I would like you to implement a function that allows you to obtain information from login information when using "Box Relay".
Currently, you can use metadata when renaming files using Box Relay.
Similarly, I would like to be able to use the signed-in user's My Profile information as the value of "Available Variables".
(email address, name, company name, etc.)
Being able to use the information of the signed-in user allows you to obtain reliable information, which I think will improve convenience in various ways.Thank you for your consideration.

「Box Relay」使用時に、ログイン情報から情報を取得できる機能を実装して欲しい。
＜本文＞
現在「Box Relay」を使用して、ファイル名のリネームを行う際に、メタデータを使用する事ができます。
同じ様に、「利用可能な変数」の値として、サインインしているユーザーのマイプロフィール情報を使用できる様にして頂きたいです。
（メールアドレス、氏名、会社名、等々…）
サインインしているユーザーの情報を使える事は、確実な情報を取得する事ができ、様々な点で利便性が上がると思います。
ご検討の程よろしくお願い申し上げます。6 votes -

Folders and Files Report - Include Subfolders
When you run the Folders and Files Report, and you filter down to run the report on a specific folder, you are unable to select the subfolders within that folder. This really limits the functionality of this report.
I request that you add the "Include Subfolders" toggle to the Folders and Files report (just as it exists in the User Activity Report)

heatmap
Would love a heatmap report/feature that shows how often particular folders (or files) are accessed (over a specific timeframe). This way you could quickly identify folders/data you may not need to keep any longer. This would allow you to identify folders storing stale or useless data that could be cluttering up everyone's view. You could tie this into policies that could auto-delete/archive folders that have not been accessed within a certain time frame.

New Shared Link Setting for OTP to Specific Email Addresses
Proposing a new Shared Link setting or type that allows users to send a shared link to a specific email address which requires a OTP password, similar to the authentication used when an individual is sent a Sign Request via Box Sign.
This would allow for a simpler, more secure user experience when sharing one-off links than password-protecting a public link.

Request that multiple file requests not be created when creating a File Request using the API
When creating file requests using the API, multiple file requests can be created independently for one folder.
In order to avoid this phenomenon, I would like an API to be prepared to retrieve the created file request ID from the folder.
Or please provide some other workaround.1 vote -
Allow admins to promote a secondary email to a primary
Admins and co-admins need to be provided with a way, both in the admin console and via API, to promote a secondary email address to a primary email address while the "Prevent users from changing their primary email address" control is enabled. For security the swap should still be approved by the user. The current workaround to this problem is inefficient, as it requires the change to be rolled back and the user to make the adjustment themselves. When a co-admin rolls the change back, logs in as the user, and selects "Make Primary" next to a secondary email address, they're asked for a user's password before the change is even submitted to the user for approval. Also, rolling back the change for any amount of time opens up the possibility that other users can change their primary email address when we don't want them to.

Get Rid of Waterfall Permissions - Allow Subfolder Security To Be Set Differently
It is absolutely ridiculous that a company as large as Box is using waterfall permissions for all enterprise accounts.
In a business environment, it is absolutely necessary to be able to set specific permissions on subfolders within a large data folder that all users have access to. This is a simple feature included with every other cloud file provider we've ever used.
Needs to be included ASAP.

Enable File Upload Notifications Programmatically

use @mention in the Office suites of software (Words, Excel, PowerPoint)
Currently, we are able to do commenting of the document in Box by using the @mention. But we are not able to do the same when we are editing document in the native Ms Office software eg Words, Excel & PowerPoint. The @mention does not work.
Would like to have the same feature when we are working in the native document?

Workflow to delete all files in a folder on a schedule
We have setup request folders we send to external users to upload files. Currently we need to manually review the contents of each folder and remove any uploaded files before sharing.
We would like a modification to the delete workflow that would allow us to delete the contents of a folder. That way we can setup a scheduled workflow to remove all files in a folder at the start of each week. This way we can reuse the request links and know the contents will be deleted after a week.2 votes -
Shield Classifications Following Content in Drive
In Box Drive, the classifications do not follow the content. For ITAR customers, I can copy a file from ITAR folders (with a shield policy) to another folder for non-ITAR content and share it without restrictions.
This works in the web app, but not in Drive.

Enhancing Box with ERP System Integration
Hi everyone,
I’ve been using Box for a while now and appreciate its collaborative features and secure storage solutions. However, I believe there’s potential for Box to evolve further by integrating more deeply with ERP systems.
As businesses continue to adopt digital solutions, ERP systems play a critical role in managing and automating core business processes like finance, supply chain, and human resources. By enhancing Box's integration capabilities with ERP platforms, such as SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics, users could:
Streamline Document Management: Automatically sync and organize documents related to invoices, contracts, and reports directly from the ERP system to Box. This would simplify compliance and audit processes by keeping everything in one place.
Improve Collaboration Across Departments: ERP systems are often used by various departments within an organization. Integrating Box would allow seamless sharing and collaboration on critical documents, ensuring everyone has access to the latest versions.
Boost Efficiency with Automation: Implementing automated workflows between Box and ERP systems could save time on repetitive tasks, like approving purchase orders or updating financial records, leading to more efficient operations.
Enhance Security and Compliance: ERP systems handle sensitive information, and integrating with Box’s secure platform could add an extra layer of protection for sensitive business data. Plus, Box’s compliance certifications would help ensure that documents meet industry regulations.
I believe these enhancements would make Box an even more valuable tool for businesses looking to optimize their operations and maintain a competitive edge. I'd love to hear others' thoughts on this idea and whether you've encountered similar needs in your organizations.
ERP system you can take a look: https://www.impactfirst.co/id/erp/software-erp

Option to not allow signer to re-assign document to someone else.
Currently a signer can reassign a BoxSign document to any new email address. Would like an option where we can change that so the signer can NOT reassign a document to someone else.
