"File that triggered the flow" variable is unavailable in Box Automate.
In Box Automate, when implementing a process triggered by a file request and selecting "Move" as the "File Action," the "File that Triggered the Flow" variable is unavailable as the file to be moved.
This variable is available in Box Relay and can be used for purposes such as distributing the triggered file to a specified folder.
Without this variable, Box Automate is clearly inferior to Box Relay.
We hope that the "File that Triggered the Flow" variable will be made available soon.

Admin controls for the Solutions menu
We would like Box Admins to have the ability to manage the Solutions menu in the Box web app.
The Solutions menu can create confusion because it allows end users to contact Box Consulting directly, which may bypass internal IT, helpdesk, procurement, or governance processes.
Please consider adding admin controls to either:
1) Enable or disable the Solutions menu for the enterprise
2) Replace the default Box Consulting contact path with an internal helpdesk or support contact, similar to the support contact email setting in Admin Console (Custom Settings)This would help to route end user inquiries through the right…

ability to select a source folder and have the outcome automatically include all subfolders
In Box Automate, I created a custom extract agent and selected a source folder. However, after reviewing the run history, I noticed that only the files in the top-level source folder are processed, while files in subfolders are ignored. I would like the ability to select a source folder and have the agent automatically include all subfolders within it or give you the option to include them.
We currently have a couple scenarios where we would like to run extraction on existing files and folders in a parent folder retroactively, not just new uploads.
Thank you, and please let me…

Enable branching from any point in a previous Box AI Home conversation
▼What problem could Box solve for you?
Box AI Home provides session history and allows users to view and resume previous sessions. However, when users revisit a past conversation, they need the ability to branch from a specific point in the conversation and ask a new follow-up question without overwriting or altering the original conversation flow.Today, users may have long-running Box AI conversations involving multiple files, folders, or Hubs as sources. In many business scenarios, a user may want to go back to an earlier answer or question and explore a different direction from that exact point. For example,…

Per-Application Control for AI API
【Current Behavior】
The AI API setting in the Admin Console is currently a tenant-wide
toggle (ON/OFF). Once enabled, all custom applications (both
Server Authentication and OAuth 2.0 apps) under the enterprise
can invoke AI API endpoints. There is no mechanism to permit or
restrict AI API usage on a per-application basis.【Problem / Business Impact】
Because AI API consumption is billable, administrators cannot
selectively allow AI API access only for specific sanctioned
applications while blocking others. This creates the following
risks:- Uncontrolled billing exposure: Any application with AI API scope enabled can trigger consumption that the administrator did not sanction,…

Support Copilot Integration with Multiple Box Environments under a Single Microsoft Tenant
Many enterprises operate under a structure where a single Microsoft tenant is shared, while Box environments are separated by legal entity.
With the current limitation that Copilot × Box integration is restricted to a 1:1 relationship, it is difficult to achieve both group-wide Copilot adoption and proper information governance.
Enabling secure integration with multiple Box environments while maintaining a single Microsoft tenant would unlock significant value, including group-wide AI utilization, greater flexibility for M&A and organizational restructuring, and the avoidance of unnecessary Box environment consolidation or Microsoft tenant separation.<日本語>

Enhancing View Visibility with Text and Background Customization
I received feedback from a customer regarding improving visibility within views.
They specifically requested the following enhancements:
・Ability to adjust text size
・Ability to change text color
・Expanded background color palette, including darker color optionsThese improvements would allow users to better tailor the interface to their preferences and working environments (e.g., long working hours or dark mode setups).
In views with a high density of information, visibility directly impacts productivity, so we believe this would be a valuable enhancement.
=============
顧客からのフィードバックとして、ビューの可視性向上に関する要望をいただきました。
具体的には、以下の点の改善を希望されています:
・テキストサイズを調整できる機能
・テキストカラーを変更できる機能
・背景色のカラーパレットの拡張(特にダークカラーの追加)これらの機能により、ユーザーごとの視認性や利用シーン(例:長時間の作業やダークモード環境)に応じた柔軟な表示が可能になると考えています。
特に、情報量の多いビューにおいては視認性が業務効率に直結するため、ぜひご検討いただきたいです。

Allow folder navigation and expansion directly within the Box Hubs UI
Currently, when a user clicks on a folder that has been added to a Hub, the folder opens in a separate browser tab to display the list of items.
From a User Experience (UX) perspective, we believe it is critical to keep the user flow consistent. Therefore, it is highly desirable for users to be able to expand folders and navigate their contents directly within the Hubs interface, rather than being redirected to a new tab.
Request: We kindly request the implementation of a feature that allows folder expansion and navigation within the Box Hubs UI. Furthermore, it would be…

Ability to hide a Hub from personal view
I would like the option to hide specific Hubs from my view without leaving or losing access to them. This would allow me to declutter my Hub list and focus on the Hubs most relevant to my current work.
Use Case
- I have access to multiple Hubs but only actively use a few on a regular basis
- Some Hubs are for reference only or used infrequently
- My Hub list has become cluttered, making it harder to find the Hubs I need quickly
Proposed Functionality
- Add a "Hide from view" option for individual Hubs
- Hidden Hubs would not appear in my…

New Box Drive for Windows (Cloud Files): Improve Explorer UX during startup/connecting to avoid unstable/incorrect folder state
Problem (What problem could Box solve for you?)
When Windows starts, the new Box Drive (Cloud Files architecture) auto-connects. During this “connecting/initializing” period, the Box Drive folder becomes visible in File Explorer even though Box Drive is not fully running/ready. The folder view is unstable: some items show missing icons/status, and opening folders can result in errors. This happens consistently across multiple users in our pilot.
This behavior may be aligned with the feature “Box Drive folders remain accessible even when the Box Drive application is not running,” but exposing a partially-initialized state causes confusion and support tickets (users think…4 votes -
Automatic Approval Removal When Deleting Apps
Since the maximum number of app approvals is limited to 100, periodic deletion of apps is required. However, at present we must request Box to perform these deletions.
We’d like both JWT and OAuth authentication to automatically revoke authorization when an app is deleted in the developer console.
If the service account owns any content, we would like a dialog similar to the one shown when deleting a user, allowing us to choose whether to move or delete the content.
アプリ承認の上限数が100であるため、定期的な削除が必要ですが、現状はBoxに依頼をする必要があります。
JWT 認証と OAuth認証の両方で、開発者コンソールでアプリを削除したときに自動的に承認を削除するようにして欲しいです。
もしサービスアカウントがコンテンツを持っている場合は、ユーザーの削除と同様のダイアログを表示してコンテンツを移動、削除どちらかを選択させたいです。4 votes -

Enable Deep Research Mode for Box AI Hubs
<Current Observation>
Box AI Hubs provides fast responses, which is great. However, for complex queries, users sometimes need more comprehensive and well-rounded answers.<Suggestion>
It would be helpful to have an optional "Deep Research" mode, similar to ChatGPT's approach, where the system takes more time (even up to 30 minutes) to review all relevant files in the Hub and generate a deeper, more thorough response.
This feature would make Box AI Hubs significantly more useful for detailed research and decision-making.<タイトル>
Box AI HubsにDeep Researchモードを追加してほしい<現状の課題>
Box AI Hubsは回答生成が速く便利ですが、複雑な質問に対しては、より総合的で深い回答が求められる場合があります。<改善要望>
ChatGPTの「Deep Research」モードのように、時間がかかっても(例:30分程度)、Hub内の関連ファイルをより広く確認し、深い回答を生成するオプションがあると非常に助かります。
この機能により、Box AI Hubsは詳細な調査や意思決定において、さらに有用になると思います。4 votes -

- Completely external users (standard 30-day restriction)
- Trusted partners/affiliated organizations (customizable access duration)
- Specific trusted domains with distinct access rulesUse Case Example:
