Increase collaboration invitation limit for Hubs beyond 500
Hubs owners/coowners can only invite 500 individual collaborators to a Hub. This poses a challenge for customers who have restrictive external collaboration settings that prevent the creation of public shared links, and need to provide access to external users via invitations to collaborate on files/folders. This limit needs to be increased (or eliminated) to support large enterprises with more restrictive security settings. Leveraging Groups is not a good alternative for users who primarily intend to use Hubs for external collaboration.

Streamline process for inviting free users to Hubs
If a customer has restricted users' ability to create public shared links, they can only invite external users to Hubs if they already have a Box account. It would be ideal if this process worked the same way as it does if you invite an external user to a file/folder, where they are prompted to create a Box account (free or otherwise) and can then view the Hub. This adds friction into the process for users that are leveraging Box for external collaboration.

Create JSON file from Form
It would be very helpful to have the option to create a JSON file from the fields in a form to be used in a Doc Gen template. This would save us much time and frustration vs. manually creating the JSON.

AI Agent Suggested Prompts Need Additional Detail Capability
The ability to define the suggested prompts is very helpful. However, as we build very targeted agents we find the prompts, not custom instructions, need to be more detailed, which makes them long. It would be very helpful to customize the suggested prompt button with a short descriptions but have the actual prompt input in a separate text box and hidden from end-users. The hidden, long, prompt would run when the visible prompt is selected.
Something like this would be a big win for us. Please let me know if this is not clear.

Add Section Divider Lines and Blank Fields for Cleaner Forms
I would recommend adding divider lines to allow cleaner grouping or sectioning of fields in a form. It would also be helpful to have "blank" field for better organizing when adding fields in two columns but the number of fields for a particular topic is an odd number. Having a blank filler field would allow starting the next topic on the next row rather than beside a field that isn't related. This would make the form look cleaner and be easier for end-users to follow.
2 votesWe've released the static text field that should resolve the blank field request and we've decided to prioritize multi page forms which could serve as a workaround for Divider lines.

More collaborative annotations
When editing drafts of print and digital materials, using comments/annotations in Box has been my team's go-to. However, I think the level of collaboration for that option could use improvement. It would be nice to be able to respond to directly under someone's comment so everyone knows what is being referred to, and I don't have to type "in response to {name's} note on {thing}..." to get my point across. It would also be nice to resolve/remove comments in some cases.

Annotation types are lacking compared to other ECM platforms.
Support additional annotation types for parity with traditional ECM systems: Text boxes, stamps, shapes (ovals, circles, arrows, etc).

Sorting & Tagging
I’ve encountered a few issues with Box.com and it’s impeding on my performance.
When creating folders the system by default sorts by the latest folder accessed. Clicking on “NAME” to resort by folder structure is time consuming.
Also, I was told the Box desktop app was a good alternative to Box.com. All was well until I stumbled upon a design flaw when tagging a folder on the desktop app vs Box.com
I use a Mac and tag using their colour coding system. Unfortunately, Box.com does not support said feature so the tags are only visible on my laptop.Since there’s…

Mouse Drag + Option to copy/duplicate an element.
Most tools like Powerpoint, Google Slides, Figma, FigJam, Miro , etc. support holding a key and drag an element to create a copy. This the fastest way to copy elements around the page such as to create copies of post-its, squares, etc. In Box canvas, I can pick an item, copy and paste and then I have to select the copied item and move it to where I want. Drag copying does all that in one motion.

User Offboarding (File/Folder Moves)
I’d like to suggest an improvement to the user offboarding process. When we delete a user, it would be very helpful to have more granular control over where that user’s files and folders are moved within the tenant. This way we can choose someone and then maybe a subfolder they want the data placed in.
Specifically, having the option to:
- Choose the destination folder for the disabled user’s content.
- Include checkbox option to include trash bin contents along with the rest of their files.This would make the offboarding process more efficient and ensure nothing is overlooked.

Add a "View All Tasks" button to the left menu
To view all tasks, you need to press the clipboard icon and then select "View All Tasks."
It takes two clicks each time, which is very time-consuming.
I would like you to add it to the left menu so that I can check all tasks with a single click.

Notification for reading text over 2MB with AI
Please make it so that a notification appears when loading text larger than 2MB in Box AI.
When the text is over 2MB, the necessary information may not be fully read, resulting in incomplete responses and potentially acquiring incorrect information.-in Japanese-

Importing data using Box Shuttle via an SFTP share link
We are provided access to data stored in external customers archives via FTP/SFTP credentials which we need to migrate into Box.
It would be great to be able to migrate this data directly into box using Box Shuttle.
Would it be possible to add SFTP as one of the pick options on the source system screen in Shuttle when creating a new Job where we could add in URL, Username, Password, Port, etc?

Adding Font Colors
Please add gray as a font color option in Box Hubs, similar to Box Notes.
The gray color is very useful for representing supplemental information.2 votes -
AI query results resources
One enhancement requested by a customer is within the Box AI query window. The documents from which information is pulled be linked within the response alongside the relevant text and at the end of the response (image 1), rather than be listed only at the end of the response (image 2).

File Status now showing in Windows File Explorer
The problem shows up after installing the box app on my Windows pc. In my Windows file explorer, I cannot see the status of my files. I cannot know if the document is already available or needs to be downloaded first before use. And I cannot clear local downloaded file caches to release some space. How can I know the file status?

Open Microsoft Office in embedded Office app by default
If I have, say, an Excel file in my Box account, I can right-click on it, choose Open with..., then choose Excel Online, and it'll open up in the embedded version of Excel. That's wonderful! However, since I almost always want to open my Excel files that way, I'd really like an option to have that happen automatically when I open the file without right-clicking on it. This would save me a bunch of clicks over time.
(Closely related, I'd also like to get rid of the "will open in Microsoft Excel Online in a new browser window" alert, but…

Improvement of search within the Hub
We would like to search for information within texts in the Hub, not only from files and folders in the Hub.
Currently, to enable information search within the Hub, we compile all information in Box Notes and add it to the Hub. However, this results in longer access times for users. We would like to improve the issue where supplementary texts written within pages are not searchable.2 votes -
Reporting on Box Desktop Applications
Would like to have a report on managed users and the last reported version of Box Drive/Box Tools/Box for Office they are using and if they have any active sync errors to proactively help them.
