  1. 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…

  2. Box Hubs - Restrict external collaboration for tenant in admin console

    I understand that BoxHubs is planning to release a function to restrict external collaboration on a per-Hub basis, but I would like to have a function that can be configured in the Admin Console for tenant. Because setting for each hub would be very time-consuming and would result in setting omissions.

    We are looking to gather more feedback on this request. There are several long term implications we would like to discuss to ensure we are able to provide the best experience. Please reach out to hubs-research@box.com if youd like to participate.

  3. Box Hubs Inherited Permissions

  4. Ability to post photos, videos, and hyperlinks in Box Hubs.

    While posting the photo and video files is nice, it would be faster to be able to easily look at photos without clicking into their previews. Also, hyperlinks and adding Box shortcut files are a must—we can't currently offer employees a list of helpful external resources in Hubs. (We could provide a PDF/Word doc with all the resource links, but, again, this requires extra steps for the end user.)

  5. We want users to be able to output a "folder and file" report for each folder.

    (Japanese follows English)
    Currently, only administrators can output the "Folders and Files" report.
    We would like users with editor permissions for the target folder to be able to output a "Folder and File" report for each folder.
    At that time, We would like to be able to select whether the report will be output to that folder or the output destination.

    現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートは管理者しか出力できません。
    対象のフォルダに対し編集者権限を持つユーザーが、フォルダ単位で「フォルダとファイル」レポートを
    出力できるようにしてほしいです。
    その際レポートの出力先はそのフォルダ内か、出力先を選択できると望ましいです。

  6. Hubs - Add ability to arrange sections horizontally

    Will there eventually be an opportunity to arrange sections horizontally in the future? Thinking more like a canvas for a dashboard.

  7. Release a new Sign template that does not pin documents to prevent file duplication

    Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
    However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
    This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
    If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
    Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common to…

  9. Ability to disable access code step for Ready Sign Link

    Ready Sign Links requires an access code today. There should be a way to disable the MFA request so users don't need to validate via access code.

  10. When a document is accessed in Box Sign on a phone, the document thumbnail that is displayed is zoomed out fully, which makes it difficult

    Would love to see improved mobile display/interface when accessing documents to sign on a phone. When a document is viewed for signing on a mobile device the document that displays is zoomed out fully. On a phone, the zoom is challenging to navigate and it's hard to select the fields to complete for signing.

  11. Get Rid of Waterfall Permissions - Allow Subfolder Security To Be Set Differently

    It is absolutely ridiculous that a company as large as Box is using waterfall permissions for all enterprise accounts.

    In a business environment, it is absolutely necessary to be able to set specific permissions on subfolders within a large data folder that all users have access to. This is a simple feature included with every other cloud file provider we've ever used.

    Needs to be included ASAP.

    Hi, I am a Product Manager for Box's File System, I am looking for real world examples from your business needs where the waterfall permissions doesnt work. The more elaborate the example is the better it will be. Would you be willing to share?

  12. Shield Malware Threat Detection False Positives on Excel Documents with Macros

    Multiplan (160k ARR) turned on Malware Deep Scan and was getting 3-5 false positives per day because users across multiple departments often work on Excel Documents with Macros. Due to their process, users need to upload new versions of these Excel documents daily (they cannot use Version Control to handle this). So the IT team is being pinged every time a new version is added. This has been so overwhelming that the IT team has turned off Malware Detection. They will enable again if Macros are not accidentally flagged as potentially malicious.

  14. Import/Store external own contacts to use regularly as recipients

    This is where users have their own contact list with email addresses and want to use these regularly in unique documents rather than templates. The request is to import and maintain these so they can be easily looked up when adding the signers to send a document to.

  16. 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。

  17. 3rd Party Integrations and Pull Data from Other Sources

    We would love to see Box Canvas have robust integration capabilities (e.g. MS Suite, Zoom, Miro, Mural, etc.) It would be great if we had the ability to pull data in from other sources (for example, MS Excel) to Box Canvas.

  18. Save Sorting Preferences

    When using Box in-browser, create a setting to change the default sorting preference. For example, so you can make the default sorting for all folders Name, Ascending. This is not currently an option and means every time you open a folder you need to manually resort it, as the default sorting is always set to Updated, Ascending.

    Thank you for the feedback. Do you have a file and folder naming convention you follow that will make the sort by name to be more useful than sort by updated date?

  19. Large Folder Operation email notification when the operation is finished

    I would like to have the user and admin to receive an email notification once the large folder operation (LFO) is finished so that each counterpart knows when the operation is finished.

  20. MS Office @ mentions to sync and notify users

    @ mention comments, tags and notifications section in Microsoft Office apps, should also integrate with Box interface and notifications. Great achievement with co-authoring, however, it is highly inconvenient to have to comment on Box preview, and then open the file to work/edit. Ideally users need to be able to @ mention and tag other colleagues/users within the MS application, which should notify other users to take action on the required document. Otherwise it creates duplication of work/inefficiencies in the process.
