    Inside Boxsign view detail windows, the message formatted in plain text, that resulted the url cannot be click directly from that window, need to copy and paste to new window.
    If the link is clickable, it would be better.

  11. Box for iOS Annotations

    The pen and and marker options when using the Annotations feature within Box for iOS is limited as the lines are often too thick and obscure information on the documents used by our customers.

    The suggestion here is to add a line thickness slider for both the marker and pen options so that users can experience the same pencil thin annotated lines in the Box for iOS Mobile Application as they do when annotating via Box.com

  12. Allow End Users to run a Collaborations Report for Content they Own

    As organizations scale, IT Admins may want to enable end users to manage their own content and who has access to this content. Users being able to run a collaborations report and/or a folder and files report on content that they own is important for enabling users to manage their own content collabs so that these responsibilities can be distributed, and don't necessarily fall solely on the admin and security teams who manage Box to audit content and associated collaborations. End users that own content should be empowered with all the tools necessary to manage who has access to content…

  15. API that facilitates multiple folders creation

    At present, we have the capability to create individual folders from salesforce. Is it possible for Box to offer us an API that facilitates multiple folders creation in one transaction?

  16. Can Box provide us an API which allows us to clone a folder along with its sub folders?

    We have a predefined folder structure as a template, and we'd like to create new folders following this template's hierarchy. As Salesforce imposes limits on external system callouts, if the Box team could offer an API for this purpose, it would enable us to accomplish this task

    On a normal website, you can click on a banner image to skip to the link, but BoxNotes does not allow you to do this, which is inconvenient.

  18. Delete empty/orphaned parent folders.

    Please add the ability to delete empty parent folders that have reached a deletion threshold.

  19. Change primary email address but not login user

    We are a large University with affiliate organizations leveraging our Box service. These affiliate organizations do not use the University primary email address domain.
    Specifically for BoxSign, we would like be able to change some users' primary email address to their linked email address WITHOUT changing their email address used for login into Box (because they have to use SSO and 2FA).

    Would you be able to implement a fix or workaround for this scenario? Thank you.

  20. API Calls to Get Folder ID from File Request URL

    Currently the only way to get the Folder ID that's associated for a File Request URL that exists is to know the Folder ID or the File Request ID that you're looking for before you do. Its easy if the user says this is the folder, but if they only have the link you're forced to run User Activity reports to attempt to locate what was created, even harder if you don't know the original user who created the file request and they don't know the folder.

    It would be extremely beneficial to be able to make an API call…
