Maintain Metadata when Copying a File
Currently, Metadata (custom metadata and applied metadata templates/values) that's been added to a file is NOT maintained when a file is copied in Box. This request is to add the functionality - perhaps as an option in the 'Copy' flow - to copy a file's Metadata as well.

Remove OneDrive & SharePoint as storage location when deploying Box for Teams
Box is our central location for all content across our company. We also use Microsoft Teams for collaboration, which is why we're excited to roll out the new Box integration with Teams. However, there are still ways users can accidentally upload files to OneDrive & SharePoint. This may be a Microsoft limitation, but can Box find a way to remove these as options when we turn on your integration? We want Box as the only storage location for any file uploaded to Microsoft Teams.

There are already exposed API endpoints for customers to programmatically export/download all content that's being held as part of a Legal Hold Policy - https://docs.box.com/reference#legal-holds-object, but some customers don't have development resources and would prefer for this functionality to be simply exposed as an 'Export Content' button on the Legal Hold Policy UI itself.

Incorporate Box Sign in Box Relay
Including the ability to ask for signatures with Box Sign as an action on Relay would be useful, just as being able to assign a task which is available at the moment. This is vital especially in the case of approvals that need to be legally valid.

We have introduced a New ‘Sign event’ trigger in Relay based on completed / cancelled / expired / declined document status in Box Sign to Select one or many file / folder / task / metadata / notification outcomes in Relay to build downstream workflow.

We would like the Box Sign sender experience to revert back to its previous state to show "others only".
Until now, the sender experience for Box Sign has been able to select "Other People Only".
As background, a workflow has been set up in an environment where the signature field is only for non-senders, but the flow has stopped because it is waiting for a signature from a sender who is not in the signature field.
We are aware of a workaround by changing the sender's role from "signer" to "receive a copy," but this has caused a lot of frustration because it is not as easy to operate.
We would like to see the Sender Experience returned to…23 votesThank you for the feedback, the default role of the sender is now changed to "Get a Copy" , the discoverability of how to change recipient role & settings was also improved
