  1. Direct from link directly to desktop application

    To open a file from a link that is currently a shared link or a link in the URL of a Box storage location, the following steps must be taken
    1.Click on the link
    2.Login to Box
    3.Display the preview
    4.Click "Open
    5.Launch the desktop application

    Office files are often edited in the desktop application,
    and launching Box ⇒ showing preview ⇒ launching the desktop application is a laborious process with many steps to open the file.

    Please add a new feature so that after clicking on the share link and logging in, the screen allows the user to select…

  2. Open edit screens of multiple files on Box at once /Box上の複数ファイルの編集画面を一度に開く

    When creating documents, we often have to open multiple documents on Box, and we have to open each one and operate them one by one.
    This method of operation requires a lot of time just to open the editing screen, so we would like to have a function that allows us to preview and open the editing screen for all files at once after selecting them.
    [和訳]
    Box上の資料を複数開いて資料作成をする事が多く、一つ一つ開いて操作をしています。
    この操作の方法だと編集画面まで開くだけでも工数がかかるため、ファイル選択後に一括でファイルのプレビューや編集画面を開ける機能を要望します。

  3. Allow non-Admin users to configure sidebar defaults and button order on file-view page

    My workplace's Box system just switched to always showing Box AI as the default view in the sidebar when I view a file. I'd like it to go back to showing the recent activity or file details sidebar by default on the file view page, or be able to set the default myself without being an Enterprise Admin. It would also be nice to be able to rearrange the vertical buttons as a user-side configuration option.

  4. Introduce a "Collaboration-Only" Account to Prevent Shadow IT/コラボレーション専用アカウントの導入

    The Problem:
    When we invite an external partner from a domain that does not use Box, they are forced to sign up for a free, individual account to accept the collaboration. This creates a significant data governance risk and "Shadow IT" for our partners' organizations. Their IT departments have no visibility or control over these new accounts, and their employees might start using the personal storage for business data, bypassing company policy.

    Proposed Solution:
    We propose the creation of a new type of account, specifically for external collaboration. This "Collaboration-Only" or "Storage-less" account would have the following characteristics:

  6. Add expiration date to collaboration list CSV of folder insight

    The CSV file output by the Folder Insights feature does not have an expiration column, but the collaboration report in the Admin console does.
    I want the expiration date to be output to the CSV file of the folder insight function.
    This is necessary for the department folder administrator to accurately manage collaborators.

    ----- in Japanease -----
    フォルダインサイト機能で出力するCSVファイルには有効期限の列がありませんが、管理コンソールのコラボレーションレポートには有効期限の列があります。
    フォルダインサイト機能のCSVファイルにも有効期限を出力してください。
    これは部門のフォルダ管理者がコラボレータを正確に管理するために必要です。

  7. Unable to load Box content in Firefox web browser

    I use Firefox as my default web browser and it has been working fine until today, no content loads and any shared content simply displays 'Oops! We can't seem to find the page you're looking for.'

    Loading the link into Google Chrome web browser works as expected.

    Issues on Firefox '140.0.4 (aarch64)'

  8. We would like to have the ability to receive a notification after uploading a file from a file request link to confirm that the file was upl

    After uploading from the file request link, "File successfully submitted" is displayed, but it is not possible to check which folder the file was uploaded to and when, so it is not possible to determine if the file was actually uploaded correctly.
    Since uploading from a file request link can be done by non-accounted users, it is not practical to check the destination folder, but we would like to see the feature implemented, since receiving a notification would provide evidence that the file was uploaded correctly, as well as the date and time of the upload.

    ファイルリクエストリンクからのアップロード後は「ファイルを正常に送信しました」と表示されますが、
    どのフォルダにいつアップロードされたのか確認することができず、実際に正しくアップロードされているのか判断することができません。
    ファイルリクエストリンクからのアップロードはアカウントを持たないユーザーでも可能であるため、
    アップロード先のフォルダを確認することは現実的ではありませんが、通知を受け取ることで正しくアップロードされたという証跡と日時が確認できるため機能の実現を希望します。

  9. Management Settings for Video Watermark

    Management Settings for Video Watermark

    Minimum and Default Value Control Functionality:The customization options for watermarks allow users too much freedom. If users prioritize visibility and make the watermark too small or position it in a corner, there is a risk that the effectiveness of deterring copying may diminish.

    Administrator Controls:It would be excellent if there were controls to ensure that users cannot set values below a minimum level defined by administrators. Specifically, users should not be able to go below the default values set by administrators.

    Examples of Control Parameters:

    Minimum transparency level of the watermark

    Number of watermarks

    Position…

  10. Suppression Function for Drag-and-Drop Movement Operations

    Suppression Function for Drag-and-Drop Movement Operations - Pulse Request

    There are incidents where editor users accidentally move folders to other folders at the same level due to operational mistakes.

    Most of these mistakes are not intentional; they often occur when using a pen tool on smart devices, trackpads on laptops, or trackballs while handling images.

    When this happens, even though it is within the same tree hierarchy, the operation enters a so-called locked state until completion, meaning that undo operations cannot be accepted. This can have significant impacts on business operations.

    Therefore, if there were a management option that only…

  11. Fix the display issues

    Most times when I hover the cursor over a file I get icons that show up allowing me to easily Add to Collection, Create and Copy Shared Link, Share, and a select box at the end of these options. However, sometimes when I log in and hover over a file I do not get any of these options. When these don't appear the only way I can send someone a link seems to be to open the file in Box. I don't get an option to create a shared link even when I right click a file and look at…

  12. Ability to act on search results

    Using filters, users are able to achieve granular search results for the files they need. Currently, the only action available on search results is to open 1 document at a time. Users need a way to select all search results and add to a collection, tag, move to folder, export, and other related actions.

  13. Show Folder Size in GB/MB at root and tree level, inside

    To see, at a glance inside the Box.com web interface inspector, the file size allocated to each parent folder and should I click in, each sibling folder. Right now, the interface only gives the number of files, which is deeply unhelpful when trying to assess what folders are taking up how much storage...

  14. Change the warning message when external users change their password.

    The new feature "Enable detection of confirmed leaked passwords" has been applied.

    If an invited external user does not meet the password criteria, they will be required to change their password.

    When entering a new password, if the password does not meet the requirements, a message will appear stating "Password was exposed in a data breach"

    This message is confusing as it misleadingly suggests that a data breach has occurred on the tenant's side.

    Therefore, please change it to something appropriate, such as "The password you entered is weak, please make it more complex."

    新機能の「漏えいが確認されたパスワードの検出を有効にする」を適用してます。 招待された外部ユーザーがパスワード条件を満たしていない場合、パスワードを変更する必要があります。
    新しいパスワードを入力したとき、条件を満たしていないパスワードを入れると、「データ侵害で漏えいが確認されたパスワードです」とメッセージが表示されます。
    このメッセージでは、テナント側でデータ侵害が発生したという誤解を生むような表現となっており、混乱します。
    よって、「入力したパスワードは脆弱なので、より複雑なものにしてください」といった適した内容に修正してください。

  15. Bulk change link permissions for subfolders and files

    As it stands if you create a folder with shared link permissions to be invited people only and then you add files and subfolders, if you change the permissions of the parent folder to change to anyone in your company, they don't propagate, nor do files added after inherit the parent folders permissions which were changed previously. It would be good if when making a change that you are prompted to allow waterfall permissions to subfolders and files or to not. I know this can be done with CLI, but there should be an easier way for end users to…

    Thank you for the insights. At the movement each shared link is viewed as a individual unit. We will continue to gather interest in such a capability to perform bulk actions.

  16. Create Shortcuts to Other Folders within Box

    We would love to be able to create shortcuts to other related files within files in Box on the web. For an example, in windows file explorer, you can create a shortcut from someone's individual file and someone's business file.

  17. Password protected folders - systems allows setting password not meeting log-in criteria

    When I set shared link with customer, I generate password for him and send it to him so he can access the folder. System allows me to create password which is not accepted by the system when the customer wants to sign in! That is very embarrasing.
    For example today I created shared folder, made a password (long enough, but containg only one number) and sent it to the customer to cooperate. System allowed me to set the password, but when the customer wanted to access the folder, he had to use the password but it was not accepted because…

  18. Need to have ADDITIONAL sort options in Trash / Bin

    In NEW CONTENT MANAGER, when viewing any Trash, it is important to be able to SORT columns, not only by UPDATED column, but ALSO by ORIGINAL FOLDER LOCATION, so that content may selectively restored

    OR Make the Filter for FOLDER so that users may enter a text string (with " ") to identify and display results for the BINNED folder name

    ALSO display the binned folder and file IDs so that these can be selected in folder filter

  19. Function to display a list of files that failed to upload when uploading large amounts of content

    In the course of work, there are many opportunities to upload folders or large numbers of files at once.
    Some files may fail to upload, but the Box Web screen does not allow you to extract information about only the files that failed to upload.
    This means that it can be time-consuming to identify files that have failed to upload among a large number of uploaded files.
    Please implement a function to display a list of contents that have failed to upload.
    If it is difficult to display the list on the screen, please implement a function to export the…

  20. Editting text files online without using Box Edit

    I want to edit text files(.txt files) online without using Box Edit.
    Because when I edit a text file with Box Edit, I have to download it each time, which takes time.
    I think it would be very convenient if I could easily edit text files on Box, just like Box Notes.
