  1. Allow bulk action on Shield malicious content alerts

    Allow bulk action on BoxShield malicious content alerts. We have seen an extremely high rate of positives. Individually marking files as safe is not scalable, and need to be able to do bulk updates.

  2. File request - Allow only Manage Users from an EID to upload via File Request

    In file request, have the ability to state that only a managed user in the EID or an external user that has been invited to the folder can upload, no one else. By doing this, it prevents a file request link from being randomly guessed or found on the internet AND prevents a random user from uploading bad or malware/virus infected content. The current state of requiring the user to login is too generic and doesn't meet the requirement of keeping the file request locked down. Using the collaboration role for upload is not what is needed. The File Request…

  3. Notification "new version" upload

    Notify the folder group when a new version is uploaded.
    Currently only when the first version is uploaded, a notification is sent. If version 2 is uploaded, the folder group does not get a notification.

  4. 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.

  5. Improved project/task management

    Will be great to have some of the Dropbox paper features in Box notes.

    2. Ability to tag people within the note (great to have)
    3. Improved tables -- for ex sorting (nice to have)
    4. Creating timelines (nice to have)
    5. Adding media

  6. Ability in Box Drive to have documents physically stored on PC or external driver

    In Box Drive it would be good that the documents are physically on our PC in offline mode, not just a memory copy (metadata).

    There’s an ongoing private beta for external drive support on macOS. We’ll share more details as progress is made.


    For the other request: with Box Drive on Windows, you can mark files and folders for offline use, and that content will be downloaded to your device. Starting with Box Drive for Windows v4.27, even if you quit Box Drive, all downloaded content remains available on disk and can be opened and edited.


  7. If a user locks the file, it should be only unlockable by that user and an administrator, not other Editors

    Other users unlocking defeats the purpose of locking in the first place.

  8. Create a group of previously created groups aka nested groups

    We have a group of providers that we would like to make a larger super-group of the nested smaller groups instead of adding each individual user

  9. Major/minor flagging or differentiation in their version history.

    It is important to be able to manage milestone updates to a single document that can be referred back to, both major and minor.

    Some of this has been compounded by the additional versions created by autosave when using MS Office concurrent editing.

  10. Enhanced Locking Experience on Sync (mimic file server experience) - Auto-Lock & Unlock

    Adapt the Box Sync / Box for Desktop lock/unlock experience to mimic the standard locking UX that users are familiar with from Windows file servers.
    Example screenshot from file server UX: https://cloud.box.com/s/4px71vfralrlpnj6x9sdeoquyxdellg6

    Key Components:
    -Pop-up upon double-clicking a file to ask user if they'd like to check out (lock) a file or open a read-only version
    -Auto-unlock upon closing the file

  12. User-Level Sharing Controls: Control sharing permissions at the User level

    This request is specific to controlling external sharing permissions and defaults at the user level. For example, an admin should be able to permit whether a user can generate Open Shared Links (e.g., disable open links per user), invite external collaborators, and the default shared link permission that is generated by that user, even if those users are within a folder that has external sharing enabled.

    not planned  ·  katiele responded

    We are currently focused on building groups for access to 1st and 3rd party apps and specific enterprise settings in Box rather than focusing on groups or individual users for sharing controls. Uservoice request here: pulse.box.com/admin/v3/suggestions/36670615

    To achieve granular sharing controls, you can explore using Box Shield to classify sensitive content and set access policies to that content.

  13. Security Report: Include Changes to Any Setting from Enterprise Settings

    Currently, the Security Report doesn't appear to capture quite a few settings changes that happen in Enterprise Settings in the Admin console, which is bad.

    For example, if an admin is wanting to know who changed the 'save files to device' setting on the Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Mobile tab, there's no in-product way currently to identify that. Also,

    --All Notifications tab settings except for the Compliance Email Archive settings are missing
    --ALL settings from the Apps tab are missing, meaning there are no filters/logs exposed currently for any changes to make apps available/disabled, disabling all published apps,…

  14. 'Email Shared Link' - Add Reporting for the Recipient (Who the shared links were sent to)

    When sending shared link emails (via the Shared Link modal -> Email Shared Link option) we do not report on who we sent the email to.

    REQUEST: In the UI and Excel exports, add information on who the shared link email was sent to.

  16. Save Microsoft Teams Recordings to Box

    When recording a call/meeting in Microsoft Teams, it defaults to using OneDrive as it's default storage. Currently the process of saving a recording is a manual process of downloading the recording, and uploading to Box. I'd like an option to default recording data to Box instead.

  17. Ability to see deleted items only in the trash of the user who deleted them.

    In the case that a user accidentally uploads a sensitive file to an invited folder and delete it to avoid the access of others, the folder collaborator with viewer-uploader or above access permission can find it by searching the trash and moreover he/she can restore it.
    We need to limit the ability to see deleted items only in the trash of the user who deleted them.
    It would be even better if this could be configured in the admin console.

    ユーザーが誤って招待されたフォルダに機密ファイルをアップロードし、他のユーザーのアクセスを避けるためにそれを削除した場合、ビューアー/アップローダー以上のアクセス権限を持つフォルダのコラボレータは、ごみ箱を検索することでそれを見つけることができ、さらに彼/彼女はそれを復元することができます。
    削除されたアイテムを見ることができるのは、削除したユーザーのごみ箱だけに制限する必要があります。
    これを管理コンソールで設定できればさらに良いと考えています。

  18. We would like to be able to register a group in the Configure Relay even if the group's permission setting is not "Administrators only"

    Currently, when we try to register a group in the Relay configuration, we can register the group if the group's permission setting is "Administrators only", but not if the group's permission setting is "Company" or "Group Members".
    Registration location [Enterprise Settings > Content & Sharing > Configure Relay].
    We are using "Company" and "Group Member" as the permission setting for groups to be able to respond to group invitations, etc. outside of the management console, so we would like these permission settings to be able to be registered in the Configure Relay.

    <グループの権限設定が「管理者のみ」以外の場合もBoxRelayの構成でグループを登録できるようにしてほしい>

    現在Relayの構成でグループを登録しようとするとグループの権限設定が「管理者のみ」の場合は登録できるが、
    「会社」や「グループメンバー」の場合は登録できない。【Enterprise設定>コンテンツと共有>Relayの構成】
    グループの招待など管理コンソール以外でも対応できるようグループの権限設定を「会社」や「グループメンバー」として利用しているため、
    これらの権限設定でもRelayの構成で登録できるようにしてほしい。

    Thank you for upvoting this request.

    Currently Notary support is not planned for 2024, but it's being considered for 2025.

    Please continue upvoting the request so that the product team can take into account your feedback. 

  20. 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.
