  1. Get a Link in Microsoft Teams integration

    Playing with Microsoft Teams, I discovered that for files stored in the generic/default section of Teams, you can "Get a link" to copy the hyperlink for the file to your clipboard. When I add the integrated Box storage feature, though, files there do not offer the "Get a link" option. It really needs it, otherwise convenience will steer people to NOT use Box for storage.

  2. About the scope of expiration notice to co-owners.

    Currently the expiration of the invited user to a folder is notified to the owner and co-owner of the folder,
    however, any co-owner cannot receive the expiration of the invitee of its child folder while owner receives all the expiration notification.

    We would like to request to cascade the scope of co-owner's privilege to its child folders so that the co-owner of the parent folder can receive all the expiration notification of the descendant folders.

  3. Ability to configure date format in the email notifications

    Email notification date – The request is for the date format of this to be set by Admins for an ‘Organisation’ . The current email default is using dd/mm/yyyy which does not help North American users. To get a more universal date it would be helpful to for admins to be able to set another format like dd/mmm/yyyy

  4. folder notification

    Notifications about folder activity for emails who are not collaborators in the folder.

    Use case: Our end users are not allowed to access cloud data sites on our corporate network per compliance regulations thus them not being added as a collaborators. I sync the folders down to our file servers and share them creating a two-way data sync between our end users and their clients who use the website. I’ve just been asked to supply alerts when a client performs activities in shared folders but can’t do so directly because I can’t add specific email addresses to the alerts.

  5. We would like to have the ability to receive a notification after uploading a file from a file request link to confirm that the file was upl

    After uploading from the file request link, "File successfully submitted" is displayed, but it is not possible to check which folder the file was uploaded to and when, so it is not possible to determine if the file was actually uploaded correctly.
    Since uploading from a file request link can be done by non-accounted users, it is not practical to check the destination folder, but we would like to see the feature implemented, since receiving a notification would provide evidence that the file was uploaded correctly, as well as the date and time of the upload.

    ファイルリクエストリンクからのアップロード後は「ファイルを正常に送信しました」と表示されますが、
    どのフォルダにいつアップロードされたのか確認することができず、実際に正しくアップロードされているのか判断することができません。
    ファイルリクエストリンクからのアップロードはアカウントを持たないユーザーでも可能であるため、
    アップロード先のフォルダを確認することは現実的ではありませんが、通知を受け取ることで正しくアップロードされたという証跡と日時が確認できるため機能の実現を希望します。

  6. Ability to set folder notifications for external and internal collaborators within a folder.

    Companies with many external collaborators have to walk each user through changing their folder notification settings so the external collaborator will be notified whenever a document is uploaded to a folder. This is extremely manual for us and their external collaborators. It would be easier if folder owners could set folder notifications for everyone within the folder so external collaborators receive the sames notifications as internal collaborators.

  7. Back up the data in the box to other storage in case of box incidents.

    We want to back up Box to other cloud storage or servers in case we cannot access the contents due to Box incidents.
    We would like to have the feature to migrate Box data to other clouds.

    Recently, there have been many Box incidents, and we need to take action to ensure that we can carry out our business in any situation.

    Boxの障害が発生しても業務を遂行するために、Boxのバックアップを他クラウドやサーバーに持ちたい。そのためBoxから他クラウドなどに同期できる機能が必要である。

    最近Boxの障害の影響を受けることが多く、万が一Boxがにアクセスできなくても、業務を遂行できるような対策を考えなければならない。

  8. Clarify language and process regarding account activation

    When users want to reactivate account, they think it sounds as though it is self-service when it actually involves submitting tickets and they can't do it by themselves.

  9. Lack of clear notification of whether BoxDrive is syncing or not

    There should be a clear icon in the Finder AND in the BoxDrive top menu icon clearly showing whether syncing is on or off. Support told em the only way to know if files are correctly syncing is to look at the files in the Finder and if there are NO ICONS then it's working. The lack of something is not a reasonable way to identify is something is working correctly. PLEASE add a symbol that shows the synching status that is easy to confirm!!

  10. Notification if content is screenshot

    We have secure content that we send to vendors as "non downloadable" but we also need to know if they take screenshots of that content. We would like functionality that notifies us if a user takes a screenshot of our content.

  11. Notification when outbound collaboration is blocked by collaboration whitelist

    When outbound collaboration is restricted by Box Governance's collaboration whitelist, folder invitations addressed to our managed users from users outside the whitelist will be blocked.
    If the source of the invitation is a legitimate business partner, the company user must ask the administrator to add the domain to the whitelist, but the company user receiving the invitation has no way of knowing that it has been blocked.
    Thus, the application does not occur, and many collaboration opportunities are lost without being noticed.
    (The invitee will receive an error message, but only a handful of Box professionals will understand the message…

  12. Push Notifications for @Mentions

    Box push notifications on iOS are very limited currently and only send the user a push notification when...

    1. There's a comment added to a file and they're the most recent uploader
    2. They've been added to a folder

    The most logical other push notification to add would be for @mentions which, in theory, would increase overall adoption of comments as well.

  13. Ability to disable/modify admins receiving ALL collaboration invite notifications

    Currently every time someone in our organization shares a file or folder I get an email notification, it gets obnoxious at at times. It seems silly I can't control these notifications. The following need to be able to be turned off,

    • Collaboration invitations
    • Collaboration invitation acceptances

    In general more control over notifications is ideal, I can't imagine why this would be so difficult. Thank you.

    We are definitely tracking this feature, but it is not yet on the roadmap for delivery.

    How would envision managing your groups?

    Would you want to sync with an existing directory, or create the Groups directly in Box?

  16. Drive: Option to disable update notification

    We have a very restrictive policy and require only specific version of software to run on end-users computer to minimize risk with incompatibility.

    Box Drive does not push out update silently but does give out update notification to end users so they have the choice of update.

  17. Event Stream notification for Admin Console changes

    We need to monitor security of our environment and want to be able to identify and flag, via the Event Stream, when any Admin Console setting is changed.

    This is available via the UI in User Reports, but is not in the Event Stream.

    This is especially important for enterprises who rely on SIEM tools like Splunk and QRadar to alert to unauthorized actions.

  18. File Request's new email notification format is a step backwards - it doesn't tell us the email address of the uploader (but it used to)

    A few months ago, the format for the email notification would show the email address of an uploader that used the "file request" feature.

    The updated format has LESS information, now it simply says that "someone" uploaded a file. Go back to the prior version which showed the email address of the uploader.

  19. Box Capture enhancements

    Videos recorded using Box Capture on iPad have been randomly saving with incorrect orientation for some time now. Videos will be recorded with iPad in landscape mode, but files will come out in portrait mode. I have had to manually reorient many many videos over the past few months.

    Clearing the local storage only works temporarily to fix the video rotation issue, and it eventually creeps back in. It is also odd to me that clearing the local video storage would have any effect on this. Is there some other data that is in the local storage that is gumming…
