  1. Internal links to documents for collaboration

    We use Box Drive for a native experience for users to access documents. The downside is when collaborating on documents, most people tend to upload a copy of the document to an email and send it, which results in multiple versions of the document. On my prior document system, Outlook would allow users to upload a file that was actually a link to the stored document so people could collaborate on it. I know we could create/send a shared link, but this would result in alot of unnecessary links floating around. Could Box Drive/Outlook prompt to upload a link to…

  2. Is it possible to upload a document in box that has links to folders within Box

    I would like to know is it possible to create a document that has URLS that connect to other folders within my box tenant, or within my folder structure?

  3. More user-controlled settings (organizational and other)

    Allow users to set default sorting method. E.g., I can choose to have files always appear in alphabetical order.
    Furthermore, allow users any controls they would have with a regular file explorer. I genuinely don't understand why my workplace wants me to use Box: File Explorer But Worse Somehow™
    Let users control their UI. It was reality a mere decade ago and now every company tries to obscure choice beyond reason. It's frustrating. We want our controls back.

  4. Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages.

    Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages. Customers often want to just use box extract to load documents and skip the indexing. These documents can be large, 100 pages, 500 pages, etc, but the indexing information may be only on the first 3 pages that is required. This request is to incorporate a way to limit how many pages box extract runs against per folder, or per metadata set, per Extract Agent. The key is when I upload a 1000 page document, I don't want that to eat up 1000 AI…

  6. Request for Dynamic Session Timeout Control Based on SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter

    We would like Box to reference the SessionNotOnOrAfter value in the SAML response and allow the session timeout to be set shorter than the tenant’s default value (and, if possible, longer as well).

    Our intention is to have the IdP determine the security level based on factors such as device type and user type, and then shorten the session only when the risk is high, while allowing longer sessions when the risk is low, thereby enabling risk-based session management.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter によるセッションタイムアウト動的制御の要望

    <本文>
    SAMLレスポンス内の SessionNotOnOrAfter を参照し、Boxのセッションタイムアウトをテナントデフォルト値より短く(可能であれば長くも)設定できるようにしていただきたいです。
    IdP側でデバイス種別・ユーザー種別などから安全性を判定し、安全性が低い場合のみセッションを短く、高い場合は長くすることで、リスクベースのセッション管理を実現したい意図があります。

  7. Add preset date ranges such as “Previous Month” when scheduling report generation

    When scheduling report generation, it would be very helpful to have an option to select “Previous Month” (from the 1st to the last day of the previous month) as a preset date range.
    It would also be useful to have additional preset options such as “Previous Year,” “Specific Month,” or “Specific Year” to easily configure commonly used reporting periods.

  8. Allow search feature on shared link folders

    Allow search feature on shared link folders. Search feature should be everywhere whether they are collaborated folders or guest shared link folders.

    Currently they are not available on shared link folders which makes it difficult for users to search for a specific file within a folder. (E.g. 500 image files in a folder and user has to download whole folder to search for a specific image file)

  9. Set up abnormal download threat detection for a specific folder

    The threat detection feature for abnormal downloads applies to the entire Box and often results in unnecessary detections.
    If threat detection can be focused on specific folders, unintended detections can be minimized.
    I would like the threat detection feature for abnormal downloads to be usable by specifying folders.

    異常なダウンロードに対する脅威検出機能は、Box全体が対象となっており不要な検出をしてしまうことが多いです。特定のフォルダに絞って脅威検出ができれば、意図しない検出を抑えることができます。異常なダウンロードに対する脅威検出機能をフォルダを指定して使えるようにしてほしい。

  10. I would like the shared links to be automatically converted into hyperlink format instead of just displaying the URL.

    Similar to how it works in SharePoint, I would like the system to automatically convert shared links into a hyperlink format using the file or folder name, rather than displaying them as a raw URL.
    SharePointで出来るように、共有リンクを作成した際にURL形式ではなく、ファイル名やフォルダ名のハイパーリンク形式に自動変換できるようにしてほしいです。

  11. CrowdStrike's ability to filter device protection by IP address

    Box Shield allows you to protect your devices with CrowdStrike.
    Once CrowdStrike is enabled, you will not be able to log in on devices that do not have Box Tools installed.
    Therefore, if you have a device that cannot be installed on Box Tools, such as Linux, you will not be able to use CrowdStrike's protection of your device.
    Only when calling from a specific IP address should CrowdStrike policies be applied.
    There is a need to not want the policy to be applied to unmanaged devices, so we would like a function that allows us to narrow down the…

  12. Please make it so Box AI can compare the pixel differences between images.

    We use Adobe Workfront to help tell any slight pixel differences between two seemingly identical images.

    Please make it so Box AI can compare the pixel differences between images so that we can more easily standardize on Box.

    The folder and file names set in the collection are displayed with few characters, making them difficult to access.

  15. Large Folder Operations dashboard with status, ETA, rollback, and reporting

    Requesting a centralized Large Folder Operations Dashboard in the Box Admin Console or via API to improve visibility and control over major content transfers.

    During a large folder ownership change, an unexpected behavior occurred where ownership polling and job sequencing did not reflect the actual state of completion. This led to a move propagating recursively from an empty child folder to an inherited, multi-million-object parent folder.

    A built-in dashboard would provide transparency into large operations and prevent this class of issue from occurring silently.

    Proposed Capabilities

    -Status Tracking — show all active or queued large folder transfers (ownership, move, or…

  17. Prevent auto-scroll during AI answer generation

    Description:
    When using the AI sidebar, the window automatically scrolls to the bottom while the answer is being generated. Even if I scroll up to read the beginning of the response, the view jumps back down each time new text appears.

    This makes it difficult to read longer answers until the generation is complete.

    Request:
    Could the behavior be adjusted so that when the user manually scrolls up, the current scroll position is maintained — allowing us to read the generated text immediately without being forced to the end of the response?

  19. Download event is not recorded in User Activity Report

    When a user downloads a signed PDF from the Sign Inbox page, the "Download" event is not recorded in the User Activity Report. Instead, a "Content Access" event is logged.
    However, when downloading a signature log from the same page, the "Download" event is correctly recorded.

    We would like to ensure that the correct event is logged in all cases to accurately track user activities.

  20. Make sidebar width manually adjustable

    I appreciate the update, but I find the new sidebar quite hard to use.
    Would it be possible to allow users to manually resize it to their preferred width?
    I think this would make the interface much more user-friendly.

    新しいサイドバーについてですが、少し使いづらいです。
    ユーザーが幅を手動調整できる仕様にすることは可能でしょうか?
    そうすれば、もっと使いやすくなるのではないかと思います。
