  1. Download Collaboration

    Uploading a file from a web browser
    I would like to have the ability to automatically download a file uploaded from a web browser on a different computer.
    This will greatly help in improving the efficiency of indirect collaboration with other software.

    1. upload a file (csv) from a browser (chrome) to Box on computer A. 2.
    2. PC "B" (Win11) has a software program installed on it, and the csv file is imported by the software.
    3. The PC in environment B is always connected to the Internet while it is running, so we would like the uploaded file to be automatically…

  2. Display in Sign interface reason why for declined signature requests

    When a document is declined, the reason why it was declined is only available in one e-mail.
    It should be available on the document as well as in the web interface. I could put a comment on the document (why I wanted to reject it), and in the Reject field, but only the reason in the reject field was kept and only available in the e-mail that was received. After that, in Box SIgn, you see that the document was declined, but you d'ont know why. That is a huge limitation.

  3. Improve Print to PDF conversion to avoid extra pages

    When sending single page .tif files to print as .pdfs, Box web app conversion scaling creates extra pages due to imperfect margins. Manually adjusting the scaling down to 70% brings the image size down to fit on a single page.

    We would like to see either improved automated scaling or a way to set a default scale in the Admin Console to avoid overburdening end users having to set the scale by hand every time they need to print.

  4. Box Device Trust Domain Requirement Azure AD tenant ID

    Really simple suggestion for documentation and the Device Trust config page. In December 2023, for companies with no local domain but using Azure AD , I needed to fill in the "Tenant ID" into the Device Trust policy domain requirement field in order to successfully connect. I grabbed mine from my Microsoft Entra overview page, but there are other ways to get it like running "dsregcmd /status" on a joined laptop.

  5. When outputting a report from the Admin Console, the user interface for searching folders cannot uniquely identify folders with the same fol

    When narrowing down the user activity report to activities under a specific folder, a search is performed by folder name, but if there are many identical folder names, it is not possible to uniquely specify the folder.
    I would like to be able to display the folder path from the root or specify by folder ID.

    管理コンソールでレポートを出力する際にフォルダを検索するユーザーインターフェースで同一フォルダ名が存在すると一意に特定が出来ない

    ユーザーアクティビティレポートで特定のフォルダ配下のアクティビティに絞るときにフォルダ名で検索を実施するが同一フォルダ名が多くあると、どれが出力したいフォルダなのかが判別が出来ないのでルートからのフォルダパスを表示したりフォルダIDでの指定が出来るようにして欲しい。

  6. Rollback all files uploaded even if one fails to upload

    Under the current design, when uploading multiple files, the successful files are stored in Box, even if one of the uploads fails. As a result, subsequent processing, e.g. adding metadata, may also not take place. This is inconvenient for the user under the usecase of using File Request+Metadata. The user has to look for files that were not uploaded and has to check the metadata for files that were uploaded. And if the uploader is anonymous, it's impossible. This Pulse requests that if one or more uploads fail, the uploads of other files performed in that File Request are also…

  7. Box Shuttle should allow Box as one of the source systems to migrate from

    Currently, Box Shuttle standard tooling only supports migrations from OneDrive for Business, Dropbox for Business, and Google Drive as a part of Google Workspace. Box Shuttle should support Box as one of the source systems, so that Shuttle can be utilized for Box to Box migrations.

    For example, consider this use case: a researcher is leaving institution A, and their research lives in institution A's Box instance. Their new institution, institution B, uses Box, and they need to get 10 years worth of research data from institution A to institution B's box instance, without having to download and reupload, or…

  8. Upload, copy and paste .DES files.

    I can't paste in my Box Drive folder .des files that come from a software I use. I can upload them manually to the cloud in the web app, but those files won't sync either. This never happened with other cloud service software and I can't work without those files and the program won't run.
    Please accept .des files so I can use Box for my work.

  9. Create Annotations/Markups with Viewer Role with Watermarking Enabled

    When Watermarking is NOT enabled on files/folders, users with the Viewer permission are able to markup/annotate without downloading the file. As soon as Watermarking is turned on, that functionality goes away. The only option is to increase their permissions, which gives them rights to upload, which I do not want. Why does this functionality go away when Watermarking is enabled? Is this able to be fixed?

  10. MFA self reset up

    Currently, when a user get locked out from their own account when the MFA is turned on, they need to contact Box support team to get it usable again.
    It would be great if users can self reset from the login screen without submitting a support ticket.

  11. Force user email validation for external collaborators

    In the case that Person P from Company B is laid off and p@b.com mailbox is turned off , the Box.com External Account is still active with whatever security it had. Person P can keep accessing Box.com and CNMLLP content without CNMLLP or Company B knowing about it. Also, external bad actors can guess passwords and gain access, and there's no visibility. If we can force an external collaborator to click a link in a email, for instance in a browser-initiated Password Reset that sends an email right away, then it proves that Person P still has access to P@C.com

  12. When inviting people, I would like to search not only by name but also by photo, department name, etc. Is there a way to do this?

    When making an invitation, please include not only your name and account.
    Linked to microsoft account etc., the account's photo and
    By making it possible to search by department, etc., it is more accurate.
    I think you will be able to receive an invitation.

  13. Ability to see full name of Groups and Folders in the Admin Console

    When adding or reviewing groups in Box new Admin console, we are unable to see the full name of the group and it does it does not appear in alphabetical order. Same is true for the folders collaboration section. The names are cut off and you cannot scroll or hover to see the full name. Even shrinking the screen does not help. This is very problematic for security reasons as you may grant access to the wrong group or the wrong folder or create duplicates if you miss seeing an existing group or folder. And it wastes alot of time.…

  14. Box Sign should be approved by the Certificate Authority in Japan

    Currently, Japanese law requires that minutes of board of directors meetings be sealed by an electronic signature service that has been approved by a certification authority.
    However, Box Sign has not yet been approved by the Certification Authority.
    In order to make further use of Box Sign, we'd like Box, Inc. to get approval for Box Sign from the Certification Authority.
    現在、日本の法律では、取締役会議事録は認証局の承認を受けた電子署名サービスによって捺印することが義務付けられています。
    しかし、Box Signはまだ認証局から承認されていません。
    Box Signをさらに活用するためには、Box社が認証局からBox Signの認可を受けることが望まれます。

  15. stop adding bullets to tabs when copy/pasting.

    Simple, when copy/pasting, don't add bullets to tabs that don't already have them. Keep all formatting the same.

  16. Bandwith warning

    As there are quite dire consequences for overstepping the monthly Bandwith Limit, it would be good to have get some kind of Warning before it happens.
    Maybe an E-Mail Notifikation saying something like "you've already used 80% of your Bandwith this month."

    Or at least have a graph in the Admin Console showing how much bandwith was used that month.

  17. Update the user detail report so that the administrator can see status of the automatic acceptance of invitations

    Invitation auto-acceptance settings can be changed for each user, but may be "pending" when an admin invites a managed user to a folder.
    Please add an item so that administrators can check the setting status in the user details report whether the managed user has automatic invitation approval disabled or enabled.

    <ユーザーの詳細レポートに招待の自動承諾設定をどう設定しているかを確認できるよう項目を追加してほしい>
    招待の自動承認の設定は各ユーザーで変更できますが、管理者が管理対象ユーザーをフォルダに招待する際に「保留中」になることがあります。
    管理対象ユーザーが招待の自動承認を無効にしているのか、有効にしているのか、管理者がユーザーの詳細レポートで設定状況が確認できるよう項目を追加していただきたいです。

  18. Box for Salesforce - Setting to choose auto-collab permission

    We want the collaborating to be more restrictive, i.e., we don't want users to be able to delete content. Right now we have to customize that interaction.

    One way is to add a setting that, rather than auto collaborating a user from SF, the SF Admin can choose the permission level to auto collab Users (for example as a viewer or viewer uploader)

  20. Provide a sync client for Linux - like Dropbox, Nextcloud etc has.

    When logging in to the shared area I've been invited to, I get a pop-up telling me to complete my set up by downloading the sync-client. But, there is no sync client for Linux to be found, at the download page.
