Approval Task With Box Relay Enhancements
When allocating approval tasks in Box Relay, users are able to uncheck the "Invite the person in charge as a viewer" function.

Enable True/False Metadata Mapping for Checkboxes and Radio Buttons in Box Forms
Description:
Today in Box Forms, checkbox and radio button inputs are not natively mapped to Boolean metadata fields (true/false or yes/no), which limits the ability to trigger workflows or create metadata-driven views based on user responses.Feature Request:
Allow checkboxes and radio buttons in Box Forms to map directly to Boolean metadata fields:If a checkbox is checked, metadata should reflect “true”; if unchecked, “false.”
For yes/no radio button questions, allow mapping directly to true/false metadata fields.
Impact & Value:
Streamlines workflow automation with Box Relay (e.g., trigger based on form input).
Enables metadata-driven views (e.g., show only records where…

@Mention Someone When Replying to an Annotation in a Box Note
iIt would be nice to be able to @mention someone in a Annotation within the Box Note. I know you can do it in the comments, but if a note is lengthy and you want to put someone's nose right to where you want them to look (or a tasks you've assigned them to), this would be nice to have.

Creating a sign template - Specify a location for saving requests in a folder different from where the template is saved
When creating a sign template, I want to specify a location for saving requests in a folder different from where the template is saved.
Currently, when a request save location is specified in a template, the template is also saved in the specified request save location.
If I move the template file to another folder, the request save location set in the template will also change to the destination folder.
I don't want to re-specify a different folder to save the request each time I create a sign request from a template.
サインテンプレート作成時テンプレートの保存場所とは別のフォルダにリクエストの保存場所を指定したい。
現在、テンプレートでリクエストの保存場所を指定すると、テンプレートも指定したリクエストの保存場所に保存されます。
テンプレートのファイルを別のフォルダに移動するとテンプレート内に設定したリクエストの保存場所も移動先のフォルダに変わってしまう。
テンプレートからサインリクエストを作成するたびにリクエストの保存場所を別のフォルダに指定しなおすのは避けたい。

Save Sorting Preferences
When using Box in-browser, create a setting to change the default sorting preference. For example, so you can make the default sorting for all folders Name, Ascending. This is not currently an option and means every time you open a folder you need to manually resort it, as the default sorting is always set to Updated, Ascending.

Ability to read the EXIF data in the photos that are uploaded
I need Box to read the EXIF data in the photos I upload. Having access to that would make categorizing and finding assets infinitely easier. If I could sort by the metadata already included with an image file I would be able to find by date, location, resolution, etc automatically. A default metadata template should be created that matches that of EXIF data so that it automatically loads. You could then find the images you want by searching the EXIF data then could apply other metadata to add more relevance.
38 votesThis is currently under review for inclusion in our roadmap for 2026. We will update the status of this request toward the end of 2025 when our review is finalized.

Ability to change the Date Field format
Currently the date field is automatically filled based on the signer's PC device language.
When the language is set in Japanese, the date will be written in Japanese but when it is set in English, the date will be written in English.
It would be great if we can set the language/format of the date to be the same when there is multiple signers with different language setting.35 votes -
Worflow Starter should be the assigner of tasks instead of the creator/owner of Relay Workflow.
A relay workflow is created by one owner but used by several people. Since all the tasks are assigned by the workflow owner rather than the workflow starter, its confusing for assignees. E-mail and task notifications should show the workflow starter's name instead of the owner of workflow.

Box Sign requests default "my requests" folder
Box Sign requests default to save into a "my requests" folder for all users. We don't always need the sign request saved into our regular Box folder structure and having a separate place for each user to send their requests to would be more beneficial.

Disposition Report should be able to show files that were deleted in the past
It's important for GxP compliance and ease of auditing to know what files were disposed of in the past, or during a specific period, like in the last 30 days, last 6 months, etc.
Disposition report should be able to show previous deletions, not just upcoming deletions, and admins should be able to filter by retention policy, and date.

disable comments, tasks, and version history when "Hide collaborators and their activities from non-owners" is enabled
We would like a Function to disable comments, tasks, and version history when "Hide collaborators and their activities from non-owners" is enabled in the "Privacy" folder settings.
We want this because If you invite multiple external collaborators, we don't want external people to detect who you are inviting.
There is a function to hide collaborators, but if invited external users use comments, tasks, version history, it will be possible to see who is invited, so we would like to disable these functions as well.

File request - Allow only Manage Users from an EID to upload via File Request
In file request, have the ability to state that only a managed user in the EID or an external user that has been invited to the folder can upload, no one else. By doing this, it prevents a file request link from being randomly guessed or found on the internet AND prevents a random user from uploading bad or malware/virus infected content. The current state of requiring the user to login is too generic and doesn't meet the requirement of keeping the file request locked down. Using the collaboration role for upload is not what is needed. The File Request…

Save Microsoft Teams Recordings to Box
When recording a call/meeting in Microsoft Teams, it defaults to using OneDrive as it's default storage. Currently the process of saving a recording is a manual process of downloading the recording, and uploading to Box. I'd like an option to default recording data to Box instead.

We will continue to build out our plans to bring this to customers as the team works on our current roadmap.
