Request for additional notification settings for BoxDrive
Is it possible to add a setting that periodically sends pop-up notifications when something is on hold or when there is a synchronization error? (It would be ideal to be able to select ON/OFF)

We want to make it easier to change the owner of a workflow in Box Relay.
In Japan, organizational changes and personnel transfers occur frequently, which necessitates changing the owner of workflows in Box Relay.
Currently, to change the owner, users have to transfer the workflow to another user and disable the original workflow.This process is not intuitive and is cumbersome for users. Additionally, there are too many steps involved. As a result, even though Relay is a good feature, it feels difficult to use and does not gain user adoption.
We would like to see improvements that allow for a one-click transfer of ownership.
For example, adding an option to change the owner in…10 votes -
Hubs and Can View Path
Users with CanViewPass enabled cannot select the top-level folder because it is grayed out, even if they want to add a folder to the Hub. If CanViewPass is on, please allow navigation from the top-level folder (adding to the Hub is not necessary).

removal of the delete confirmation prompt in the Box Drive app
Hey there,
I’d like to request the removal of the delete confirmation prompt in the Box Drive app for Mac. When I delete a file, the system prompts me to confirm the action, which I find unnecessary and disruptive to my workflow. Since deleting a file requires deliberate actions—right-clicking and selecting delete—the additional confirmation step is redundant.
In my line of work, I frequently delete files, and this extra step adds unnecessary friction to my process. If a file is deleted by mistake, it can easily be restored from the Trash folder, making the confirmation prompt an unnecessary inconvenience.

Use status field in addition to overlay in Windows File Explorer
This would allow users to see status icons for each folder and file without relying on the file/folder icon overlays that Windows limitations make problematic. OneDrive uses the status field in addition to overlays. Box should, too.

Search Filter UI
Some people say that when they try to use the search filter, the screen goes dark and the filter moves to the right, which makes the UI look like an error.
They want the filter screen to be displayed in a place where the user can easily find it.1 vote -
Hi there! I want to be able to embed the Box Hubs AI chat box on Sharepoint.
The idea: A user visits the intranet, navigates to policies, and can ask about any of our internal policies. The box hub behind it would be full of our policies / documentation. But all the user see's is the Box Hubs Chat Box where they can type human language in about their vacation time or whatever.

Enhance Box AI Responses to Include Clickable Hyperlinks
When Box AI references or cites a document containing a hyperlink, the main text of the response currently displays the hyperlink as plain text. To improve usability and streamline navigation, Box AI should format these hyperlinks as clickable links.
This enhancement would significantly improve the user experience by enabling direct access to the referenced content.

Add string filters to file actions in Box Relay
A Box Relay example: every day at 03:00am i want to delete all files in a folder and it's subfolders which contain a specific string in their filename. I can't do this right now because i have to select a specific file and cannot apply string search or wildcards as file name (e.g. filename contains "xxxy"). Can you please check if this functionality can be applied. Many thanks.

Requests regarding BoxRelay:
If rejecting, please allow us to enter the "reason for rejection." Although we are substituting by entering it in the comments, comments can be deleted.
Please increase the space between the approval and rejection buttons a bit more. There are times when it causes accidental operations.1 vote -
Upload data with binary
Allow to attach additional data points (metadata) while uploading the binary file to Box.
Currently we have to make separate API call to Box's metadata endpoint.
This would be very useful as could simplify our flows and reduce API calls.6 votes -
Download box appears which is deceiving making people think they have to login
We mostly share documents with external clients. When they access the document and press download, a box shows up (attached) that says the document is dowloading but also says "in the meantime login to your box account...." This is very deceiving and confusing to clients as they think they have to login and don't understand they can just close the box. There has to be a way to eliminate that, change the verbiage or customize this. We work with elderly clients and this continues to be a challenge.

Support for the vtt mime type
Would it be possible to support the vtt mime type? This is necessary in order to be able to add "tracks" (i.e. subtitles/captions) to videos.
WebVTT files have a MIME type of text/vtt

Expose technical metadata
In order to find e.g. the largest version of a media file or to define if the technical parameters of a media file are sufficient for further processing, the exposure of technical meta data should be provided by Box in a standard meta data template which should automatically apply to any file stored in Box.
Technical metadata are:
- for page-based documents like PDF, MS Office, Indesign: number of pages, format/orientation, size in mm h/w
- for bitmap image files (tif, jpg, png, bmp, gif, ...): no of pixels h/w, size in mm w/h, resolution, color space, embedded color profile,…2 votes -
Support for fetching and modifying co-admin permissions.
Support for fetching and modifying co-admin permissions.
Currently, Box allows users to retrieve a user’s role as an attribute via the /users/{user_id} endpoint. The possible role values are “user,” “admin,” and “coadmin.” While permissions for the “user” role can be accessed through this endpoint, the permissions and privileges associated with the “coadmin” role cannot be retrieved or modified through the API. This functionality is, however, accessible through the admin console user interface.

BoxDrive Moving files between folders with different owners using
BoxDrive When using to move files in different folders with different folder owners, the file owner cannot be changed and an error occurs. This can be done using the Box browser, so I would like to be able to do the same with BoxDrive.

GoogleDrive Regarding file conflicts in
BoxDriveI am aware that there are solutions for file conflicts like the one below, but there are some cases where the above cannot be resolved. (e.g., under a folder with "Hide" enabled).
・Box for Microsoft Office collaborative editing function
=> https://support.box.com/hc/ja/sections/21356589562131
・Use BoxDrive's lock function
=> https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/360061782454I would like Box to consider a feature like Google Drive that allows you to "overwrite" a file in a pop-up when a file conflict occurs.
