  2. Real-Time Reporting on Usage

    For any folder or user we should be able to see what their usage patterns are like without needing to run ad hoc reports. Reports are currently very slow and it's very difficult for the team to know simple information like "did X collaborator view the folder", "who has viewed folder X", "has anyone downloaded any files from X". Even reports themselves are difficult to set up because often you need to make sure to select sub-folders. I'm right now waiting over 30 minutes to answer the question, did X external collaborator view folder Y.

  3. Improve Excel edit management

    The synch for Excel does not seem to work very consistently or effectively. Simple edits on a table caused the file to split into 4 separate versions.

  4. Configure file uploading for .extension files

    Box synchronization issue comes if file name is started from .extension. Same thing works fine during manual uploading process. A provision should be added to configure the filter settings to upload during file synchronization.

  6. Rename dialog - for open file in Box web interface from Box Drive "Error updating an item..."

    For me, the most common Box Drive updating error is a "Unsupported Name" (i am a Windows user). Please, make the "Error updating an item..." dialog more useful - give the opportunity to rename the file "in place", or at least the way to open the file in a Box web interface to correct the error

  8. Better support for developer API

    Insufficient support available for developer tools. Posted to forums yielded zero responses, how would you like to engage your platform?

    all API calls yield useless error with no documentation:

    error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line

  9. Enable option (e.g. Shield Classification tag) where users must provide a reason for changing a metadata value when updating a document

    Enable option (e.g. Shield Classification tag) where users must provide a reason for changing a metadata value when updating a document.

    This would be for very important documents.

  13. Feature that allows end users who are collaborating on a folder to see information about deleted items

    If someone accidentally deletes a folder or file, it needs to be recovered as soon as possible because it will be completely deleted within a certain period of time.
    However, by the time the end user realizes that the item has been deleted, it may already be too late and the item may have completely disappeared.

    The sooner the end user can confirm the information about the deletion, the sooner it can be dealt with.
    Reports should not be easily exported by end users, but should be able to be checked promptly by other means.

    Please add a feature that…

  14. Update Email Format

    Allow formatting of the email. When received on an Outlook Exchange Email Server, the button and the "Review Document" phase are the same color. Also, the copy and paste link should wrap to fit the screen instead of running the entire long URL on one line. When it is all on one line, the signer has to search and scroll side to side to find the button.

  15. Add custom Box metadata to the data that Airtable can access through their integration

    The Airtable + Box integration is very interesting but today when you link a Box folder to Airtable it only pulls over basic FILE metadata and not any of the custom metadata that maybe attached to the file or folder. If Airtable could pull the custom metadata and use that in the data view we could easily create a Metadata View of the folder that would be very useful for cases like Contracts or DAM. Metadata views was something Box was planning on the roadmap and then went away. So many customers want a metadata view of a folder this…

  16. Auto-creation of Folder Tree through Box for Salesforce

    To create a new workspace through the VisualForce window for Box in Salesforce, you click a button. I'd like to be able to set a folder tree structure through the Box Settings in Salesforce so that every time I click that button, Box automatically makes the same folder tree structure for every new workspace.

  17. Unify the operation when tapping a shared link on a mobile terminal.

    When you tap the shared link pasted in an email etc.
    I currently understand that the behavior will be as follows.

    ・ When you tap the "Move to folder" button in the invitation email
    ➩ The browser login screen is displayed

    ・ When you tap the shared link of "Company user" or "Invited user" in the email
    ➩ Asked if you want to open it with the app

    ・ When you tap the "everyone who knows the link" shared link in the email
    ➩ The file is displayed on m.box.com

    Please change this operation so that it becomes the following…

  19. Continue to see the folder that a user is invited to after accepting invitation, though they may have access to the parent folder.

    If you have access rights to a folder higher than the invited folder, when you click "Accept invitation", the invited folder should be displayed.
    /招待されたフォルダより上位フォルダにアクセス権を持っていた場合に、招待を承認をクリックした際、招待されたフォルダが表示されるようにして欲しい

    When you click Accept Invitation in the email sent to you when you collaborate, the invited folder will normally be displayed in your browser.
    However, if you already have access to the top folder of the invited folder, the top folder will be displayed when you click accept invitation.
    Since the behavior is different between the newly invited folder and the one with access rights to the top folder,
    can we make it so that…

  20. Enhance User Details Report to indicate storage used in 'Bytes'

    Show the storage used in Bytes in User Details Report:
    When we run the user details reports from the admin console, we notice that there is users showing as owning 0 amounts of storage, however when we look at the account manually, we can see that they do own content in their accounts. The User Details Report shows storage used in MB. We need to be able to report accurate metrics on the usage of Box across our departments on storage used.
    We are recommending that the Storage Used column please be measured in Bytes so we can accurately determine…
