Box Automate: Local time zone support for date variables
We use Box Automate to move files into daily folders.
Because date/time variables are evaluated in UTC, workflows that run around local midnight (for example in JST) sometimes create folders with the previous day’s date.
We would appreciate it if you could add the following configuration options for the date/time variables used in folder and file names:(1) Ability to specify a time zone (e.g., Asia/Tokyo)
(2) Ability to perform date/time arithmetic (e.g., adding +9 hours to UTC)
＜Box Automate：日付変数のローカルタイムゾーン対応の要望＞
Box Automate でワークフロー実行日ごとにフォルダを作成・振り分けています。
現在は日付／時刻変数が UTC 基準で評価されるため、JST など UTC 以外の地域では深夜帯の実行時に前日の日付フォルダが作成されてしまいます。
フォルダ名・ファイル名用の日付／時刻変数について、以下を設定できる機能をご検討いただけますと幸いです。
(1) タイムゾーンの指定機能（例：Asia/Tokyo）
(2) 日時演算機能（例：UTC に +9 時間）6 votes -
Automate: Request for Copy Feature for Approval Tasks
When defining Outcomes in Box Automate, the copy function is useful for cases where similar outcomes need to be set up repeatedly within the same flow, for example when creating a flow that requires multiple rounds of approval, where there is likely to be considerable demand for this capability.
Currently, however, this option is not available for Approval Tasks, as the copy icon does not appear when the outcome type is an Approval Task.
It would be helpful if Approval Tasks could also support the same copy functionality as other outcome types.(日本語)
Box Automateで結果を定義する際、同じフロー内で類似の結果を繰り返し設定する必要がある場合にコピー機能が便利です。例えば、複数回の承認が必要なフローを作成する場合、この機能の需要はかなり高いと考えられます。しかし現時点では、結果が承認タスクの場合はコピーアイコンが表示されないため、コピー機能を利用できません。
承認タスクについてもほかの結果と同様にコピー機能がサポートされると、とても助かります。

We want to apply classification labels using Automate without granting Editors permission to change labels
In Relay, we had a workflow where users would manually trigger a workflow, assign an approval task, and upon approval, automatically change or assign a classification label. This was done to assign a label indicating that the content is ready for public release, enabling external sharing.
However, this cannot be achieved with Automate workflows. Upon checking the specifications, we found that unless the Admin Console allows Editors to modify classification labels, Automate workflows cannot assign labels. In our organization, we have only permitted Co-owners and Owners to change labels. If we allow Editors to change labels, general employees would be…

Allow for Duplication of Automate Workflows and Creation of Automate Templates
Currently, Relay has the ability to duplicate workflows, but Automate does not. We can also create templates for Relay workflows, but not for Automate. Automate should have the same capabilities.

Allow admins to control which Prompt Library items are visible at the tenant level
▼What problem could Box solve for you?
Box AI Home provides access to the Prompt Library, which helps users start with predefined prompts. However, in enterprise environments, not every prompt or prompt library is appropriate for every tenant, department, or business process.Administrators need the ability to control which prompt libraries are shown or hidden for their organization. Without this control, users may see prompts that are not relevant to their business, not aligned with internal policies, or not suitable for their industry-specific workflows.
▼Requested enhancement
Please add tenant-level administrative controls for the Prompt Library, allowing admins to:- View all…

Ability for end users (non admins) to adjust metadata
As Box is evolving more into metadata driven workflows for digital asset library use cases, we need the ability for end users (non admins) to be able to adjust metadata templates specific to their use case or business unit. For example, we'd like to have a champion from Marketing be able to adjust JUST the metadata templates specific to their group, not any metadata templates related to Legal or Sales.

Allow scheduling of Folder Insights Reports
The ability to schedule the Folder Insights reports (Collaborations | Folder Activity | Shared Links) would open up greater reporting capability and remove manual work in generating these reports.
This is especially beneficial in enterprises where multiple agencies' content is stored, with different agencies having different reporting requirements (i.e. weekly auditing of external collaborators on their content)

Select multiple folders as the location filter for Views in Box Apps
I would like the ability to select multiple folders as the location filter for Views in Box Apps. For example, I may have a project folder with a metadata template cascading to all subfolders, but I only want to see content from 2 out of the 3 subfolders in the View.

Export transparent images using Box Canvas
When exporting Box Canvas as an image, I want to be able to make the background transparent.
Currently, when exporting Box Canvas as an image, the background appears white. Since there are cases where it's more convenient to have no background color when pasting into another medium, I would like the option to export only the elements drawn on the Box Canvas as an image, with the background set to transparent.

Box Canvasを画像としてエクスポートする際に、背景を透過できるようにしたい。
Box Canvasでは画像としてエクスポートする際に、背景は白で表示されます。別の媒体に貼り付ける際、背景色が無い方が使いやすいケースもあるため、Box Canvas上に描画されているもののみ画像化し、背景は透過状態を選択できるようにしてほしい。6 votes -
Ability to Reassign Group Admin Permissions En Masse
Via the GUI, it would be great to be able to reassign group admin permissions to a user for multiple groups in bulk. Use case is one user is admin for many internal groups, they leave the org, and their admin role requires replacement.

Large Folder Operations dashboard with status, ETA, rollback, and reporting
Requesting a centralized Large Folder Operations Dashboard in the Box Admin Console or via API to improve visibility and control over major content transfers.
During a large folder ownership change, an unexpected behavior occurred where ownership polling and job sequencing did not reflect the actual state of completion. This led to a move propagating recursively from an empty child folder to an inherited, multi-million-object parent folder.
A built-in dashboard would provide transparency into large operations and prevent this class of issue from occurring silently.
Proposed Capabilities
-Status Tracking — show all active or queued large folder transfers (ownership, move, or…

Request new report by file extension
While you can check rough file types from the storage in admin insights, there are many situations in operations where you need to understand capacity and file counts at the extension level. I would like to request a report that can show file sizes by extension. I also want it to support filtering by owner.
管理者インサイトのストレージから大まかなファイルタイプを確認できますが、運用では拡張子の粒度で容量や件数を把握したい場面が多くあります。拡張子ごとのファイルサイズを確認できるレポートの提供を希望します。所有者ごとのフィルタリングにも対応してほしいです。

Add PKCE Support for OAuth2 Applications
Currently, Box requires developers to use a client secret for OAuth 2.0 apps, which in turn requires standing up and maintaining a backend service just to exchange authorization codes securely.
While this is secure, it creates a huge amount of friction for developers who want to build modern, client-side applications such as single-page apps (SPAs) or mobile apps. In many cases, the only reason a backend exists is to hold a secret, nothing else.
If Box supported PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange), developers could authenticate directly from the client without needing a backend at all, just as they can…

Improve visibility and speed of LFOs within Box
I’d like to share some feedback about the lack of visibility and the slow speed of Large File Operations (LFOs) in Box, particularly when moving large folders or performing ownership changes.
These actions cause unavoidable downtime, but there’s no clear timeframe provided, and all items under the affected folders become inaccessible until the process finishes. This is creating significant headaches for our IT operations, especially as we’re working through major corporate restructuring. We’re forced to schedule these migrations on weekends to minimize disruption and open support tickets as a safety net in case the operations extend into the workweek and…
