Section Limit on Hub Pages
Currently, there is a 90-section limit for each Hub page. We are concerned about letting users manage their hubs freely because they often don't keep track of the number of sections. Based on my validation, the frequency of this issue is unacceptable. Could you please increase this limit?

MCP
I would like to input content directly from Claude Code into sources like Box Notes, but currently, I have no choice but to upload them as txt or md files, which cannot be edited within the Box Web Application.
Since txt and md files cannot be edited directly on Box, I have to download them to my local machine and re-upload them every time I make an edit, which makes sharing and updating files extremely inconvenient.
I understand that Office or Google files cannot be edited directly via MCP, but I would like to be able to edit Box-native content,…
1 voteWe're happy to share that the binary file upload/download has been release - the actual availability depends on the MCP Clients sandbox and external access. More on that here: https://docs.box.com/en/box-mcp/tools#upload-and-download-url-tools

Integrate Box AI into the Hub Search Box
We’d like Box AI to be available directly from the main search box in Box Hubs. Today, users must click a separate AI button to open the AI panel, and less experienced users often overlook that button. Enabling AI from the central Hub search field would make Box AI more discoverable and easier to use as part of everyday searching.

Hubページのメイン検索窓(中央の検索ボックス)から直接Box AIを使えるようにしてほしいです。現状は上部のAIボタンを押してAIパネルを開く必要があり、慣れていないユーザーほどAIボタンに気づきにくいです。検索窓からそのままAI検索できれば、発見性が高まり日常の検索の中で自然に利用が広がると考えます。1 vote -
'Does not contain' filter for name field in Box App
We would like to be able to exclude content from a Box App view using a 'does not contain' operator. This would help us to narrow down content that is returned in a view.

Ability to resize metadata column widths
We have some file names that exceed that default widths of the columns in a Box App. We would like the ability to increase the width of a column if the length of the content exceeds the default column width. Currently, the only way to see the whole file name is to hover your mouse and wait for the small popup to show the file name, often requiring an end user to do this for every file returned in a view.
This functionality is present when viewing content in a folder; similar functionality in a Box App would be really…
1 voteThank you for your feedback and for using Box Apps. We really appreciate it.
An ability to resize the columns on Views, Folder Bookmarks and Manage Metadata has just been released.

Disable Public Links for Box Hubs Specifically
Box Hubs permissions are tied to global shared link settings which makes it impossible to block public links without disabling it across all documents and folders. I would like to be able to specifically disable public links for Box Hubs as the risk profile is far greater than the normal file/folder.
Our worst case scenario is that someone accidentally provides a publicly accessible link to a Hub which would "break" permissions for all files and folders added to it.
1 voteUsers can now block Hubs from being shared publicly via “anyone with the link”:
- Admins can set a global default in Hubs Global Presets to prevent open/public shared links for all new Hubs.
- Co‑owners can also restrict public shared links at the individual Hub level, as long as the admin hasn’t locked that setting.

We would like to be able to see the indexing status of content added to Box Hubs.
Currently, it is difficult to know when content added to a Hub becomes available for insights via Box AI,
and therefore hard to verify the accuracy of AI responses. Please display a status indicator showing whether content has been indexed.
Box Hubsに追加したコンテンツがインデックス化されているかステータスで分かるようにして欲しい

Tenant-level shared link restrictions for Box Hubs
We strictly manage folders and files on Box,
but the ability to select "People with the link" in Box Hubs poses a serious risk of data leakage.
To ensure secure usage,
we request the addition of a tenant-level setting that disables the "People with the link" option for Box Hubs shared links.Without this restriction, it will be difficult to allow users to utilize Box Hubs safely within our organization
7 votesWe have released a feature that allows to block Hubs from being shared publicly via “anyone with the link”:
- Admins can set a global default in Hubs Global Presets to prevent public shared links for all new Hubs.
- Co‑owners can also restrict public shared links at the individual Hub level, as long as the admin hasn’t locked that setting.

Multi-select filter for Box Apps Views
For filters in a View in Box Apps, I would like the ability to select multiple options in a drop-down list. For drop-down menu filters today, you can only select one option, but there are many use cases where multiple would be beneficial - e.g. I want to see all documents not in “complete” status so I would like to filter for “in progress”, “ready for first review”, “ready for second review” etc.
4 votesThanks for voting on this one! We recently launched more advanced filter options for Box Apps Views. This includes multi-select for filters on metadata that are single-select fields, as well as improvements to date filters, number filters, and text.

Add sections with no input needed and pages to Box Forms.
It would be great if Box Forms would include sections where you can have descriptions of what is expected, but without any input required. This would help let users understand expectations and give instructions. It would also be nice to have a next button so if you have a really long form, you don't have to keep scrolling, you can just hit 'next' to next page as you move through form. This would also help with logic where in stead of fields appearing/disapearring, they would just either be included or not included on next page based on previous response.

More items at a time on a file View in Box Apps
Allow for more items on a dashboard view - up to 250 per page or a continuously loading selection as I scroll down would be ideal.
7 votesHello, We are happy to share that Apps now allow displaying up to 100 items per View, depending on the User Account setting. This feature is now available to the customers.

The ability to block users from adding any sign field apart from Sign field
Within the GMP world in life sciences you need the ability to block users from adding any field apart from the sign block when setting up a sign request. If you scan a GMP record and send it out for signature you need to make sure the user cannot alter the scanned doc. e.g. if the user adds a sign text field and then makes a correction on a calculation from the original paper doc. then this is not reflected in the original doc
