  1. Split and transfer data to several users when the owner is deleted (including folder assignment)

    Hi,
    it would be nice if I could split the data of a user to be deleted among more than 1 other user.

    If, for example, a department head leaves the company and another head takes over the disciplinary part on an interim basis, but the technical issues are still mapped in the department, it makes sense to be able to separate the structures. We are currently transferring the disciplinary page manually.

    Best regards,

  2. Ability to manage pop-up messages

    Integrate a switch to turn off pop-up notifications (those which pop up for every single step or process).
    Maybe have different levels of notifications, like for debugging ("none" to "confirm every step")
    There are way too many pop-ups in Box worsening the "user-experience".
    See what can happen, if you have daily several hundreds or thousands of clicks too much to do for unnecessary things like clicking away pop-up windows which notify you about things you already know you have done (like another user put it so aptly into Box community):

  3. Ability to search box note’s content

    Box notes are currently only searchable by the title of the note. We’d like to be able to search the content of the notes in addition to the titles.

  4. Add simple editing functionality for videos in Box (e.g. trim or stitch)

    Add simple editing functionality for videos in Box (e.g. trim or stitch).

    We take a lot of videos. Mostly from Zoom. Sometimes 8 hour learning sessions. Simple stitching or trimming would be valuable. Dropbox has this.

  6. Request for improvement of mail upload function

    I found a problem with the current mail upload function, so I would like Box to improve it.

    [Request (1): Adding Management Console and Folder Settings]
    Users with Editor permission can change the settings of the folder's mail upload function.
    However, I would like to add the ability to restrict this permission to owners and co-owners to the administrative console and the settings for each folder.

    [Request (2) Timing for saving the settings of the mail upload function]
    If you click "Allow uploads to this folder via email" about the mail upload function of the folder, the URL for the…

  7. Ability to update the "Learn More" Classification Link

    Box customers would like the ability to update the “Learn more” URL to a customer specific Classification Policy URL.They want to add the URL to their own Data Classification Policy that users can access as a reference. The URL that the customer would like to add is specific to the Data Classification Policy and not intended for Help or support URL to contact. They would like users to be able to refer to the policy for more information. Specifically, replace the “Learn more” URL which has nothing to do with data classification (the URL is about Box community). The admins…

  8. Ability to select report columns and filters for all Admin Console reports

    Similar to the User Activity report that allows the ability to select specific filters/columns, extend this to all other Admin Console reports so that each report can contained customized filters/columns.

  9. Secure open link - Domain white list for open shared link

    This request is an idea that will become possible after the following requests are realized.
    Secure open link① - Require email address verification with one-time password
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/43755942-secure-open-link-require-email-address-verifica

    【Summary】
    Please add "Allow only email addresses from specific domains to receive one-time passwords" to the Open Link settings.
    This will make it possible to prevent secondary distribution and miscommunication, which is a huge issue for Open Link.

    【Issues to be solved】
    Current Open Link is not secure enough as an alternative to attachments.
    Compared to attachments, the ability to determine the information of the access source and the ability to block access…

  11. Expired Shared Link Notification to Owner

    Today, if I click on an expired shared link I cannot access the file. Ideally, I'd like the content owner to be notified if I click on the expired shared link so that they know that I'm trying to access it/can make it available to me.

  12. Box notes should have variable width

    Box notes look silly when shared on a widescreen. Tables all scrunched into imaginary paper proportions. You should offer an option to dynamically widen the box note (and its contents) as the window widens.

  13. Notify user on corrupt file upload

    We should be able to notify a user when the file he just uploaded is detected by shield as corrupted.
    The notification could be sent by mail or by notification on the website, depending on the configuration given by the user.

    This feature is relly important on a legal base, because each user should have the ability to correct his own mistake.

  14. Folder of aliases to Box files for sharing

    In order to supply a group of files to a collaborator such as an outside contractor, one must copy existing files into a new folder. We need a way to gather the ALIAS /SHORTCUT to multiple files that can be placed in a single shared folder.

  15. Groups - Show the full Group name when editing Members and Shared Folders

    When editing Members or Shared Folders for a group, the breadcrumbs at the top show "Group > [Group Name] > Edit Users/Edit Shared Folders". The Group Name is truncated so you can't read the whole name, and there's no mouse-over help text either. Seems like it'd be a pretty simple fix to adjust the font size or rearrange the layout slightly to show the whole group name.

  17. Require approval when sharing content with a business justification

    Current access policy allows for external collaboration with a valid business justification, but we would also like to have the admin or folder owner approve the request to share externally, before the collaboration is sent. The current design doesn't allow for any validation and could potentially lead to content being shared with a restricted audience. Once the exception is approved, the collaboration could be set.

  19. Enable option for Box Relay to trigger a contract for e-signature after approval

    Enable option for Box Relay to trigger a contract for e-signature AFTER approval.

    E.g. after Legal redlines and approves a contract, then they have the option to: (1) whoever approved the task then signs the contract as part of the same workflow; (2) submit for esignature to whoever triggered the workflow; (3) customize who the contract is redirected to for esignature (e.g. to XXX@YYY.com).

    Enable ability to require that someone shares their email when depositing a File Request.

    Today, I can only require someone to login to their Box account OR use a text field that says email, but I want a field SPECIFICALLY called email inside of File Request, so that I can trigger a Box Relay workflow to notify the email of whoever triggered the workflow (e.g. if a submission is denied, I want to notify them that it was denied and to include why........ if a submission was approved, I want to notify them that it was approved and to include…
