Allow users to set Sort Preferences
Users should be able to save default sort preferences.
Currently I see "Least Recently Updated" documents first, which is never helpful.
I have to manually re-set the sort preference in every folder I work in.12 votes -
Functionality to embed and directly edit Excel in Box Note.
When a shared link is included in Box Note, it is possible to embed the preview of Box's interface. However, I request the ability to directly edit an Excel file when a shared link for Excel is included.
While Box Note does have a feature to insert tables, it inevitably falls short in functionality compared to Excel. Enabling direct online editing would allow for the maximum utilization of Box Note's collaborative editing capabilities.

Request for Early Improvement of Upload Speed for Large Files in BoxZones Environment (excluding the United States).
While improvements have been made in the past regarding upload speed in the NonZones environment, these improvements have not yet been implemented in the Zones environment.
There is no significant difference for small to medium-sized files, but there is a noticeable difference for large files of 1GB or more, with a roughly threefold gap observed in multiple upload speed measurements.
As employees regularly upload large-sized drawings, photos, videos, and other data in their daily tasks, this disparity leads to missed opportunities and decreased productivity.
Particularly, when transitioning from the NonZones environment to the Zones environment, it results in a deteriorated user…

Set values for "external_app_user_id" of Managed Users
We are developing a tool to extract user data from AD, Azure and other IDMs and provision them to Box via API.
We want to use the user IDs on the IDM as a user external key for Box so that we can track the associated Box account when the email address changes on the IDM side.
However, the current attribute "externalappuser_id" of Box users has the following limitationsOnly the App User can be set as the value.
Only some privileged users, such as service accounts for JWT-authenticated applications, can access this item.
For improved convenience, please…

Expand Capabilities for Adding External Collaborators to Relay Tasks/Notifications
Currently, a user can only add an external collaborator to a Relay Task/Notification if the following are true -
- The user owns the content
- The user has added the external collaborator to content
- The user has to have less than 5,000 external collaborators on items they own
Many customers have a closed folder structure, where one admin user owns all content, so this admin user would be the only one who can create the workflow with external collaborators added to tasks/notifications. For large organizations especially, this is difficult to administer and maintain, so ideally even users who do not own…

Lock content areas
Add the ability for the board owner to lock some content so that people cannot move it by accident. It helps when collaborating on a board with multiple users.

3rd Party Integrations and Pull Data from Other Sources
We would love to see Box Canvas have robust integration capabilities (e.g. MS Suite, Zoom, Miro, Mural, etc.) It would be great if we had the ability to pull data in from other sources (for example, MS Excel) to Box Canvas.

Support for previewing multiple files of a task by Relay manual start from the mobile app
When multiple files are selected and assigned tasks in Relay's Manual Start, the browser can preview multiple files in my task, but the mobile app cannot (on iOS, only one file can be previewed; on Android, an error occurs and it cannot be previewed).

Folder and file reports are output in a tree format, making it easier to understand the folder hierarchy.
The new platform version of the Folders and Files report is sorted by creation date by default.
This does not fulfill the role of a folder tree report.
If folders are not specified, sorting by all folder/file IDs, etc. into a tree format is impractical and affects business operations(Japanese)
「フォルダ・ファイルレポートがツリー形式で出力されることによって、フォルダ階層が分かりやすくなる。」新プラットフォーム版のフォルダとファイルレポートはデフォルトで作成日順でソートされます。
これではフォルダツリーレポートの役割を果たしていません。
フォルダを指定しない場合、すべてのフォルダ・ファイルID等でツリー形式にソートするのは現実的ではなく業務に影響します。12 votes -
Allow "date uploaded" / "date triggered" as metadata fields
Even though a file already has the date it was uploaded and modified attached to it, it would be useful to capture a date automatically like this in the same area where user-submitted metadata appears.
I would like a field in metadata templates and Relay similar to the date picker except that it only stamps the current date, so a file request could come in with metadata such as a user-entered email address and the date uploaded, without any chance of the user having picked a different date.
We need to download files and have their metadata visible, so we…

Ability for another user to "resolve" and / or reply to a comment or annotation
As a document owner, I want to be able to resolve comments / annotations made by other users. It would also be useful to be able to reply (in a thread) to a comment (e.g., to get clarification.)

Groups exportable Report needed
I think every organization's admin could use a quick User Groups report. Essentially it would look like the Groups page, with the addition of Shared Folders and names of members.
Columns:
Group Name
Created Date
Number of Members
Group's Admins
Group Members (Names)
Group Description

Relay admin should allow editing of relay flows
Users are confused when going into relay on the Admin dashboard vs. relay on the main toolbar in the user experience. Users should be able to edit relay flows when in the admin dashboard, or there should be clearer messages to users why they can't edit a relay flow in the admin. It leads users to create new workflows because they don't know where to edit the files.

Box API for creating a File Request

Ability to recognize a similar document to prepopulate signature, text, and other fields
In Docusign, we can upload a document and place the signature and text box fields required to save it as a template. Then later, when we upload that same document generated from our software (that is populated with the deal specific information), it recognizes a matching document as a template, so it places the fields without us having to manually place them. Using a template doesn't work since each contract has different information and it would be more information to manually transcribe than generate and place signatures.

Box Sign Completed Document Sent Via Email

Get separate (mapped) shared links for a large number of files under a shared folder
I am trying to generate separate shared links for a large number of files (1000+) under a folder, and map them to their original file name, so I can share these files separately.
But we can only do that either by the whole folder (not what we want), or by selecting files one by one (too time-consuming).
We hope there will be a function when you share a folder, we can also have the option to generate separate share links for each of the files under the folder, and a corresponding mapping file is generated automatically.
