User activity report
In the activity report, exporting Collaboration Approval gives the following output:
Invite external users to the "folder" of your company tenant.
Only the folders invited to "Processed Items" are displayed.Invite external users to the "file" of your company tenant
The folder path is displayed in "Processing item", but the file name and file ID of the invitation file are not displayed.
This specification confuses the user and is not suitable for following the path to the invite folder.
Please unify "Folder path", "Folder/file name" and "Folder/file ID" as output results.10 votes -
Select Upload Limit, Pause Uploads
Hello, I have multiple ideas for this relatively limited featured app:
We should be able to select how many items we wish to upload at a time, instead of this default 10 or so at a time. If I've got a busy schedule, I sometimes want to achieve a few uploads at time and then pause (next point).
We should definitely be able to Pause Uploads, Dropbox has it, OneDrive has it, why not Box. For my work, I need my bandwidth quite often, so currently the only way of "pausing" is closing the app completely, and not knowing whether…

Please add a customizable setting for the [administrator email address] section.
If a user tries to use an application that is not allowed by the tenant, the following error screen will appear.
Disabled by Administrator
This application cannot be used because it is not allowed by your Box administrator.
If you have questions, please contact your administrator at [administrator email address].
Typically, he/she is expected to contact the email address provided on this screen.
However, due to company operations, we do not accept inquiries at the email address listed on this screen.
This creates confusion because he/she sends an email and does not receive a response from the administrator.Therefore, we…

Box Drive icon size
Would like for the Box Drive icons to be bigger again. On the latest version of Box Drive 2.16, they are smaller and that makes it harder for them to determine whether or not files are locked.

Creating accounts containing double-byte characters should not be allowed, which violates RFC5322
Creating accounts containing double-byte characters should not be allowed, which violates RFC5322
(Reason)
Currently, it is possible to create a new account containing double-byte characters in an email address, but it cannot be activated because it cannot receive mail. However, as a result, accounts containing double-byte characters exist like zombies.In some external cloud services (Salesforce), this causes errors when retrieving the user list, but the root cause of this problem in the first place is that Box can create new accounts containing double-byte characters, which violates RFP5322 "3.4.1. Addr-Spec Specification," so I would like to see this specification changed.

Enable Microsoft 365 Copilot in Excel Online for Excel files stored in Box
[English]
We would like Microsoft 365 Copilot in Excel to be available when an Excel file stored in Box is opened and edited with Excel Online from the Box web application.
Currently, users can open Excel files stored in Box using Excel Online and edit them collaboratively. However, the native Copilot functionality in Excel is not available or enabled for these files because the files are stored in Box rather than in OneDrive or SharePoint.
This results in an inconsistent user experience:
- Excel files stored in OneDrive or SharePoint can use the native Copilot features in Excel.
- The same Excel…

Netsuite v2 - admin option to turn off choice of existing vs new folder in widget
We would prefer that folders are always created via the integration ('default') rather than always giving the option to select an existing folder as well. This could be a configuration admins can turn on/off.

Ability to authenticate the Box for EMM app from Safari to Microsoft Edge
When logging in with the mobile app "Box for EMM", if SSO is linked with AzureAD, the built-in Safari will start and the sign-in screen will be displayed.
I would like to see you implement the ability to switch this to Microsoft Edge using an App Configuration Policy in Intune.The Slack for EMM app has this function, so I will share the URL for your reference.

Please consider combining all of chains requesting 2-factor authentication via the likes of Google Authenticator and/or Yubikey
There are several chains below which are basically requesting the same thing. If you combined all of those into one chain, I'm pretty sure the combined total votes would be the highest in the Security topic. Providing 2-factor authentication via something like Google Authenticator and/or options like Yubikey is absolutely necessary. If we are not given this option, our auditor will require that we stop using Box within about 2 months. I'm doing everything I can to keep Box. It works so well for my team. I don't want to lose it. PLEASE make this a priority.

Please automatically close the tab of the browser we used to log in after completing the login process.
The login method from Box Drive has been changed to using a web browser.
Currently, the behavior is that the tab of the web browser used for login authentication remains after login is completed.
The administrator is troubled by the many inquiries from end users asking if closing this tab will cause any problems.Reference:

Enhance API for group membership search
Current implementation of user group membership search is very inefficient.
both
api.box.com/2.0/groups/GROUPID/memberships
and
api.box.com/2.0/users/USERID/membershipsRight now we have to search for membershipId for given groupId and userId .
Our customers have thousands of groups and users.Ideally we should fetch membership info like

Section 508 Compliance for Box Sign
There are customers who require Sign to have 508 compliance for Sign for accessibility purposes. I would also throw in WCAG 2.0/2.1 compliance as part of this ask as well.

Remove folder from desktop
I would like to be able to not have the Box folder sitting on my desktop and only sit in the Finder's sidebar, along with GSuite, or Creative Cloud for example.
The reason for this is: 1 it adds clutter to the desktop. 2 on Macs, having folders and files, especially big files there, actually will slow down the performance of the computer. Not many people realize this. The items on the desktop are constantly being pinged by the computer using resources.

Adjust to Microsoft B2B Direct Connect
We would like to operate Box as a single tenant for a tenant that has a Micoroft B2B direct connection.
As Microsoft seems to be focusing on multi-tenant organization, I think it would be good to apply it as Box as well.2 votes -

Box Sign - Checkbox review NOT required to complete Box Sign request.
Box Sign - Checkbox not required.
Today, I have some documents with 40+ checkboxes where in theory none of them have to be checked in order to sign the document. Today, even if I mark the checkbox as "not required," I still have to manually review every single checkbox or else the Box Sign user interface will not let me complete the Box Sign request.
There should be three options:
(1) Checkbox required to complete Box Sign request.
(2) Checkbox review required to complete Box Sign request.
(3) Checkbox review NOT required to complete Box Sign request.Please remove reviewing…
6 votesReviewing optional checkboxes is NOT required to complete a Sign request now.
We will continue exploring and improving checkboxes behavior in the future, for example: saving the checkbox size when preparing a document for senders AND additional setting to require reviewing of optional checkboxes.
Thank you for the feedback.
Create a new feature requests if there is something we can do to improve your experience.
