  1. Will BOX ever add a simple in-platform shared calendar feature or can we assume this is off the table?

    Users have been asking for this simple feature for years. Box has been ignoring this request for years.

    I would like to see some accountability to users.

    What is the protocol for communicating user requests up the chain?

    Has this common, years-long user request been reviewed by box's leadership yet?
    If not, please provide a date when it will be reviewed.
    If so, please advise as to what the outcome of that discussion was. i.e., has the request been dismissed permanently? If so, will Box leadership communicate this clearly to the community?

    What is the reason for failing to add…

  2. I want to be able to distinguish between saved and non-saved reports on the "Report Status" screen.

    Currently, it is not possible to determine whether a saved report is being output on the "Report Status" screen, so you will need to check the "Repeat Interval" on the "Edit Schedule" screen each time.
    For example, if a saved report is being output, we would like to see the name of the saved report displayed in the "Memo" field on the "Report Status" screen.

    タイトル:「レポートステータス」画面上で保存済みレポート/保存済みレポートではない事を区別できるようにしたい

    現状「レポートステータス」画面上では保存済みレポートを出力しているのか判断できず、都度「スケジュールを編集」画面の「繰り返す間隔」を確認する必要があります。
    例えば、保存済みレポートを出力している場合は「レポートステータス」画面の「メモ」欄に保存済みレポートの名称を表示する等の表示の改善を希望します。

  3. the ability to see only files and folders names which managed users were invited

    Currently, co-administrators who have been granted permission to [view the user's content] can see which managed users have been invited to which folders and what content is within those folders. Additionally, they can preview the files.

    Since the helpdesk operations are outsourced, we would like the external staff to be able to confirm only the folder names and file names from the Content Manager, without being able to view or edit the contents of the files.

    Please enable the ability to grant co-administrators the permission to reference only the folder and file names, while restricting access to the contents inside.

  4. Make setting a password for shared links mandatory.

    Currently setting password for shared links is not mandatory. We would like to have the ability to set a global control that requires all public/open ('people with the link') links to be password-protected.

  5. Increase scale of sort within a folder with page search query result limit

    Limit the number of search results to improve results. Increase scale of items in folder that is sortable without error. Most interested in sort by file size, but should impact all types of sort.

  6. Remove Logo on Expiring Embed Link

    Hello, we would like the ability to remove the BOX logo when creating an expiring embed link while using the get file information. Just like the embed widget we would like the ability to disable the box logo when embedding an expiring embed link to an iFrame.
    It would be a more seamless integration of BOX in the back ground as we are embedding these links into applications

  7. External Users Count + Quicker Updates

    1. The External User count is inconsistent between the new view and the old view. It never shows the same total number of users. Additionally, this count can also be inconsistent between our admins never showing the same total.

    2. We would like to see quicker real time updates. Data taking up to 24 hours to show here is concerning when we are managing external users in our environment.

  8. Box Drive should ignore files would be in a hidden folder/directory

    Box Drive should ignore files would be in a hidden folder/directory. For example, this file has a parent folder that is named ".Rproj.user" which starts with a dot.

  9. Shared Link Expiration (Exception) Settings at Folder Level

    I need to be able to control the shared link expiration rules at the folder level, especially when they are an exception from the enterprise-wise rule. We have a handful of use cases that fall outside of the top-line structure, and updating links 1-by-1 is added workflow time on the team. Changing for all assets under a folder would save time and impact when links expired by accident or stay live beyond desired timeline.

  10. How can I specify a file type to ignore or block

    I found a thread on the forum (URL copied below) which was asking exactly what I am looking for. However, it is 4 years old and this page also has many ideas suggested but they haven't been addressed. Thus, I am not sure if my idea will be addressed but I will mention it anyway.
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360052391193-How-To-ignore-Files

    There are certain files I want Box sync to ignore or block. I would suggested allowing the user to create a configuration file in the root folder for the same in which we can specify files to ignore or block. This way, Box sync…

  11. Use Box Hubs and BoxAI to let me find previously crafted responses to similar questions

    I want to be able to put a series of documents (dozens or even a hundred of PowerPoints and Excel files) into a Hub and then ask Box AI to find where I've answered a previous question before, identify the file in which it found it and even tell me the location if possible, such as a slide number.

    I had hoped Box AI and Box Hubs already worked this way, but after some failures I worked with Box Support who confirmed that it does not work that way, at least not yet.

  12. I want the API to query Box Hubs for AI queries

    I want to use the Box AI API to query hubs. Querying a limited set of files and passing to the AI engine is insufficient. I want to leverage the vector database of Hubs to answer questions about a collection of documents.

    My other alternative is to build this out myself. I don't want to do this. I want to leverage the power of the Box AI API. Instead of files I want to be able to pick the hub and ask the question for AI to answer for me.

  13. Prohibits operation of files and folders that have not been synchronized with the Box server(Boxサーバと同期が完了していないファイル・フォルダの操作禁止)

    When operating a file or folder that has not been synchronized with the Box server, the update contents may not be reflected on the Box server and may be lost. To prevent this, we would like to have an optional function that prohibits users from operating a file or folder until it has been successfully reflected to the Box server.

    (In Japanese)
    Boxサーバと同期が完了していないファイル・フォルダを操作すると、Boxサーバに更新内容が反映されず消失することがある。これを抑止するために、正常にBoxサーバに反映が完了するまではユーザの操作を禁止するオプション機能が欲しい。

  14. Scope of Access Policy Application

    We request Shield Access Policy Settings to be applied in the external tenant.

    [background]
    The setting access policy in our tenant doesn`t apply to shared folders in external tenants.
    We consider it is a risk to move folders or files incorrectly to shared folders in external tenants.

  15. Setting to prevent service account from creating new folder at root level

    We request a setting to prevent service account from creating new folders at the root level.

    Service accounts are able to create new folders at the root level even when the Restrict Content Creation setting is enabled.

  16. Optional functionality when creating “shared links” directly from “box drive”

    When creating a “shared link” directly from a “box drive”, there is no ability to set an expiration date or password. It would be desirable to be able to set them for the purpose of preventing the creation of open links from reducing the level of security.

  18. Integrate Computer Vision into Box AI

    As far as i understand currently Box AI only works for assets which have a text representation. It would be great if you could add computer vision to Box AI (could be achieved by adding LLM tooling provided e.g. by GPT-4o-mini) in order of being able to extract text content from scanned images and ask questions about for the content.
    The generated text content could be stored as a text representation as well which would speed up subsequent Box AI calls for the same asset.

  19. Display the person who is holding the lock.(ロックを取得している人を表示)

    Since it is not displayed who is locking the file, it is unclear who has obtained the lock. Being able to identify this will allow us to request the person holding the lock to release it.

    (in Japanese)
    ファイルをロックしている人が誰かが表示できないため誰がロックを取得しているのか分かりません。
    これが分かるようになることで、ロックしている人に解除するよう求めることができるようになります。
