Group Notifications
Add the ability to notify groups; i.e. @mention in comments, assigned task notifications in the activity pane and in Relay
75 votesWe are definitely tracking this feature, but it is not yet on the roadmap for delivery.
How would envision managing your groups?
Would you want to sync with an existing directory, or create the Groups directly in Box?

Large Folder Operation email notification when the operation is finished
I would like to have the user and admin to receive an email notification once the large folder operation (LFO) is finished so that each counterpart knows when the operation is finished.

Automatic email response for file request submitter
Would like a feature whereby the person submitting files using Box File Request receives an automatic confirmation email with a customizable message. For example, after the submitter uploads files using the File Request web widget, that person gets a email to the effect of, "Thank you for contacting us. A team member will review your submittal and follow up within 24 hours." The person would be required to provide an email address but not required to have a Box account. Many of our external customers send us application materials using File Request, and then they contact us separately wanting to…

- any logo
- the signature
36 votesThank you for this feedback. We currently do not have plans to expand custom branding to all emails. We will post updates to this thread if that changes in the future.

Enable shared link expiration notifications for user that enabled the shared link
For a closed folder structure, where the primary admin owns all content, Box should give the ability to 1) disable shared link expiration notifications for folder owners and 2) enable them specifically for the users that created the shared link to begin with.
Even if the former will not be changed, the latter behavior would be important for a closed folder structure.

Ability to customize the notification emails sent from Relay
We would like to incorporate this into Relay as a review and tracing task by forcing notifications to specific people or groups.
It is difficult to do the above with the current e-mails being sent.
It can't be reached with a single click because there is no file name or link to the trigger folder in the email only.
Therefore, we would like to see the following improvements.[About the image]
・It could be mistaken for spam.
・Most of the mail body is occupied by images, making it difficult to read fixed messages.
At the very least, We would like…25 votes -
Customize invitation notifications to approvers for new feature additions
A new feature has been added to Relay called "Invite Contact as Viewer" which will send invitation notifications to users who have already been invited to a group.
We are getting invitation notifications every time we approve something, which is causing confusion.
Please stop the invitation notifications.「担当者をビューアーとして招待する」という新機能がRelayに追加されましたが、この機能によりグループですでに招待されているユーザーに招待通知が送信されます。
承認時に毎回招待通知が届いてしまい混乱を招いています。
そのため招待通知を止めるようにしてほしいです。25 votes -

Ability for folder co-owners to recieve additional collaboration notifications
In Box, when a collaborator invites another collaborator, the owner of the folder will be notified by email that the collaborator has been added. I would like you to add the ability to send this notification to co-owners as well. Folders are often not managed by the owner alone, and co-owners need to get as much information as the folder owner.

Relay/task push notification on Mobile app
We are currently evaluating Relay so notifications on Mobile will be important for making Relay a viable solution (and will certainly make regular comments/tasks easier to access).

Ability to select external users who are collaborating on a folder to be notified of workflows created in Relay
Currently, it is possible to set external users as notification recipients for workflows created in Relay only under certain conditions.
Conditions：
・The folder/file is owned by the creator of the Relay Workflow.
・It is the external user who is invited to this folder/file that is set as the notification destination.There are many situations in which we want to send notifications to external users in Relay workflows.
However, in a tenant running a closed folder configuration, it is rare that the workflow creator is the owner of the folder.Request：
For managed users who are collaborating on folders and who…14 votes -
Hide annoying Move Items security warning popup message
Ability to suppress user popup security notification that warns about moving file will make content available to anyone with the link and to collaborators outside of your company.
Move Items
This content will be available to anyone with the link and to collaborators outside of your company.
You have chosen to move the selected item to the folder 'folder-name'. This folder has collaborators outside of your company and has a public shared link enabled. Do you want to continue?

Disable email upload notification for users who are uploading the files
We are using Box Email feature to collect all attachments from the important thread. Box sends notification after succesful upload for EACH file. Sometimes company logo in the signature is also treated as an attachment. The end result is too many emails from box.
It will be better to turn off this feature at the folder level. If folder to which the attachments get delivered could select to turn off the notifications, it would be greatly appriciated.13 votes -
Out of office notice
Hi,
it would be nice if we received messages about out of office notes or e-mail errors (wrong address) for invitations and, for example, workflows. At the moment I don't know if someone just didn't respond or didn't receive the invitation / task.

Send a notification regarding document lock/unlock timing
For teams that are actively working on a single document, the lock/unlock feature is nice to prevent version control issues. However, it would be nice to have additional notifications are this feature, namely:
- "Notify me when this file is unlocked"
- "Warn me [the person who locked the file] when the file lock is about to expire"
- "Warn me [the person who locked the file] if I've left the file locked AND inactive for more than X minutes"
Etc.
