We want users to easily obtain a list of file IDs
We need a way for users to bulk obtain the ID information of files located in folders for which they have permissions.
Currently, when users want to check a list of file IDs, they have to contact the Box administrator, who then exports a “Folders and Files Report” and shares it with them. Since there are many such requests, handling them is burdensome.
Could you add the “Folders and Files Report” to the reports that can be obtained from the Folder Insights screen?

ユーザーが、アクセス権限を持つフォルダ内にあるファイルのID情報を一括で取得できる方法が必要です。現在、ユーザーがファイルIDの一覧を確認したい場合、Box管理者に連絡し、管理者が「フォルダとファイルレポート」をエクスポートして共有してもらう必要があります。このような依頼が多数あるため、その対応に手間がかかっています。
フォルダとファイルレポートを、フォルダインサイト画面から取得できるレポートの種類として追加していただけませんか。

Streamline process of adding collaborators to content
Our users often create their own personal folders and then attempt to share them with their colleagues via shared links. If their colleague has not been added to the file/folder as a collaborator, they will hit a page that says "This shared file or folder has been removed or is unavailable to you." They will then email/message the content owner to request access and/or ask if they have the wrong link. This creates a lot of ad-hoc messages and emails.
It would be great if there was some kind of real-time notification process wherein the content owner was prompted to…

Schedule Retention Policy Disposition Report
There are several common reporting capabilities which appear to be missing from Retention / Disposition reports:
Ability to name & save a report configuration for future re-use
Ability to schedule a report to be run regularly - Seems like a no-brainer for topics like disposition, which inherently continuously needs review as content falls out of retention
Ability to collaborate individuals on a report so that business stakeholders can review regularly scheduled reports without needing an admin

File and Folder report include number of file versions
File and Folder report should include the number of versions associated with a file.
We routinely receive questions from Box users about which files have version history associated with them and how much storage that version history is consuming.
Today we need to open a case with Box Support to get this information but it would make this more self-service if the number of versions was included in the Admin File and Folder report.
Even better would be if users could pull a File and Folder report for their own account and have that report include the # of file…

Enhanced Hub Reporting
Content published to Hubs can be previewed across folders by any user who has access to the Hub, regardless of their folder-level permissions. While this is a great strength of Hubs, it also introduces security risks.
The current Hub reporting is not sufficient for Box Admins to properly manage this. Box Admins would like to regularly review the content published to Hubs in order to mitigate security risks.
If more detailed reporting were available, Admins could, for example, generate lists by Hub owner and ask each Hub owner to review and clean up their own Hubs.
Example fields:
Hub title…

Workflow Management Report
The new Automate features are much more powerful than the previous Relay, and I’m excited to start using them going forward. After enabling Automate, I expect many users will create workflows, so the number of workflows in a tenant will increase significantly.
Currently, I can visually check the workflows created in a tenant from the admin console, but as the number of workflows grows, it becomes difficult to review them all and properly manage them.
It would be very helpful to have a way to export or list all workflows that exist in a tenant.
Example fields:
Workflow name

Don't cancel Box Sync!
I have used Box Sync for many years, and it does exactly what I need it to do, which includes syncing all the files that I keep there and allowing them to download to my computers. Other key features are:
on my MAC, I can search the files on the entire Mac INCLUDING the Box Sync files
I want to have ALL the Box Sync files downloaded on both my computers.
Apparently neither of these is possible with Box Drive, which will make it useless for me (and certainly not better, as all the emails claim).
KEEP BOX SYNC!

Provide a Command/API to Log Out from Box Drive
Background:
There is currently no command or API available to log out from Box Drive programmatically.Request:
We would like to request the addition of a command or API that allows users to log out from Box Drive remotely. This would be particularly valuable for enterprise IT administrators who need to immediately terminate Box Drive sessions and clear local cache in the event of a device theft.Use Case:
- Remote logout of Box Drive when a PC is stolen, to prevent unauthorized access to corporate data stored in Box
- Clearing the local Box Drive cache remotely to ensure…3 votes -
Leveraging AI for administrative tasks
I’d like to leverage AI to handle administrative tasks, such as identifying users who are barely using Box and removing them if they do not need a license. Right now, I can run a report, but it would be helpful if I could ask AI to show me all low-volume users. I’d also like to be able to look at high-volume users and activity that may indicate something beyond just doing their job.

Show in Box Drive or Reveal in Finder from Box Web
When I am looking at file in Box on a web browser, I want a button that takes me straight to the file in Box Drive/a macOS Finder window. We can already do that in the other direction (see attached, "View on Box.com"); it would be convenient to be able to do this in both directions. I don't know what the Windows equivalent is. Thanks for your consideration.

More visibility of 'find and replace' feature
Regarding the search and replace function in Box Note— beyond displaying it with Ctrl+F, are there any plans to make it more accessible, such as adding it to the three-dot menu (⋯) or another more visible location?
The end users will find the feature and utilize it if they are not so familiar with shotcuts operation.3 votes -
Sync Box to an external hard drive
This should go without saying, but internal hard disks are far too small for cloud storage to sync, especially when using the cloud storage for large files such as video editing. We have several Terabytes of data on ours that we access all the time, as a group of editors. It's an absolute dealbreaker that we're forced to use the default location of the local drive to sync files using Box Desktop, and we would like the option of choosing an external hard drive or even a secondary internal drive to sync to. Dropbox, iCloud, OneDrive, and Google Drive all…

Delete developer app authorization in the Admin Console
It would be helpful to add the ability to delete (server) App Authorization without being required to contact support. Currently when in the Admin Console > Integrations > Platform Apps Manager > View > Delete App, it will pull up a message requiring Box Support to be contacted to remove the App Authorization. It would be nice to be able to do this without all the extra steps.

Make folder retention policies non-removable (or always visible) to Editors
Today, Editors can remove the visible retention policy from a file or folder’s details panel, even though the underlying non-modifiable retention policy remains active in the background. This means that after an Editor removes the visible policy, there is no indication in the UI that retention still applies, which makes it appear as though the content is not under retention at all.
This behavior causes confusion for end users and admins, and makes it harder to support clear records management and compliance because enforced retention is not transparently visible in the interface.

Make Folder Auto-Delete Retry Past-Due Items
Please improve Folder Automatic Actions so that folders with a deletion date in the past are also included in later auto-delete runs.
Currently, if deletion fails on the scheduled date for any reason, the folder remains undeleted afterward.
Requested change:
configured deletion date = processing date
→ configured deletion date <= processing date
This would make auto-delete more reliable even when processing is missed due to maintenance or a temporary issue.【In Japanese】

フォルダの自動削除で期限超過分も再処理されるよう改善してほしい＜本文＞
フォルダの自動削除機能について、削除予定日を過ぎたフォルダも後続の自動削除処理の対象になるよう改善を希望します。
現状は、指定日の削除処理が何らかの理由で失敗した場合、その後も削除されず残ります。
要望する変更内容：
設定された削除日 = 処理日
→ 設定された削除日 <= 処理日
これにより、メンテナンスや一時的な問題で当日の処理が実行できなかった場合でも、後続処理で削除できるようになり、自動削除の信頼性が向上します。3 votes -
Make login box for SSO configurable
When a Box environment switches to SSO Test Mode, the login dialog box changes so that it has two buttons: "Continue" and "Not part of <org name>." This is confusing to users - they may not know IT is testing SSO, and not know what to do to access Box at that time.
If those two buttons' labels were configurable, admins could replace that text with something clearer to their users, such as "Click her to log in with Microsoft credentials" and "Click here to log in with Box username and password."

Display full file name on mouseover
We have very long file names where file prefix can be 40 characters the same. In Box Web GRID view it's impossible to differentiate between the files without opening them. In list list view it's almost as bad. The file naming is set by customer policy and we cannot affect that.
Add a mouse over popup for files to show the whole file name for Box Web.
