Groups visibility for end users
Allow users to see which groups they are a part of and who is in them. Potential workaround provided here: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-How-To-Forum/Box-Groups-Visibility-for-Users/m-p/26075/highlight/true#M2052
If some businesses want this restricted, this could be an Enterprise checkbox feature?

Ability to use "Apply to all folders" when adjusting column width in file explorer
Thousands of subfolders with large structure; adjusting column width of each folder is not efficient

Add support for Canon, Nikon, Sony images
Supported by Google Drive.
Canon = .cr2
Nikon = .nef
Sony = .arw6 votesThank you for the submission! This is not planned.
We don’t see enough customer demand for this yet, and supporting every additional content type takes a significant amount of engineering time and effort.
We suggest using the Open With Preview framework which should give third-parties (the company in this case) the ability to integrate a viewer for these file types as part of Preview.

Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

Enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0
We use an in-house IdP. This IdP leverages OAuth2 OpenID. It does not use SAML 2.0
Therefore we need Box to have the capability to enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0

Support for Macro-enabled Files
Macro-enabled Excel files (xlsm) can be previewed in Box (albeit a little slow to generate preview), but macro-enabled Word files (docm) cannot be previewed.
Neither document type is officially listed as a supported file type (https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Your-Content/What-file-types-are-supported-by-Box-s-Content-Preview/ta-p/327), so it would be expected that both work the same way (either be previewable or not).

We understand this use case, however it is not a current priority for the team. We will let you know if anything changes.

Thanks for the suggestion! We currently do not have plans to integrate tasks with calendar applications. Please continue to submit your use cases here, as we may revisit in a future planning cycle based on customer demand.

Event Stream notification for Admin Console changes
We need to monitor security of our environment and want to be able to identify and flag, via the Event Stream, when any Admin Console setting is changed.
This is available via the UI in User Reports, but is not in the Event Stream.
This is especially important for enterprises who rely on SIEM tools like Splunk and QRadar to alert to unauthorized actions.

Open Shared Link Controls: Only [specified roles in the folder] can create open links
REQUEST: The ability for admins to choose which roles (Editor, Viewer Uploader, etc.) are able to create open ('people with the link') links in folder they're in.
Currently, if you are a collaborator with permissions to create/edit a shared link, you can choose any of the 3 shared link permissions levels.
ADMIN STORY: "I want to require that only Co-Owners in folders can create open shared links. Editors and below can create shared links, but they won't be able to chase the permission to 'people with the link."
CONTEXT: Many large enterprises, and even smaller ones with a security focused…

Favorite a Note as a non-collaborator
I most often see this when there is a company-wide Note that I can edit but not Favorite because I have not explicitly been collaborated in, which is a confusing experience.

Extend collaborations further than the default auto-expiration timeframe
When collaboration auto-expiration is in place on an enterprise level, folder owners can only extend the collaboration up to the default auto expiration timeframe. For example, if the enterprise has collaboration auto-expiration set at 90 days, the folder owner can currently only extend the collaboration for another 90 days. We would like for the folder owner to be able to extend the collaboration for a time period longer than the set collaboration auto-expiration.
6 votesWhile we like this idea, it is not currently planned at this time.

Metadata field for a user name - ability to @mention or tie a metadata field to a specific user
Similar to comments or tasks, it would be helpful to be able to autofill and insert a user's name in a metadata field.
There are a lot of use cases here, e.g. establishing the content owner since oftentimes that is different from the folder owner and not easily discernible or searchable.
Current workaround would be to use the text metadata field, which leaves room for user error, typos, or using different variations on people's names. A dropdown list helps with that but isn't a feasible option if you're choosing from a large set of users.
6 votesThis is still on our roadmap but has been rescheduled for the second half of 2026.

Thanks for the suggestion! We don’t currently plan to increase this limit given the potential performance impact this would have on page load times. We are, however, looking into alternate solutions for pagination.

Drag & Drop Uploads to subfolders, not just current folder
In legacy UI, you could drag & drop to either the current folder OR one of the sub-folders of the current folder by hovering over it.
In Amsterdam, drag and drop is only supported for the CURRENT folder, not the subfolders.
This request is to bring back drag and drop to subfolders in the Amsterdam UI.
6 votesThis was an intentional UX change in Amsterdam.

Netsuite v2 - admin option to turn off choice of existing vs new folder in widget
We would prefer that folders are always created via the integration ('default') rather than always giving the option to select an existing folder as well. This could be a configuration admins can turn on/off.
6 votesNot currently planned as an out of the box feature. Customers can explore customizing the integration via SuiteScript to meet this use case.
