  1. Allowing someone to edit a box note should mean they can view images

    We're often sharing box notes across teams that are used to take review notes, including lots of screencaps. But using a share link that gives someone in my company the ability to edit a box note does NOT give them the authority to view the images in the box note. Which makes the share link all but useless, because we still need to give all of them explicit access to the folder. And it makes no sense, because they can delete images that other people have added, even though they aren't allowed to view the image!

  2. Marker based paging for search

    It would be great if the public search API supported marker based paging to avoid duplicates coming back in search results. Currently we're only able to search based on limit and offset but that's not stateful so each "page" or results may have overlap with previous results. I believe there are other marker based paging APIs for Box. This would bring search in line with how we handle paged results elsewhere.

  3. Can't browse on mobile after setting a password for a shared link

    We can access a file by create a shared link for a file in Box Web App without "Password Protect" for "People with the link" and opening the URL in a web browser on a mobile device.

    Then, when the shared link is set to "Password Protect" from the Web App and then opened again on the mobile device, the message "This shared file or folder has been deleted" is displayed and the file cannot be accessed.
    The expected behavior is to display the password entry screen.

    The workaround for this issue is to clear the browser cache, and the…

  4. Transfer the workflow ownership of the existing user

    Currently we are not able to transfer the workflow ownership, while the user is active?(I know we can transfer when the admin delete the user)

    When the user moved to the other department and we want to transfer the workflow to his/her teammates, before he/she leave the department.

  5. Remove dialog box that pops up after downloading when you send a shared link to a document

    There is a dialog box that pops up after a shared link has been sent and the download has been completed. This box prompts the person to sign up or sign into Box to manage their downloads. It would be a great to turn off that dialog box, especially for those who are enterprise users. It confuses our clients when we send them documents and makes them think they need a box login to download anything, which is not true.

  6. Increase options for File Version Limit in Admin Console

    Currently you can only choose between 1 and 100, or Unlimited. We would like options in-between 100 and Unlimited. Preferably a custom option like trash retention was recently updated to. I would like to be able to set it to 1000 or 2000, for example.

    Justification: When moving folders that have excessive versions (7000+ for example) the folder moves can fail or take a very long time. However, setting to 100 is not enough for many of our users due to the frequency of increases when using Excel Online.

  8. Custom Location Box Folder on macOS Big Sur

    Hi,

    Custom location is working properly on macOS Catalina 10.15. via terminal and configuration profiles.

    We're currently testing and this ability is now lost on macOS Big Sur 11

    Could you guys kindly look into this and see if it could be implemented soon.

    Thank you,

  10. I want to be able to find files containing specific text that DO NOT have a specified metadata template applied

    I want to be able to find files containing specific text that DO NOT have a specified metadata template applied. This will help with implementing Box Governance Classification, and support compliance/audits going forward.

  11. 2FA when logging in using external password

    When SSO is enabled, users can use external passwords to access services that do not support SSO login. Security teams want to be able to enforce 2FA on logins using external passwords.

  13. Governance, Retention policy for folders with no content

    hen a retention policy removes files, it's possible to end up in a situation where there is a very long list of folders without any files. It would be helpful if there was a way to remove these folders quickly.

  14. Count previewing large Video files as "preview" in User Statistics Report

    Count previewing large Video files as "preview" in User Statistics Report.

    Sometimes previewing large Video files is not counted as "preview" in User Statistics Report.

    It should be counted.

  15. Document metadata processing and visualization for decision making in large organizations

    Example: Financial organization such as a bank, needs to process a new loan. They will need to process income verification, identity verification, and other documents. The bank representative receiving this information must validate these documents, so the metadata pulled from these documents should be easily exported into a friendly format, such as excel.

    This will allow bank representative to easily approve or deny the loan, and can be automated using Box Relay.

    This is a killer application, because it will increase the efficiency of document processing, and will speed up and automate the work of many employees. This will shift…

  16. ABILITY TO CLOSE THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR ON FILES!!!!!!

    GET RID OF THE ACTIVTY BOX ON FILES.

    OF OUR ~10,000 FILES ONLY 6 HAVE COMMENTS, SO WHY SHOULD WE ALWAYS HAVE TO HAVE IT OPEN.

    WHEN USING TWO OPEN WINDOWS SIDE BY SIDE, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE BOX BECAUSE HALF OF THAT WINDO W IS OVERTAKEN BY THE ACTIVITY SIDEBAR.

    YOU USED TO BE ABLE TO CLOSE IT, WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!

  18. Auto classification of files/folders based on metadata and comments

    It would be helpful if Box's auto classification feature were able to trigger file classification (and thus, security controls) if metadata on a file/folder is sensitive in nature or if a file has comments/tasks/annotations that contain sensitive information.

  19. Keep third party's login token or credentials when logging out from Box Drive

    Users need to log in to a web gateway before logging in to Box Drive.

    If they log out, they need to login to the gateway again.

    In WebApp, they don’t need to re-login the gateway after logging out from Box.

    Therefore, Box should have any way to prevent this.

  20. See a longer duration for the pop-up that appears at the top of the screen when moving or copying is performed.

    We would like to see a longer duration for the pop-up that appears at the top of the screen when you move or copy.
    It would be great if it could be set up on a per-tenant basis if possible.

    If we accidentally manipulate it, we'll get flustered.
    We need a little more time to calmly click the "Undo" button.

    <移動・コピー時に画面上部に表示されるポップアップの持続時間を長くして欲しい>

    移動・コピー時に画面上部に表示されるポップアップの持続時間を長くして欲しいです。
    可能であれば、テナント単位で設定できるとさらに良いと思います。

    誤って操作してしまった場合、慌ててしまいます。
    冷静に「元に戻す」ボタンをクリックするには、もう少し時間が必要です。
