  1. When outputting a report from the Admin Console, the user interface for searching folders cannot uniquely identify folders with the same fol

    When narrowing down the user activity report to activities under a specific folder, a search is performed by folder name, but if there are many identical folder names, it is not possible to uniquely specify the folder.
    I would like to be able to display the folder path from the root or specify by folder ID.

    管理コンソールでレポートを出力する際にフォルダを検索するユーザーインターフェースで同一フォルダ名が存在すると一意に特定が出来ない

    ユーザーアクティビティレポートで特定のフォルダ配下のアクティビティに絞るときにフォルダ名で検索を実施するが同一フォルダ名が多くあると、どれが出力したいフォルダなのかが判別が出来ないのでルートからのフォルダパスを表示したりフォルダIDでの指定が出来るようにして欲しい。

  2. Rollback all files uploaded even if one fails to upload

    Under the current design, when uploading multiple files, the successful files are stored in Box, even if one of the uploads fails. As a result, subsequent processing, e.g. adding metadata, may also not take place. This is inconvenient for the user under the usecase of using File Request+Metadata. The user has to look for files that were not uploaded and has to check the metadata for files that were uploaded. And if the uploader is anonymous, it's impossible. This Pulse requests that if one or more uploads fail, the uploads of other files performed in that File Request are also…

  3. Shortcut to open file directly without preview

    We would like to have the option to open a file directly without opening the preview first (or right click --> open with).
    Maybe this can be done via a shortcut or a default setting in the user preferences?
    Thanks!

  4. Upload docs to Canvas, automatic creation of repository folder.

    It would be helpful to have the ability to upload documents to steps in a Canvas workflow. Once uploaded, there should be folder within my box instance where those files are stored.

  5. Requests for additional features in Box Drive v2.33

    We have consolidated our content in Box, and have reduced the amount of space in the user area of our PCs to the point where almost no space exists.
    We also try to keep as little space on the desktop as possible, so the new features in Box Drive v2.33 are not required.

    ■Additional features that were an issue
    Saving unsynchronized files upon logout
    When logging out, users will be able to save files that have not been uploaded to Box.

    ■Functionality Improvement Requests
    Therefore, we would like to see any of the following realized for the ability to save…

  6. Template library for enterprise

    We’d love to be able to have a template folder structure that our enterprise can use to create the same folder structure over and over again. We use the same folder structure across the enterprise often. If we could create a template library that out users could access to create new Box folders with the same structure that would be super helpful.

    Thanks!

  7. Sender info in Relay

    I would like you to add a setting for "who" went to the BoxRelay event.
    For example, when managing files for the same task in the same folder, if the person in charge (uploader) and the confirmer (notification recipient) are different for each file, it would be convenient to be able to set different notification recipients according to the uploader.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    (In Japanese)
    BoxRelayのイベントで「誰が」行ったかの設定を追加してほしいです。
    例えば同一フォルダで同じ業務のファイルを管理するケースで、ファイル毎に担当者(アップローダー)と確認者(通知先)が異なる場合、アップロードした人によって通知先を別々に設定できると便利になります。

    ご検討のほどよろしくお願いいたします。

  8. Additional Information BoxShield Anomalous Download Alerts

    Include further information within the anomalous download alert to show which application\service was used. Currently, this is only available from the user activity report, which takes a while to generate.

    If the hostname and device type could be included, this would help decipher if anomalous downloads have taken place acorss multipe devices.

  9. Metadata additonal column

    Adding metadata as an additional column into Box interface which is similar to Tags can help to check the status.

    The User activity report should have option to pull the report for who add/edit status in the report and should have what the collaborators tried to add.

    The user activity report should have ability to get the Tags Add/Edit from the report.

  10. Request: Improvement of preview of high resolution movies

    Request: Improvement of preview of high resolution movie in Box

    Currently, when users preview movie files( .mov) in Box web app, sevearal issues happens depending on the files

    1. Unable to read the preview screen

    2. The preview stops suddenly in the middle of the movie file and unable to start again.

    According to the support ticket, the risk to happen the above is likely to increase when the movie file is relatively high quality/ high resolution. Actually the issues happen when we preview movie files which is 8 minute-long and 13 GB/file. So temporal workaround is to tune it and make…

  11. Grid View For Shared Links

    For people accessing a shared link on Box, without having been invited to collaborate, there ought to be an option to view files/folders/etc in "Grid View". This is available on mobile devices and when you are a collaborator -- but if you're accessing a shared link from a computer, this option is not available.

    I needed to share a folder containing several thousand photos with an email chain I was a part of. I wanted the recipients to only be able to "view and download" so sharing with a link was more appropriate than inviting them all to collaborate on…

  12. 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.

  13. Ability to stop sending email to people who has approved or signed the document by Box Sign

    In Box Sign, once sign and approve by users are completed, an email is sent to all users who has signed and approved the document.
    We would like to set up this email to be sent only to the requestor or specified users when approval is complete.

    (Japanese)
    Box Sign ユーザーの署名・承認が完了した時点で、完了した旨のメールが署名・承認を行った全ユーザーに送付されます。
    この承認完了時のメールを依頼者のみ、あるいは指定したユーザーのみに送付するような設定をしたいです。

  15. Manage Box Drive folders that sync with the Box.com - I have to uninstall Box Drive from all of my devices

    Because I cannot select which folders to sync from Box.com, I cannot use Box Drive which makes going back to One Drive extremely appealing.

    This seems like such basic functionality and it's very disappointing that Box didn't provide it - and actually took it away when moving from Box Sync.

    My idea is for Box Drive to provide the same basic functionality that Box Sync had and One Drive and Google Drive and Dropbox have.

  16. Google Workspace Add-on - Remove Collaborators

    When a customer uses the Google Workspace Add-on (either clicking the Box icon in Google Drive to move a Google document to Box OR using the Gmail integration) and that document has Collaborators who were added in Google, then Box will emails all those Collaborators invites to the new Box folder. Multiple customers have complained about this.

    For my customer, Coursera, their main content storage solution is Google. Only the Legal Team uses Box for retention. When the Legal Team moves a file from GDrive to Box, it then sends Collaboration requests to all Google Collaborators on the file (many…

  17. canvas sharing outside the organisation

    Currently one of the great things about other canvas style products is to be able to share it outside the organisation and to be able to invite a guest to contribute/edit the document.

    Currently the external user needs to have a box account I believe.

    Also a nice to have would be the ability to copy from Miro to Canvas

  19. Notify user immediately when a file is updated or uploaded.

    We would like the functions or API commands to notify user immediately when a file on the Box is updated or uploaded.
    We would like to be able to trigger the next process on file updates, so we would like the ability to be notified each time an update is made, rather than a periodic notification.

  20. Ability to customize/configure the location of the shortcut to Box Drive folder on Windows.

    We would like to have the ability to customize the location of the shortcut to Box Drive folder on Windows or to disable its creation.
    Right now, the creation of the shortcut cannot be disabled or customized (just as the cache location cannot be customised), and it's always created under c:\users\username\desktop. This is not ideal for users who are not allowed access to userprofile folder.
