bulk manage Shared Links
Provide a way for all shared links in an account to have their permission levels / access levels / expiry dates modified in bulk, rather than having to change each one individually which is extremely time consuming for large doc sets.

Dynamically name signed documents based on metadata: signer's full name, company, email and others
When there are documents in the same folder or templates that are repeatably signed with the same name (Ready Sign Link, Batch Send), Box Sign adds a number and () to the filename to note the different/unique files.
There needs to be a better way to name the files - perhaps using metadata or using the unique id of the sign request. And then all files - signed docs and signed log would be renamed with the same name. Otherwise it's very hard to tell files apart when they all have the same name with just a number and ()…

Hubs permission model should be more granular
Currently in the Box Hubs Beta, all collaborators invited into a Hub receive the "Viewer" permission on files and folders linked in the Hub. This does not allow for Hub content to be view-only and block downloading of content. Alternative methods of managing this such as rolling out classification policies would not be scalable as Hubs usage grows. It would be great if Hubs collaboration could be more granular and there was an ability to invite users or groups into a Hub with other permissions such as "Previewer" so they are more restricted on what they can do after accessing…

Ability to open a file in Box Drive from a shared link accessed via the web
After opening a shared link in Web App, a user should be able to open the file directly in Box Drive.

Create a Box group/alias or ability to select a different name to replace the workflow owner’s name.
I’ve created several Relay workflows across the business and the issue I found is that people are reaching out to me because my name is tied to a task that is assigned to them. Often times, I do not have any context to the workflow so it results in me having to reach out to the person who started/uploaded the document. We want to avoid approvers having to reach out to the workflow owner vs. the actual owner of the program. This process would not be sustainable if it were rolled out to a larger company.
Currently Example: Hayley creates…

External collaboration Allow list per group
We would like to limit the external collaboration to allowed domains for a specific group not the entire tenant.
This is useful when the subsidiary company, especially a financial company, can have a limited external collaboration for security reason.106 votes -

Ability to download comments and print comments
Would like the ability to download and/or print comments associated with a file. Perhaps via additional selections to "Download Comments" and "Print w/Comments".
I understand downloading comments may need to be a separate file as the content could be in various application types and comments are not created in that document type. Printed files convert to PDF so it would be great if the comments could be converted to PDF and added directly to the printed file.
Downloading and printing comments has been a request on the Box Community site from multiple people who have also listed some of their…

Group Notifications
Add the ability to notify groups; i.e. @mention in comments, assigned task notifications in the activity pane and in Relay
81 votesWe are definitely tracking this feature, but it is not yet on the roadmap for delivery.
How would envision managing your groups?
Would you want to sync with an existing directory, or create the Groups directly in Box?

Ability to restrict Box Sign to internal use only
[Request contents]
Please add the ability to restrict recipients to Box Sign "options".
I would like the scope of restrictions to be selectable only by internal users and invited users, similar to shared links.[Background]
If you restrict Box Sign to internal use only, security incidents may occur without the above features.(Japanese)
[リクエスト内容]
Box Signの"オプション"に受信者を制限する機能を追加してほしい。
制限する範囲は、共有リンクと同様に社内ユーザーと招待されたユーザのみが選択できるようにしてほしい。[背景]
Box Signを社内利用のみに制限している場合、上記の機能がない場合セキュリティインシデントが発生する可能性があるため。69 votes -
Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger
Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger.
Triggering a Relay on a specific file when it has been updated directly or updated with an upload, maintaining file history.
The current workaround is to create a "New upload" Trigger, then the file needs to be Deleted and create/uploaded from new, thus requiring 2 steps and losing file history.

Box Sign should be approved by the Certificate Authority in Japan
Currently, Japanese law requires that minutes of board of directors meetings be sealed by an electronic signature service that has been approved by a certification authority.
However, Box Sign has not yet been approved by the Certification Authority.
In order to make further use of Box Sign, we'd like Box, Inc. to get approval for Box Sign from the Certification Authority.
現在、日本の法律では、取締役会議事録は認証局の承認を受けた電子署名サービスによって捺印することが義務付けられています。
しかし、Box Signはまだ認証局から承認されていません。
Box Signをさらに活用するためには、Box社が認証局からBox Signの認可を受けることが望まれます。64 votes -
The option to cascade Relay triggers to subfolders for all triggers
Box needs to add the cascade option to all Relay triggers to catch activity in underlying subfolders. The legacy automations feature that Box had did this by default. Now, the alternative is having to create several relay workflows that is too cumbersome to manage and doesn't scale.

Notifications from Box Relay aren't very useful without linking back to the file or folder
Relay is a great tool - but the Notifications aren't very useful. There is no way to link to the actual file or folder that is involved, so the user gets a very nebulous notification that is basically meaningless. Instead of being helpful, it could actually cause confusion for the user, if there are multiple activities happening at the same time.
Please update this functionality! Thanks!

Ability to specify the destination folder for periodic output of Box reports
We would like to be able to output Box reports periodically by specifying a folder.
Currently, it is possible to output reports on a regular basis, but when providing them to users, it is necessary to manually move the output results, which takes a lot of man-hours.
We would like to be able to fully automate this process, so we are making this request.■日本語

Box Sign: Knowledge Based Authentication (KBA)
Box Sign: Knowledge Based Authentication (KBA) via integration with LexisNexis for Box Sign.
IRS requires knowledge based authentication to verify the identity of the person who is signing (confirm social security #, etc. )
DocuSign doesn't offer this unless you request it and pay extra. Box Sign could require that customers pay extra for this too.
Mortgage, banking, finance companies require this.
5% of all of my customer's signatures require using KBA.

Enable True/False Metadata Mapping for Checkboxes and Radio Buttons in Box Forms
Description:
Today in Box Forms, checkbox and radio button inputs are not natively mapped to Boolean metadata fields (true/false or yes/no), which limits the ability to trigger workflows or create metadata-driven views based on user responses.Feature Request:
Allow checkboxes and radio buttons in Box Forms to map directly to Boolean metadata fields:If a checkbox is checked, metadata should reflect “true”; if unchecked, “false.”
For yes/no radio button questions, allow mapping directly to true/false metadata fields.
Impact & Value:
Streamlines workflow automation with Box Relay (e.g., trigger based on form input).
Enables metadata-driven views (e.g., show only records where…

Approval Task With Box Relay Enhancements
When allocating approval tasks in Box Relay, users are able to uncheck the "Invite the person in charge as a viewer" function.
In addition, if "Invite users as viewers" is enabled, and the members in charge have been granted permission as members of a group, which prevent them from being invited to the file as viewers.52 votesWe’re evaluating this as a feature now.
