  1. Uploading files with exactly the same hash value on BoxDrive should not be recorded as a 'copy' in the user activity report

    If I upload a new file on Box Drive and then upload the same file (with the same hash value) again, the server copies the first uploaded file to reduce load and the user activity report records it as a copy. Even if these two file names are different!
    In this case, if I have a workflow triggered by 'upload' in Box Relay, the trigger may not work because the event is considered a copy.
    This behaviour is a limitation of the product specification, but I would like a fix so that it is treated as an upload.

  2. Please display the time range (hh:mm:ss) in the update date column.

    When sorting search results by modified date, the time (hh:mm:ss) is not displayed in the modified date column.
    This makes it difficult to guess the time range and find the file in the search results if many files were updated on the same day.
    Please display the time range (hh:mm:ss) in the update date column.

    検索結果を更新日時でソートする場合、更新日時の列に時間(hh:mm:ss)が表示されません。
    このため、同じ日に多くのファイルが更新された場合、時間範囲を推測して検索結果からファイルを見つけることが困難です。
    更新日欄に時間範囲(hh:mm:ss)を表示してください。

  3. Lock files when editing them from a shared link that all users can edit.すべてのユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクからファイル編集を行う際にファイルをロックをする。

    When editing from a shared link that can be edited by a user who does not have editing or access permissions, the file is not locked when starting the edit.
    Therefore, when saving files on Box, duplicate files with the same name are created.
    To avoid this behavior, I would like to be able to lock files even if users do not have editing privileges.

    (日本語)
    編集権限およびアクセス権限を持たないユーザーが編集可能な共有リンクから編集する際に編集開始時にファイルにロックがかけられません。
    したがって、Box上にファイルを保存する際に重複して同一の名前のファイルが作成される動作となります。
    この動作を避けるため、編集権限を持たないユーザーでもファイルロックをかけられるようにして欲しいです。

  4. Ability for admin to configure expiry duration of open links that are sent to recipient's

    Box Sign uses open links to distribute completed agreements to all recipients. This open link expires after 14 days. Some customers want to make this shorter or zero to protect sensitive information and some other customers want to make it longer as recipient's dont want to create accounts in order to access the agreement after the 14 day period.

    Please add a feature in admin console so that the admin can decide the expiry period for their enterprise

  5. Mistakes in collection operation

    The X-axis position of the "Open/Close" arrow and the "Delete" cross in the side menu of the browser version of Box are exactly the same,
    The X-axis position of the "Open/Close" arrow and the "Delete" cross are exactly the same.
    This causes frequent deletion of collections by mistake.
    (Especially when loading and displaying is slow and the folder expansion display is delayed by one tempo.)
    I would appreciate it if you could improve this problem.

  6. External user verification via TOTP for shared links

    Please consider adding a TOTP verification option for shared links. You could allow a link to be shared to an email address but require TOTP verification via that same email address. This would help verify that only someone with access to the email address we shared with can access the content without forcing them to signup for a free Box account.

    Thank you

  7. Display in Sign interface reason why for declined signature requests

    When a document is declined, the reason why it was declined is only available in one e-mail.
    It should be available on the document as well as in the web interface. I could put a comment on the document (why I wanted to reject it), and in the Reject field, but only the reason in the reject field was kept and only available in the e-mail that was received. After that, in Box SIgn, you see that the document was declined, but you d'ont know why. That is a huge limitation.

  8. Ability to authenticate the Box for EMM app from Safari to Microsoft Edge

    When logging in with the mobile app "Box for EMM", if SSO is linked with AzureAD, the built-in Safari will start and the sign-in screen will be displayed.
    I would like to see you implement the ability to switch this to Microsoft Edge using an App Configuration Policy in Intune.

    The Slack for EMM app has this function, so I will share the URL for your reference.
    https://slack.com/intl/ja-jp/help/articles/115002579426-OrG-

    The reason is that our company manages iPhone / iPad using AzureAD × Intune.
    We use AzureA conditional access when accessing each SaaS, and we set "Requires an approved client app" for…

  9. Improvements to Content Insights export & report automation

    Hello,

    Currently, one of our primary uses of box.com is for shared link file preview and download reporting (in our case for required analytics for grant based reporting). The file level 'Content Insights' feature is very helpful for this. However, the current .csv export offered in the content insights feature is lacking some of the key data that is available in content insights detailed preview, specifically for us the location & IP address data presented.

    Additionally, scheduled automation of a content insights report would be very helpful. We have mostly created this feature by customizing the 'User Activity' admin report,…

  13. Add "Open in Box Drive" function

    Add an "Open in Box Drive" UI option for the web app.
    This solves the problem of identifying a file or folder in the web app, wanting to work on the file or folder in Box Drive, and needing to leave the Web App to navigate through several steps to find that file in Box Drive.

    Ideally this should only be active on hosts that have Box Drive installed; it could be not presented, or disabled, on other hosts.

    For hosts that have Box Drive installed, this would allow:
    1. When activated for a folder, that folder as presented by…

  14. Limit the amount of data a user can download to prevent data theft by employees.

    Limit accidental or intentional bulk downloads.

    An ex-employee intentionally or accidentally connected his Network Attached Storage device to his Box account, and it downloaded big chunks of our Box data. We want to prevent very large amounts of data (client work and IP) from being downloaded by users, for example, within a logged-in session, within a set timeframe or by the size of the folder (ie. large folders over a specific size containing folders).

    This could be set per user with an enterprise-level default eg. 5GB. If someone tries to bulk download, the admin is altered. Users can request that…

  15. Ability to save alphabetical sorting

    Dennis Bartch
    1 year ago
    Platform: Windows 10 Enterprise v. 20H2

    Browser: Chrome v. 94.0.4606.71 (Official Build) (64-bit)

    Does anyone know if there a a way to save my "Files and Folders" sorting preference? I want to retain sort by "Name, ascending" as the default, but cannot find anywhere to save it, so every time I navigate away from a folder and return to it, I have to re-sort by name again. The default seems to be "Updated, descending."

  20. Disable expiration period change for public shared links only

    Currently it is possible to set up automatic expiration period for public shared links in Admin Console, which is an important security feature. However, users can extend the expiration period in Shared Link Settings. It would be more secure to disable expiration period extension for public shared links by users, while allowing them to change expiration periods for other types of shared links (company or collaborators only)
