File Request uploads to Box include uploader's user information
The following would be ideal:
When uploaded via File Request and logged into Box, the uploaded file(s) will contain the uploader's user information such as name, email address, and more (more detailed information such as tracking code values) in metadata.This idea is based on a use case of a college where a large number of students submit documents via File Request, and college administrators want to make sure which document was submitted by who, referring to the document's metadata.

Visual indicator when Box Canvas user is just a viewer, not editor
When using Canvas as a viewer, the user may try to vote on the sticky notes, or try to locate the toolbar, and think that something is broken, when in reality they are looking for features available to editors only.
We should consider adding some visual indicator of the "view only" status e.g. a banner or a badge at the top, an icon over which a user can hover over to get more info, or an icon by the cursor arrow to indicate editing is disabled.

Box for Outlook Add-in fixed to save emails as .msg
When trying to save an email using the "Save to Box" Add-in, the only option is .eml. This was an old format for outlook express. Once an email is saved in this format, it cannot be opened in Outlook client. There needs to be an option for .msg. Using the File > Save As option allows you to change the extention, but that is extra steps. Outlook web will allow you to open the saved email, but you cannot save it as a .msg after the fact.

Add ability to include a Name for external Box Sign recipients
Would like ability to add a name for external parties when adding recipients to a sign request.
Currently for external sign recipients, we can only include their e-mail address. As a result, the name of the signer is not included the signing log file. With only an email address it can be difficult to identify the person that actually signed.
Note: Understand that the adding the Name field to a sign request will populate it on the signing log but looking to input this at the send stage.

Google Workspace - Add Collaborators/Check for Collaborators
The Google Workspace add-on only allows you to create a Shared Link to share files/folders, you cannot add/remove collaborators. It would be great to have the ability to add folks as collaborators, rather than just choosing from Shared Link settings. Additionally, it would be great if when sharing the file it could be recognized that recipients on the email and/or calendar invite do not have existing permissions to the file/folder (similar to what Google does.)

Draft (Signer) - Save and Finish later option for signers / preserve information provided by signers without completing the request
Signers have requested a "Save and Finish Later" option, so they can partially fill out and save it, close and come back later to continue filling out where they left off. This is a feature docusign has and would be great to have on Box sign as well.

Add Box Sign as an option in MSFT Teams approval workflows.
In MSFT Teams there is an approval workflow which has e-signature as an outcome. Currently the only options are DocuSign or Adobe Sign and we would like to utilize Box Sign as the solution as opposed to DocuSign or Adobe Sign.

Support parenthesis in search
For investigations or subject access requests, the search queries that we need to run tend to include many different options that require combinations of boolean operators AND and OR.
For instance I might need to search for user first name or last name or nichname combined with the topics for the search. The search would take this form ideally:
("A" OR "B" OR "C") AND ("D" OR "F").As currently parenthesis are not supported in search, I must run 6 distinct searches to get the desired results (A AND D, A AND F, B and D...) and this results in…

Automated File renaming (at scale) - Programmatic creation of workflows
When a file is moved to any folder called “#Archive”, the file should be renamed with a prefix of “OLD_”
For example: I have a file called “mywordfile.docx” I now want to archive this file, so I drag it into a folder call “#Archive”. Box Automation should then rename my file to “OLD_mywordfille.docx”
Problem statement
The box automation trigger “when file moved to folder” requires an explicit folder path. Meaning I would need to configure a rule per “#Archive” folder within our folder structure. We have many. So, manually setting up relay for every single #Archive folder is not a…6 votes -
User Classification
Our organization uses Box to manage our controlled documentation. To access this information people, need to meet certain criteria to access certain types of documents. Box is great for classifying documents, but we are looking for a way to classify users to make it easy to know if we are able to share a specific document with a specific user. We would like to be able to add a property, tag, or some other identifier to a user's profile that would allow us to classify a user as a specific type. We would then like this classification to become a…

More SSO Granularity
It would be great if we could have more granularity with SSO rules instead of just applying them universally. Having something like an SSO admin account that can log in with credentials and set SSO to test mode when an identity provider outage happens would be ideal. Right now the only option to recover login access when an identity provider outage occurs is to submit a support ticket and hope for a timely response.

Create content "frames" in Canvas
Add a "frame" option as a new structural element distinct from a shape. Frames would allow you to move all the content inside it, and when you zoom out on a board, the caption of the frames should display so you can easily see all the frames and what they're about.

Fix broken "reverse waterfall" permissions
Fix broken "reverse waterfall" permissions.
When I change subfolder permissions to give someone higher permissions (e.g. Editor to Co-Owner), it changes the parent folder permissions too.
This makes sense that you wouldn't be able to give someone lower permissions in the subfolder than the parent folder, but makes no sense the other way around.
