  1. Lengthen Limit of Characters Shown when Collaborating with Groups

    Box currently truncates group names that are longer than 50 characters when collaborating on a file/folder. Unfortunately, when there are several groups that begin with the same 50 characters, it is difficult to determine which group is which (The only way is in the fly-over it will show the full name).

    The limit for Active Directory is 63 characters. Box should at least show this number of characters on group names when sharing.

  2. File Viewer yes loading

    Could you please change the specification that requires the export folder to be a personal folder (area) when exporting the list of file viewers? Currently, in my company, only co-owners or editors can collaborate. Therefore, those with other permissions have to request collaboration from co-owners or editors. However, personal folders (areas) allow for self-collaboration, making it difficult to manage.

  3. I would like to be able to specify multiple two-factor authentication options.

    I would like to be able to specify multiple two-factor authentication instead of one.
    The reason is that I want to be able to use it as a sub as a backup.

    example: select both SMS and Authentication App.

    This is helpful if a user loses their backup code and is blocked from logging in.

    -in Japanese
    二要素認証のオプションを複数指定できるようにしてほしい。

    二要素認証オプションを1つではなく
    複数指定できるようにしてほしいです。
    理由はバックアップとしてサブで使えるようにしたいからです。

    例:SMSと認証アプリの両方を選択する。
    これは、ユーザーがバックアップコードを紛失し、ログインをブロックされた場合に役立ちます。

  4. Metadata overlay as header / footer or document watermark

    Legacy ECM technology can overlay metadata attributes directly on versions of the document or when the document is printed. Metadata overlays are used for audit trails, SOPs, and other "point-in-time" compliance & records management use cases. In order to provide capabilities on par with legacy ECM technology, Box should consider additional advanced metadata features, such as printing or watermarking certain file types with attributes.

  5. Add additional_info data to all events to include service_id

    Currently, many events do not include the additionalinfo fields, in particular the serviceid field. This makes it difficult for organizations with many applications to track which of these applications are making the calls.

    Here are the events missing this information:

    • RENAME
    • UPLOAD
    • ITEM_CREATE
    • ITEM_UPLOAD
    • ITEM_MOVE
    • ITEM_TRASH
    • ITEM_RENAME
    • COLLABORATION_ACCEPT
    • COLLABORATION_EXPIRATION
    • COLLABORATION_INVITE
    • COLLABORATION_REMOVE
    • METADATAINSTANCECREATE
    • METADATAINSTANCEUPDATE
    • METADATATEMPLATECREATE
    • METADATATEMPLATEUPDATE
    • COMMENT_CREATE
    • COMMENT_DELETE
    • METADATAINSTANCEDELETE
    • METADATATEMPLATEDELETE
    • COLLABORATIONROLECHANGE
    • GROUPADDITEM
    • GROUPADDUSER
    • GROUPREMOVEITEM

  6. Online shortcuts won't be visible on BOX (desktop version)

    To let all people in my organization access my folder without affecting anything or editing anything, i decided to make shortcuts for folders.
    i've made a shortcuts for these folders, which are they working properly on BOX online, but it won't be visible on the desktop version of BOX.
    so there is an area of enhancement there to let all the folder even if it's shortcut to be visible or previewed on the offline version of BOX

  9. Shuttle migration total in current contract

    I would like to see the total migration completed in the current contract using Box Shuttle.
    Currently the "Content Transferred" shows the total including prior to the renewal so you don't know how much you have used after the renewal.

  10. Compress to zip format on Box web

    To compress a file or folder on Box, you must download it first.
    I wish there was a way to compress files directly from Box Web without having to download them.

    (in Japanese)
    Box web上でzip形式に圧縮する
    Box上にあるファイルやフォルダを圧縮するためには一度ダウンロードしなくてはいけない。ダウンロードしなくても、Box Web上から直接圧縮できるようにしてほしい。

  11. Storage Counter Display for End Users

    Display a storage display tracker from the All Files page for Enterprise Plans.

    Currently, if an organization has issued a storage limit cap, end users need to navigate to their account settings to see how much storage they have remaining. This request is to display the storage tracker directly from the All Files page (ex. - 15 GB out of 250 GB used). This will help users proactively review how much storage they have remaining

  12. No Logs for prevent Managed User username change

    The new feature allowing administrators to Prevent managed users from altering their Profile Name information does not generate any log entries when it is activated. Additionally, changes to this setting are not recorded, like when someone deactivates it.
    Please request that any modifications made through the Admin Console be included in the security logs. This must be forgotten in the development plan.

  14. Change the Send From Email

    Have the ability to send from another email, so instead of sending a contract from a specific user, i can send from a company email instead. Additionally we have multiple emails we send contracts from so i would like to select which email to send as.

    These are branded so its important its coming from the correct brand.

  15. Request that multiple file requests not be created when creating a File Request using the API

    When creating file requests using the API, multiple file requests can be created independently for one folder.
    In order to avoid this phenomenon, I would like an API to be prepared to retrieve the created file request ID from the folder.
    Or please provide some other workaround.

  16. Updating metadata date to current date button

    Having a button that would "Use Current Date" Would be a great benefit. Updating any date that is older than 10 years old takes two clicks. We have two dates associated with documents, being able to have a button that says use current date would save a lot of time when documents are updated.

  17. Allowing Box Drive to be enabled or disabled for specific users or groups

    I have found it inconvenient that Box Drive can only be enabled or disabled for all users uniformly.

    I believe that allowing Box Drive to be enabled or disabled for specific users or groups would provide more flexible operation. Implementing this feature could enhance security and operational efficiency. I would greatly appreciate your consideration of this request.

  18. I wanted to be able to edit/upload to folders via editable shared links.

    Ability for people outside the company to be able to upload to folders via an editable shared link. Currently this is only available for files and not folders.
