Add further columns to Shared Links report
In order to prepare a csv file to bulk update existing shared links, it is necessary to
A) run TWO reports - a BOX USERS Report (CLI command), and a SHARED LINKS ReportIf however, you wish to provide a list of shared links to each Box user who created the link(s), then a THIRD report is needed, a USER ACTIVITY Report (for max years, Items Shared action). This report needs to be filtered to show only the latest date/user that created the link (NB a shared link may be created more than once)
B) then the BOX USERS Report…

Do not display add-ins that are hidden in the Microsoft tenant settings
Although we have set the Add-ins button to be hidden in the Microsoft 365 admin center, this setting is not reflected when opening Office Online via Box, and users are still able to add add-ins.
If users add add-ins that administrators are not aware of, there is a possibility that we may not be able to respond to any issues or security problems that may arise as a result.
We request either that the settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center be applied to Box, or that Box provide an option to hide the Add-ins button in Office Online.In…

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

Korea zones
I would like to have Korea added as a new Zones country.
There is a law passed that the content needs to be stored in Korea so we will need Korea Zones to use Box in Korea.6 votes -
AI Model Name Display
When using Box AI for Documents or Box AI for Notes, please display the name of the currently active AI model on the screen so users can see which model they are using.
As AI models evolve, the same question may yield different answers than before. Therefore, it is important for users to always know which AI model they are currently using.3 votes -
Remove Platform App Change Approval Requirement & Improve SDK/API support
I currently have a production issue (all key functionality is severely impaired, on par with an outage) as a result of failed API calls and because changing App Platform settings requires the approval of a Box Enterprise Admin review and approval. There is no ETA on how long this will take: days, weeks, months? Other community posts echo this concern and there were no concrete answers provided. This is revenue impacting and needs attention in the next 12 hours. While I understand this is not an enterprise account and there are only so many admins that can review these requests,…

Export / Import annotations via API
Box is growing fast and being considered a real challenger to the rest of ECM platforms, but it still lacks important features to be fully considered when migrating from those other platforms. There's no option at all to bring over annotations from existing systems or recreate them via API. For some business units that's a MUST, so it would be perfect to have that option available.

Add a “comment visibility” option in Link Settings
In Link Settings, we’d like an option to control whether comments are visible.
Currently, when a shared link is set to a non-edit permission such as Can view only (or Can view and download), comments aren’t visible to viewers. Even for non-edit shared links, we want viewers to be able to view timestamped comments on videos, since this feature is extremely useful.
Use case: We publish videos on Box Hubs and share them externally using People with the link (Can view only). If viewers could see comments, we could point them to specific parts of the video more efficiently.（日本語）…

Allow Device Pinning for web
Per the documentation, it appears that we should be able to enable Device Pinning for Box.com via web client:
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043693814-Device-PinningHowever, despite the above documentation, there are only options to enforce Device Pinning for the mobile, tablet, and sync applications:
https://app.box.com/master/settings/devicesUsing sync instead of web is also not a viable alternative, as it has been sunset, with an EOL of December 2026:
https://community.box.com/admin-forum-25/announcing-end-of-life-for-box-sync-33734Notably, its replacement, Box Drive, is also not listed under Device Pinning.

version
Allow the option to keep the existing filename when uploading a new version. Filenames are often autogenerated by the software producing the file. After uploading to Box, I usually rename the file to a more meaningful name. When I generate a new version of the file, it will have a different name, and then upload it to Box as a new version. Box renames it to the same name as the newly uploaded file, meaning I have to rename it again. I would like the ability to keep the previous name instead of the name of the newly uploaded file.

We would like the ability to hide the “Download Report” button in Folder Insights.
Folder Insight reports can be output by specifying a folder of which you are the owner.
If you are using a closed folder tenant, the owners of managed folders are only users with administrator privileges, and end users do not own folders, so even co-owners cannot output folder insight reports.
If you actually specify a folder with permissions below that of the co-owner and output it, you will get an “Insufficient permissions to create report folder” error.
We would like to see this feature implemented to prevent such errors and confusion.フォルダインサイトのレポート出力先は自身が所有者となっているフォルダを指定することで出力可能となります。
クローズドフォルダのテナントを利用している場合、管理しているフォルダの所有者は管理者権限を持つユーザーのみとなり、
エンドユーザーにおいては所有するフォルダがないことから共同所有者でもフォルダインサイトのレポート出力はできません。
実際に共同所有者以下の権限を持つフォルダを指定して出力すると「Insufficient permissions to create report folder」のエラーとなります。…9 votes -
Box Relay
Box Relay needs to be able to create a work flow for a parent folder and have it work for all child folders. A user is setting up a simple notification (upload, download) and then sends a notification to a set of users with a message. The user currently has to replicate or create a new Relay for each child folder. Very, very silly to have to waist so much time.

Give the Box Admin the ability to clone (mirror) an existing user's access when adding a new user to Box.
The goal is to streamline user provisioning by allowing Box Admins to replicate the permissions and folder access of an existing user when creating and adding a new user to Box.
This eliminates manual steps and ensures consistency in access control.
Why It’s Valuable?
Efficiency: Admins often need to onboard users with similar roles or responsibilities. Instead of manually assigning folders and permissions, cloning saves time.
Consistency: Reduces human error by ensuring the new user has identical access as the reference user.
Scalability: Ideal for large organizations where teams share common folder structures.

Index Lists
Suggest to add feature allowing users to download index lists of folder contents.
This feature could be permissioned, but the current protocol of requiring Box admin approval is challenging to navigate, and the produced index lists are not organized or very useful.

Due to the malfunction of my mobile device, I am currently unable to access a specific Box link.
The issue may be caused by one of the following:Lack of access permissions
Although I am able to log in, I may not have been granted the necessary permissions (e.g., Viewer or Editor) to view the relevant folder or files.Expired or restricted shared link
The shared link may have expired or been restricted to specific users, preventing access.Incomplete multi-factor authentication (MFA) setup

Hubs open documents in new tab
When opening a document in Box Hubs, the browser window is fully taken over by the document, and it's not currently possible to use standard browser actions like Ctrl+Click, middle mouse click, or right-click > "Open in New Tab." This limitation significantly hinders the ability to efficiently review multiple documents at once and makes side-by-side comparisons impossible. It would greatly improve productivity if Box Hubs allowed documents to be opened in new tabs. Please consider updating this feature.

from Box Folder (Filtered) View - Start Box Relay
Most of solutions would need filtered data for example, to track the status of any document or request, one would need Status field to track the progress and showing user a filtered view is necessary. From same view, if relay can be initiated would be highly appreciated.
