  1. Box Sign - Tracking document opening and page views

    Would love to see a feature that tracks document opening and page views in the same way that DocSend & PandaDoc do.

  2. File upload restriction to ensure file name matches the folder name

    We would like to store files in the correct folder for each customer.
    What I want to say is that we have to accurately store files entrusted to us by our clients in the proper folders. However, this is done manually by a person, so it is possible to make a mistake but we are not allowed to make mistakes.

    Therefore, when storing files in a folder, we would like to establish a mechanism to block attempts to store files that do not match by having the file name and folder name match.
    Is this possible? If this is not possible,…

  3. Improve UI for folder structure drop-downs

    I find it visually confusing that the drop-down carat for my Folders is the same size, color, and thin-stroked icon as the "X" which deletes my folders. I can't tell you how many times I've inadvertently deleted a Favorite because my brain is expecting a 2nd drop-down menu. Some differentiation in color, size, position, treatment, etc. might help.

  5. No support

    It would be nice if Box would reinstate their support or fix storage meter faults after bulk deleting folders.

  6. Remove Box-branded Box Sync folder icon in MacOS Finder Sidebar

    I just want a normal-looking, unbranded folder in my Finder Sidebar.

    The current Finder Sidebar shows a rather ugly eye-sore of a logo in place of a plain folder icon, with no way to disable this customization so it pollutes every Finder window. I've tried pasting a new folder icon onto the Box Sync folder in the "Get Info" dialog box as is customary on MacOS for ALL other applications, but Box doesn't respect that icon (or the user's wishes).

  8. Add additional details in the the virus detection notification email

    During this time (2022/02/28, Monday, 13:00), I received a virus detection notification email.
    When I checked the contents, the upload date by virus detection notification email is 2020/06/16 9:36:17 JST,
    Neither the target file was found in the path of the email presentation.

    I contacted MKI Box Support Desk.
    We received the following answers.

    "The virus scan seems to be rescanned accordingly based on the activity of the file, not only at the time of upload.
    The frequency of scans is determined by the number of file activity.
    It can be difficult to explain the consistency of when this notification…

  10. Allow multiple System Email Signatures

    Use case of legal requirements/terms for sharing different types of data externally to be able to use multiple System Email Signatures. example: Assign a SES to a 'Footage' root folder where security footage is shared from versus a SES for 'Plans' which have much different requirements to accept.

  11. Specific Text Box Area for Notifications

    Problem: Whenever a notification popup shows up (file is done uploading, file has moved, etc) it blocks access to a lot of functionality in the upper part of the screen - even something that is to the left or right of the notification but is not covered up.

    Rather than having a popup notification to tell you that an event has finished (such as a file or folder being moved), instead create a static notification area to report to.

  12. Expand Window for Select Folders

    Change the Select Folder to Add window to a FULLSCREEN, adjustable, or with horizontal scrolling. I have PROPERTY folders and DEPT subfolders that I can't read in the mini window provided. I can skip this step and then go to the share and invite them, but it should not be required. I can't keep guessing whether or not I am assigning them to Human Resources or Housekeeping, simply because I can't see what I selected.

  13. Additional suggestions for creating reports by specifying keys when creating Box reports

    I want to accurately manage the content owned by the tenant's managed users. Currently, I am creating a report of "folders and files" of Box to retrieve data, and the output report is divided into 1 million object units. (My tenant is currently making about 70.).

    Since these reports are not sorted and the contents owned by each user are output to a file separately, they cannot be used even if they can be output at the same time. Our company automates report merging and folder sorting, which can take several hours.

    As an improvement request, it is requested to…

  14. Ability to retrieve the number of files for each folder through API

    The Box API allows users to get a list of the files contained in a folder, but it does not provide a direct way to get the number of files per folder, so we would like to provide a way to get the number of files.

  15. Allow Box Sign widget on web page

    Allow a Box Sign form based on a template to be posted on a web page via a widget where it can be signed by anyone that can access the web page and/or downloaded to be signed off-line and returned using a manual separate process.

    For example, I may have a generic form that can be completed by anyone interested in requesting a service or receiving information but the form requires a name and signature acknowledging terms and conditions before the request will be put into queue to be processed.

  16. Update File Request Date range

    File Request Date selector should show a wider range of years when selecting from the dropdown.

    Currently it shows from 10 years in the past to 10 years in the future. This makes entering date of birth very difficult.

  17. Ability to view the appropriate number of files on the Mobile app

    I use Box to deliver Photo Proofs to clients. It is crazy that there hasn't been a proper update would allow me to see their 'favorites'. Instead I have to rely on "Comments", which for clients on the go and using the Mobile App, is usually a hasel. I'm also trying to figure out why the script for correcting the Usage Space has not been rolled out across the board. I'm still waiting for the script to run on my account, because I'm definitely not using 40 gigs of my 50 gigs right now.

  18. Ability to manage access via a box group

    We have several Enterprise Box folders that we want all Box users to have access to as default. It has been a challenge to manage a group of all Box users manually. Would it be possible to have a Box group that automatically updates and includes all Box users so that it can be used to grant access to enterprise wide data that needs to be available to all users.

  19. Ability to send custom notifications for new uploads by external users

    A customer of ours reached out to ask if it is possible to configure email notifications for a Box folder to send to anyone who uploads a document into this folder. Specifically she is asking whether an automatic reply email can be created and sent to anyone who uploads a file into a folder she owns. This folder is for admissions purposes, so having every uploader adjust their email notification settings is not a practical solution in this case. Since this is not currently an option for Box, I wanted to submit this feedback to suggest for future releases.
