Allow for creation of custom permission levels (roles).
We want to share files to an external collaborator, but want to restrict the download and allow editing.
Request: Add new custom roles and assign them preview, link, edit, and they would have to use our Office 365 to modify within Box?

Allow users to know whether a file has been updated via Box Drive.
Add notifications on file updates within Box Drive. If a file is currently updated, we need to view notifications in the web browser as Box Drive does not show this.

Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

SSO Required to have exemptions for Admin(s)
This actually makes a lot of sense as we have it for Device Trust, but we would like SSO Required WHILST exempting an admin or two. If the IdP is down, no one can get in and this would create a catastrophic business impact.

Shared Link Details: Add 'Last Usage' Column
The Shared Link Details report is a great report currently that provides admins a wealth of information when performing an 'inventory' or security review of all existing shared links.
One additional column that would be very helpful to include is a 'Last Usage' column that would provide a date entry for each shared link.
Usage is defined as the last time someone actually used that link in a browser. This is helpful to admins to be able to know if a link is still being used or not (prior to disabling it for security reasons.)17 votes -
Restrict content creation at the user or group level
Request: Root content creation to be set at user or group level instead of the tenant so that the majority wouldn't have to sacrifice a open folder structure for a small subset of users with constraints. Ultimately looking for a hybrid solution.

While we don’t have any current plans to support this feature, I would recommend the following workaround to use the ‘Description’ field that appears at the top of a folder. You can even add hyperlinks into the description! More information is available here: https://community.box.com/t5/How-to-Guides-for-Migrating-and/Adding-Descriptions-to-Folders-and-Files/ta-p/58565

Make folder/file description visible again under the File/Folder name vs new details pane
Description of file/folder has been moved to the details pane on the right side. My customer is seeing this as a regression and not as user friendly as before and would like to see description to come back under folder/file name (like in old UI) as opposed to the Details pane in New UI
17 votesThanks for the suggestion, however, at this time, we do not plan to revert the changes to the description pane.

Allow Excel's Shared Workbook feature to work on Box.
Microsoft Excel has a feature called Shared Workbook that allows multiple users to edit Excel file simultaneously and still migrate each modifications into each others' Excel files.
Box doesn't support this type of feature, but Google and Dropbox supports to notify users on (Office) file modification status to provide similar feature / user experience.
Dropbox:
https://blogs.dropbox.com/dropbox/2015/10/dropbox-badge-now-available/17 votesWhile we won’t be building in support for the Shared Workbook feature as requested, we will be providing capabilities in the near-future that will provide more visibility when you open a file that is locked in order to prevent file editing conflicts.

Enable processing in folders with editor permissions in Box Automate
Currently, due to Box restrictions, if the option “Limit sending invitations to collaborators to folder owners and co-owners only” is enabled for a folder specified in an Automate flow, and the flow owner specifies a folder to which they have been invited as an editor, errors will occur for “task assignments, file operations, and folder operations,” causing the process to fail.
Many companies allow co-owners and higher-level users to be invited, but if that were the case, it would significantly reduce usability under the current system. Therefore, I would like the workflow to function properly even when folders with editor…

Increase of the upper limit on the number of metadata templates that can be created and permission management for metadata templates
Currently, our company has a wide variety of unstructured data, and we would like to make use of metadata templates. However, there are significant differences in the templates that each on-site team wants to use. At present, metadata templates can only be created up to 500 per tenant, which leads to competition over templates. We would like to be able to create an almost unlimited number of metadata templates.
In addition, once a metadata template is created, it becomes viewable across the entire tenant, which feels inconsistent with Box’s underlying philosophy of content-level permission management. We would like metadata templates…16 votes -
AI-Powered Confirmation Before Adding Collaborators/Sending Links
I’d like Box to add an AI-powered confirmation step when users invite collaborators to a file or folder or send shared links to other users. The AI would quickly scan the content, detect PII or sensitive information, understand the context, and check whether the invited collaborator seems appropriate (e.g., external domain, personal email, unrelated teammate). If something looks unusual, Box would display a confirmation prompt asking the user to verify the invitation. This would help prevent accidental oversharing and reduce security risks caused by human error, while still keeping the collaboration workflow smooth.

Allow separate notification messages for task assignment and completion
Currently, when creating a general or approval task, the same notification message is sent both when the task is assigned and when it is completed.
As a result, recipients of the message can sometimes become confused.I would like the ability to set different notification messages for task assignment and task completion.
〈タスク割り当て時と完了時の通知メッセージを個別に設定したい〉
現在、一般タスクや承認タスクを設定した際、タスクの割り当て時と完了時の両方で、
同じ通知メッセージが送信されます。そのため、メッセージの受信者が混乱してしまうことがあります。タスク割り当て時用とタスク完了時用で、それぞれ異なる通知メッセージを設定できるようにしてほしいです。

Request to add output items to the Box Hubs Report
Could you please include the "Hub Settings" items in the output of the Box Hubs Report?
After a Hub is created, the creator configures access and collaboration settings for the Hub in "Hub Settings."
As Box administrators, we would like to have an overview of access and collaboration settings for each Hub.
While the settings can be checked individually in Content > Hubs by clicking into each Hub, it is necessary to open each one separately to confirm the configurations.
Therefore, it would be much more convenient if "Hub Settings" could be reviewed collectively in the report.16 votes -
We want all content to be displayed in Hub without using the "Show more" button.
When a large amount of content is placed in a single block in Hub, not all of the content is displayed in the UI, and users need to click "Show more" to see the rest.
We would like all content to be displayed without having to use the "Show more" button.
Hubで1ブロックにコンテンツを大量に配置した際に、すべてのコンテンツがUI上に表示されず、ユーザーは「さらに表示」をクリックする必要があります。
「さらに表示」を使うことなく、すべてのコンテンツが表示されるようにしたいです。
