  1. Transfering ownership of Relay workflow

    If a workflow "owner" isn't functioning within the process where he is responsible for the flow anylonger (He is still within the organisation and so should not be decommissioned), Relay should allow transfer of that specific workflow to another member of the team rather can creating a new workflow.

  2. Save box notes in collections

    Hi Box Team,

    currently I can mark a box note as favorite and it will eventually show up in my favorite folder. However, it would be great if I could add box notes to one or more of my collections. This allows me to better structure the information available on Box.

    Thanks

    Hi there!

    We just released the Collections in Notes feature this week. You should now see the Collections menu item when you go to the “…” menu in your Notes app (next to the share button). Hope this helps!

  3. Box for iOS shows activity bar as default onscreen

    When using box, the activity and comment tab is always showing onscreen. I must hit the full screen tab each time I open a new document. This should be defaulted to full screen, and a selectable feature to show comments, not the other way around imo.

  5. Reports status

    Easily link to the file directly from Reports status
    Even if you know immediately that the status is completed in Reports status, it takes time to find the corresponding file in the report folder!
    The files are numerous, have similar names, are difficult to find, and are easy to make mistakes.
    So let us be able to jump directly to the file from Reports status.

  6. Avatar API Driven Capability

    Avatar —

    Customer would love to have the API Driven Capability to Upload to the user’s Avatar, and might require additional API parameters like “center point” to ensure a portrait is centered.

    Customer stores Avatar/Portraits of their people in centralized personnel databases, which is the key store for that data. Their users engage with it there for uniformity. Also API Driven would allow them to build Avatar Processes into their Native Mobile Apps that also impact their Box Experience in a positive manner.

    They already have several workflows that output Avatar to outside systems upon change internally.

  9. Menus are cut off and unusable

    When I select one of the files closest to the top of the list, the menu options for "open with" and sometimes "download" are cut off. No matter how I resize my screen I can't reach those menu items. This is an issue across multiple computers, usually using Chrome.

  10. I want to add a boxnote to a collection

    Let me add a box note into one or more Collections. Seems I currently can only "star" them to put them in my Favourites.

    Other files in box show the Collections management options, but box notes do not.

  11. Ability to force sync of Box Drive

    Currently, Drive relies on event poll for updating cached contents, and if events (updates on web) are not picked up by Drive in a timely manner, then local contents get outdated (out of sync with web). As a workaround, we want the ability to force sync of a selected folder (maybe add a right click menu to force sync/refresh cache).

    This feature was delivered in Box Drive v2.25!


    User can right-click on a folder in Box Drive and choose "Refresh folder" to get the latest updates made to this folder from Box on demand if they notice that some updates don't already reflect in Finder/Explorer.

  12. It would be helpful if Box relay workflow tasks could be recurring on a monthly, quarterly, yearly basis

    Reports need pulled monthly, quarterly and yearly, it would be nice to have recurring tasks

  13. Would like to have a setting where I could hide the activity pane for all documents when iPad is in landscape mode.

    I don't use the activity pane very often, but since I used my iPad docked in landscape mode with an external keyboard, the activity pane opens every time I open a document. Instead of having to minimize the activity pane each time I would prefer to have a setting where it is minimized by default and I open it only if needed.

  14. Report the history of Apps enabled / disabled in Individual Application Controls

    We would like to be able to get a history of apps that we have enabled / disabled in the Individual Application Controls of Admin Console.
    This is under Box Apps & Integrations within the Apps settings menu.
    Currently it cannot be exported from reports etc.

  15. Two-factor authentication with authenticator apps

    It should be possible for 2FA login to be via an authenticator app as opposed to SMS. This is arguably more secure and more convenient and something competitors offer.

  16. Add a report that lists metadata set for folders and files.

    There are many metadata templates, and each users can set them.
    In this situation, being able to see in lists what metadatas are actually applied to which files/folders and what values ​​are set can be very helpful in managing contents and metadata.

  17. Create reports for Shield actions/tracking

    Create reporting for Shield activities, including the following:
    1) Classifications applied by their name (i.e. 'externalpublic used on 157 folders/files'). This would help determine popular and unpopular classifications.
    2) User who applied the classification label and each time they applied one (i.e. Person A applied shield classification labels on 10/1, 10/2, 10/3, etc). Helps see who is using the labels and how frequently.
    3) User and which label they applied (i.e. Person B applied the external
    public label on 10/1, 10/2, 10/3, etc.). Helps see a combo of the above two bullets.
    4) Number of times a shield classification…
