I want you to be able to add folders that are not owned or co-owned to Box Hubs
Many of the folders I use have editor permissions, and the current specifications do not allow me to use Hubs
I want you to be able to add editor permissions folders to Hubs as well.タイトル：
所有者・共同所有者ではないフォルダーもBox Hubsに追加できるようにしてほしい
本文：1 voteUnfortunately, we won't implement this as this contradicts Hubs security policy.

Need to be able to circle options
We have many documents that require a selection to be made, rating service, etc. the text field, check box and radio options are not the best solution for our needs. I chatted with Emma at BOX support and she mentioned adding it here. Is there a way that we can have an additional feature added where, if someone was going to rate on a scale of 0-5, they could circle the option w/o having to download and manually act on the request?

Form dropdown - Show big list of Values from Excel
How to manage long list of Items like Asset Number or Functional location Number into Form Drop Down?
If Drop Down functionality on the form can take Excel as Source then that can solve this issue and letting user search/filter from Drop Down to select Single/Multiple entries.

Ability to disable file preview in Box for Slack integration
Whenever I share or hyperlink a Box link in Slack, it automatically attaches a Box preview card. This clutters messages and isn’t always necessary. Could you please check whether Box’s Slack integration settings allow us to disable or limit automatic link previews? This does not seem to be a feature I can disable on my account alone.
According to Box documentation, this can be managed from the Box Admin Console → Apps → Slack Integration Settings, by disabling “Automatic link previews in Slack.”
We would like to be able to be able to individually disable the file preview.
1 votePlease consider that this feature would need to be provided by Slack (as opposed to the integration app builder), similarly as it is already offered for open http links.

Masking Sensitive Fields in a Box Form
Posting a customer feature request:
Box to mask the field while the person is filling out the Box form. (i.e. Right after the SSN field is inputted, the Form field automatically gets masked).
Also requesting to have the fields masked in viewing a form submission within Box.
Ideally when building out the form, we can have a checklist next to the field indicating "mask for sensitivity" or something like that.

Add Section Divider Lines and Blank Fields for Cleaner Forms
I would recommend adding divider lines to allow cleaner grouping or sectioning of fields in a form. It would also be helpful to have "blank" field for better organizing when adding fields in two columns but the number of fields for a particular topic is an odd number. Having a blank filler field would allow starting the next topic on the next row rather than beside a field that isn't related. This would make the form look cleaner and be easier for end-users to follow.
2 votesWe've released the static text field that should resolve the blank field request and we've decided to prioritize multi page forms which could serve as a workaround for Divider lines.

Enhance Metadata Input Fields in Box Forms (Multi-line Support & Character Limit)
[Background and Problem]
A customer is looking to migrate their FAQ management system from Microsoft Lists to Box. Their plan is to store the FAQ answers as metadata. However, we have received feedback that this is impractical because the metadata input field in Box Forms is restricted to a single line, making it difficult to enter long answers.Below are our feature improvement requests.
Multi-line Input Support
We request the ability to either adjust the height of the text input field for metadata, or to select the same format as the "Long Text" field for metadata fields.Increased Character Limit…

Add Signature field to Box Forms
It would be helpful to be able to include a signature field for a Box form submission. In cases where a user submits a purchase request form, we'd like to also show that they have signed/approved the information being passed (which is something we currently do when a user fills out the form and signs before submission to the procurement team). Being able to include a signature field in the form would save users multiple steps and closely approximate the experience of filling out a form and signing it.

Multiple people submit a form in an order, then 1 document is created
Multiple people submit 1 form in an order. Once everyone has submitted their answers, 1 document is generated from that form.

Regarding the time it takes for scheduled reports to be generated
Content: The Box support site mentions that report generation can take up to 12 hours.
Most reports are usually generated within a few minutes to a few tens of minutes, but scheduled reports often take about 12 hours to be output.
Although it is within the expected range, waiting half a day for the output affects business operations, so we request a functional improvement to shorten the time it takes for reports to be generated.(日本語)
件名：スケジュールされたレポートが出力されるまでの時間について
内容：Boxサポートサイトにレポートの生成には最大で12時間かかる場合があると記載されております。
ほどんどのレポートは数分から数十分程で出力されることが多いですが、スケジュールされたレポートの場合出力されるまでに12時間程かかることがとても多いです。
範囲内ですが、出力までに半日かかるのは業務に影響がある為、レポート出力されるまでの時間帯を短縮されるよう機能改善要望をします。28 votes -
Support for Multiple Upload Zones in Box Forms + Relay
Summary:
Enable the creation of multiple, distinct file upload zones within a single application or embed experience—for example, within a Box Doc Gen-powered form or workflow.Details:
Today, applications built with Box’s Form capabilities typically support a single upload zone or file request area. This limits the ability to organize incoming files contextually during intake or data collection workflows.We’re requesting support for multiple upload zones in the same app or form—each mapped to a different folder, metadata tag, or Doc Gen trigger.
Example Use Case – Box Doc Gen for Application Processing:
Imagine a form that uses Box Doc…4 votes -
Enable True/False Metadata Mapping for Checkboxes and Radio Buttons in Box Forms
Description:
Today in Box Forms, checkbox and radio button inputs are not natively mapped to Boolean metadata fields (true/false or yes/no), which limits the ability to trigger workflows or create metadata-driven views based on user responses.Feature Request:
Allow checkboxes and radio buttons in Box Forms to map directly to Boolean metadata fields:If a checkbox is checked, metadata should reflect “true”; if unchecked, “false.”
For yes/no radio button questions, allow mapping directly to true/false metadata fields.
Impact & Value:
Streamlines workflow automation with Box Relay (e.g., trigger based on form input).
Enables metadata-driven views (e.g., show only records where…

Box Forms Input UI
When creating a form in Box Forms, it would be very helpful to be able to order questions in a configurable way or to at least be able to sort them. Currently, they are displayed in the order they were entered into Box (you can see this in the left nav bar, as well as pulldowns when selecting needed form fields), but if one were creating/managing a form over time, it becomes more difficult to track all of the form fields or to easily identify them.
It would also be very helpful to be able to name the logic flows,…

Bulk change link permissions for subfolders and files
As it stands if you create a folder with shared link permissions to be invited people only and then you add files and subfolders, if you change the permissions of the parent folder to change to anyone in your company, they don't propagate, nor do files added after inherit the parent folders permissions which were changed previously. It would be good if when making a change that you are prompted to allow waterfall permissions to subfolders and files or to not. I know this can be done with CLI, but there should be an easier way for end users to…
1 voteThank you for the insights. At the movement each shared link is viewed as a individual unit. We will continue to gather interest in such a capability to perform bulk actions.

Do not send notifications to group members when inviting a group to Hubs, as is the case when inviting a group to a folder.
Currently, when you invite a group to Box Hubs, all group members receive a notification.
However, if there are many group members, if all group members receive the email, it may violate some rules of Exchange Online.
Therefore, I would like to see an improvement so that notifications are not sent to group members when inviting a group to Hubs, as is the case when inviting a group to a folder.

＜フォルダへのグループ招待時のようにHubsへのグループ招待時もグループメンバーへの通知を送信しない＞
現在Box Hubsでグループを招待すると、グループメンバー全員に通知が届きます。
しかし、グループメンバーが多い場合、グループメンバー全員がメールを受信すると、受信するExchange Onlineの何らかのルールに抵触する可能性があります。
そのため、フォルダへのグループ招待時のように、Hubsへのグループ招待時もグループメンバーへの通知が送信されないように改善してほしいです。24 votesThank you for your request. We will take it into account but this feature is not planned yet. We may get back to it in the future.

User dropdown for Box Forms
In Box Forms it would be very convenient to have a User dropdown field.
Many of our workflows have a user fill out a form, which is then rendered into a document and sent for approval - and often, approvers are not static (e.g. their manager).
It would be very convenient if they could select another Box user with a similar experience to the collaboration dialog, or when you're adding to a Box Sign - a few characters from their name or email will show matching users. This field would then expose both the user's name and their email as…

Disposition Report should be able to show files that were deleted in the past
It's important for GxP compliance and ease of auditing to know what files were disposed of in the past, or during a specific period, like in the last 30 days, last 6 months, etc.
Disposition report should be able to show previous deletions, not just upcoming deletions, and admins should be able to filter by retention policy, and date.

We would like to see Box Hubs have a separate shared link permission setting
Currently, Hub shared links can be allowed from “Enterprise Setting” > “Content & Sharing”, but with the current settings, if Hub shared links are disabled, general folder and file shared links will also be restricted, which is very inconvenient.
Therefore, please consider making the shared link setting of the Hub independent, and allow shared links to be allowed for each individual Hub.【日本語】
現在Hubの共有リンクは、「管理コンソール」＞「コンテンツと共有」から許可できますが、現在の設定値ではHubの共有リンクを禁止すると、通常のフォルダとファイルの共有リンクにも制限がかかってしまい非常に不便です。
そのためHubの共有リンク設定を独立させ、Hub個別で共有リンクの許可を行えるよう検討をお願いします。11 votes
