  1. Viewer cannot copy the contents of a file.

    Viewer can copy the file itself, but not the contents of the file.

    If the file itself can be copied, then the contents of the file should also be copied. This is more intuitive and easier to understand.
    Also, if the file itself can be copied, there is no security issue if the contents of the file can be copied.

    The users just don't want the contents of the file to be edited.
    Rather, they want the contents of the file to be copied.

    The inability of viewers to copy the contents of files is ineffective in every respect.
    Nonetheless,…

  3. Metadata Report

    Can we get a report that lists all the metadata values entered into a template for a folder or file. I have users that need reports of the values entered in their metadata templates to validate files and folders have the correct metadata.

  4. Ability to act on search results

    Using filters, users are able to achieve granular search results for the files they need. Currently, the only action available on search results is to open 1 document at a time. Users need a way to select all search results and add to a collection, tag, move to folder, export, and other related actions.

  5. Change default view in folders being shared

    Box defaults to showing files via upload date, please allow the ability to select what the default view is, so that it can be set to file name (ie alphabetically).

    When sharing links to folders with clients, files being shown via upload date looks messy and unprofessional and asking the client to change the view on their side isn't an option or a solution.

  6. Get metadata information values from the Relay DocGen menu

    Use the BoxRelay DocGen menu to implement a function that can obtain values from metadata information.
    We are considering document generation using DocGen, combining DocGen templates, metadata, and BoxRelay.
    (We plan to input data from Servicenow)
    In the current specification, the DocGen menu has been added to BoxRelay, but it cannot read metadata.
    (Metadata is available for other items)

    BoxRelayのDocGenメニューを利用し、メタデータ情報から値を取得できる機能を実装してください。
    DocGenテンプレートとメタデータとBoxRelayを組み合わせた、DocGenによる文書生成を検討しています。(Servicenowから入力を行うことを予定している)
    現在の仕様では、BoxRelayにDocGenメニューが追加されたが、メタデータを読むことができません。(他の項目ではメタデータを利用できる)

  7. Box EDR

    1) How is Box handling Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR / XDR) for its internal infrastructure?

    2) We see the "Endpoint Detection and Response Integrations" section in the "Enterprise Settings" of the Admin Console - is CrowdStrike the only integration available? Are they plans to expand to Microsoft Defender or Trellix?

  8. Display Notification for Blocked Uploads to Uploading User

    When creating your own Content Security policies for uploads it would be really helpful to be able to create a notification that would be displayed to an uploading user. The notification would be able to be configured by an admin user to explain the reason for why a file upload was prevented.

    Without these types of notifications we have users who may upload files and then needless work exists to find out which user uploaded a file type we do not accept to then notify the end user that the file type is not acceptable and then have the user…

  9. Behavior when an external collaboration allowed folder is moved to a non-allowed folder

    The "If you move a subfolder in a folder that is allowed to collaborate externally to a folder that is not allowed to collaborate externally, the subfolder will still be able to collaborate externally." behavior is a specification of Box.

    The above specification violates Box's waterfall permissions specification. When this happens, Box should alert and remove external collaborations.

  10. Interval in metadata trigger

    Hi! Would it be possible to add the ability in Box Relay for the flow to be dependent on the interval between 2 values of numeric metadata?
    Now we only have options like "less than", "greater than", but it would be great if we could set the trigger dependance "from...to" like in the search filter

  12. Display TIFF Files without strict metadata validation

    TIFF generated across different business, internal and external streams are not consistent with the meta data validation. Some times, the file metadata claims the embedded JPEG uses 1x1 sampling (no subsampling, full resolution), but the actual JPEG data uses 2x1 horizontal chroma subsampling.

    In these cases strict validations causes failures to preview the TIFF images, converting millions of such images to PDFs is not scalable effort.

    BOX to provide a feature to ignore strict validation of the meta data.

  13. Support for User-Specific Folder Visibility in HUB

    We have use cases where we need to display only the folders a user has access to within a specific directory—such as a users directory in root directory. Currently, the only way to achieve this with HUB is by creating a separate HUB for each user, which is difficult to manage and scale. A feature that allows displaying only the folders a user has permission to access would be much easier to maintain and could support multiple users through a single HUB configuration.

  15. Extend the Collaborations Endpoint to Support "Accepted" Status Filter

    Proposed Improvement:
    Extend the Box API Collaborations Endpoint to Support "Accepted" Status Filter

    Current Endpoint Description:
    The current Box API endpoint for retrieving collaborations (GET /collaborations) supports filtering by collaboration status, but it is limited to the status=pending parameter. This allows users to retrieve only pending collaboration invitations for files and folders. The endpoint is documented at:
    https://developer.box.com/reference/get-collaborations/#param-status

    Proposed Enhancement:
    Extend the GET /collaborations endpoint to include support for the status=accepted filter, enabling developers to retrieve all active (accepted) collaborations on files and folders owned by a specific Box user. This enhancement would improve the ability to manage and audit…

  16. Box drive for surface pro

    I have the latest surface pro laptop, but it says box drive is not compatible with this device. I use the drive version heavily for work and prefer not use a different content management software. . Surface pro suggested reaching out to box for support. The model features the Snapdragon X plus (10 core)/ X Elite. Can you provide an update that makes the drive compatible?

  17. Show Folder Size in GB/MB at root and tree level, inside

    To see, at a glance inside the Box.com web interface inspector, the file size allocated to each parent folder and should I click in, each sibling folder. Right now, the interface only gives the number of files, which is deeply unhelpful when trying to assess what folders are taking up how much storage...

  18. Change the warning message when external users change their password.

    The new feature "Enable detection of confirmed leaked passwords" has been applied.

    If an invited external user does not meet the password criteria, they will be required to change their password.

    When entering a new password, if the password does not meet the requirements, a message will appear stating "Password was exposed in a data breach"

    This message is confusing as it misleadingly suggests that a data breach has occurred on the tenant's side.

    Therefore, please change it to something appropriate, such as "The password you entered is weak, please make it more complex."

    新機能の「漏えいが確認されたパスワードの検出を有効にする」を適用してます。 招待された外部ユーザーがパスワード条件を満たしていない場合、パスワードを変更する必要があります。
    新しいパスワードを入力したとき、条件を満たしていないパスワードを入れると、「データ侵害で漏えいが確認されたパスワードです」とメッセージが表示されます。
    このメッセージでは、テナント側でデータ侵害が発生したという誤解を生むような表現となっており、混乱します。
    よって、「入力したパスワードは脆弱なので、より複雑なものにしてください」といった適した内容に修正してください。

  19. Filter the Sent Requests for tracking items as they are reviewed and signed

    There needs to be additional filters to be able to see responses to box sign requests by date. Specifically the updated column. Sorting this by date updated at a minimum. Having a column that lets you see and sort by recipient of the request would be beneficial as well. I have to limit what I use box sign for because I can not filter with enough criteria.

  20. The date format "YYYY/MM/DD" in a CSV file changes to "MM/DD/YYYY" when saved via Box for Office.

    If there is date data in the "YYYY/MM/DD" format in a CSV file created in Excel, saving it via Box For Office forcibly converts it to the "MM/DD/YYYY" format.

    The reproduction steps are as follows:

    (1) Launch Excel and create a blank workbook.
    (2) Enter a date in the "YYYY/MM/DD" format in a cell.
    (3) Click "File" → "Save As."
    (4) Click "Browse Box" when saving.
    (5) Select any Box folder as the save destination, choose "CSV (Comma delimited)" as the "Save as type," and click the "Save" button.

    • Even if you open the saved CSV file in Notepad, it…
