Batch Email Notification for Policy Violation
If an admin uploads a folder of 10 documents to Box and each violates an upload policy, the end user will receive 10 email notifications. Our admin has asked that we batch these emails together if the violation happens within a certain time period.
0 votesThank you for the suggestion! At the moment there is no plan to update notifications. We may look into this in the future.

Box Tools: Change Cache location
Ability to customise the location of Box Tools folder
We would like to have the feature to customise the location of Box Tools folders such as logs and cache folder. We want to have those under drive of other volume letter instead of the default location under C drive. This is because the storage size of C drive can be limited.

Prevent file duplication when using template and file replacement
Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common to…48 votes -
ability to upload direct from a clients google drive to Box
We have found that most of our clients use google drive for storage of content for us to work with. We could really use a tool that assists us in transfers direct from google drive to our Box

Ability to schedule outcomes in Relay relative to the trigger date
Rather than selecting a specific date for an event to occur, add the ability to schedule an outcome (e.g., send notification) on a date relative to the date the trigger occurs. For example, Trigger = file upload, Outcome = send notification 180 days after file upload.

Box Relay
Allow metadata and other substitutions in the message body and subject lines of the Assign a Task and Send a Notification outcomes. We would like to be able to customize message body and subject lines with one or more metadata items. As an example, if we have a workflow that is being run for each of several subject people (think onboarding a group of new employees), the tasks will be assigned to the same user for multiple people. We'd like to add name of target employee in the subject line or body of the outcomes.

Granular details around user account edits
Current reports show when a user account was edited, and who/what edited the user account. There are no specific details regarding what on the user account was edited

Classify multiple Box Shield alerts at the same time
We recently had a user upload a lot of content to their Box account in one go during a migration from local file storage to cloud storage. There was a lot of really old data that Box detected as being malicious (over 700 files). Based on spot checks throughout the data, we've determined that the data is not actually malicious and is a false positive. With the current UI, it'd take forever to mark each of the 700+ alerts as a false positive. It would be much nicer to be able to multi-select the alerts from the main list…

When a folder is moved to another folder, user would like to receive a notification when the folder is moved from the folder settings.
I would like to receive notifications in the following three cases.
Notification when a user is moved to another folder. (Reason: Because there are many cases where other users are moved by mistake and there is no way to immediately confirm the move.)
Notification when an error occurs while moving an item. (Reason: To be able to determine the situation in which the move failed so that the next action can be taken more easily.)
3.Notification after the move is completed. (Reason: To be able to confirm that the move is complete, so that it can be judged…

Reminders for past due tasks
Adding a Due Date to a task gives a visual within the notification email & the activity slider. Could we add logic to this date where it will send out a reminder as past due and/or change the assignee’s name to red?
5 votesThis suggestion has been delivered and is generally available (GA). Due date changes to red when a task is overdue, and assignees will receive email reminders that the task is outstanding.

Add a feature to include all recipients in the fully executed copy notification and to attached a fully executed copy in PDF. Currently it
Please add a feature to include all recipients in the fully executed copy notification and to attached a fully executed copy in PDF. Currently it's confusing, since the signers and cc recipients gets directly a copy of the fully executed copy, but there's no way for the signers to determine who gets a fully executed copy, which adds to the confusion. This is very useful for viewing executed pdf from a mobile device (no need to signin to Box sign app which is cumbersome esp when SSO and MFA is enabled)
Citrix RightSignatture has this feature and it's really useful.

Forcing a page refresh when access is revoked
Currently within the webapp, if someone created a public link and scope of the link access changes from "People with the link" to either of the more restrictive options, the user can still view contents of the page despite getting an updated floating notification that says "Sorry, you no longer have access to this note."

People who reassign should still receive emails about that document
My workflow requires me to send documents on to agents, who review documents before sending on to their clients to sign (via 'reassign').
After reassigning, the agent no longer receives information about the document. This seems counterintuitive, and isn't in line with other online document signature services. I can't think of a reason why you would need to be removed from the email chain like this. If you no longer need to know about the document, you can simply ignore the final email about its completion, but if you do, currently you would have to rely on someone still in…

Boolean search function to be applicable to tags
Would love to use my Box as a Digital Asset Manager but the tag system really needs a boolean search function.
Boolean searching is used to help find search results faster and with more precision. Boolean searching uses operators: words like AND, OR, and NOT.
We might have to take pour storage else where due the cost of having both a Box account and a DAM.

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 version5 votes -
Function to disable the display of the login authentication screen for Box for Microsoft Office co-editing features on a per-user basis.
The following is a request regarding the seamless login feature.
https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355To avoid displaying the login authentication screen, we understand that enabling the co-editing feature for only certain users in the tenant settings will resolve the issue.
However, if the number of users enabling or disabling the co-editing feature increases, managing user and group additions or removals through tenant settings each time becomes extremely cumbersome and impractical.
Implementing this feature enables end users to handle issues immediately on their own, reducing the burden on administrators.下記シームレスログイン機能に関する要望です。
https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355ログイン認証画面を表示させないためには、テナント設定で一部のユーザーにのみ共同編集機能を有効にすれば回避できると認識しています。
但し、共同編集機能を有効/無効にするユーザーが増えたりした場合に都度テナント設定からの制限ではユーザーやグループの出し入れ等の操作が非常に手間となり現実的ではありません。
本機能を実装することでエンドユーザー自身で即時に対応できるようになり管理者の負担を減らすことができます。21 votes -
Tasks in relay are owned by Relay owner rather than workflow initiator
Currently tasks have owner and assignee. The owner is always relay owner, who gets notifications when there are any changes to the task which may not be ideal.
Allow for an option to have the task owner be the workflow initiator instead.

Invite users to file request
We would like to inform our users that we have created a file request area for them. As soon as we create a file request we would like to be able to send a number of users a notification that they should upload their files there.
Currently we have to manually copy the URL into an email to inform people, which breaks the flow. We would like the same functionality we see when creating shared links.

Change email in deletion notification to users.
We would like to include a different email in the deletion notifications to users than the default of including the admin email.
0 votesThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.
