The only templates in Relay are company templates and My Templates.
Our company has templates that we want to publish for each group, so we would like you to provide the ability to publish templates to groups.

File size limits for File Request uploads
We have tried using the File Request to encourage our supply chain to upload files directly from our filing system on Box instead of using unathorised file transfer services, however it frequently fails due to file size. I note in the FAQ that the maximum file upload size is limited by that permitted by the content submitter - it would be more useful if the file upload size was based by that permitted by our account as the organisation requesting the file. As the File Request service also doesn't permit uploading of folders, this often means our content submitters have…

Cannot use Microsoft explorer search function for Box Drive
I cannot use the Microsoft explorer search function to select all the pictures stored offline in my box Drive directory under several sub directories using *.jpg function. I use Box to save a back up of my picture files. The only solution was to duplicate a separate directory with the sub directories of all the picture files in my hard drive and use *.jpg to select the pictures to play in the slide slow. This problem is NOT there for Drop Box or Mega directories where Microsoft explorer search function works fine. The native Box search function cannot be used…

Store all generated Box Reports into a Single Shared Folder for the Enterprise
Need a common folder in the enterprise to store reports generated by box by admins and various co-admins. This will reduce the load on the box platform as well as it will significantly reduce duplicate runs. One such way to do this would be Instead of creating new "Box Reports" folder under every user who runs the report enhance the report generation feature to module to look for a folder name "Box Reports" and if exists then upload the reports there. Alternatively make a it an enterprise setting where admin can pre-designate a folder where all generated reports will be…

Allow file to be opened from web UI on double click.
I like that I can see the preview and other information on the file when I click on the name. However, I would prefer for the file to be opened when I double click on it, instead of having to click and then having to go and click on another menu to open in Microsoft Word. It would be great to have the ability to single-click to view the details, as it is now, and double-click to automatically open a file in Microsoft Word.

Passwords on File Request links

virus metadata
With the virus scan metadata template that is available on an account with shield and virus scan on, I would like to see this metadata applied and visible on all files in my organization, not just those that have been detected as containing malicious content.
It looks like the template was designed for wide spread application since its "scan status" fields contain results such as clean, suspicious,unscanned and unknown along with the malicious result.
In this way we could have better understanding of how the box antivirus saw a file and be more wary when the results are such as…

Ability to Enable/Disable Annotations
We would like to request for a feature to be able to enable/disable Annotations.
Annotations is very convenient, but sometimes it could make users confusing, if they do not know how to use it.
Therefore, we would be grateful if there is a feature to be able to disable Annotations, and then enabling afterwards.10 votes -

Change a specification of the PST time given when conflicting item's name on Box Relay.
Currently, no matter what timezone users/enterprise set in its settings, the PST timestamp will be added to the item's name when conflicting name on Relay.
The specification will be changed to add the date and time depending on the user/enterprise settings.

Feature requests
I wish Box notes were more like DropBox Paper. Top things I like:
- The editor is essentially a live Markdown editor so nearly all formatting doesn’t require leaving the keyboard.
- Full support for Markdown export.
- Comments can be attached to each paragraph - so much better than the one thread per Box note.
- Links are properly clickable without the silly ‘link bubble’
- Auto-generated ToC

Task lifecycle should reside with the document, not the creator of the task
When a user assigns a task on a document, and then leaves the enterprise, the task is deleted from the document when the user is deleted.
The task is actually a part of the document's lifecycle, not the lifecycle of the user. If the content is owned by the enterprise, the termination of the user should not cause the task to be deleted.
Our use case is this:
Internal auditor gathers content and places it in Box
Internal auditor assigns a task to the Finance Director and CFO to review the content
Finance Director and CFO approve the task.

Rename items and custom order in Collections
Collections are great! Now the possibility to customize the display order as well as to rename items without affecting the actual folder/file name would be great additions
10 votesThanks for the feedback. Currently, collections are sorted by 1) Favorites and 2) personal Collections in alphabetical order. We do not have plans currently to allow renaming items or sorting order.

User activity report
In the activity report, exporting Collaboration Approval gives the following output:
Invite external users to the "folder" of your company tenant.
Only the folders invited to "Processed Items" are displayed.Invite external users to the "file" of your company tenant
The folder path is displayed in "Processing item", but the file name and file ID of the invitation file are not displayed.
This specification confuses the user and is not suitable for following the path to the invite folder.
Please unify "Folder path", "Folder/file name" and "Folder/file ID" as output results.10 votes -
Set enterprise settings via api
We have an open risk item on the Box platform due to lack of controls on change management.
Specifically:
Box console settings must be manually performed across dev, test and production environments.
Lack of automated mechanisms to maintain consistency with the settings across the environments may allow weaknesses in lower environments (dev/test) to be exploited to exfiltrate data or modify data or inconsistencies between functionality tested in lower environments and what is configured in prod.
We would like the ability to be able to configure the settings via API so we can build environment management into out CICD pipeline. We…10 votesWe are not planning to bring API endpoint for settings update, as many settings require manual input after asynchronous data aquisition outside of Box.

Allow users to easily set retention on an individual file or folder
End users need to have the ability to easily apply retention policies to individual documents. They should be able to click an apply policy button, choose the policy and click OK
Policies should be able to be configured so that users only see policies that apply to them or they have access to.10 votesPlease help us understand the use case more, as the ability to apply retention is typically not extended to end users.
