  1. ”Priority" lock feature (There is no way to open an Office file that is being edited online in Box Edit.)

    Currently, if a user has a file open in OfficeOnline, that file cannot be opened in Box Edit.
    If I want to perform operations that are only possible in the local Excel application (e.g. sheet or macro operations) and a colleague comes home while editing in Online, my work comes to a halt.

    Can you please implement a priority lock function that works as follows.
    1. click "Priority Lock" on a file that someone is editing online.
    2. Only the latest version of the target file is copied to the same folder as a separate file with "(1)". After that,…

  2. View in Box Drive from Box.com

    Our team primarily uses Box Drive. When we send Box.com links around, it is very cumbersome to then have to navigate to the file in Box Drive if you need to use Box Drive to access it.

    A button should be added to the web version of Box.com to "View in Box Drive" which would then launch the Finder (Mac) or Explorer (Windows) location of that file in Box Drive.

  3. Ability to skip blank optional fields from file request when renaming based off of the metadata

    Is there a condition I can enter in the Relay to not display -(missing)MetadataOptional- in the automatically renamed file if the optional fields in a file request are blank?

  4. Phone number format prompt

    When setting 2FA by SMS, Box should update this part of the web site to specify exactly what format the phone number needs to be entered in.
    E.g. "7797123456" and not +447797123456, 447797123456, +44(0)7797123456 etc.

    Although it seems to work with or without a leading zero, it would be better to not include it as it is not part of the "phone number"

  5. Blind Guide - Instructions for new collaborators

    I wish to state my ongoing frustration with sharing collaborative folders with my clients via box. The instructions for me, as part of a subscribed user group, are clear. The instructions for a new user who we invite to collaborate ARE NOT. You put me in a position of the blind guide when the client or collaborator asks me for help getting to the files – and Box has not provided sufficient instructions. I suspect Box assumes because I have logged into box as a new user once in the past, that I know how to coach a new user…

  7. Folder copy rights for non-editor role

    When a user wants to copy subfolders from folder A to B, he needs Editor role for folder A. This doesn‘t make sense e.g. when folder A shouldn‘t be changed by the user. Please enable copy function to lower roles Previewer/Uploader and Viewer.

  8. Ability to Stream to TV via Airplay, etc.

    Option to be able to live stream to a TV. I have many of my photos/videos saved on Box so I don't have to store them on my phone, but I can't stream them to a TV and the ability to do that would be nice.

  9. Search function - update date of the property data held by the document as a search condition.

    The current full-text search function searches for the date of uploading to Box,
    But I want to use the update date of the property data held by the document as a search condition.

    現在の全文検索機能では、Boxにアップロードした日が検索対象となるが、
    ドキュメントが保持するプロパティデータの更新日を検索条件の対象としたい。

  10. Create a default Email Notifications message for all senders

    The 'message' sent with a Sign document is very generic. I's like the ability to configure the standard message, then allow it to be edited before a Sign document is sent.

  11. Request for improvement of mobile app features

    I would like to request improvements to the following features of the mobile app:

    1.Regarding the ‘biometric authentication’ when the security option ‘Require passcode’ is enabled, biometric authentication cannot be used on Android tablets equipped with facial recognition. I would like it to be modified so that it can be used.

    2.Regarding the selection of passcode timeout time, there is an ‘immediate’ option on iOS, but not on Android. I would like it to be modified so that ‘immediate’ can be selected on Android as well.

  12. Feedback Area in Mobile app and Web app

    Should be interesting to have some area to send feedback in the mobile app and web app or maybe some link to redirect to this page. It was difficult for me, for me, to discover this page to send a simple feedback. It will turn easy for the users to send ideas and some issues

  13. Download a List of Folders

    An option to download a .csv (or other convertible file) of the text titles of folders within a main folder.

    (I am requesting as I need to verify contents in several hundred folders, and cannot easily keep track of what folder has or needs content. But also because I know other would find this useful for their own purposes as well)

  14. Ability to have an Access Rule that limits an anonymously shared link to an IP address range.

    We have documents stored in Box that we have used the anonymous shared link option. The reason we need this link is to manage the number of Box licenses. We have a large number for folks that need to view or download these documents and do not need to update or edit them. So a license does not make sense for them. We do what to limit access to these links to the internal folks only. We have explored setup of Access Rule to limit, being anonymous link, the rule does not apply. We would like to add the ability…

  17. Box Shuttle - Ability to View and Modify Queued Migrations order

    It would be nice to be able to see what I've added to the queue, the ability to delete a queued migration or re-order it. It would also be great if you could note which can be ran simultaneously and which should be ran one after the other.

  18. Turn off document update and refresh notification

    When a document is uploaded, a semi-permanent notification box appears in Box, preventing me from opening another document or doing anything else in Box. My only options are to click the options in the notification or to use one of my browser's navigation options (back, refresh, etc.). The extra clicks really slows down my workflow when I am updating and working on multiple documents in one folder.

    Please allow us to turn off these updated document notifications.

  19. Copy/Create File Request via Salesforce API

    I would like to be able to create a new file request URL via the Salesforce API. I can create a new folder associated to a new record, but I would like to be able to automatically create a File Request URL for the new folder that was created for the new record.

  20. Bulk integration action for Dolby.io (or others)

    The Dolby.io integration is what brought our team to Box. It's incredibly useful. However we work with large numbers of files and clicking each one to have it processed by Dolby is tedious and difficult to track. The option to select multiple items for Dolby processing would be very helpful. Or possibly allow a workflow integration.
