Request improvement so that users who do not have output permission do not display the download button for Content Insight activities
For users who cannot create a folder in the root folder in a closed environment, pressing the "Download" button on the Content Insights activity will result in the error message "Sorry, the report could not be generated. Please try again." .
If the download button is displayed, users who do not have the output authority will mistakenly think that they can download the report, and error messages will appear and the number of inquiries to the administrator will increase.
Therefore, we would like to see improvements.＜出力権限のないユーザーにコンテンツインサイトのアクティビティのダウンロードボタンを表示させないよう改善を希望＞
クローズド環境でルートフォルダにフォルダを作成できないユーザーの場合、コンテンツインサイトのアクティビティの「ダウンロード」ボタンを押すと、「レポートを生成できませんでした。後でもう一度やり直してください。」というエラーが表示されます。
ダウンロードボタンが存在することで、出力権限がないユーザーもダウンロードできると勘違いしてしまい、エラーが表示され管理者への問い合わせが増えるため、出力権限がないユーザーにはコンテンツインサイトのアクティビティのダウンロードボタンを表示させないように改善を希望します。26 votes -
Adding custom shapes to Canvas
I would like to be able to add shapes to Canvas, for example the AWS shape library to mirror the behaviour of another white boarding tool we're currently using.
This would allow us to collaborate on complex architecture diagrams using very specific shapes/icons.
Some ways this could be introduced:
-shapes available to all Canvas users
- or the ability to add templates pre-populated with custom shapes
-or the ability to upload custom shapes for the entire instance7 votes -
I would like to see a lock feature implemented so that tenants with the "Box for Microsoft Office" feature enabled can occupy and edit files
Tenants with the "Box for Microsoft Office" feature enabled will not be able to update locked files.
As an alternative, the following procedure may be applicable, but has the following disadvantages■procedure
①Lock the target file
②Download the file and update it locally
③Upload updated files
④Unlock■demerit
Many steps and cumbersome
If another user downloads > edits > uploads a file that is locked, the file will be updated.Therefore, I would like to see a lock function implemented so that files can be occupied and edited like Box tools.

Relay stacking
I would like to be able to apply relays for folders that don't exist yet. If I create a relay for a folder to be created, I'd like to be able to stack that for the sub folders.
For example each year I create quarterly folders and then I can automatically copy files into those folders. Right now I have to wait until I create the folders to build the relay to copy files.

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

BOX Sign - Creating templates without attaching document
We use BOX sign for approval of signatures in all types of documents. It would be a nice feature to be able to create a template for each approver without having to upload a document when creating the template. The only why I can accomplish this right now is to upload a blank document in the template. Then when I use the template I have to replace the blank document with whatever document that we need approval.

Issue with File Viewing Recorded as Editing ファイル閲覧が編集として記録される問題
I would like to request an improvement regarding the issue where simply viewing a file is recorded as editing. Viewing and editing are different activities and should be recorded and displayed separately.
ファイルを閲覧しただけでも編集者として記録される現象について、改善を希望します。閲覧と編集は異なるアクティビティで、別々に記録・表示されるべきだと考えます。

Request to improve behavior where updaters are visible only when operating from mobile
Hi Box Teams,
I would like to improve the following behavior.
Problem behavior:
If non-collaborators access the People with the link from Box's web app, they won't see who updated the file, but if they access it from Box's mobile app, they'll see who updated the file.This problem occurs when a folder's co-owner or owner updates a file. If the user has the permission of the editor or lower, the user who updated the file is displayed as "Anonymous".
Expected Behavior:
Since we have set the folder so that only the owner or co-owner can see the information, we would like to not show the information of the person who updated the file, even if the access is from an open link, even if the access is from Box web app or mobile app.Conditions for creating a problem
・The following folder settings are enabled:[folder setting]>[Privacy]>[Collaborators]>[Hide callaborators and their activity from non-owners]
・A file with a shared link was last modified by the owner or co-owner of the folder.
・The scope of shared link disclosure is set in People with the link for files under the folder.
・Non-collaborators access the shared link and view it in the Box mobile app.
Specific steps to reproduce the problem：
(1)From a mobile device, a user who is not a collaborator accesses a shared link whose disclosure range is People with the link.- At this time, if the Box application is not installed, the default web browser changes to the Box mobile site, where file information can be checked, but the name of the person who updated the file is not displayed.
(2) You will be redirected to the Box app. If you are not logged in, you will be asked to log in, so you have to log in to the Box app.
(3) Displays the contents of the shared link destination.
(4) Display "File information" from "..."
(5) "Update time" and "Updater name" are displayed in the "Change date" item.
- This problem occurs when a folder's co-owner or owner updates a file. If the permission is less than or equal to the editor, "Anonymous" is displayed.
I'm sorry to trouble you, but I appreciate your consideration.
Best

Allow groups to be specified as 'notified to' in Box Shield Threat Detection Rules
Only user accounts can be specified for the 'Notification Destination' of the Threat Detection rules in Box Shield.
Since maintenance is required when the person in charge changes, it should be possible to specify a group.■In Japanese：

Closed folder structure
"My Sign Requests", "My Canvases" and "My Signed Documents" folders are created as private folders technically by Box, without any admin intervention. When using a closed folder structure, these folders can still be used by users to build their own folder structures, as they become the owner of this folder. This counteracts the idea of a closed folder system and represents a massive security gap. Users can then build folder structures and content in our box instance without any control by the admin and share them with external users.
These technically generated folders must therefore be restricted accordingly, or admins must have the option to impose usage restrictions for these private folders technically generated by Box. It must not be possible for these folders to be used and configured by users without admin control.
As a collection point for Box Sign processes or Canvases, this is fine, but to allow additional functionality that would otherwise not be possible in Box, represents a risk that can otherwise be controlled with a closed folder structure.

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.

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, etc., we would like the function to be enhanced so that the user can also save the version history manually.※The following text has been added to the previous submission.

継続して操作を行っている場合でも5分間隔でバージョンが上がるように機能の改善を希望いたします。

Box for Outlook Add-in fixed to save emails as .msg
When trying to save an email using the "Save to Box" Add-in, the only option is .eml. This was an old format for outlook express. Once an email is saved in this format, it cannot be opened in Outlook client. There needs to be an option for .msg. Using the File > Save As option allows you to change the extention, but that is extra steps. Outlook web will allow you to open the saved email, but you cannot save it as a .msg after the fact.

Provide option to omit the Signup and Login buttons from shared links (downloladable)
Please provide the option to omit the Signup and Login buttons for shared links (downloadable).
The presence of the Signup and Login buttons reduces the value of our Box.com account since the only way to circumvent the Box.com marketing fluff is to copy file from box to our CMS rather than just referencing our Box.com files. The existence of the Signup button both on the preview and pop-up that displays after clicking download results in calls to our support center from visitors to our website. The embed widget unfortunately doesn't improve the issue. Alternatively, if we could embed the Box direct link, problem solved, but that is not possible due to CORS issues.
