  1. Auto update table information across multiple Box notes

    As you update data in a table in one Box note, if it is the same table, have it AUTO UPDATE in another note where it is replicated.

  2. UX - Not clear when a note name is taken

    When a user insert a note name and the name is already taken, there is a small notification at the end of the line.
    It is not visible enough, and when focusing out the name reverts to the previous option.

    It took me 2-3 times to understand what the issue is because the notice wasn't clear enough.

    Possible solutions :
    1. add a suffix to the name
    2. make a red bold notice on the name so the user can't miss it

  3. Preview display function based on og:image information when pasting URL text

    I'd like to see a feature where you can paste the URL text and embed a preview based on og:image information (metadata).
    For example, a feature that has already been implemented in Miro.

    【In Japanese】
    <タイトル>
    URLテキストを貼り付ける際のog:image情報に基づくプレビュー表示機能
    <本文>
    URLテキストを貼り付けると、og:image情報(メタデータ)に基づいたプレビューを埋め込むことができる機能を提供してほしいと思います。
    例えば、Miro にすでに実装されている機能などです。

  4. SLACK: Simplify Boxnote Creation Within Slack Channels

    Our technical teams frequently collaborate in Slack channels to discuss ideas, resolve issues, or create plans. In many of these cases, having the ability to quickly create a Boxnote directly within Slack would be incredibly valuable.

    Currently, the process requires several steps: opening Box, navigating to the appropriate folder, creating a Boxnote, generating a shared link, and then pasting it back into Slack. This complexity often leads our teams to opt for alternative, faster tools.

    If we could streamline this process by enabling Boxnote creation directly from within a Slack channel—perhaps as easily as clicking a bookmark—it would significantly boost…

  5. Shortcuts for Box Notes

    Shortcuts don't work in Box Notes when Caps Lock is on.
    For your reference, in Excel, it works even if Caps Lock is on.
    We hope shortcuts works fine regardless of Caps Lock status.

  6. Box Notes Should Open By Default, Not Require Additional Click to Open Button

    When leaving a comment on a Box Note, it sends an email to the recipient. When they click the link, the Box Note should automatically fully open.

    Right now, you have to click the link, then click an open button a second time to fully access the document. This is both inconvenient and confusing to users who do not use Box Notes regularly.

  7. Box Notes Comments Panel Expanded By Default in Settings

    There should be a way to toggle the comments panel expanded or closed by default, within settings, so it is not multiple clicks to expand it each time a Box Note is opened.

  8. Ability to edit captured data in BoxNote.

    In the captured data pasted to Note
    You can create a box for inserting text or highlighting it, or you can apply a mosaic to an arbitrary area.
    I would like to be able to edit pasted images immediately.
    Although it is possible to edit images by right-clicking with the current specifications (Windows 10),
    You can only edit handwritten notes (pen, marker), arrows, and degrees.
    After that, you can save the image by either copying it to the clipboard or saving it with a name.
    I am not able to edit images smoothly and I feel it is bothersome.

  10. Change the background color of Box Notes

    I would like to be able to change the background color of Box Notes.
    By changing the background color of Box Notes, I would like to instantly convey that the content is special and different from the usual content.

  11. Ability to share note with "view and comment" mode

    As of today (2024-07-01), BoxNotes allow to share a link with either "edit" capabilities (you can edit everything) or "read-only" capabilities (you can only view). I'd be lovely to have a step in-between, that allows the person with the link to leave comments on the content but without the ability to modify it.
    (I know it might be difficult to do, as it's probably tied to Box sharing capabilities)

    When entering comments in boxNote, we would like it to be clear which part the comment pertains to. (Imagine adding comments with the relevant section highlighted, similar to using a marker.)

  13. Allow BoxNotes to add hyperlinks to images as well as text

    On a normal website, you can click on a banner image to skip to the link, but BoxNotes does not allow you to do this, which is inconvenient.
    I want to add hyperlinks to images as well as text.

    通常のウェブサイトではバナー画像をクリックしてリンク先に飛ぶこともできるが、BoxNotesではそれができない。

  15. Add the ability to fix scrollbars in tables

    We make great use of the table feature of Box Notes and often create tables with a huge number of columns.
    A while ago the UI was changed and scrollbars became available.
    However, the longer the table is, the longer it takes to get to the scrollbar, because the scrollbar does not appear until I get to the bottom row.
    I have to go further just to find the scroll bars, and I find this operation laborious.
    Therefore, we would like the scrollbar to be fixed so that it always appears at the bottom of the table currently displayed on…

  16. Hyperlinks in Box Notes that open the page when clicked

    Hyperlinked text should open the linked URL when clicked, once. Just like HTML hyperlinks have worked since 1993. If necessary to keep the current behavior, (click, open popup, click URL), you could add a "1-click" button to the popup controls to toggle the one-click behavior. A rollover-exposed control could allow return to the two-click behavior or just provide the URL/Edit/Delete options you have now.

  17. Functionality to embed and directly edit Excel in Box Note.

    When a shared link is included in Box Note, it is possible to embed the preview of Box's interface. However, I request the ability to directly edit an Excel file when a shared link for Excel is included.

    While Box Note does have a feature to insert tables, it inevitably falls short in functionality compared to Excel. Enabling direct online editing would allow for the maximum utilization of Box Note's collaborative editing capabilities.

    [Japanese]
    BoxNoteにExcelを埋め込み表示して直接編集できる機能

    BoxNoteに共有リンクを記載するとBoxのプレビュー画面の埋め込みができますが、Excelの共有リンクを記載したら直接Online編集が出来るように要望します。
    BoxNoteに表を挿入する機能はあるもののExcelと比較するとどうしても機能的に見劣りします。
    直接Online編集が出来るとBoxNoteの共同編集機能を最大限活用が出来るようになります。

  18. PII and PI fields for text within Boxnotes for granular access control

    Customer-facing workers would like to be able to create, store and manage information about their customers in order to better serve them. This often involves storing personally-identifiable information (PII) within Boxnotes. The feature request is the ability to mark or tag specific pieces of text (such as a person's name for example) as PII and control who has access to view such PII. This is because many knowledge workers are part of large distributed teams, and many of the team members need access to the customer-related information within Boxnotes, but not the PII. This would be a way to make…

  19. Box AI - Is it possible to add the results as a BoxNotes table?

    At our company, we commonly use BoxNotes for meeting minutes and similar documents. When instructed to summarize the contents of the notes into a table format, it does so correctly. However, when choosing to add to the notes, the information is entered as text. Will it be possible to add information as a table in BoxNotes?
