  1. UI alert on invite message when character limit is exceeded

    It is VERY annoying to write a nice detailed note to the person you are inviting and then have it just disappear bc the character limit has been exceeded. Box should either not allow you to exceed the character limit, or at least have it refuse to send the invite but not completely delete everything you have just written!!!

  2. Using Box Relay on Mobile

    Box Relay's [manually initiated] workflow does not currently support mobile.
    We would like Box Relay to be able to use mobile even more effectively.

    (In Japanese)

  3. Template for publishing to specific groups in Box Relay

    The only templates in Relay are company templates and My Templates.
    Our company has templates that we want to publish for each group, so we would like you to provide the ability to publish templates to groups.
    (In Japanese)
    Relayのテンプレートは、会社のテンプレートとマイテンプレートしかありません。
    我々の企業ではグループごとに公開したいテンプレートが存在するため、テンプレートのグループ公開機能を提供してほしい。

  4. Workflow approval tasks: More than one must approve and less than all may approve a workflow approval task.

    Workflow approval tasks: More than one must approve and less than all may approve a workflow approval task.

    Today, if I want to invite 3 people to approve a task, but I only need 2/3 to approve it, then this is not an option. Similarly, if I want to invite 10 people to approve a task, but I only need 6/10 to approve it, then this is not an option.

    I only have the option for one person to approve it or for everybody to approve it.

  5. Allow Relay workflow steps to be reordered

    Allow edits to re-order Relay steps after workflow is live.

    For example, if there is a multi-step (5 person) approval needed on a document, and the team/individual who is currently set up to approve a document first now needs to be moved down to 2nd approver, it would be helpful to be able to reorder the steps without having to rebuild the workflow.

    Thanks!

  6. Notifications sent on a specific date through Relay

    We have files that need to be moved/copied on a specific date. It would be helpful if it were possible to use relay or comment to send a notification that a file needs to be moved or copied when the date is reached.

  7. File request - Block upload of domains not on enterprise allowlisted domains

    For File Request where Enterprise requires user to login prior to submission, would like an additional security check for Enterprises that only allow for external collaboration from allowed domains as listed in the Enterprise console. If the domain is on the list then allow for file request upload, if domain is not on the allowlisted domains, block upload.

  8. Generate Shared Links as a Relay Outcome

    Would like the ability to automate generating shared links on files within Box Relay as an outcome. One use case for this would be to create a process for generating external shared links. Many security-conscience customers don't want everyone to have the ability to shared content externally without some sort of approval or oversight. If we added generating and sharing shared links as an outcome in Relay we could build approval flows that would allow users to get approval to share a file externally even if they don't have the access do so.

  9. Make Workflows Shareable Among Users (Box Relay and Box Relay Lite)

    In Box Relay, we can check the progress of workflows in the [Tracking] function.
    Currently, only the owner of the workflow, and Admins who are granted to access to workflows can see this [Tracking].

    However, the progress of workflows within the enterprise should be visible to other users as well.
    (e.g. Users who have tasks assigned in the workflow, or Co-Owners of the folder where the workflow is triggered.)

    It would be useful if the owners could share their workflows to other users.

  10. Be able to specify a document or a shared link in “Send Notification” outcome

    It would be convenient if the “Send Notification” outcome had an option to specify a document or a shared link in the notification body.

    Right now it is only possible to input plain text.

  11. Box Relay support for "move folders to different owners"

    We are aware that Box has a recommended maximum number of items owned per owner (1 million items), and it is recommended to divide it into multiple owners if the number exceeds the limit.

    Based on the above, our company, which owns more than 100 items, operates by dividing the data into multiple owners.

    According to Box's recommendations, it's easy to assume that when you use Box, an action occurs that moves the owner to a different folder.
    We strongly hope that this behavior will be supported even when using BoxRelay, because it would significantly reduce the convenience of BoxRelay…

  12. Allow reporting for workflow activity from a specified date rather then having to run the report on every single document

    Allow reporting for workflow activity from a specified date rather then having to run the report on every single document. This would be extremely useful for tracking of how long it takes individual's to complete a task.

  13. 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…

  15. <Ability to set date and time variables for files/folders in Box Relay.>

    When multiple folders/files with the same name are created (newly created/copied) on the same day using Box Relay's folder/file actions, the current specification makes it impossible to determine which item is the latest.
    Please insert a date/time variable such as "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss" in the item name so that we can know when the folder/file was created.

    <BoxRelayのファイル/フォルダに日付と時刻の変数を設定する機能>
    Box Relayのフォルダアクション/ファイルアクションで同じ日に複数の同一名称のフォルダ/ファイルが生成(新規作成/コピー)された場合、現状の仕様ではどのアイテムが最新のものか判断がつかない。
    いつ生成されたフォルダ/ファイルかわかるように、アイテム名称に「yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss」のような日時変数を挿入してほしい。

  16. Create Custom File Request links

    Currently, today, you can create a file request link, which generates a 32 character alphaumeric string. I'd like the ability to create a custom URL (like I can with shared links) to make it easier to promote my file request links to my stakeholders and make them more rememberable.

    These custom file request links could have mandated security attached to them, either enforcing these to be only available to links set to "Require Uploaders to log in to Box" or (not available today in the product), enforce adding a password to access the custom file request link (see additional idea…

  18. "apply workflow to all subfolders" should be an option for every trigger

    When using the "manual start" trigger of a workflow you can check a box that will apply the workflow to all subfolders. This would be useful for all triggers.
    Currently I need to create 10+ duplicate work flows that are exactly the same, but applied to separate folders.
    I am unable to use the "manual start" trigger because the workflow is most efficiently start by an external collaborator - and Box does not enable external collaborators to start manual workflows

  19. File request link folder-level control

    Enable file requests at a folder level to restrict internal-only folders vs. not. There are existing folder-level settings that can restrict external collaboration and what type of shared link can be crated, but the same ones don't exist for File Request links. It would be great to have the same feature parity between shared links and file request links when wanting to restrict access.

  20. Allow variables for folder name creation

    I need to create unique folder names as part of Folder Action outcome in Relay. This could be a simple as appending a date stamp or date/time stamp to the end of the predefined folder name, or use the file name that triggered the workflow as the folder name. Some options for creating discrete files names would be very helpful.
