Restrict Document Download Before Signing Turn in Box Sign
We would like to request an improvement to document access behavior in Box Sign when Recipients Order is enabled.
Currently, recipients who are not yet in their designated signing turn can still download the document from the Box Sign Inbox dialog. This allows recipients to access the document before the signing workflow reaches their step. In addition, even when password protection is enabled, recipients are still able to download the document in the same way, which reduces the effectiveness of this control.
In sequential signing workflows, some organizations expect document access to be restricted until a recipient’s signing step becomes active in order to prevent premature access to sensitive information.
Request
When Recipients Order is enabled, recipients should not be able to download or access the document until their signing step becomes active. The download option should be disabled or hidden for recipients whose signing turn has not yet begun, and the same restriction should apply even when password protection is enabled.
This improvement would help prevent unintended early access to documents and strengthen workflow control in sequential signing processes.

Request for a Box AI Add-on for Desktop Applications
Dear Box Support Team,
I would like to submit a suggestion regarding the enhancement of Box AI functionality.
I believe it would be highly beneficial to offer a Box AI add-on that can be used directly from desktop applications. For example, it would be extremely helpful if users could request Box AI—rather than Copilot—to analyze an Excel sheet that is currently open in the desktop version of Excel.In our company, many users primarily work with Box Drive, and as a result, adoption of Box AI—which is currently limited to the web interface—has been limited.
If Box AI could be accessed seamlessly from desktop applications as well, I am confident that awareness and utilization of its capabilities would significantly increase.Thank you for considering this request.
Best regards,

Adding additional functionality to Forms, including tables.
Adding more functionality to Forms to bring it up to par with other Forms solutions. Adding things like the ability to include tables, dividers and text that doesn't require an input, such as instructions. Also, APIs would be super useful.

Approve own task
Users have the ability to assign themselves an approval task and approve. This has been flagged up by our audit team as a control issue. Is there any way this can be prevented?

Needs label for Hubs
Currently, classification labels in Box can be applied to files and folders, but not directly to Box Hubs.
For organizations that rely on Box Shield to enforce data governance, the inability to classify Hubs themselves presents a risk.
We request the ability to apply classification labels directly to Box Hubs, so that access policies and visibility controls can be enforced consistently across all content surfaces.6 votes -
Make the "Create New Collection" (+) button permanently visible
I would like to request a UI change for My Collections. Currently, the "+" button to create a new collection only appears when hovering over the "Collections" section. I request that this button be made permanently visible.
Reasoning:
Based on our user behavior analysis using Pendo, we have found a strong correlation between My Collection usage and Box AI adoption. Users who utilize My Collections tend to become more proficient and active with Box AI.To improve the employee experience and drive Box AI usage, we want to provide in-app training using Pendo guides. However, because the "+" button is hidden behind a hover state, we cannot properly anchor Pendo guides or tooltips to it. This technical limitation prevents us from effectively onboarding our employees.
Expected Outcome:
By keeping the "+" button always visible, we can implement Pendo guides to guide users in creating collections. This will lead to higher proficiency and significantly increase the adoption of Box AI across our organization.I would like to request a UI change for My Collections.

Subject: Connecting the Box AI Agent to File Hubs
I can select all the authorized Box AI Agents on almost any File Hub on Box.
However, since Box AI Agents are often created for specific purposes, I would like them to be preset only in specific folders and File Hubs.9 votes -
Change the word of the Reauthorize button for custom apps
After changing the scope of a custom app that was created in the past from the Developer Console, the admin must re-authorize the app.
After sending the authorization request, if you open the app details page from [Admin Console > Integrations > Platform Apps Manager > Target App], the scope before the change is displayed.
We can check the scope after the change by clicking the Reauthorize button in the upper right corner of the screen and displaying the popup.
After that, app approval is completed by clicking the Reauthorize button in the pop-up.However, the button on the app's details page says "Reauthorize," which leads admin to mistakenly believe that clicking the button will complete the app's authorize.
Please change the display to something like "Confirm Details" instead of "Reauthorize" to avoid misunderstandings.<カスタムアプリの再承認のボタンの文言を変更>
開発者コンソールから過去に作成したカスタムアプリのスコープを変更後、管理者がアプリを再承認する必要があります。
承認リクエスト送信後、[管理コンソール＞統合＞Platformアプリマネージャ＞対象のアプリ]からアプリの詳細ページを開いただけでは変更前のスコープが表示されています。
画面右上にある再承認ボタンをクリックし、ポップアップを表示させることで初めて変更後のスコープを確認できます。
その後ポップアップ内にある再承認ボタンをクリックすることでアプリの承認が完了します。しかし、アプリの詳細ページのボタンに『再承認』と書かれていることで、管理者はボタンをクリックするとアプリの承認が完了すると勘違いしてしまいます。
誤解を招かないよう『再承認』ではなく『詳細を確認』といった表示に変更してください。After changing the scope of a custom app that was created in the past from the Developer Console, the admin must re-authorize the app.

Quota Storage reporting
We have implemented Storage Quotas for our users and need a way to view if users are reaching their quotas. The only current way we have of doing this is doing a Users Details report and comparing the Storage Used and Storage Allocated fields. Have a dedicated Storage Quota report that shows percentage used and even projected dates for running out of space would be nice.

Additional Sorting Options for Managed Users in Users & Groups
I would like to request the addition of more sorting options for Managed Users in the Users & Groups console.
Currently, sorting is limited to Name, Email, and Storage Used.
It would be extremely helpful to include the following:
Sort by Last Activity
Enables identification of users who have never accessed Box or who are inactive.
Helps admins determine which accounts can potentially be cleaned up or require follow‑up.Sort by Status
Allows quick visibility into which users are disabled in Box.
Supports faster lifecycle management and removal of stale or unused accounts.
While this information is available through reports, having it directly accessible in the admin console would streamline user management workflows and reduce reliance on report exports.

Expandable metadata description fields
When adding descriptions for metadata fields (for the purposes of prompting the AI for MDE), the input field is too small, and my customer cannot see the prompts to edit in the UI. Please allow those fields to be expandable (up to the max character limit) to improve the UX for my customer.

Hub-level Terms of Service gate (per client portal) with auditable acceptance
Customers using Hubs as client/extranet portals need client-specific Terms of Service at the Hub level (not enterprise-wide). Many firms run multiple client portals, each with different legal terms, and they must be able to prove who accepted, when, and under what terms before granting access.
Requested capability:
Add a Hub/Portal-specific ToS “splash page” that requires users to Accept / Decline before viewing Hub content, with mandatory authentication and an audit trail.1 vote -

Box AI Q/A on a folder
Currently, if you want to use Q/A on multiple files, you need to be able to select each file or put the content in a hub. It would be good if we were able to use Box AI with a selected folder(s) as context instead of just files.

Box AI Describe Changes in File Versions
It would be useful if Box AI was able to tell me what has changes between different versions of documents.
For example, if my coworkers were updating a report or presentation while I was out of the office, it would be great if I could ask Box AI what changes have happened in the past x-number of days to the document to quickly bring me up to speed.

AI Agent model fallback
There are times when a specific AI provider has outages or inconsistencies in service, leading to degraded Box AI Agent performance. It would be good to be able to specify a fallback model in the event of elevated errors to ensure the agent continues to function.

Users should know what they are exposing outside
Is it possible to have a simple page accessible by a user, to get :
- all the shared links he has created (especially open links accessible by anyone outside, with or without password and expirity date)
- and old outside collaborations (with Box accounts needed)
?A lot of users create collaboration and shared links, and many months or years later they don't remember that these parameters are still in place (even if they don't work anymore with those external users).
