  1. The new design of box admin is missing the ability to invite users to your enterprise that already have a box account.

    When you are adding an existing user to your box enterprise account, the new design does not have the option to invite the user to join. You only get an error that. The user already exists.

  2. We would like the ability to search by "items I have deleted" in the trash.

    When searching for items in the Box recycle bin, the "Search only in recycle bin" function will search for items in the entire recycle bin.
    However, if there are a large number of items in the recycle bin, it will take time to search for the needed item.
    Please add the ability to search by "items I deleted".

    Boxのごみ箱に入ったアイテムを検索する際、「ごみ箱内のみを検索」機能を利用すると、ごみ箱内全体のアイテムが検索されます。
    しかし、ごみ箱にアイテムが大量にある場合、必要なアイテムを検索するのに時間がかかってしまいます。
    「自分が削除した項目」から検索する機能を追加してください。

  3. Schedule settings for all reports

    Currently, the following reports cannot be scheduled.
    ・Platform Activity
    ・Outbound Activity
    ・Security Logs
    ・Legal Holds
    ・Retention

    There are several types of reports that only the administrator can output, Since it takes time to output each report, automatic acquisition on a regular basis will improve operational efficiency.

    <すべてのレポートでスケジュール設定をできるようにする>
    現在以下のレポートではスケジュール設定することができません。
    ・Platform Activity
    ・外部のコラボレーション
    ・セキュリティログ
    ・リーガルホールド
    ・リテンション

    管理者しか出力できないレポートの種類が複数あり、各レポートの出力にも時間がかかるため、
    定期的に自動取得が行えれば業務効率化につながります。

  5. Box Drive specification improvement request

    Box Drive is downloading a large amount of event streams, which can overwhelm company's network bandwidth. Due to the network bandwidth pressure, the business other than Box has been affected, so please take measures.
    Here are the details:

    Box Drive is likely retrieving folder and file events that the logged-in user has access to, but is aware that there may be a large number of event downloads in the following cases, for example:.
    ・A specific user performs bulk operations on a folder in which many users are collaborating. (All events are downloaded to Box Drives of all collaboration users)

  6. File Request uploads to Box include uploader's user information

    The following would be ideal:
    When uploaded via File Request and logged into Box, the uploaded file(s) will contain the uploader's user information such as name, email address, and more (more detailed information such as tracking code values) in metadata.

    This idea is based on a use case of a college where a large number of students submit documents via File Request, and college administrators want to make sure which document was submitted by who, referring to the document's metadata.

  7. Bulk edit folder settings in the admin console

    Grant the ability to bulk edit folder settings in the Admin Console. We recently made changes to our Enterprise folder settings. Updating these settings was not completely retroactive and did not propagate for all subfolders, resulting in either having to update folders individually or using the API. We would like the ability to have a feature for bulk editing folder settings natively in the Admin Console that can be retroactive and will propagate to subfolders.

  8. Set values for "external_app_user_id" of Managed Users

    We are developing a tool to extract user data from AD, Azure and other IDMs and provision them to Box via API.
    We want to use the user IDs on the IDM as a user external key for Box so that we can track the associated Box account when the email address changes on the IDM side.
    However, the current attribute "externalappuser_id" of Box users has the following limitations

    Only the App User can be set as the value.

    Only some privileged users, such as service accounts for JWT-authenticated applications, can access this item.

    For improved convenience, please…

  9. Drop downs to accomodate for State, Country and Currency

    Retail use case where we would like to be able to apply metadata to a store such as state and country. Ideally have a drop down list of the 50 states to easily choose from and have a consistent format instead of having using type it in.
    Finance and Retail use case to be able to apply metadata for a dollar amount and ideally have a currently drop down that include USD $

  10. Save local copy of Mobile upload when using Capture feature

    Some customers in legal and insurance industries utilize the Capture feature in the Box mobile app to upload sensitive content for legal proceedings and insurance claims (i.e. depositions and statements). If an upload fails when leveraging the Capture feature, that file is not saved locally, and it is not possible to re-attempt the upload. This has major ramifications on the customer's business and legal processes, and should be addressed by auto-saving a copy of the Capture file locally, especially in cases where the upload attempt fails

  11. Error notification about Relay Workflow

    Currently there is no way to know whether the relay workflow has failed or not.
    So when there is an error in a workflow, I would like to have admins and or the workflow owners to receive a notification to inform about the error.

    Hello all,


    Thanks for requesting this feature. The product team reviewed this request and added to our backlog for consideration. We look to revisit this next year and once we start working on this, we will update the status. 


    Thanks,

  13. Ability to set delegator on Box Sign prior to sending out document to be signed.

    The idea is similar to adobe sign where we can assign a delegator to fields which basically means it forces that person to delegate the document for signature. I know box sign already has delegation which is called 're-assign request' but this is not ideal as some of our teams have noticed where people cut corners and sign on behalf of that person.

    This way it can be enforced from the get go.

  14. Offer option to "auto focus = false" in Box Embed to prevent page scrolling

    When embedding Box documents via iFrame, the Preview SDK has Autofocus set to True. This means that Chrome web browser will "jump" to the HTML section that has the iframe and not stay at the top of the page.

    I'm requesting the option to set autoFocus: false to prevent this. Note this has been an issue for many years, based on postings here: https://github.com/box/box-content-preview/issues/960

  15. Show all uncompleted tasks on iPad

    Currently you can only check up to 20 tasks in the Box iPad app.
    However, when you are high up in the company, there are many tasks sent to you throughout the day and cannot see all the uncompleted tasks inside iPad.

    It would be great if you can increase the numbers of tasks shown or show all the uncompleted tasks on iPad too.

  17. Invitation of collaborators by list

    Currently, Box has a small screen for inviting collaborators, and invitations must be made on a per-privilege basis. So there are some mistakes of invitations by users.
    This could be a compliance issue with business partners. So we need new interface that allow users to check the invitation list and register in a batch input.

  18. I would like to be notified when an error occurs and an item cannot be uploaded, or to be able to check the error log in the report.

     エラーが発生してアイテムのアップロードができなかった際に通知、またはレポートでエラーログを確認できるようにしてほしい

    内容
     When an error occurs when uploading a large number of items, it is difficult to list the items that could not be uploaded from the UI.
     For this reason, we would like the following functions to be added.
      ・If an error is detected when uploading to a folder that contains file requests, notify the user who uploaded the file or the owner of the file via e-mail or on the web.
      ・A function to output the log of failed uploads to the user activity report.

    <Japanese>
     大量のアイテムをアップロードしたときにエラーが発生し他場合、UI上だとアップロードができなかった対象アイテムをリストアップすることが難しい。
     そのため、以下機能を追加してほしい。
      ・ファイルリクエストを含むフォルダへのアップロード時に失敗したことを検知したらアップーロードしたユーザや所有者にメールもしくはWEB上で通知する機能
      ・ユーザアクティビティレポートにアップロードに失敗したログを出力する機能

  19. Improvement of the interval at which the version history of BoxNotes is automatically saved

    As the support article below states, "While you're working in Box Notes, we automatically save your changes as a new version roughly every 5 minutes or after 5 minutes of inactivity. "
    However, if you continue to operate, it will only update the "current version" and will not automatically save a new version every 5 minutes.
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043692834-Box-Notes%E3%81%AE%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A7%E3%83%B3%E5%B1%A5%E6%AD%B4%E3%81%AE%E8%BF%BD%E8%B7%A1
    We would like to improve the function so that the version will be updated every 5 minutes even if the operation is being performed continuously.
    In addition, since there is information that would be troublesome if it disappears due to an operation error,…

  20. Greater granularity for co-admin privilages

    A co-admin should be able to manage the whitelisted domains for external sharing which is currently only possible by the main admin. Similarly for Shield alerts, only an admin can currently unlock a file. Whilst an admin should be the only one able to change the set up, decide on the alert settings etc a co-admin should be able to manage existing alerts. The lack of granularity of what a co-admin can do makes it difficult to manage as the only alternative is to give co-admins full access to config which isn't a viable option.
