  1. Content Insights reports cannot be output if there are restrictions on content creation.

    (Japanese follows English)
    There is a function to export Content Insights access statistics, but if you restrict content creation and prohibit the creation of first-level folders, you will not be able to export it.
    Currently, there are many cases in which system administrators are required to respond to requests, which places a heavy burden on both administrators and users, and hinders the use of content insights.
    Please enable output even in tenants that have restrictions on content creation, such as specifying the report output destination or outputting to a local file.


    コンテンツ作成の制限が入っているとコンテンツインサイトのレポートが出力出来ない

    コンテンツインサイトのアクセス統計情報をエクスポートという機能がありますが、コンテンツ作成の制限をして第一レベルのフォルダの作成を禁止している場合は出力ができません。
    現状だとシステム管理者に依頼を受けて対応するケースが多く、管理者、利用者とも負荷が大きく、コンテンツインサイトの活用の阻害となっています。
    レポートの出力先を指定する、ローカルにファイル出力するなどコンテンツ作成の制限が入っているテナントでも出力できるようにしてください。

  2. Selecting files on the Box UI

    I recently noticed a change in Box in the while you can select files. Before, you can click on a filename or multiple filenames and it would just be a selection. Now it seems to launch the file. If you want to select the file you have to click on the ballot box to the it’s right now. Our team much prefers the previous way before it was closer to how a desktop UI behaves.

  3. Using Box Sign for forms

    It would be helpful to leverage Box Sign to fill out forms. Currently, Box Sign does not allow for the Sign process to proceed unless a signature field is dropped into the document. We have a scenario where we wanted to have someone fill out text fields with various information as a step before a signature is placed. Perhaps a separate feature called Box Forms which allows those fields to be dropped in and populated onto a document before it gets to Sign?

  4. Comment Reply Thread and integration with Office Comments

    I have recently had to stop people from using the Box comment feature, as it was adding unnecessary tasks to my workflow, because it does not allow the author to respond to comments, and when i open a word document to edit, the comments disappear. Commenting feature needs to integrate with Office in order to be useful for reviewing MS office documents. As the author i 'must' be able to respond, and close comments, AND when i open the document for edit, i MUST be able to see the comments. The MS Office comment feature is fantastic and if Box…

  5. Enable option to turn on Optimal Character Recognition (OCR) for all documents

    Enable option to turn on Optimal Character Recognition (OCR) for all documents.

    This is important for Search and Data Leakage Prevention (DLP)/Ethical Walls.

    E.g. a Driver's License, Passport, etc. image gets uploaded, then Box DLP doesn't recognize this today.

  6. Date and Time of uploading file on BOX

    Hi! I was faced with the problem of file date uploading on display on BOX.

    I know that usually, BOX shows "Today" or "Yesterday" if the file was uploaded to BOX today or yesterday. It's clear, but, I need to see the exact date displayed with numbers. For example, I want to see that the file was uploaded to BOX "18 of May, 2022" instead of "Today".

    Moreover, I even can't see the time when the file was uploaded to BOX. I work with the client in different time zones (the difference is 10 hrs) and sometimes it is really…

  8. Set "SSO Required"/"SSO Enabled" for each user

    The current "SSO Required" is for all managed users.
    When creating "administrator user and general user" as a managed user, there are the following problems.
    -It is necessary to create an administrator user ID on the IdP side.
    -When accessing as an administrative user, it takes time and effort to log in from the IdP and access Box.
    -A license fee will also be charged on the IdP side.

    If we can set "SSO required" and "SSO enabled" for each user, the problem will be solved.

  9. Add "Dimensions" info under "File properties"

    To be able to see the dimensions of an image is an extremely valuable feature for designers to review and "QC" all of the marketing assets without having to download all the files.

    Thank you for the suggestion. While we definitely understand the value of displaying dimensions for image files, this functionality is not currently planned on our near term roadmap. Please continue to add comments and suggestions here to help us prioritize in the future.

  10. Need warning message when different filename/extension is uploaded using "Upload New Version"

    User can upload a new version with different filename/extension from the current version using "Upload New Version" feature. User should be prompted when this happens as this is often the user error.

  12. Disable Folder Rename capability

    I would like to have a Folder properties setting to disable Folder Rename (even for Editors).

    I was testing setting up departmental folders to replicate our group file server. I want all members of the department to be able to add/remove/delete files in their folder. I was able to do that by assigning them the editor role, but that allows them to change the root level folder name. Is there a way to prevent that?

    For instance, I create folders for accounting, finance, etc. I want those folders to keep the names I set and I do not want the…

    Thank you for the suggestion. We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap.

    Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

    This is technical not feasible. Microsoft has not enabled the APIs that we need to leverage on mac.

  17. I would like Box Sign to have more flexible permission settings.

    When Box Sign is enabled for a user, he/she can send sign requests, check the contents of requests shared with them, and view their inbox.
    However, there are users for whom I do not want to allow sending sign requests, but I do want them to be able to check their inbox.

    For example, our executives who frequently approve or sign documents in Box Sign but do not need to send signature requests by themselves.
    I believe it is a potential security risk to give users the authority to send signature requests even though they do not need it.

    Currently,…

  18. User dropdown for Box Forms

    In Box Forms it would be very convenient to have a User dropdown field.

    Many of our workflows have a user fill out a form, which is then rendered into a document and sent for approval - and often, approvers are not static (e.g. their manager).

    It would be very convenient if they could select another Box user with a similar experience to the collaboration dialog, or when you're adding to a Box Sign - a few characters from their name or email will show matching users. This field would then expose both the user's name and their email as…

  19. Ability to tie one BoxEID to a specific microsoft365 tenant.

    When I add and activate Microsoft Power Automate to the Box app, it can be linked to multiple microsoft365 tenants.
    We would like BoxEID to be linked to a microsoft365 tenant and only be available in specific environments.

    In Japanese:
    Microsoft Power AutomateをBoxのアプリに追加して有効化すると、
    複数のmicrosoft365テナントと連携ができてしまいます。
    BoxEIDとmicrosoft365テナントを結び付けて、特定環境でのみ利用ができるようにしてほしいです。

  20. In Excel Preview - Ability to Sum up a total of a column

    Since we can already click on and highlight cells in an Excel file in Preview mode on Box, I would love the functionality of being able to highlight and get a Total (Sum) of cells that is displayed in Preview mode without having to Open or Download the file.
