  1. List of files detected as abnormal downloads

    Content: Currently, Box Shield cannot output a list of files detected as abnormal downloads, so a report must be output and presented to the user for confirmation.
       If there are a large number of detections, it is not practical to check them one by one.I would like to see a feature implemented that allows you to check a list of affected downloads if an abnormal download is detected.

    件名:異常なダウンロードとして検出されたファイルの一覧について
    内容:現状のBox Shieldの異常なダウンロードで検知されたファイルは一覧出力ができず、レポートを出力してユーザーへ確認する必要があります。
       検知数が多い場合、1つずつ確認するのは現実的ではありません。
       異常なダウンロードとして検知された場合、対象一覧を確認できる機能の実装を希望します。

  2. Unable to open the Online MS Office Excel Add-in selector window.

    When attempting to open an Excel Add-in, the Add-in pop-up window sometimes does not appear, or when loading the add-in, this error message is displayed:
    "We couldn't connect to the 'Office Store' catalog server for this add-in."

    The add-in use to load fine, until recently, and still loads ok using the offline Excel.

  3. Expand number of folders displayed in folder hierarchy

    Our team works in incredibly deep folder structures and would appreciate the opportunity to view all subfolders in the folder hierarchy to more easily navigate through our folder structure. For example, if someone shares a file with me and it's in the "trailers" folder, it's very difficult for me to tell which project this is associated with unless I navigate many levels up in the folder structure to see a folder with the project name. Ideally, we would be able to see as many folders as can fit in the window space. Our team uses the Box web app and…

  4. Enhanced video player and shortcuts

    In general, it would be great if Box could make improvements to its video player. We find that the video player is lower quality than other software that our team uses, and team members frequently reach out with concerns that the video quality is low given the resolution issues with Box's video player. Our team would like to be able to have a frame-by-frame preview in Box and quickly navigate between frames using shortcut keys.

  5. Set the sidebar to be closed by default. The sidebar, document Preview, blocks to much of the screen and cannot be closed in embeds.

    Within Document Preview, set the righthand sidebar to be closed by default. Within our Box embed the righthand sidebar covers way too much screen space, limiting the viewing of the document. The sidebar can NOT be closed in our small embed, due to the inability to view the minimize or close button. We need to have a way to close or minimize the sidebar when previewing a document in our small embed.

  6. Enable enterprise 'super' co-admin account to hide or disable Content Recovery tab for specific users

    There is a new function Content Recovery, which has specific usage and limitations regarding its use. It would preferable therefore for the enterprise's main admin account (super co-admin) to be able to disable the function for specific (co-admin) users

  9. Automatic Box Canvas Creation Based on Instructions to Box AI

    Currently, Box Canvas provides templates, but users still need to create the content themselves each time, which can be burdensome.

    To further reduce user workload, I would like to request a feature that allows Box AI to automatically generate a Box Canvas output based on user instructions.

    Box AIへの指示でBox Canvasを自動作成:

    現在、Box Canvasにはテンプレートが用意されているが、ユーザー自身が毎回コンテンツを作成する必要があり、負担が大きいです。
    ユーザーの負担をさらに軽減するために、ユーザーの指示に基づいてBox AIが自動的にBox Canvasを出力する機能を追加してほしい。

  10. Redirect external users to Terms of Service acceptance screen instead of error page

    Would it be possible to redirect external users who have not accepted the custom Terms of Service to the acceptance screen instead of showing an error page when they access a shared link?

    External users who have not accepted our custom Terms of Service see an error when opening a shared link. This confuses users and makes it harder for them to access the content. Redirecting them to the Terms of Service screen would improve the experience and help them complete the access flow smoothly.

  11. Python in Excel while stored on Box

    I would like to be able to use Microsoft Excel's new implementation of Python.

    I have been told that Python in Excel can only be used on content stored in "secure container[s] on the Microsoft Cloud", such as OneDrive, Azure, Sharepoint, and other Microsoft proprietary resources.

    Can Box work with Microsoft to support this feature?

  13. Movable preview screen toolbar

    When the preview screen is opened, a toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen showing the zoom factor and page number, but since it is fixed at the bottom of the page, the preview screen is partially hidden in some documents, making it difficult to see.
    If this toolbar could be temporarily hidden or moved, it would make the preview screen easier to see.

    プレビュー画面を開くと、画面下に拡大率やページ数が表示されているツールバーが表示されるかと思いますが、
    ページの下に固定されているため、ドキュメントによってはプレビュー画面が一部隠れてしまい、見づらいです。
    このツールバーを一時的に隠したり、移動できるようにすれば、
    プレビュー画面がより見やすくなると思うので、改善を希望します。

  14. Ability to exclude invitation restrictions in tenant settings in Hubs

    We would like the ability to add folders with editor privileges in Hubs, even if only co-owners or higher can be invited in the tenant settings, so that it does not affect the invitation restrictions in the tenant settings.
    Anticipate that many companies will not be able to change the invitation restrictions on the tenant side due to personnel issuances, security risk avoidance, etc.
    Like to see this feature implemented, as it would improve the convenience of Hubs if there is a function to prevent tenant settings from affecting Hubs.

    テナント設定で共同所有者以上のみ招待可能な場合でも、Hubsでは編集者権限を持つフォルダを追加できるように、テナント設定の招待制限には影響しないようにする機能が欲しいです。
    人事発令やセキュリティリスク回避等で、テナント側の招待制限を変更することができない企業は多い事が予想されます。
    Hubsではテナント設定が影響しないようにする機能があれば、Hubsの利便性向上に繋がるかと思われますので本機能の実装を希望します。

  15. Allow Box AI summaries to display by default when a file is opened or selected

    It would be helpful if Box AI could automatically show the summary panel by default when a user selects a file or opens it in preview.
    Currently, users must manually trigger the AI to see summaries.
    For workflows involving many files, default visibility of summaries would improve usability and make Box AI insights more accessible and efficient.

  16. Enable support for Python in Excel with Box co-authoring enabled

    We would like to use the new Python in Excel feature while collaborating on Excel files stored in Box with co-authoring enabled. Currently, this combination is not supported, which limits our ability to leverage advanced data analysis and automation in collaborative environments.

    Please consider enabling compatibility between Python in Excel and Box's co-authoring functionality. This would greatly enhance productivity and data-driven collaboration for teams using both Microsoft 365 and Box.

    Boxに保存されたExcelファイルを共同編集しながら、Excelの新機能「Python in Excel」を使いたいと考えています。
    現在、この組み合わせはサポートされておらず、高度なデータ分析や自動化を共同作業環境で活用することができません。

    Microsoft 365とBoxの両方を利用しているチームにとって、Python in ExcelとBoxの共同編集機能の互換性が実現されれば、生産性とデータ駆動型のコラボレーションが大きく向上すると思います。ぜひ対応をご検討ください。

  17. Add Annotation and Task details to User Activity Report

    Currently the UAT does not include details about the actual text a user entered into a task or annotation (but does for comments). As the system allows those fields to be edited and/or deleted we must also now show those details so we know what was edited or deleted.

  18. Improve visibility and speed of LFOs within Box

    I’d like to share some feedback about the lack of visibility and the slow speed of Large File Operations (LFOs) in Box, particularly when moving large folders or performing ownership changes.

    These actions cause unavoidable downtime, but there’s no clear timeframe provided, and all items under the affected folders become inaccessible until the process finishes. This is creating significant headaches for our IT operations, especially as we’re working through major corporate restructuring. We’re forced to schedule these migrations on weekends to minimize disruption and open support tickets as a safety net in case the operations extend into the workweek and…

  19. Managed and Un-Managed users 2FA Provisioning & Enforcement for all business packages

    Regretfully, Basic Business package does not provision enforcement of 2FA for managed users and no 2FA at all for external collaborators. ,Security Feature availability \ enforcement of 2FA for Managed and Un-Managed users should be included in all business packages ... 2FA is a must have security feature for all users accessing firm's data.
