  1. Hub Collaboration Report

    Box Hubs is a convenient feature that we use in our daily operations.
    We would like to regularly perform checks to make sure there are no users who have been unintentionally invited to our Hubs.

    Currently, we can check this through the UI, such as the Admin Console or the [Share] screen of each relevant Hub, but there is no way to obtain a list.
    If there were a function similar to the Collaboration Report that could export a report of all users invited to each Hub, our work would be much smoother.


    Hubに意図せず招待されたユーザーがいないか定期的に棚卸作業を実施したいです。
    現在は、管理コンソールや対象のHub画面の[共有]などUI上から確認できますが、一覧を取得する方法がありません。
    コラボレーションレポートのように各Hubに招待されているユーザーをレポートで出力できる機能を実装してほしいです。

  2. Box Sign requests default "my requests" folder

    Box Sign requests default to save into a "my requests" folder for all users. We don't always need the sign request saved into our regular Box folder structure and having a separate place for each user to send their requests to would be more beneficial.

  3. More Granular options for Box Sign Reminders

    Right now the reminders for Box sign are pre-set to:
    "day 3, 8, 13 and 18"

    We would like to be able to set when we would like reminders to be sent rather than be limited to those options.

  4. FIX the SEARCH to search exact terms and support advanced search parameters

    There are several major issues here, search should be powerful in order to make the tool as useful as possible. It is to the point now that we are storing so much information on Box that not having a search tool that actually works is causing us serious headache and loss of productivity.

    1. Search returns results for all forms of a word, how is it helpful to be absolutely unable to narrow a search. For example, if I search for "Government" (yes, even when using quotes) I get results including government, governance, govern, etc. Thanks Box, you have now included…

  5. Shared Link options via Outlook.

    We want to be able to select Shared Link options via Outlook.

    For example, the default setting of [Shared Link] is “People in ***(company name)”.
    Other Shared Link options (Ex: People with the link) cannot be selected, when users “Attach from Box” via Outlook.

    It would be more convenient for users if they can change Shared Link options via Outlook (without opening Box Web App).

  6. Enable shared link expiration notifications for user that enabled the shared link

    For a closed folder structure, where the primary admin owns all content, Box should give the ability to 1) disable shared link expiration notifications for folder owners and 2) enable them specifically for the users that created the shared link to begin with.

    Even if the former will not be changed, the latter behavior would be important for a closed folder structure.

  7. Ability to zip/unzip large files from within Box so transport to/from Box isn't a huge bandwidth or time-consuming issue.

    Many folks are requesting or have requested the ability to zip/unzip large files from within Box and being able to view them from within Box so transport to/from Box isn't a huge bandwidth or time-consuming issue. Zipping large files is a must-have in these days of high-resolution images and A/V technology.

  8. File Shortcuts

    I want to be able to have file shortcuts. They are just pointers to a file that can be placed in other folders throughout the file system. This makes it seem like there are copies of the file in multiple folders and all of the copies get updated whenever one gets updated because its actually one file with a bunch of references pointing to it.

    We understand the convenience that implementing this feature would bring, but recommend using the existing Bookmarks feature as a more efficient and simplified means for achieving the desired behavior.

  9. Make API rate limits more sophisticated, especially for large enterprises

    When working with a Box Enterprise that has tens of thousands of users, scripts designed to do things like user information syncing, group syncing, or user provisioning/deprovisioning often run into real issues with the Box API rate limits.

    Some calls (e.g. downloading or uploading a file) are clearly significantly more resource-intensive than others (e.g. getting a user’s aliases). The method Google has implemented for the Gmail API (see https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota) seems like a really great way to balance the need to protect the back-end systems against the need for increased performance for less-intensive calls. It would be nice if Box…

  10. Request Compliance Reports from Admin Console

    It would be great if customers could request SOC reports (and possibly other Compliance reports) directly from the Admin Console. This way requests go to the right people right away, expediting the report return rate!

    As we work to build out a more robust compliance framework, this is absolutely something we’ll be considering. However, it is not on the near-term roadmap.

  11. Box Drive Should Show Files With Illegal Filenames or Characters

    We need Box Drive to be able to point to the offending error in Windows Explorer or Finder. Click on the offending file, folder is opened and file is selected in Windows Explorer or Finder in order to fix.

    This is not something that we have on the roadmap for the foreseeable future. Notifications were suppressed for these items and we will be investigating different ways to make problem items in general more discoverable.

  13. Expose EXIF Metadata in the Box Drive when Media (Photo, etc.) is Uploaded via Box Drive or Web App

    We sort hundreds of thousands of photos taken by our users. We need to be able to sort within Box Drive in a Windows Explorer view, and one of the ways they sort is via the Date Taken attribute.

  14. Metadata Versioning History

    As we need to meet specific regulatory or compliance requirements, it's helpful to have a history of the metadata attributes that are applied to a folder or file.

    It would be ideal if this was versioned on files/folders in the UI or reportable via user reports.

    Although we do not plan to introduce this feature in the near term, we recognize its importance. We will certainly keep this in mind for future roadmap inclusion and we will keep the status of this request updated to accurately reflect our current position.

  15. Report / Customizable dashboard for a workflow

    I would like to get an overall view of my workflow and which files are at which stages, including:
    - How many files are in Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, etc.
    - How many files have completed
    - How many files were denied (or stopped in process)

  18. Tansfer Form Ownership

    I would like the ability to transfer forms to other users. Reasons below:

    1. If employees are going on extended leave or parental leave and someone else is in charge of managing these forms.

    2. If initial set up is completed by an admin but then continually managed by another team.

    I am told form ownership transferring will be available only on deletion of a user account in a future release but would like it to not be reliant on the deletion of a user.

  19. Adding AI activities to the User Activity Report

    Box AI reporting is currently only available to tenants on the Enterprise Plus plan.
    Box AI is now available to tenants with the business plan or above, but since operation logs cannot be confirmed from reports, auditing is not possible, making it unusable for businesses and posing a fatal security flaw.
    In order to use and utilize Box AI, please make sure that AI activities are output regardless of your plan.

    (日本語訳)
    ユーザーアクティビティレポートのAIアクティビティの追加

    現在Box AIに関するレポート機能を使用できるのは、Enterprise Plusプランを利用しているテナントのみです。
    businessプラン以上のテナントでもBox AIが利用できるようになりましたが、レポートから操作ログが確認できない状態では監査ができないため、企業として利用できずセキュリティ的に致命的な欠陥があります。
    企業でBox AIを利用・活用するため、プランに関わらずBoxAIに関するアクティビティが出力されるよう改修をしてください。

  20. Auto Classification policy does not work when folders are copied or moved

    We would like to improve the behavior so that the auto-classification policy works correctly for files within the folder, even if the folder is copied or moved.

    【Details】
    Currently, the Auto Classification policy works correctly when files are copied or moved, but not when folders are copied or moved.
    For example, if a ".dwg" file is stored in the "Technical Information" folder, there is an automatic classification policy that assigns the label "Technical Information" (not for external collaboration).
    In this case, when a file with a .dwg extension is moved from the "Outside Shared" folder, it is automatically assigned the…

    Unfortunately classifying child items upon move/copy operations of the parent folder is not being considered at this time.
