  1. Setting to prevent service account from creating new folder at root level

    We request a setting to prevent service account from creating new folders at the root level.

    [background]
    Service accounts are able to create new folders at the root level even when the Restrict Content Creation setting is enabled.

  3. Display of confirmation message screen to prevent accidental operation of Box Drive

    When using Box Drive, it is common for users to accidentally delete, move, or copy files.

    When manipulating large numbers of files, this failure can lead to serious information leaks and other problems.
    Therefore, it would be helpful to improve functionality such as displaying a confirmation message when deleting, moving, or copying files to better prevent accidental operations.

  4. Optional functionality when creating “shared links” directly from “box drive”

    When creating a “shared link” directly from a “box drive”, there is no ability to set an expiration date or password. It would be desirable to be able to set them for the purpose of preventing the creation of open links from reducing the level of security.

  5. Addition of the ability to enforce “file request” expiration dates.

    Currently, users can set an expiration date at their discretion in “File Request”, but there is no function for the administrator to enforce the expiration date setting. In order to deter external attacks and to ensure more secure operations, it would be ideal to have a function that allows the expiration date to be enforced.

  6. Hyperlink # discarded

    The hyperlinks in the PPT cannot be parsed properly, and the parameters after # will be discarded. I hope this can be improved

  7. event stream api

    Within the Event stream API, have the ability to filter events by folder ID in the “Get Enterprise Events” API call.

    In addition, add missing data in Response certain event types such as:

    • Folder delete doesn't give file path
    • Copy gives item id of source but not name or link
    • Rename doesn't give source file path

  9. Hide contributors on Box Hubs

    Customers need the ability to hide who their published Hubs are shared with. They are sharing information with multiple customers who may be competitors of one another, and want to prevent them from seeing who else is accessing the information.

    Previewer role is under consideration but still not defined on our roadmap. Please share additional feedback and use cases to help us understand the importance of this release. 

  10. Integrate Computer Vision into Box AI

    As far as i understand currently Box AI only works for assets which have a text representation. It would be great if you could add computer vision to Box AI (could be achieved by adding LLM tooling provided e.g. by GPT-4o-mini) in order of being able to extract text content from scanned images and ask questions about for the content.
    The generated text content could be stored as a text representation as well which would speed up subsequent Box AI calls for the same asset.

  11. Box for Microsoft Office co-authoring permissions per folder

    I propose the ability to change the setting for each folder regarding whether or not Box co-authorship is enabled.
    With the current Box for office co-authoring feature, all folders have the coauthoring feature turned on.
    I would like to have a switch so that some folders are on and some are off.

    Boxの共著の可否について、フォルダ毎に設定を変更する機能を提案します。
    現在のBox for officeの共著機能では、全てのフォルダが共著機能がオンになってしまいます。
    あるフォルダはオン、あるフォルダはオフというように、スイッチをつけてほしい。

  12. install and syncronize box in a chosen folder

    1. I am windows user. I wanted to install box and syncronize my box files in my local D: drive, because my C: drive is full. Surprisingly, the installation process of Box app does not provide such an option (of selecting which drive to install Box to). It by default is installed on C: drive . This is very insane. Windows Users can choose to install which drive to install any app.

    2. My C: drive is full, and I want to syncronise everything both in cloud and in local computer, but i cannot do so because C: drive is full, and…

  15. Problem with workbook link in Excel

    we have a problem with some excel files with embedded workbook links pointing to a BOX folder.
    Today, after enabling BOX for Microsoft Office (desktop) some of these links changed from:

    C:\users\username\BOX\Boxdrivername\Boxfoldername

    To

    api.box.com\userName\BOX\Boxdrivername\Boxfoldername

    thus giving a file not found error when we reopen the "master" excel file.

    How can we solve this problem?

    Below is the procedure for reproducing the error.
    Starting Configuration:
    BOX drive installed: YES
    Enabled Box for Microsoft Office Coauthoring: NO
    In this example, the original file (test.xlsx) contains a link to a second file (linkedworkbook.xlsx) . As you can see the path is C:\users\svacchini\BOX\CIT.......

  16. Display the person who is holding the lock.(ロックを取得している人を表示)

    Since it is not displayed who is locking the file, it is unclear who has obtained the lock. Being able to identify this will allow us to request the person holding the lock to release it.

    (in Japanese)
    ファイルをロックしている人が誰かが表示できないため誰がロックを取得しているのか分かりません。
    これが分かるようになることで、ロックしている人に解除するよう求めることができるようになります。

  17. Display a dialog to confirm the intended operation.(操作が本意かを確認するダイアログ表示)

    I often accidentally move or delete files and folders in BoxDrive. To help prevent these mistakes, it would be beneficial to implement an option that displays a confirmation dialog before moving or deleting items. This would be a great help to many users.

    (in Japanese)
    BoxDriveで誤ってファイルやフォルダを移動または削除させてしまうことが多々あります。
    こういった誤操作を防ぐために、移動・削除前に確認ダイアログを表示させるオプションを実装してくれると、多くの人が助かります。

  19. Mirror shared folder across enterprises

    We have a user who collaborates with folks in a different Box enterprise, and wants to know if their shared content can be mirrored between folders within each enterprise. He sees this as a potential positive for backup, among other purposes.

  20. File request metadata type to search instead of drop down

    I have metadata attribute with over 100 items. In our workflow artwork is submitted for review. Upon submission key attributes need to be selected during the file request process. Type to search would be far more effective then a drop down in this scenario. Can you make it so it's drop down, but if someone types in, the drop down filters based on what is typed?
