  1. Toggle for automatically opening documents in a new tab

    Either allowing Right Click on suggested search bar results or creating a toggle where clicking a document/picture/file/etc opens it in a new tab instead of on the current tab. I am SO tired of hitting the back arrow/duplicating pages when I need to open more than one document at a time

  2. Restrict Use of AI by External Collaborators

    Currently an external collaborator can run a query on collaborated content if both enterprises have AI enabled (plus a few other restrictions). Create a path, potentially via Shield, to disable the ability to query externally.

  3. More robust in-line editing for Box App views

    Currently inline editing is limited to single select metadata values. It would be great if this could be expanded to other data types, especially multiselect and date.

  4. Ability to invite external unmanaged users into Box Apps

    We are requesting a new feature that allows external (unmanaged) users to be invited into Box Apps.

    Use Case Example:
    A law firm wants to share categorized legal documents with their clients through Box. Currently, Box Apps enable internal users to view and manage files with rich metadata, making it easy to organize and automate workflows. However, clients cannot access these metadata views directly. Customers should have the ability to view this structure and even work with it to launch automations and processes, as well as search their documents more easily.

  6. Request for UI improvement of Box AI for Hubs

    Content: Currently, in Box AI for Hubs responses, sharing reference materials is displayed as a number, which requires a click each time and makes the display difficult to understand.
        We would like to request improvements to make it easier to access reference materials, such as by changing the subject line instead of the number.

    件名:Box AI for HubsのUI改善要望
    内容:現在Box AI for Hubsの回答で参考資料の共有は番号で表示される為、都度クリックが必要となり、表示がわかりにくいです。
       番号ではなく件名等へ変更する等、参考資料をわかりやすくアクセスできるよう機能改善要望をします。

  7. We want to be able to see the origin folder of a file request link.

    By implementing features such as a button that allows users to navigate to the originating folder from the file request link, We would like to make it clear which folder the file request link was issued from.

    (In Japanese)
    ファイルリクエストリンクの発行元フォルダが分かるようにしたい

    ファイルリクエストリンクから発行元フォルダに移動できるボタンなどを設置するなどして、ファイルリクエストリンクを見た際に、どのフォルダで発行されたものかが分かるようにしたいです。

    When rolling out new features or raising awareness, it's useful to be able to prominently notify end users on Box.

  9. We would like to see Box Hubs have a separate shared link permission setting

    Currently, Hub shared links can be allowed from “Enterprise Setting” > “Content & Sharing”, but with the current settings, if Hub shared links are disabled, general folder and file shared links will also be restricted, which is very inconvenient.
    Therefore, please consider making the shared link setting of the Hub independent, and allow shared links to be allowed for each individual Hub.

    【日本語】
    現在Hubの共有リンクは、「管理コンソール」>「コンテンツと共有」から許可できますが、現在の設定値ではHubの共有リンクを禁止すると、通常のフォルダとファイルの共有リンクにも制限がかかってしまい非常に不便です。
    そのためHubの共有リンク設定を独立させ、Hub個別で共有リンクの許可を行えるよう検討をお願いします。

    This suggestion is under consideration by the Product Team for future development, however, it is not on our roadmap. Please share additional feedback and use cases to help us understand the importance of this release. 

  10. Box for Office and co-authoring

    Co-authoring and Box for Office each create "places" in Office applications, which is confusing to the end user. Per Box Support, files opened via the Box For Office integration cannot be co-authored.

    The Box for Office integration includes Office ribbon icons, more intuitive file open/save workflows, and has been part of the Box integration environment for years. Consider either improving the UI of the "Place" created by the co-authoring integration or allowing co-authoring on content opened via the Box for Office integration.

  12. Enable Third-Party Generated Preview Content

    Please provide a mechanism that allows third-party applications to generate the PDF, JPEG, and text content that is normally produced by the Representation API.

    Currently, Box AI can only be applied to a limited set of file extensions supported by Box services, preventing it from reaching its full potential. If Box AI were able to consume preview images or structured text generated and uploaded by third parties, agents would be able to interpret industry-standard files that Box does not natively support, such as AutoCAD files. This would greatly enhance the strength and versatility of the platform.

    Please open a pathway…

  15. Set dynamic/arbitrary values for comments in approval tasks/general tasks/notifications

    I would like to be able to set dynamic values for comments in approval tasks/general tasks/notifications and arbitrarily set them at the time of assignment.
    Example 1: In a workflow that is manually started and assigned an approval task, an arbitrary comment can be set at startup.
    Example 2: In a workflow that notifies of new uploads, the file name can be dynamically set in the notification content.

    【日本語】
    承認タスク/一般タスク/通知のコメントに動的な値や割り当て時に任意に設定できるようにしたい。
    例1:手動で起動し、承認タスクを割り当てるワークフローにて、起動時に任意のコメントを設定できる
    例2:新規アップロードを通知するワークフローにて、通知内容にファイル名を動的に設定できる

  16. Dynamic result changes based on file/folder name

    I want to dynamically determine the file/folder name and change the result accordingly.
    Example: If the name of a newly uploaded file in folder X contains the string “AAA”, move it to folder “AAA”.

    【日本語】
    ファイル/フォルダ名を動的に判断して、それに応じて結果を変更したい。
    例)フォルダXに新規アップロードされたファイル名に文字列「AAA」が含まれているとき、フォルダ「AAA」に移動する

  20. Create API's for Box Forms to automate field completion.

    Create API's for Box Forms so that customers can set them up to have certain fields auto populated. For example, if a user/student is logged into a system and needs to fill out a Form, they want to auto-populate the information that is available via SSO for example. So when user/student opened the form the Name, Email, Departement, etc fields could be auto -populated.
