Automating Document Creation via Dynamic Table Generation with Forms & Doc Gen
[Request]
Enable Dynamic Table Generation When Creating Documents with Forms + Doc Gen[Customer Use Case]
The headquarters IT department wants to automate the monthly task of issuing invoices for system usage fees to the group’s local subsidiaries.[Customer Needs]
They want to implement the following workflow as a web-based solution without custom development.- Enter invoice data per subsidiary via Forms
- Generate the invoice with Doc Gen
- Send a signature request to the manager via Box Sign
- After the manager signs, move the document to the shared folder with the local subsidiary
At present, this could be achieved by using the Doc Gen API, but that would require application development, which is a significant hurdle for the customer.
If the above can be done on the web without custom development, they believe it could be reused in other scenarios and accelerate broader business process automation.
=====================================================
[要望]
Forms + Doc Gen でドキュメント生成する際に動的なテーブルを生成できるようにしてほしい。［顧客のユースケース］
本社 IT 部門が、グループ内の現地法人に対してシステム利用料の請求書を毎月発行する作業を自動化したい。［顧客のニーズ］
以下の業務プロセスをカスタム開発なしの Web ベースのワークフローとして実現したい。- Forms で法人ごとに請求書データを入力
- Doc Gen で請求書を生成
- Box Sign で上司に署名リクエストを送信
- 上司の署名完了後、現地法人との共有フォルダにドキュメントを移動
現状、Doc Gen API を使えば実現可能だが、アプリケーション開発が必要になり、顧客にとってハードルが高い。
上記が Web ベースで実現できれば、他の業務シーンにも横展開でき、顧客の業務自動化を加速できると考えている。[Request]

image preview of a file when uploaded to forms
We wanted to do a 'final asset quality approval' workflow utilising Box Forms... but because Forms doesn't have the capacity to show a small thumbnail image of what's been uploaded, and after a meeting with PM it doesn't sound like this is coming anytime soon, we are going to use Jotform instead and integrate it. It's a shame as it would've been a great e-advanced use case. Can we get image previews of assets uploaded to Box Forms?

Redundant Shield alerts
Box Shield should be able to recognize when the same file or file set appears in multiple locations and treat it as a single item, rather than generating duplicate alerts across each instance. This would allow users to acknowledge (or dismiss) an alert globally—once for all occurrences—rather than having to clear it separately for every flagged file.

File Request Confirmation to the Email Address Added
When a File Request is completed the person who uploads should also receive a email confirmation when they enter their email address. Currently it is only going to the person who set up the File Request link.

Retain only recent versions of files
A lot of storage space is dedicated to old versions of files that will never be needed. We would like the ability to retain large number of versions of content in the short term, but to only keep few versions older than a year.

Ability to Reassign Group Admin Permissions En Masse
Via the GUI, it would be great to be able to reassign group admin permissions to a user for multiple groups in bulk. Use case is one user is admin for many internal groups, they leave the org, and their admin role requires replacement.

I’d like the workflow error messages to include specific details about what the problem is.
Now that BoxAutomate has been released, I’m really excited about all the new possibilities it will unlock inside Box.
However, with the current specifications, when an error occurs in a workflow, a message is displayed, but it doesn’t tell us what exactly went wrong.
With things the way they are, it’s impossible for us to fix the workflow on our own. It’s like being told, “Something’s broken… somewhere… good luck!”
To enable users to fix errors by themselves, we’d like the error messages to clearly specify the detailed points where the problem occursワークフローでエラーが発生した場合、メッセージが表示されるが、具体的にどこが問題なのかが分からないです。
これではワークフローを自分たちで修正することもできません。
ユーザーが自分でエラーを直せるように、エラーメッセージには詳細なポイントを明記してほしいと考えています。1 vote -
Increase Multi-Document Querying Limitations from 10
The current system limits the number of documents that can be reviewed in a single session, which has led some public sector users to process eligibility documents in multiple smaller batches. In practice, screenings often involve significantly more documents (70 in some cases) than the system currently supports in one batch (10 max), resulting in added workload and inefficiency.

Hubs permission model should be more granular
Currently in the Box Hubs Beta, all collaborators invited into a Hub receive the "Viewer" permission on files and folders linked in the Hub. This does not allow for Hub content to be view-only and block downloading of content. Alternative methods of managing this such as rolling out classification policies would not be scalable as Hubs usage grows. It would be great if Hubs collaboration could be more granular and there was an ability to invite users or groups into a Hub with other permissions such as "Previewer" so they are more restricted on what they can do after accessing content.

Feature Request: Increase Prompt Length Limit for AI Ask Prompt API
Hi Box Team,
We are using the AI Ask Prompt API (post-ai-askprompt), and the current 10,000-character prompt length limit is proving to be too restrictive for practical AI use cases.
Reference: https://developer.box.com/reference/post-ai-askprompt
Many scenarios—such as working with long documents, adding sufficient context, or giving detailed instructions—require longer prompts. With the current limit, important context must be truncated, which often reduces response quality.
Request: Increase the maximum prompt length
Expanding this limit would significantly improve the usability and value of Box AI for developers and enterprise workflows.
Thank you for considering this feedback.

Export objects from Box Canvas
It has become very convenient to be able to export the entire Box Canvas as a PNG file.
However, it would be even more useful if individual objects on the Canvas could be copied and pasted into PowerPoint as separate objects.

We would like the "Share" UI for web collaboration to be improved.
Currently, the options for inviting users and generating a shared link are on the same screen, which can be confusing for users.
Please separate the invitation and shared link issuance into clearly distinct screens.

The locking feature in Box for Microsoft Office
Collaborative editing is convenient, but there is a need to prevent others from making edits while someone is making important changes. In Box for Microsoft Office, I would like a feature that allows me to explicitly lock a document while I am editing it, in order to prevent editing conflicts or unintended overwrites by other users during collaborative editing.
共同編集は便利ですが、誰かが重要な修正をしている間は他の人の編集を防ぎたいというニーズがあります。

Allow for Duplication of Automate Workflows and Creation of Automate Templates
Currently, Relay has the ability to duplicate workflows, but Automate does not. We can also create templates for Relay workflows, but not for Automate. Automate should have the same capabilities.

AI Summarize document content capability for Signers
Hi Box Team,
We would love to see Box AI integrated directly into the Box Sign experience for signers.
Currently, if an executive or legal rep wants to summarize a contract or check key terms before signing, they have to download the document and upload it to a separate AI tool. This creates extra steps and pulls them entirely out of the Box ecosystem.
Bringing Box AI into the signer view would allow users to securely review documents without leaving the workflow. It would also help Box Sign match industry standards set by platforms like DocuSign, where native AI review is quickly becoming the expectation.
