  1. Please allow us to set the default sort preference for individual folders.

    It is very frustrating, that the folders all default to descending order by file name. This should be able to be set for each folder.

  2. Additional levels of Admin Console permissions based on functional role

    Additional levels of permissions based on your functional role:
    Currently Co-Admin's default permissions grants them access to Content Manager, Platform and Classification while in most cases this is NOT required and already way too high. Permissions need to be more granular configured for each role's requirement.
    For bigger corporations, it is necessary to divide permissions into various new tiers of access. At present, it is impossible to distinguish between permissions, and this configuration offers a uniform access solution to various departments within the company, despite them all currently sharing identical permissions.

    Members of a Legal Team should be restricted from…

  3. launching office pop up box

    Can you add an option to tick a box 'do not show this again' for the launching office pop up. I have to shut this so many times a day and it's totally pointless for a regular user.

  4. Ability to select specific shared links and delete them all together

    Sometimes, users create shared links and then leave them unattended.
    As part of our inventory, we delete unnecessary shared links based on the shared link report.
    However, in order to delete them, we need to access each file from a browser.
    We would like a mechanism to delete multiple specific shared links at once.
    If there are multiple shared links in the same folder, I would like the ability to check them off and delete them all together.

    In Japanese:
    共有リンクをユーザが作成した後、放置されていることがあります。
    棚卸の一環として、共有リンクレポートをもとに不要な共有リンクを削除していますが、
    それらを削除するためにはブラウザから各ファイルにアクセスする必要があります。
    複数の特定の共有リンクを一括で削除できる仕組みが欲しい。
    もし同一フォルダ内に複数の共有リンクがある場合は、チェックを付けてそれらをまとめて削除できる機能が欲しい。

  5. Ability to have users enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link without being logged in.

    In the case of a public shared link, there is no way to verify the user who manipulated the file if it was manipulated while the user was not logged in.
    However, we would like to verify by whom the shared file was downloaded.
    Since the file sharing partners are unspecified, we would like to share files via a shared link rather than through collaboration.
    Request the ability to track the operating user by having them enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link in an un-logged-in state.

    (日本語)
    <共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際に名前やメールアドレスを入力できる機能>
    「リンクを知っている全員」に設定した共有リンクの場合、未ログイン状態で操作された場合はファイルを操作したユーザーを確認する手段がありません。
    しかし、共有したファイルが誰によってダウンロードされているか確認したいと考えています。
    ファイルの共有相手は不特定多数のため、コラボレーションではなく共有リンクでファイルを共有したいと考えています。
    共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際には名前やメールアドレスを入力させて、操作ユーザーを追える機能をリクエストします。

  6. Request for improvement of Box mobile app problem when enlarging image data.

    This is a feature improvement request regarding the preview function of Box mobile app.

    When using Box mobile app to preview and enlarge scanned paper or photographed image data on a mobile device,

    the quality of the image data is poorer than when previewing and enlarging image data in Box GUI operated with a web browser, and small text cannot be displayed.

    Reviewing PDFs of A3 size architectural drawings or checking details of diagrams in manuals is inconvenient with Box mobile app.

    Image quality remains constant even when previewing image data using Box GUI in a web browser and enlarging…

  8. BoxSignの署名者の本人確認強化について/ Strengthening Identity Verification of Signers of BoxSign

    We recognize that BoxSign is a very convenient function because it allows the signer's workflow to be completed on Box, but we have determined that it cannot be used in actual operations because it does not provide sufficient assurance of the signer's identity.
    As described in the following website, signer authentication can be added, but it must be configured individually on each workflow, and we believe it is very risky to leave the configuration to the user.
    https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/4406861109907-%E8%BF%BD%E5%8A%A0%E3%81%AE%E7%BD%B2%E5%90%8D%E8%80%85%E8%AA%8D%E8%A8%BC

    Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could improve the functionality so that the following parameters can be restricted in the Enterprise…

  9. Box Sign: Document ID on the header/footer of the document

    We would like to add the Document ID number on the header or footer of the documents when we finished signing with Box Sign. We understand that the hard copy is not required as long as the sign is done with Box Sign. But, if we print out the signed document, we can not see any evidence that the signed page is related to the other pages. In the DocuSign, I can see such function.

  10. Ability to save/copy to my local box when a public link is shared with me

    When someone shares a public link to me via Box, I am unable to add/copy the file to my local Box. I have to download from the web then reupload to Box.com. Even though I am signed into Box.com I am unable to save/copy locally to my file structure. (conversely, if someone shares with my box email directly I then see it in my Recents, but this is not always the case)

  11. Box Relay Outcome for applying current date upon a file upload

    Currently with Box Relay and a Metadata date field you can set a date to be applied upon a file or folder upload. However, you can not select 'current date'. It will only apply a date that you have selected at the time of crafting the relay. It would be great to have an automation to set a date based on when the file was uploaded to Box.

  12. Improve on Download log in the Activity Log

    Currently when trying to access to a file that does not have a collaboration right, it is registered as download in the activity report.
    I have heard the support team that this is expected behaviour due to the backend work to read the thumbnail.
    However, when looking at the activity log, it looks like a user has "downloaded" that file even though they do not have access to it so would like the report to not show "download" but something else to know that the user hasn't actually downloaded that file.

  13. Use Relay to copy or move based on filename

    I would love to use box relay for a simple workflow. Is it possible to build a relay workflow that when a file is uploaded to a folder to look for a phrase in the filename and copy/move to a subfolder?

    Ex: Uploaded Filename contains the word "Home" -> Move to Home folder

    or Uploaded Filename contains the word "Work"-> move to work folder

  14. Allow Shield Location Rule Restriction By Folder

    Currently Shield's Location Restriction rule is applied to the entire EID by user/groups. It would be helpful to be able to set this up by specific folder(s) or folder structure.

    Ex. Team A is not allowed to view specific content while in Location X, however Team B is able to. Currently the restriction would be set on the EID level and both teams would be under this restriction.

    We could exclude group B or other groups from the rule however Group A would still be restricted from accessing other content within the EID.

  18. Unable to move Box files to new hard drive

    I added a larger, secondary drive to my computer, and I'd like to move the Box Drive and off line files to this second drive. This is because the C-drive is 90% full while the new terabyte drive is almost empty. I need to free up space on the C-drive. I was told "customizing the Box Drive folder does not change where Box Drive stores its app data or cached files, including items marked for offline use, so customizing the folder will not save disk space if you relocate the folder to another drive".

  20. View total Folder size in web app without requiring an Admin run a report.

    Users and Content managers require the ability to see the size of a folder they have access permissions to without having to reach out to an admin and run a report.

    We are aware of the admins being able to run reports, as well as users being able to see the individual file sizes, but when multiple files need to be downloaded or handled via folder box user needs to contact us on the admin side to do any cursory decision making or review hundred and sometimes thousands of files individually just to simply get a total file size of…
