  1. Add new Variables to Box Relay for Naming

    In Box Relay, I find the additional variables in the Naming of Folders and Files, such as the Trigger Date, to be very helpful. However, I would like to suggest including a new variable that would reference "Workflow Starter".

    Workflow Starter variable could potentially include:

    • User's email
    • User's Last and First name
    • User's Box ID

    By incorporating this variable, I would be able to effectively organize incoming files into folders named after the user who uploaded them.

    Thank you!

  2. Ability to see who locked a file

    identify who locked a file within Box Drive. If there is a file locked, it would be helpful to show the collaborator who has locked the file.

  3. Items to be included in "GxP_Release_Notes 【日本語】 「GxP_Release_Notes」に掲載いただきたい事項につい

    GxP option is enabled.
    For validation purposes, change management of features released in Box must be done quarterly.
    Specifically, new features to be released to Box are checked in advance, and features that are undesirable to be applied are set to be unavailable.

    Currently, "GxPReleaseNotes" lists the features that will be released to Box.
    However, it does not state whether the feature can be enabled or disabled in the management console.
    It also does not state at what point (version) what features will be added.

    Therefore, you will need to read through all of Box's release notes and…

  4. PII and PI fields for text within Boxnotes for granular access control

    Customer-facing workers would like to be able to create, store and manage information about their customers in order to better serve them. This often involves storing personally-identifiable information (PII) within Boxnotes. The feature request is the ability to mark or tag specific pieces of text (such as a person's name for example) as PII and control who has access to view such PII. This is because many knowledge workers are part of large distributed teams, and many of the team members need access to the customer-related information within Boxnotes, but not the PII. This would be a way to make…

  5. different versioning rules according to location

    It would be very helpful to have different versioning rules according to locations. For instance, in a specific folder you could have 10 versions of a file and in other folders 50.

  6. Automatic deletion of Teams linked folders

    I would like to see a specification that when Teams V2 linkage is done, the folders are automatically deleted along with the team deletion, or all access rights are removed, except for certain accounts.

  8. Maintain folder structure when exporting legal hold content

    Maintain folder structure when exporting legal hold content

    The legal hold export is very difficult to use because only files are downloaded and the folder structure is lost.
    Therefore, we would like to be able to download the files while maintaining the folder structure.

    リーガルホールドのエクスポートはファイルしかダウンロードされずフォルダ構成が分からなくなり非常に使い辛いです。
    そのため、フォルダ構成を維持したままダウンロードできるようにしてほしい。

  9. Larger capacity and limit for exporting legal hold content

    Larger capacity and limit for exporting legal hold content

    Currently, only two legal hold contents can be exported at a time, and the maximum export size is 4TB.
    When there are many legal hold targets, the export setting needs to be repeated many times to download them, which takes a large amount of time.
    Therefore, we would like you to revise the maximum number of targets and capacity.

    現在、リーガルホールドコンテンツのエクスポートは1度に2つまでしか対象を指定出来ず、かつ容量が4TBまでとなっております。
    リーガルホールド対象が多いとダウンロードするために何度もエクスポート設定を繰り返す必要があり、時間が大量にかかります。
    そのため、対象と容量の上限を見直しして欲しい。

  10. 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

  11. 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。

  12. 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…

  13. 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.

  14. Create an audit only mode for classification policies

    Auto-classification policies can receive an audit only mode similar to Shield Access Policies. Essentially an auto-classification policy in audit only mode will return a list of files that would have triggered an auto-classification upon upload or interaction. Shield administrators can then review the list of files that would have been classified and review for accuracy.

    Decreases risk of misclassifying content due to policy misconfigurations.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. Ability to configure Box shield alerts

    Be able to set Shield alert priority based on the severity (quantity, amount, % change) of the Box Shield anomalous behavior. Today the Shield alerts are static and apply to the category as whole and not related to a quantifiable measure of risk. a 100% increase is treated the same as a 10,000% increase.

  18. 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.

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
