  1. Regardless of the recycle bin deadline, legal holds are a priority

    Regardless of the recycle bin deadline, legal holds are a priority

    Under the current legal hold specification, the following contents are deleted from the recycle bin and become invisible even if a legal hold is applied when a deadline is set in the recycle bin.
    This is a very unfortunate specification, and we would like to see it improved so that legal holds are prioritized over recycle bin expiration dates and not deleted.

    ■Patterns that become invisible from the Recycle Bin
    Folders and files deleted before legal hold
    Folders/files deleted after legal hold

    現状のリーガルホールド仕様ではごみ箱に期限を設定しているとリーガルホールドをかけても下記コンテンツはごみ箱から削除され見えなくなってしまいます。
    これは非常に残念な仕様です、そのため、リーガルホールドが優先され削除されないように改善して欲しい。

    ■ごみ箱から見えなくなるパターン
    ・リーガルホールド前に削除されたフォルダ・ファイル
    ・リーガルホールド後に削除されたフォルダ

  2. Don't move or delete content with legal holds to a different folder

    Don't move or delete content with legal holds to a different folder

    The current specification is that content with a legal hold can be moved or deleted.
    However, this is undesirable in a situation where fraud has been clarified.
    Therefore, we would like to see an improvement so that it cannot be moved to another folder or deleted.

    リーガルホールドを設定したコンテンツを別フォルダへの移動や削除が出来ないようにして欲しい

    リーガルホールドを設定したコンテンツが現状は移動や削除可能な仕様になっています。
    しかし、不正が明確化した状況ではこれは望ましくないです。
    そのため、別フォルダへの移動や削除が出来ないように改善してほしい。

  3. Ability to be unlocked only with the permission of the person who set the lock

    With the current file locking feature, even if a file is locked, it can be unlocked by another user.
    In this case, the file that was originally supposed to be updated cannot be updated and is saved as another file.
    The result is a lot of conflict files and a lot of work to merge all the information.

    [The features we want]
    When editing a file, the file is completely locked.
    If other users want to edit this file, they will ask the user who locked it to unlock it.
    It will only be unlocked if the user who put…

  4. Folders and Files reports - exclude filename

    Provide the ability to exclude filename from "Folders and Files" reports. We would like to be able to exclude this field since it may contain sensitive data. This is currently a field that is not able to be excluded. If there is a required field we would prefer if to be File ID. This is important since we would like to be able to perform usage analysis but do not want to provide sensitive data (even metadata) to our data analysts.

  6. Bring excel online previewer to mobile

    Bring the features of Excel Online Previewer to the mobile app. Currently formatting is stripped and long text boxes are cutoff when previewing an excel document on mobile. It would be ideal to have the formatting remain the same and be viewable within preview, OR as a backup to be able to drag to resize directly from within preview - like you can on desktop.

  7. MFA self reset up

    Currently, when a user get locked out from their own account when the MFA is turned on, they need to contact Box support team to get it usable again.
    It would be great if users can self reset from the login screen without submitting a support ticket.

  9. Setting to be notified when a specific file, folder, or note is modified.

    We have a team that needs to be notified when a Note is modified. They are using comments to achieve this. It would be a great setting option to receive notifications on modifications to a specific file, folder or note.
    Please let me know if there is a solution for this that I am not aware of.

  10. Alias files/ links to files

    Oftentimes, a file has more than just one "right place" within a folder structure.
    For example, if you have a folder for the HR-department and a folder for the legal-team, both teams need to access the subfolder "employment contracts".
    On local Windows Explorer or Apple Finder it is possible to create alias-files that link to the "main-file", so you can access a file from multiple locations.
    Such a feature is not available in Box. Since it is cruicial for files that needs to be accessed from different locations/ teams, I am asking you to implement this feature.

    Thank you!

  11. The notice for email when a folder is locked by LFO.

    Folders may be locked in LFO.
    The problem is recognized only when the user manipulates the folder or file.
    If the problem is not detected as soon as it occurs, it will affect business operations.
    Please notify us via email when a folder is locked by LFO.

    【LFOでフォルダがロックされた際のメール通知】
    LFOでフォルダがロックされることがあります。
    ユーザーがフォルダやファイルの操作を行うときにはじめて問題を認識します。
    問題が発生してすぐに検知できないと業務に影響があります。
    LFOでフォルダにロックがかかったときにメールで通知してください。

  12. Ability to create a stamp template for my company within Box Sign

    I work in the field of mental health, where they require a visible "stamp" that denotes who received a document and the date it was received. It would be very helpful if I had the ability to create a stamp template within Box Sign which can fulfill this requirement. Currently, we would have to create a new stamp any time a document would need to be stamped, which is very time consuming. The only way around this currently is to physically stamp the document and then upload it, which is also time consuming.

  13. Box needs an ability to pause certain file uploads/transfers

    When trying to upload files to meet a deadline, I sometimes have large working files using up all my transfer space. The ability to pause or stop certain files from uploading, prioritizing others would be extremely helpful. This would also be beneficial for metered connections while travelling. Thanks.

  14. Admin-level alert notification on certain Box Drive permission errors

    Users can create folders in Box Drive at the root level. In a closed folder taxonomy, the folder does not sync and fails with permission and/or problem item errors. If a user does not address the notification (or notifications are disabled), users can continue to create content in the unsynced folders. Icon overlays are also not reliable, so this will not be discovered until the content is lost due to hardware failure or software/OS reload. Consider alerting admins of these issues via the event stream or Shield-type alerts to prevent data loss, or disabling the creation of folders this way.

  15. Ability to customize the subject line of emails sent automatically by Box Relay

    We can customize the message that appears in the body of the email when we create an approval task in Box Relay.
    However, for security reasons, we instruct our employees to delete emails they don't remember without opening them, so the current email subject line that is automatically sent by Box Relay is likely to be deleted.
    We would like to have the ability to customize the subject line as well as the message, so that recipients can grasp the content at a glance.

    Box Relayで自動送信されるメール件名をカスタマイズする機能

    Box Relayで承認タスクを作成する際、メールの本文に表示されるメッセージをカスタマイズすることができます。
    しかし、セキュリティ上、身に覚えのないメールは開かず削除するよう社員に指導しているため、現在のBox Relayで自動送信されるメール件名では、削除されてしまう可能性が高いです。
    受信者が一目で内容を把握できる件名にしたいため、メッセージだけではなく件名をカスタマイズできる機能を希望します。

  16. Bring back previous method of highlighting files

    Having to click on the checkbox to the right of files is FAR less intuitive than being able to click anywhere on the body of the file "line." It was much easier and more efficient to be able to just click and shift/ctrl click to highlight multiple files.

  18. Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, rather than all users

    Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, which is faster, rather than pull data for all users, which can take way too long.

  19. Move the "Select" checkbox to be near the filename

    (Box web app) I used to be able to select multiple files to move or download by clicking near the filename in Box. I now have to use the "Select" checkbox, which is far to the right of the filename, and I select the wrong files because of this. Please move the "Select" checkbox immediately to the left of the filename to easily select multiple files, or return previous functionality to select multiple files by clicking on them.
