  1. Upgraded my laptop, lost hundreds of files, Box support claiming files never properly synced

    Hi Box, I am incredibly frustrated and disappointed with your product. Your customer support team said I need to post the feedback here. I have been using Box Drive for the past four years and was using it to keep track of sensitive and important records and information related to my employer's financial statement audits. This included hundreds of workpapers and workbooks used to gather and compile information to send to our auditors for the company to pass our annual audit. I could view the files in Box Drive and in the online web browser, indicating that they had properly…

  3. Editting text files online without using Box Edit

    I want to edit text files(.txt files) online without using Box Edit.
    Because when I edit a text file with Box Edit, I have to download it each time, which takes time.
    I think it would be very convenient if I could easily edit text files on Box, just like Box Notes.

  4. Feature Request: Flexible Expiration Settings for Shared Links

    I would like to submit a feature request for Box Plus.

    Currently, we have set expiration dates for shared links in the management console for links that anyone with the link can access. Users are not allowed to extend or make these shared links permanent.

    However, there is a demand from multiple departments to embed teaching links as QR codes so that on-site materials can be referenced locally, and also to permanently publish documents on Box publicly. Therefore, I would like to request some features that allow partial access.

    For example:

    Set exceptions for expiration dates only for specific folders.

  5. file and folder tree report same-day request

    Allow real-time file and folder tree reporting as soon as files are uploaded. (Currently, I'm able to only request these overnight.) Leapfile, your competitor, allows for real-time reporting. Box should too.

  6. hubs thumbnails

    When viewing an anonymous Hub, and the user is not authenticated, thumbnails of the files are not displayed, you only see an icon. It would be much more visually appealing if the thumbnails were shown for anonymous users.

  7. Matching display with Box Notes shared link settings

    If the Admin Console [Shared Link Permissions] is set to type "File: Can view and download" and type "Box Notes: Can view and edit",
    Depending on where you create a Box Notes shared link, the settings and permissions displayed do not match.This is the current specification.

    Created a shared link from a file list: The permission "View only" is displayed because the type is "File", but it can be edited.
    Creating a shared link from the Box Notes share button: The "Can edit" permission is displayed to refer to the type "Box Notes".

    We feel that this specification causes confusion…

  8. BOX for Outlook - Saving Outlook messages in .msg and not .eml format

    Outlook messages saved to BOX using the BOX for Outlook icon default to .eml format and thus cannot be previewed in BOX.
    The only way to save the message in .msg format (that can be previewed) is to use Outlook's 'Save as' feature and force it to save the message in .msg format to BOX Drive. This is a very time-consuming process.
    I would like to see Outlook messages defaulting to .msg and not .eml format.

  9. Using public Beta for Folder Insights with Editor permissions

    Most users who need Folder Insights are editors.
    Also, invitations are often restricted for security reasons.
    I would like to see Folder Insights and reports downloadable even for invite-restricted editors.

    フォルダインサイトを必要としているユーザーの多くは編集者権限であり、
    またセキュリティ上の理由から招待を制限されていることが多い。
    招待制限されている編集者権限でもフォルダインサイトの閲覧とレポートのダウンロードができるようにしてほしい。

  10. Added deletion counts to public Beta for Folder Insights

    The public beta version of Folder Insights does not provide insight into deletions made within folders.
    Until now, if a file was accidentally deleted, it was necessary to get an administrator report, which was a lot of work, but if Folder Insights can provide a report of deleted files, work will become smoother.
    I would like to be able to check the deletion information in the folder with Folder Insight.

    -in Japanese-
    ベータ版のフォルダインサイトではフォルダ内で行われた削除の情報が提供されていない。
    これまではファイルを誤削除してしまった場合、管理者にレポートを取得してもらう必要があり手間が発生していたが、
    フォルダインサイトから削除したファイルの情報を取得できれば作業がスムーズになる。
    フォルダインサイトでフォルダ内の削除情報を確認できるようにしてほしい。

  11. API that can get password change date

    The interval at which users are required to change their passwords can be set in the Administration Console, but each user is required on a different day.
    We would like to inform users of the next password change date in advance.
    You can check the password change date in the user detail report, but it takes time to output it, so if you have an API that can get the password change date, you can create a mechanism to automatically notify it.

  12. set a password for a folder

    Because Box's access rights are waterfall, access rights set at a higher level cannot be removed from lower levels.
    Instead of removing access rights, I want to set a password for the folder to limit who can access it.

  13. Relay Trigger "copy out" &"move out"

    In Box Relay, the triggers for “copy” and “move” are recognized as “when a file is copied to this folder” and “when a file is moved to this folder.” Can we create triggers such as “when a file leaves this folder” or "when a file in this folder is copied somewhere else"? In other words, I would like there to be a function that allows us to detect when a file has been copied out to an external folder. I hope this feature will be considered.

  14. Allow user to upload file but prevent folder creation

    Currently when using content explorer for box. we create ollaboration for user and even downscope the token to limit access. but there is no way where we can allow user to upload file only and prevent folder creation at same location.

  15. Ability for Admins to find the owner/creator of a custom app, regardless of auth type

    Admins should be able to find out who created an application. Right now we can only see the authentication types that are authorized through the admin console. OAuth applications are not easily researched. If the application was created outside of the 7 year reporting window, we also aren't able to create an activity report to determine which user created the application. If an app is making calls in our Enterprise, we should be able to figure out who owns the app in case there are any issues and they need to be contacted.

  16. Add Bulk Files to a Hub

    Currently, adding files to a Hub requires each file to be selected individually. Being able to drag a group of files from Box Drive would be really helpful, or some sort of a "Select All" button so that all files within a Box folder could be selected simultaneously.

  17. Request for improvements to Box folders for Teams in Box for Teams V2

    When using Box for Teams V2, we found that the auto-created folders for teams were heavy on operations.
    I would appreciate it if you could add the following two functions.
    1.When you delete a member from a team, you want to delete that member's collaboration from the team Box folder.
    2.When the team itself is removed from Teams, remove all member collaborations from the team Box folder.

  18. API) Add 'enterprise.id' to the collaboration user object.

    When retrieving the list of collaborators, we want to know whether each collaborator is an internal or external user, like in Box Web.

    The collaborators object does not include information to determine whether a collaborator is internal or external user. As a result, we have to call the Users endpoint, which increases processing time.

    API Call:
    GET https://api.box.com/2.0/collaborations/:collaboration_id

    We would appreciate it if the EID could be included in the collaboration response to improve efficiency.

  19. Require comments when changing classification labels and keep history

    Require comments when changing classification labels and keep history

    Currently Box Shield does not allow the reason or history to be kept when changing.
    We would like to see a comment input field added to the UI when making changes, and also made mandatory in the administrator settings.

    If it is a file, we would like to leave the comment entered in the comment (activity) field of the file so that the end user can check the history.
    For folders, we would like to leave them as undeletable txt files, etc.

    Such a feature would allow all users above the…

  20. MFA timeout settings for external collaborators

    The following features currently only have settings that can be applied to managed users:
    However, in order to strengthen security, we believe that limiting the scope of application to managed users is insufficient.
    Please apply this setting to external collaborators as well (especially those with free accounts).

    For example, if the requirements are not met, the collaboration status will be "pending."

    Box is adding configurable MFA timeouts:

    以下の機能は、現在、管理対象ユーザーに対してのみ設定を適用することが可能です。
    しかし、セキュリティ強化のためには、適用範囲が管理対象ユーザーのみでは不十分と考えます。
    外部コラボレータ(特に無償アカウント)に対してもこの設定を適用してください。

     例:要件を満たさない場合、コラボレーションのステータスが「保留中」になる等
