Allow Device Trust full disk encryption to specify software encryption (ie. FileVault)
Presently, when creating a Device Trust Policy that requires full disk encryption for Mac, there is no option to require FileVault as an additional requirement for full disk encryption. As a result, existing hardware encryption using Apple Silicon or a T2 chip satisfies the encryption requirement. It would be helpful to add this functionality so we can enforce FileVault as part of our device trust requirements.

API Endpoint to Customize Collaboration Invitation Email
Currently, when sending collaboration invites via the API you are unable to customize the message. For collaborators that do not have a Box account, it leads to the invitation message showing:
"" - FirstName Last Name
This is unprofessional and often confusing to the individuals receiving the invitation.

Enhanced Folder Naming for Signature Links
Current Issue
When documents are issued via Box Sign signature links, the folders created during storage are named with dates only. We would like the ability to include document-identifying codes or keywords in folder names.Current behavior:
File names are preserved, but folders are subsequently named with dates only
When signature links are sent to multiple recipients, it becomes difficult to quickly identify which document belongs to which person
Lack of clear organization makes document management challenging
Proposed Enhancement
Folder naming should include:Signature recipient's name
Document-identifying keywords or codes
Customizable naming conventions
Business Impact
This enhancement would significantly improve…3 votes -
Add native file support for .sas file type
please add support for .sas file types. SAS files cannot be previewed, cannot be content searched, and they do not show in the Search results at all due to being an unsupported file type. We have thousands of .sas files stored in Box; being able to locate them via the Box Search tool would remove a pain point for many of our staff.

In Doc Gen
In Doc Gen I would like to be able to conditionally display an item in a list of items based on evaluation of an item property value or values using the standard evaluation rules. For example,
{{tablerow contact in case.contacts}}
{{if contact.includeContact == "Yes"}}
Dear {{contact.firstName}} {{contact.lastName}}

Please make it so Box AI can compare the pixel differences between images.
We use Adobe Workfront to help tell any slight pixel differences between two seemingly identical images.
Please make it so Box AI can compare the pixel differences between images so that we can more easily standardize on Box.

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…

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.

Create Doc Gen templates from PDF
I have had multiple customers and partners ask for the capability to build Doc Gen templates from PDF documents (existing and non-existing). This is a capability that would help advance the adoption of our new offering.

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.

Box search results need to be sorted by "oldest first"
Box search results are currently displayed in order of "newest update date," but we have received many requests to display them in order of "oldest update date."
