  3. the search option is so messed up now. I am spending so much time looking for the exact folder and files I need to locate

    The search option prior to 2 weeks ago was perfect. I am not sure what changed but My whole team is pending countless time on each search. please reset it to that prior setting. Or tell us how to do that. Why does all that other stuff show up before the folder with just what I am looking for?

  4. There's now an extra click to highlight text in a Box note and it's a little annoying :)

    If I want to add highlight to some text in a Box note, the interface changed recently so that I have to highlight the text, click the "A - Text and Highlight color" button, and swap from text color to highlight. It's a bit of a pain to do that extra click!

  5. Upload Files from Windows desktop directly into a Box Hubs

    The workflow in mind is that I'll be able to directly upload content from my desktop (currently windows) into a Box Hub directly. Having an option to include files from my desktop as well as options to include Box content can provide a much more seamless experience for end users and ensure they can build Hubs more quickly rather than needing a set folder structure before adding to Box Hubs

  6. Admin controls for the Solutions menu

    We would like Box Admins to have the ability to manage the Solutions menu in the Box web app.

    The Solutions menu can create confusion because it allows end users to contact Box Consulting directly, which may bypass internal IT, helpdesk, procurement, or governance processes.

    Please consider adding admin controls to either:

    1) Enable or disable the Solutions menu for the enterprise
    2) Replace the default Box Consulting contact path with an internal helpdesk or support contact, similar to the support contact email setting in Admin Console (Custom Settings)

    This would help to route end user inquiries through the right…

  7. Improve external users admin page

    We're constantly adding and removing external users, and the list can get quite long. Unfortunately, the columns are not sortable - or expandable. This seems like an easy win!

  8. Ability to customise the content of the notification emails

    Currently, Box does not offer the ability to customize the content of the notification emails sent when sharing a link or inviting a collaborator. The email notifications are standardized and cannot be modified to include additional instructions or guidance.

    We are seeing an increase in clients reporting difficulties accessing links and files shared via Box. To help mitigate this, we would like to include additional guidance within the notification emails sent to recipients at the point of sharing.

  9. Persistent Encryption, encryption on the object (file itself), instead of just the container

    Looking for the ability for persistent encryption, on the object/file itself, instead of just the container. If a user download a file and puts it on a USB thump drive or emails it to another person, the file needs to remain encrypted.

  12. Make folder retention policies non-removable (or always visible) to Editors

    Today, Editors can remove the visible retention policy from a file or folder’s details panel, even though the underlying non-modifiable retention policy remains active in the background. This means that after an Editor removes the visible policy, there is no indication in the UI that retention still applies, which makes it appear as though the content is not under retention at all.

    This behavior causes confusion for end users and admins, and makes it harder to support clear records management and compliance because enforced retention is not transparently visible in the interface.

  13. capture history should be optional

    The Capture History should be optional to toggle on or off.
    We have a folder that relays the file to a secure location. We have onboarding iPads that we use to have people fill out their forms that contains sensitive information, and then they place that file in that folder. The onboarding team just realized that a copy of that file and any images/pdf's are being stored in a different folder.

    We want to keep our information secure, and this automatic feature isn't beneficial for our use of Box. We don't want to have to manually delete each copy.

  14. Increase of the upper limit on the number of metadata templates that can be created and permission management for metadata templates

    Currently, our company has a wide variety of unstructured data, and we would like to make use of metadata templates. However, there are significant differences in the templates that each on-site team wants to use. At present, metadata templates can only be created up to 500 per tenant, which leads to competition over templates. We would like to be able to create an almost unlimited number of metadata templates.
    In addition, once a metadata template is created, it becomes viewable across the entire tenant, which feels inconsistent with Box’s underlying philosophy of content-level permission management. We would like metadata templates…

  15. ability to select a source folder and have the outcome automatically include all subfolders

    In Box Automate, I created a custom extract agent and selected a source folder. However, after reviewing the run history, I noticed that only the files in the top-level source folder are processed, while files in subfolders are ignored. I would like the ability to select a source folder and have the agent automatically include all subfolders within it or give you the option to include them.

    We currently have a couple scenarios where we would like to run extraction on existing files and folders in a parent folder retroactively, not just new uploads.

    Thank you, and please let me…

  17. Create More Filters for User Details Reporting

    I am looking to have a User Details report automatically filter out platform users from managed users. Additionally, I'd like to see some other configurations of user outputs:

    All Users (managed, unmanaged, external, and platform users)
    Managed Users (managed users ONLY [without platform users])
    Platform Users (only platform users)
    Unmanaged Users (unmanaged users)
    External Users (external users)
    Managed and Unmanaged (managed [not platform] and unmanaged users)
    Managed and Platform Users (managed users report as of today)

  18. When my sidebar is expanded in Box, my entire Box window experiences a glitch that makes the entire screen strobe back and forth

    When my sidebar is expanded in Box, my entire Box window experiences a glitch that makes the entire screen strobe back and forth until I collapse the sidebar. It is extremely irritating and often I want the sidebar open so I can see details about an item.
