  2. NetSuite/Box - enable the ability to add the work order issue, work order completion, work order close records with the integration

    Adding functionality to the work order issue, work order completion, work order close records would help customers that leverage the Manufacturing NetSuite module. At this point, it is not available through the integration because the above records are created dynamically and are not static.

  3. Back up the data in the box to other storage in case of box incidents.

    We want to back up Box to other cloud storage or servers in case we cannot access the contents due to Box incidents.
    We would like to have the feature to migrate Box data to other clouds.

    Recently, there have been many Box incidents, and we need to take action to ensure that we can carry out our business in any situation.

    Boxの障害が発生しても業務を遂行するために、Boxのバックアップを他クラウドやサーバーに持ちたい。そのためBoxから他クラウドなどに同期できる機能が必要である。

    最近Boxの障害の影響を受けることが多く、万が一Boxがにアクセスできなくても、業務を遂行できるような対策を考えなければならない。

  4. Sharing UI

    More clearly subdivide the "Sharing" panel between the upper "Invite People" section and the lower "Share Link" section. The minutely thin gray line between the two doesn't adequately differentiate the two options. New users will tend to complete both options when only one sharing method is needed.

  6. I would like to have the ability to display folders fixed on Box Drive search.

    We are aware that the search function of the Box Drive requires a search to be performed each time.
    Since it is time-consuming to search each time, we would like a setting function that allows the desired folder to be displayed (arbitrarily selected) when the Box Drive search screen is launched so that folders can be easily checked.

    Box Driveの検索機能は、都度検索をかける必要があるのは認識しています。
    毎回検索をすると手間であるため、フォルダの確認がしやすいようにBox Drive検索画面立ち上げ時に希望のフォルダを表示(任意選択)可能な設定機能が欲しい。

  7. Change Login Without Confirmation

    We should be able to use the API/CLI to change a user's login to a new unconfirmed email without requiring their confirmation. This would mirror the behavior available though the Box Admin Console web page.

    With the usage of SSO it is critical that the SSO Provider user email address and the Box login address remain the same. It is currently possible to use the API/CLI to add a new alias, have the user confirm it, and set that as the Box login ID. I feel it would be best to avoid the confirmation step.

    This way we could automate…

  10. File recipient splash page - download link is hard to locate, sign-up link is prominent.

    It is confusing to clients that receive files from us in Box, that do not need them to have an account, when the link points to a splash screen that displays a prominent green 'Go To My Account' button in the top right corner. Below the button is the download link, but it is a nondescript grey down arrow without any text indicating that this is how to download. Many clients are confused and we get callbacks about not being able to download or log in. Please change it so the download link is at the top and is labeled…

  11. Document Expiration Reminder Set up

    I would like to request for additional features that we are looking for. It is regarding the Document Expiration Reminder.
    For every document archived, especially in Agreement or subscription, we can set up the reminder prior to expiration of the agreement.

  12. password reset scheduling during holidays

    I am writing to request consideration of scheduling password changes to avoid peak vacation times. As a citizen developer, I do not have a dedicated team to manage these changes and it can be difficult to find time to complete the updates while also taking time off for vacation.

    I understand the importance of regularly updating passwords for security purposes, but I believe that scheduling these updates during times when fewer people are likely to be on vacation would minimize disruptions and make it easier for everyone to stay on top of this important task.

  13. Enable us to tag folders with specific colors, to indicate whether they're populated or not.

    I would like to be able to tag folders (or choose their literal color, green red blue etc) to indicate whether or not they're complete, incomplete, populated, etc. My company often uses Box to sort invoices and W9 forms for contractors we hire on individual projects, and tracking down all that paperwork can be tedious. If I can, for example, color a folder Grey if it's empty, Yellow if it has an invoice but is missing a W9, and Green if it's fully populated, it'll save me the trouble of having to manually enter each folder and check.

  14. Ability to filter recent files by file extension

    It would be great to be able to filter files in the Recent Files section by extension, access date, etc. Currently you can't sort anything. My use case was easy. I knew I had access one Excel file one week before but couldn't remember the name nor the real date. instead of scrolling in the whole list, I could have selected "Excel / spreadsheet file" to see only these files for a faster search.

  16. Ability to preview contents of the files contained in the zip file

    Box can list all the folders and files contained in the zip file, however it doesn't allow us to preview the contents of each files contained in the zip file.
    We need to download the zip file to preview the contents.

    It would be better to have ability to preview the contents of the each files so that we can complete our work within Box.

  17. Enable to see full file name on ipad (especially)

    Please enable to see full file name on iPad. We usually name a file long name containing project name and code in order to manage files easier by project. But if do so, we couldn't see full file name by using iPad since the view is similar to the web. This situation is worse for construction field and we hope it will change like moblie view(iPhone's view).

  18. Allow users to click outside of the Refresh File pop-up box without having to click Cancel or Ok

    Currently you can't do anything on the screen without clicking one of the options on the Refresh File pop-up box that appears after editing. 90% of the time, I'm trying to leave that screen and I don't need to see the updated version because I just edited it. If that box could disappear if I click anywhere on the screen, that would be ideal.

  20. Box Uploader should be also listed as the Box File Owner

    It is frustrating to see that the Owner of a Box Folder structure, is listed automatically as the Document Owner. Can this be changed to reflect the Owner as the person who uploaded the file instead. So if there are any questions on files, it goes to the right person, rather than to a Box Folder Owner who actually would have to field and re-direct as appropriate which is not ideal.
