  1. Allow the custom renaming of a report before it's run

    All the reports have a standard name (i.e. useractivityrunon2022-11-01-14-38-28Page1) and there is no ability to create a custom name. As an admin we run more than a single report in an hour and that report may be associated with a user or file name we're searching for. We need the ability to be able to customize the report name that is relevant so we don't have 5-10 reports running that all start with useractivityrunon{date and time} for example.

  2. Cannot see # of files in current folder (without subfolders)

    In order to get the # of files in a given folder, I have to look at the total files for that folder from the parent directory, and go through each subfolder and subtract from the total. This is a very silly way to do this and seems to be an oversight. Can BOX add this data?

    Same thing applies to folder size as well.

    The "Details" tab should include: Current folder: # of files, Current folder: size, Current folder / subfolders : # of files, Current folder / subfolders: size.

  3. Ability to change the initials format in Box

    Initials are heavily used in Box and I want the ability to change the format of how these are displayed as currently the only option is first letter of first name and surname (Joe Doe becomes JD), for companies that use non-standard email addresses, initials are different.

  4. Increase maximum image size for branding a File Request to above 1 MB

    Upload limit for Box File Request Company Logo Branding is only 1 MB. This is way too small when the average file size of a smartphone mobile phone camera picture is about 3MB, LinkedIn allows 8 MB and Google allows 5 MB.

    Solution: Literally just copy how Google Forms does it...........

  5. [File Request] cascade feature to allow granular uploading of files to a folder structure / subfolders.

    [File Request] feature to allow uploading files to a folder structure / subfolders. The "Submit Files" page does not provide any context regarding the linked folder name without having to manually input this, and doesn't provide subfolders to allow the user to drill down and upload files into the subfolder of which they choose (with breadcrumbs of course to navigate back to the root folder share via the File Request URL. Currently users have to create a File Request per folder or invite users in to the parent folder as a "Previewer Uploader" in order to upload.

    Alternatively, I'd just…

  6. Select and Take Action on Multiple Sign Requests | Bulk actions

    With Batch Send now available, higher volume e-signature use cases should become more and more prevalent. It'd be great to have the ability to select multiple Sent Requests for Sending a Reminder, Downloading the document, Canceling the Request, and Deleting the Request, as today this must be done on a one by one basis. This would help Box Sign users manage their requests in a more efficient way.

  7. Allow Importing of slides templates to google slides

    Want to be able to import slide templates/themes to Google Slides created from Box.

    This feature is available in google slides that are created from Google Drive but somehow not an option in BOX. (https://support.google.com/a/users/answer/9308838?hl=en)

  8. Restrict users to only some Shield label

    Currently you can choose which users can put Shield label to contents.
    However, this setting is for the whole tenant but I would like to set different types of users to some Shield label that does not apply to all the Shield labels.

  9. Box Relay: ability to save draft of workflows without setting all the required fields

    When we create new workflows or edit existing workflows in Box Relay, we cannot save draft until we complete all the required fields. So we sometimes have to re-create workflows from the begging if we cannot fill in all the fields.
    It would be more convenient if we can save draft without setting all the required fields, especially when we create new workflows.

  10. Box Web - make file icons smaller

    Prologis would like the large file icons in All Files > recent files to be smaller. As they are now, they aren't very helpful - the previews are too small, and you can't see the full name of the file, making it difficult to identify.

  12. Include owner of the relevant file in the notification e-mail when the collaboration is terminated.

    Currently, the following information is included in notification e-mails when a collaboration is canceled. 
    "There is one collaborator to be removed-[name] - [folder name] - [date to be removed]."

    The current notification email has no information about who the collaborator is.
    Please include the owner's information in the notification email so that we can contact the owner.

  13. Link to reset password available to admin

    When sending Users the link to reset password. The Admin should be able to see the link in case the user doesnt get the email. The admin should be able to see it to copy and paste it and send it thru outlook email. In case the user is on the suppression list.

  14. Creating multiple triggers in Relay

    We created a workflow to create subfolders automatically. The ability to create subsequent triggers in those subfolders would be helpful. (i.e. folder A is manually created, folder a1, a2, a3, are automatically created. When a file is uploaded in folder a2, do outcomes 1-3)

  15. No (additonal) Box license should be needed for external guests who have their own box domain

    Guest access should be useable with all Box subscriptions. No (additional) Box license should be necessary.

    Also if guests have their own box domain, no (additional) Box license should be necessary for both parties.

  16. Cancel a direct upload in progress through API

    When a direct upload begins via an API, there is no option to stop/cancel the upload while it is in progress. A file can only be deleted after a successful upload.

    Provide an option to stop/revert upload via an API. If a user realizes that he/she has uploaded the wrong file and wishes to cancel the upload while in progress is not possible.

    Canceling an upload while in progress is possible through box webpage but not through via.

  17. Ability to export file requests dashboard

    With time, many file requests have been created. The file request dashboard is a welcome addition, however additional features would be needed so we can actually take actions:
    - export all active file requests filtered by Box Group so that we can share that with champions for different departments to look into
    - search/filter by user and folder name

  18. Change Back Bullet/Numbering/Checkbox on Box Notes

    I have tried reporting this as a bug, though I have been told it is an "expected behavior" - Users used to be able to change individual lines' bullet formatting - but now, if you change a line, it changes ALL LINES above and below to the selected formatting (bullet/numbering/checkbox). Even if you highlight a single line, all lines above and below get changed with it. Please change this back to how it was!

  19. Ability to identify meta data returned being customer inputted or Box System generated

    When using the method to return all metadata file.getAllMetadata();

    The response seems to be returning numerous sets of metadata templates that are attached to the file, both customer created and Box system related.

    It would be good if there was an attribute / flag to filter out values that are customer entered vs Box System generated.

  20. Create a subflow for rejected files in Box Relay

    In Box Relay, when an approval task occurs and the file is rejected, there should be an option to create a subflow for the rejection. Right now, we can only set-up a task or do nothing.

    We use metadata to categorize our files and trigger other relays. Right now, both unprocessed files and rejected files have no tag, because the rejected task workflow does not allow more actions to be taken on the file.

    We would like to be able to create a general task for our users, tag the file, and move the rejected file to a separate folder,…
