  2. Change in handling of file uploads in Box Drive

    I would like Box Drive to treat an upload as an upload, not a copy, even if a file with the same hash value exists in the range to which I have access.

    【日本語】
    Box Driveでアップロードした場合に、アクセス権のある範囲に同じハッシュ値のファイルが存在していてもコピーではなく、アップロードとして扱われるようになってほしい

  3. Change the method of designating approvers

    I would like to see an Outcome created that allows the specified user to specify the approver of the approval flow before approval, instead of specifying the approver at the start of the flow.

    【日本語】
    承認フローの承認者を開始時に指定ではなく、指定したユーザーが承認前に指定できるようなOutcomeを作成してほしい

  4. Set dynamic/arbitrary values for comments in approval tasks/general tasks/notifications

    I would like to be able to set dynamic values for comments in approval tasks/general tasks/notifications and arbitrarily set them at the time of assignment.
    Example 1: In a workflow that is manually started and assigned an approval task, an arbitrary comment can be set at startup.
    Example 2: In a workflow that notifies of new uploads, the file name can be dynamically set in the notification content.

    【日本語】
    承認タスク/一般タスク/通知のコメントに動的な値や割り当て時に任意に設定できるようにしたい。
    例1:手動で起動し、承認タスクを割り当てるワークフローにて、起動時に任意のコメントを設定できる
    例2:新規アップロードを通知するワークフローにて、通知内容にファイル名を動的に設定できる

  5. Secure email included in the Box platform for threaded emails

    I'd like to request a feature for secure, threaded email within Box to streamline confidential communications and keep messages and files in one secure place. This would reduce reliance on external tools and improve compliance. Let me know if it's on the roadmap.

  6. Have the ability to save a preset for organizing files (ie always default to alphabetical)

    It would be great to have the ability to save your desired file organizing layout so that you don't have to constantly click "sort by alphabetical" everytime you go back and forth on different pages.

  7. Box Shield - Ability to "assign" alert to users

    It would be beneficial to be able to assign a Shield Alert to a specific user / analyst / security team member, so they can review and analyze. This would simplify the process, and eliminate duplicate work as the security team do not work on the same alerts.

  8. Adding Tags in Box Relay

    Users should have the ability to apply tags based on dynamic workflow inputs through Box Relay.
    For example: When assignee marks a document "complete", apply that assignee's name as a tag on the document.

  9. Let users use password managers

    Hey Box frontend developers,

    Your half-baked implementation of a password strength checker (e.g., zxcvbn or a custom regex), and then tying it to events like keyup, keydown, or input prevents users from using password managers. So now I'm using a really simple password that I can hand-type because you disallow pasting and (poorly) implement live re-validation.

    Congrats, your site is now less secure.

  10. Ability to create custom Classification Label Data Types

    Have the ability to create a custom classification label data type, e.g. to recognise a particular number format such as xxxxx-xx-***-xxxxxxx-x

    This would enable us to classify documents containing particular account numbers or staff id numbers that don't match the current pre-built data types.

  11. Enable Bulk Import of User Activity Report Schedule Settings via CSV

    In our company, we create dedicated folders for each project to manage personal information.
    For each project folder, we export a User Activity Report related to file management and share it with the inspectors responsible for each project on site.
    Since this task needs to be performed regularly, we use the schedule feature of the report.

    Because the "Affected Folders and Files," "Invite as Viewer," and "Repeat Every" differ for each project, we have to manually configure the Schedule Report settings one by one for each case.
    Currently, with Box's reporting feature, it is not possible to batch configure these…

  12. Enhanced video player and shortcuts

    In general, it would be great if Box could make improvements to its video player. We find that the video player is lower quality than other software that our team uses, and team members frequently reach out with concerns that the video quality is low given the resolution issues with Box's video player. Our team would like to be able to have a frame-by-frame preview in Box and quickly navigate between frames using shortcut keys.

  13. Enable support for Python in Excel with Box co-authoring enabled

    We would like to use the new Python in Excel feature while collaborating on Excel files stored in Box with co-authoring enabled. Currently, this combination is not supported, which limits our ability to leverage advanced data analysis and automation in collaborative environments.

    Please consider enabling compatibility between Python in Excel and Box's co-authoring functionality. This would greatly enhance productivity and data-driven collaboration for teams using both Microsoft 365 and Box.

    日本語訳
    Boxに保存されたExcelファイルを共同編集しながら、Excelの新機能「Python in Excel」を使いたいと考えています。
    現在、この組み合わせはサポートされておらず、高度なデータ分析や自動化を共同作業環境で活用することができません。

    Microsoft 365とBoxの両方を利用しているチームにとって、Python in ExcelとBoxの共同編集機能の互換性が実現されれば、生産性とデータ駆動型のコラボレーションが大きく向上すると思います。ぜひ対応をご検討ください。

  14. Add Annotation and Task details to User Activity Report

    Currently the UAT does not include details about the actual text a user entered into a task or annotation (but does for comments). As the system allows those fields to be edited and/or deleted we must also now show those details so we know what was edited or deleted.

  15. selecting a date on a file request page for mobile

    When I send a file request on Mobile page, it's difficult to select a correct date that I hope from a metadata template . I can not see the whole of the calender and it doesn't follow my touch action on the mobile screen.

  16. Add a variable to assign a unique number when renaming a file with BoxRelay

    I would like you to add a variable that allows the signed file to be given a numbered name when multiple people sign the same file by setting up a Relay triggered by Box Sign.
    -in Japanese-
    Box SignをトリガーにRelayを組んで複数人が同じファイルに署名した場合に、署名したファイルに採番した名前を付けられるような変数を追加してほしい。

  17. Bulk Change Collaborator Permissions

    We have folders that collaborate hundreds of users. We have occasion to need to modify their permissions. It would be very useful if there was a way to modify the permission level of multiple users. Using the Web UI to modify a single user at a time is very inefficient.

    Either via selecting multiple users at a time, or even better, if you were to "re-invite" a user to a folder and select a different collaboration permission.

    This way you could use the invite dialog box to re-invite 100 users - and change their permissions all at once.

  18. Video Watermarking preserved upon download

    In the Video Watermarking feature, have the option for those with download/edit capability to retain the watermark. I.e. preserve the watermark when downloaded by content editors or co-owners.

  19. Selection to automatically enable metadata cascade policy and autofill

    It would be very helpful to have options to enable the cascade policy and autofill on the metadata policy. I would want it to be a selection so it's not enabled by default, but can be if I choose. When applying a policy to many folders, which we do often, this is adds a lot of time to the process. Thank you.
