  1. Folder tree order up side down when move/copy

    In folder view on Web Application, upper folder tree view is shown when working with deep folders.(left corner)
    The display order of this tree view and the tree view displayed when you "move/copy" a file are up side down.
    (where[...]mouse hober over)
    (Folder hierarchy ascending/descending order)
    So, when moving files, there is a possibility of causing a mistake in the destination.

    Normal folder view: 1st>2nd>3rd>4th>5th

    View on Move/Copy: 5th>4th>3rd>2nd>1st

    It's happy to be if it is a same display order.

    Most of users remain on Box Drive/explorer, for a transformation, we would like to recommend Box web application for users.…

  2. Jira Integration - 'Attach from Box'

    Work with Jira to provide a Box integration allowing Box files to be easily 'attached' to Jira issues. Currently, users can choose from content locally stored on their computer when attaching files to issues, but this request is for:

    1. An integration that would allow the user to 'attach from Box'
    2. Once a Box file is 'attached' to an issue, Jira would then keep that content in sync between Box and Jira (just like Slack does)

    This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

  3. Shared Link vs Shared Folder Collaborator Options

    I would like to grant Previewer collaborator option when creating a shared link on a file.

    1. When using the Shared Link for a file, only available collaborator options are Editor and Viewer.
    2. When using the Shared Link for a folder, available collaborator options: Uploader, Previewer, Viewer, Previewer Uploader, Viewer Uploader, Editor, Co-Owner.

    When granting access at the folder level opens a security hole where later files can be viewed as well, when only one file needs to be shared.

  5. Increase maximum image size for branding a Box Sign to above 1 MB

  6. permanently purge file version history

    Hello,

    We have a use case that we use box as a temporary storage location in a workflow. But once the workflow is finished, we would like to purge the information but "keep" the same boxfileid. We thought by deleting the version history, we would have achieved this. But it turns out the deleted version history is restorable.

    I am wondering if it is possible to
    (1) optionally make a file "not" able to store version history
    (2) or optionally permanently delete a version

  7. Workflow approval tasks: More than one must approve and less than all may approve a workflow approval task.

    Workflow approval tasks: More than one must approve and less than all may approve a workflow approval task.

    Today, if I want to invite 3 people to approve a task, but I only need 2/3 to approve it, then this is not an option. Similarly, if I want to invite 10 people to approve a task, but I only need 6/10 to approve it, then this is not an option.

    I only have the option for one person to approve it or for everybody to approve it.

  8. Ability to see owned vs. collaborated content

    From content manager, we would like the ability to filter the content by only showing content the user is 1) an owner of and/or 2) is a co-owner of, and/or 3) is collaborated on.

    When a user leaves the organization, we will disable the account for a few months. Before it is deleted, we would like to have the possibility to easily see the impact for other users if/when the content is deleted. If needed, we would then assign new owners for content collaborated on before that content is deleted.

  9. BOX should give us more options to work with subfolder access

    When you give the Viewer access to a group of people in the root of a structure, you could work with subfolders by 1) removing some people from access specific subfolders or 2) changing the type of access specific person would have. For example,
    1) I have specific content that should be restricted but need to manage it in a single place. If I try to remove a person from a subfolder, it will remove this person from the whole structure.
    2) I can create a root folder called "Teams" and give everyone the viewer access to it (since the…

  10. Reports to track Box Relay creation

    We need a reporting feature that tracks the status of Box Relay creation.

    Reasons:

    1.When a workflow template is duplicated, it is possible to use it without changing its name, which leads to the existence of multiple workflows with the same name.

    2.The only way to monitor usage is through user activity logs, which do not provide information on frequency of use or usage status.

    3.If workflows created by employees on leave remain unused or incorrectly configured, the transfer process could be omitted.

  11. Simplify "File Request" window

    I have users on my team still using ShareFile to specifically "request files" from external people because the process is simpler. Three key suggestions for the Box "File request" feature:
    1) Can you streamline the pop-up window to focus on the "link" versus the embed widget link. 2) Expose the option/checkbox of the requestor to receive an email when the content is uploaded.
    3) Allow the requestor to adjust the expiration date. Default would be tied to the admin link share policies

    Thanks!

  12. Ready-Sign Links: Ability to make signers optional

    Currently, ready-sign links require all signers to be assigned (i.e. I must enter an email address for signer 1 and signer 2). This means that one can't create a ready-sign link when multiple signers might be (but aren't always) needed.

    Examples:

    • A registration form for an event where all attendees in the party need to sign. If there is only one attendee, there are no additional signers (and those fields would be left blank)

    • A form that must also be signed by a parent if the primary signer is a minor. If the primary signer is NOT a minor, no…

  13. Change prompt message for shared-folder deletion

    Currently the message is "Are you sure you want to delete this item",
    but when it is shared by other people, in most cases users are not aware that other collaborators will not be able to access that folder and all included files.

    Suggest the message to be specific and please also add additional prompt like "Are you sure? This folder has XX items in it." since we have experienced few times that root folders are deleted and 1-2 days are needed to restore.

  14. Exact search queries using quotes should not include wildcards

    Currently as per Box's community article, all searches implicitly include trailing wildcards:

    "Trailing wildcards are implicitly included in search results because of the way text is indexed. Searching for Bo results in items with the words Box or Boat or Boxer. It is the equivalent of searching for Bo* or Bo% in traditional search engines. Traditional wildcard notation is not supported by Box, such as %ox% "

    However, this leads to search results that are both 1) too wide and 2) not intuitive based on search norms

    i.e., one would think that searching (with quotes) for " Box " would…

  15. In Box Relay, when an approval task is rejected, I want to be able to select any step.

    I would like to create a workflow like the following:

    Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 1) -> Approval Task 1 -> Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 2) -> Approval Task 2 -> Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 3) -> Approval Task 3

    If Approval Task 3 is rejected, the file would remain in "Awaiting approval 3".
    However, I actually want to move it to "Awaiting approval 2".
    It is necessary to return to the "Move (Destination: Awaiting approval 2) "step, NOT the "Task" step.

    ■In Japanese

    以下のようなワークフローを作りたいです。

    ファイル移動(移動先フォルダ:承認中1)→承認1→ファイル移動(移動先フォルダ:承認中2)→承認2→ファイル移動(移動先フォルダ:承認中3)→承認3

    承認3で却下された場合、ファイルが「承認中3」に残ったままになってしまいますが、本来は「承認中2」に移動させたいです。
    そのため、"タスク"のステップではなく、"ファイル移動(承認中2)"のステップに戻せるようにすることが必要です。

  18. Move "Log in" green banner when viewing shared link while not signed into Box

    If you view a shared link while you're not signed into Box, you'll see a green banner at the top: "Log in to Box to securely share, edit, and collaborate on files in real-time with other people." The banner blocks the "Download" button on the right. While there is an X to close the banner, there are two issues:

    1) Less tech-savvy people don't know to close the banner and can't figure out how to download
    2) Others may think you need a Box account in order to access the content

    It would be helpful to either move the banner…

  19. Box CLI - need more output options for folders:items.

    Specific to "box folders:items" but probably other commands as well:

    1) If I'm asking for --csv, AND specifying the fields via --fields=, I don't need a header telling me the fields I just requested. I'd like an option to disable the header, or default disable it and make me add it back.

    2) If I'm asking for specific fields as --csv, give me just those fields. If I'm asking for --fields=id I don't want it served back to me as "folder,#", I don't want to know it's a folder. If I later do something against that ID that is not…

  20. Box Shield Smart Access - Require approval when doing a Business Justification override of a Classification

    I want to allow team members to override a Box Shield Classification/Access Policy with a Business Justification ONLY IF the appropriate person approves the override.

    "Appropriate person" would be 100% configurable and different across different Classification Labels. Options like:
    - Person who created the Classification Label
    - Main Admin or Co-Admin with appropriate permissions
    - An assigned authorized person or group (e.g. legal, compliance, infosec, IT, folder or file owner).

    E.g. scenario #1: "Highly Classified" label - only Admin, Co-Admin with Shield permission, xxx person in InfoSec, or yyy person in IT could approve the override.

    E.g. scenario #2: "Internal…
