Allow Custom Domain Email Addresses for Service Accounts and App Users
Service Accounts and App Users are automatically assigned an email address with the @boxdevedition.com domain. This becomes problematic when a company's collaboration settings define internal users by their own corporate domain (e.g., example.com).
Under this configuration, if a shared link's access level is set to "People in your company," the Service Accounts and App Users are treated as external users because their @boxdevedition.com email does not match the company's domain. Consequently, they are blocked from accessing these internal-only links, which hinders automated workflows and API-based processes.
Proposed Solution
Introduce a feature that allows administrators to change the assigned @boxdevedition.com email…1 vote -
Request for control over shared links for company users
In order to share content quickly and securely with certain company users, we would like to request the following features

・Allow tenant default values for shared link expiration to be configured specifically for “company users.”

Please eliminate the need to log in and out when updating the app
When updating the app or fixing issues, we would like to avoid requiring users to log in and out whenever possible. For administrators, it is burdensome to notify employees about changes that need to be reflected.

Expire shared links for external users, but not internal employees
When employees use shared links to exchange sensitive data with clients, we set them to expire for security reasons. However, when we later encounter a shared link within an internal email or slack message, we can no longer see what it linked to. We could go run a report to find out, but that would be a support ticket. It would be much better if shared links could just continue working for employees (if they are permitted direct access) even after they have expired for external users.
Before link expiration, content is accessible to anybody internal or external who has…

Envelope support
At present box sign doesn't support envelope feature. Like adobe esign api or docusign api. I can request an agreement or an envelope to a set of users and their sign fields mapped in the entire document .
Box at present considers the signature field per document only. This is an essential piece to complete against adobe esign api or docusign api.
From pricing perspective box can introduce a special pricing for this as well.

Users should know what they are exposing outside
Is it possible to have a simple page accessible by a user, to get :
- all the shared links he has created (especially open links accessible by anyone outside, with or without password and expirity date)
- and old outside collaborations (with Box accounts needed)
?A lot of users create collaboration and shared links, and many months or years later they don't remember that these parameters are still in place (even if they don't work anymore with those external users).
It is a breach of security, exposing data outside of our company without knowing it (unless we dig…5 votes -
Co-admin permissions : report role has too many rights
If a user has only the report co-admin role ("Run new reports and access existing reports") to let him create reports for him, he can see other things in the admin console :
- Insights
- Content
- Reports (OK)
- Platform (with the Create Sandbox button !)Is it possible to secure this, so he can only see the Reports part ?

In Box Relay, when an approval task is rejected, I want to be able to select any step.
I would like to create a workflow like the following:
Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 1) -> Approval Task 1 -> Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 2) -> Approval Task 2 -> Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 3) -> Approval Task 3
If Approval Task 3 is rejected, the file would remain in "Awaiting approval 3".
However, I actually want to move it to "Awaiting approval 2".
It is necessary to return to the "Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 2) "step, NOT the "Task" step.■In Japanese
以下のようなワークフローを作りたいです。
ファイル移動（移動先フォルダ：承認中１）→承認１→ファイル移動（移動先フォルダ：承認中２）→承認２→ファイル移動（移動先フォルダ：承認中３）→承認３
承認３で却下された場合、ファイルが「承認中３」に残ったままになってしまいますが、本来は「承認中２」に移動させたいです。
そのため、"タスク"のステップではなく、"ファイル移動（承認中２）"のステップに戻せるようにすることが必要です。3 votes -
I want to change the display position of the BoxAI button on the preview screen.
I understand that in the current settings, BoxAI buttons are displayed in the top right and at the beginning of the right sidebar when a document is opened.
I would like to be able to change the position of the top right button and the display order in the sidebar (I want it to be displayed at the bottom).現在の設定ではドキュメントを開いた際に右上と右側サイドバーの先頭にBoxAIのボタンが表示されると認識している。
この右上のボタンの位置や、サイドバーの表示順（一番下に表示させたいと考えている）を変更できるようにしてほしい。1 vote -
Sorting & Tagging
I’ve encountered a few issues with Box.com and it’s impeding on my performance.
When creating folders the system by default sorts by the latest folder accessed. Clicking on “NAME” to resort by folder structure is time consuming.
Also, I was told the Box desktop app was a good alternative to Box.com. All was well until I stumbled upon a design flaw when tagging a folder on the desktop app vs Box.com
I use a Mac and tag using their colour coding system. Unfortunately, Box.com does not support said feature so the tags are only visible on my laptop.Since there’s…

Perform two-factor authentication on the Box mobile app
Users cannot configure two-factor authentication from the Box Mobile app.
It is necessary to configure settings from a PC, so users who do not normally use a PC for their daily tasks need to be provided with an environment where they can use a PC individually.
Since it is very time-consuming, I would like to be able to set up two-factor authentication from the Box Mobile app as well.

列幅が狭く、変更を固定できない。The column width is abnormally narrow, and changes cannot be fixed.
BOXドライブをエクスプローラ上で開いたときにファイル名の欄が異常に狭い状態で表示され、手動で直したり幅を再設定しても自動で狭い幅に戻されてしまいます。非常に使い勝手が悪いです。数年前からある不具合で多くの人が報告しているのに、いまだに修正されていないことにも驚きます。
When opening BOX Drive in Explorer, the file name column displays abnormally narrow.
Even if I manually adjust it or reset the width, it automatically reverts to the narrow width. This is extremely inconvenient.
I'm also surprised that this bug has existed for years, has been reported by many people, and still hasn't been fixed.

Mouse Drag + Option to copy/duplicate an element.
Most tools like Powerpoint, Google Slides, Figma, FigJam, Miro , etc. support holding a key and drag an element to create a copy. This the fastest way to copy elements around the page such as to create copies of post-its, squares, etc. In Box canvas, I can pick an item, copy and paste and then I have to select the copied item and move it to where I want. Drag copying does all that in one motion.

User Offboarding (File/Folder Moves)
I’d like to suggest an improvement to the user offboarding process. When we delete a user, it would be very helpful to have more granular control over where that user’s files and folders are moved within the tenant. This way we can choose someone and then maybe a subfolder they want the data placed in.
Specifically, having the option to:
- Choose the destination folder for the disabled user’s content.
- Include checkbox option to include trash bin contents along with the rest of their files.This would make the offboarding process more efficient and ensure nothing is overlooked.

Get a bold view about comments number on a document
Today when you put a comment on a document you can see how many comments are put on the document. What will be great, is to get this number in bold until all comments have been read by the user. This may help as an example when you comeback from leaves, and get many comments on different documents, you won't get any chance to know if you checked all, except to go on each documents and check them one by one. It's boring and makes the user to waste time. Thank you to consider this request.

Add a "View All Tasks" button to the left menu
To view all tasks, you need to press the clipboard icon and then select "View All Tasks."
It takes two clicks each time, which is very time-consuming.
I would like you to add it to the left menu so that I can check all tasks with a single click.

The customer can perform a folder search for names containing “example” (case-insensitive), choose “Export results,” receive a CSV of search
The customer can perform a folder search for names containing “TBD” (case-insensitive), choose “Export results,” and receive a CSV in their Box Reports folder listing each matching folder with key metadata (folder name, full path/parent, owner, folder ID, created/updated dates). This enables efficient identification and tracking of folders marked as missing data across the tenant
The customer’s teams add “TBD” to folder titles to flag missing information. While they can locate these folders via search today, Box does not allow exporting that list of search results. The current workaround—exporting folder trees from Content Manager—does not produce a targeted list of…

Can we get the ability to set which agent is the default agent per hub?
It would be great if we could set which agent is the default for each hub. If left blank, then the default Box agent is selected. If we have an agent for each hub, our users may forget to switch the agent as they switch between hubs.

External Users sortable columns and bulk deletion based on last active date
Box makes it easier thru the Admin console GUI in the near future.
For External Users a sortable column of “Last Active” and then bulk deletion is needed in the Admin GUI.It would also be nice to have the option in Security to set a threshold like 90 days inactive for External Users before auto-delete to manage this automatically going forward.
