  1. Add granularity to shared link controls

    Based on organizational requirements and the variance, there should be additional controls such as limiting the capability to create shared links (open Links) to Admins or designated personnel as an option. This would allow for greater granularity as some divisions within an organization may have a need to share publicly, while also securing sensitive information

    How important is this to you?

    For now, we are focussed on solving bulk management issues with Shared Links.

    Box Shield is an additional option for enforcing granular controls on content.

  3. Prevent the easy deletion of root level folders

    We accidentally deleted a root level folder for millions of folders.

    This may be done by locking the folder, where it could allow users to create/edit/delete the contents within the folder, but not allowing the locked folder itself to be rename/moved/deleted.

    This may also help Box Sync (and possibly Box Drive) users, as many Box Sync users often delete the top level folders by accident.

  4. Box Drive install to be shown as "Box Drive" instead of "Box"

    Our user believes that labeling the installation more explicitly as Box Drive, instead of Box, will be more clear.

  5. Allow Excel to open report (csv) without worrying about encoding

    The encoding for such csv file is in UTF-8 (no Byte Order Mark) and Excel failed to interpret such file, resulting in non-Unicode character turning garble.

    Since we open this report in a Spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel, it would be beneficial to have Byte Order Mark added to the csv report in the first place.

    The workaround now is either
    1) Open the csv file in a modern text editor and re-save it using UTF-8 (with Byte Order Mark)

    2) Open a blank spreadsheet on Excel. From "Data" tab click on import from text data source. The manually imported…

  8. Allow custom logo in Box notifications

    If we upload our logo in our custom branding (enterprise settings > custom set up) it will not show in email notifications sent from Box. Instead, it will show the standard Box logo and colors. White labelling notifications is important to mimic our portal and avoids unnecessary Platform development.

  9. Shared Folder Page: Add the Ability to Search

    The shared folder page does not currently have the ability to search, meaning users must manually navigate through (potentially) pages of folders to find the relevant file.

    REQUEST: Add the ability to perform searches when viewing a Shared Folder page as a non-collaborator.

    For example, if a customer is using open shared links as a way to host a 'Brand/PR Assets' library with subfolders for logos, imagery, etc., the users are unable to quickly locate the file they need amongst the subfolders. Search would help with this.

    This is a great suggestion, and I can definitely see the usefulness of such a feature. Based on current priorities, I don’t foresee us being able to implement this feature in the short-term.

  11. Ability to tie one BoxEID to a specific microsoft365 tenant.

    When I add and activate Microsoft Power Automate to the Box app, it can be linked to multiple microsoft365 tenants.
    We would like BoxEID to be linked to a microsoft365 tenant and only be available in specific environments.

    In Japanese:
    Microsoft Power AutomateをBoxのアプリに追加して有効化すると、
    複数のmicrosoft365テナントと連携ができてしまいます。
    BoxEIDとmicrosoft365テナントを結び付けて、特定環境でのみ利用ができるようにしてほしいです。

  13. Box Sign - Send documents to CC recipient prior to full execution of document

    I would like for the individual(s) who are marked as Copy in the signature order to be able to receive the document prior to it being fully executed by every other person in the signing order.

    We have clients where one person signs, but others want to receive the document simultaneously even though they're not signing, and if we use Approver for their role, 95% of the time they are unaware they have an action and the document never gets passed them in the signing order.

    Please allow Copy individuals to have a place in the signing order other than…

  14. Box Mobile - GPS coordinates and Date Taken

    Box Mobile – GPS coordinates metadata location. In Box capture, capture saves location metadata about the photo, the longitude and latitude coordinates as Box metadata. The Box Mobile app photo does not save location as metadata on Box but instead you have to access the File Information to get the longitude and latitude of the photo. This is a request to update the Box Mobile to save the location coordinates (metadata) as metadata in Box in addition to file information.

    Also, Box app doesn’t capture the metadata for “Date Taken”

  16. Accurate display of number of files

    Fixed the problem of inconsistent number of files

    Inconsistencies in the number of files can occur when large amounts of data are owned or moved for business purposes.
    There is a workaround for this in the support page, but it does not work in some cases.
    Even if we can confirm the exact number of items in the report, the size may differ due to data inconsistencies.
    We feel that it is inconvenient for business use to not be able to accurately grasp the number of data.
    Please fix the inconsistency of the number of files.

  17. Ability to rearrange the image files displayed on Box Drive and Box Web

    For image files (photos), such as jpg and png files, there is a Date taken item in the "Properties".
    On Box Drive and Box Web, We wants to organize the photos by descending or ascending order based on the Date taken.
    However, since [Box Drive] and [Box Web] do not have the Date taken attribute, files cannot be organized by the date and time they were taken.
    Thus, we would like you to add the Date taken attribute.

  19. I want to select multiple users from the collaborator list and delete all the collaborators at once.

    I would like to add the ability to select multiple users from the collaborators list and delete collaborations in bulk.

    Currently, in the Box folder, you need to select the permissions of each user from the collaborators list and select one user at a time.
    Example: Editor → Delete

    This takes a lot of time when there are a lot of users, so we need a function to delete them all at once.

    If there are a lot of department transfers within the company, the folder administrator has to do this every month for security reasons for each user.

    If…
