Ability to Disable or Choose email Notification when Inviting Collaborators
We would like to have the option to email or not email a collaborator when sharing a content in Box. Example use case is when cleaning up Box permissions (group vs individual) and the Admin needs to do that seamlessly without bombarding he whole organization with Box invites to files/folders hey already have access to. Specially required for Internal collaborators.
Providing access permissions does not always require an invite given the way Box works, the internal user will simply see the content when they access their Box Drive or he portal.1 vote -
"Recents" feature - Feedback
There is a box notification above "Updates" page that states the following:
"Box has decided to end of life (EOL) the Updates feature on August 31, 2022. As an alternative to Updates, please use Recents to access content you have recently interacted with."As "Recents" feature does not offer any information about other users' interaction in shared files and folders (comments, uploads, views, etc) and, additionally, the notification system does not work for most of these instances (comments without tagging, uploading, etc) or does not work well enough (many times there is no notification or it is well delayed), this…

Auto-notify collaborators when a file is uploaded to a folder
The folder owner should be able to create an email notification for all subscribers to the folder to receive a notification when a new file is uploaded to Box.
The email would be sent to the user's email on file for that Box folder. The user would not have to update his/her own settings. The folder owner would set notifications, and the user would have to turn them off if too frequent.
The scenario is that a shared Box folder with <10 users. The users are generally infrequent users of Box, so do not proactively check on the folder…

Allow users to know whether a file has been updated via Box Drive.
Add notifications on file updates within Box Drive. If a file is currently updated, we need to view notifications in the web browser as Box Drive does not show this.

Ability to control and mute email notifications that comes from tasks
Whenever a task is assigned via an automation, that task is assigned by the main admin, who will also receive email notifications regarding the task.
Because this is done through automations, the admin will get flooded with emails about the task, which is not desirable in a large organization.
1 voteTasks emails from Relay will now come from the person who created workflow, rather than the main company admin.

If a managed user triggers IP CAPTCHA, send an email notification to the enterprise's admin.
If a user triggers CAPTCHA on an IP address, it could potentially impact many users if our account is NATing our IPs to one external IP.
Typically this is caused by an end user saving a bad set of credentials into some kind of client (FTP or WebDAV) that is constantly trying to reconnect.
2 votesThis request makes sense, but this is not something that is planned for the foreseeable future.
I will keep monitoring similar cases and prioritize once this becomes a high value request.

box sync ignore files
Are you kindly considering adding a feature to skip / ignore certain paths (directories, files) stored on local machine from syncing? Some examples of situations where inability to exclude files from backup causes undesired issues: 1) There are programs which store temporary files among synced folders. These temporary files frequently change and are deleted on program exit, which results into frequent unnecessary synchronization and deletion of files in cloud, therefore waste of computing resources and bandwidth. 2) Specific program creates empty file "running" to indicate it's in running state. Box Sync does not sync empty file but warns user each…

Ability to turn off optional message field on shared link email and add collaborator dialogs
Many customers in regulated industries do NOT like the fact that some email notifications from Box have the ability to enter an optional message that will be included as part of the notification. Because this email bypass the customer email gateway they don't have visibility into what that message is. This feature is a compliance issue and should have the ability to turn it off.
The Box Compliance Email Archive is not sufficient for some customers and that is why one way to solve this would be disabling the feature.

Box CLI Email Notifications and Folder Settings
We would like to enable upload notifications for select folders, on particular users or groups.
Currently users need to go into each folder's settings to then check the box for upload notifications, or they can select upload notifications in their user settings.
The first option is very time consuming, we have about 140 folders that we would like to target and it is hard to force employee's to complete this.
The 2nd option removes the importance of notifications if users are being notified for everything.It would be great to have a bulk option to enable …

Relay Workflow to follow messages/ notifications to activities
It would be super helpful if you could use Box Relay to let a notification follow an activity. I know that you can generate tasks, but in that case I just want to let a certain group of users know that there is new content in a folder. A notification would be the best way to do this.

Request for addition of a function to change the display unit of the storage size of insights in the management console
Currently, the display units for the overall size and the detailed size are different, and I would like to convert the units depending on whether I want to see a rough view or see more details, but it would be a hassle to convert each.
Therefore, we would like you to add a function to convert the display unit.＜管理コンソールのインサイトのストレージのサイズの表示単位を変更する機能の追加要望＞
現状全体および詳細なサイズの表示単位が異なっており、ざっくり見たい場合やより詳細を見たい場合などに応じて単位変換したいが、それぞれ変換するのは手間になります。
そのため表示単位を変換する機能を追加してほしいです。1 vote -
Security Report: Include Changes to Any Setting from Enterprise Settings
Currently, the Security Report doesn't appear to capture quite a few settings changes that happen in Enterprise Settings in the Admin console, which is bad.
For example, if an admin is wanting to know who changed the 'save files to device' setting on the Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Mobile tab, there's no in-product way currently to identify that. Also,
--All Notifications tab settings except for the Compliance Email Archive settings are missing
--ALL settings from the Apps tab are missing, meaning there are no filters/logs exposed currently for any changes to make apps available/disabled, disabling all published…30 votes -
Sender info in Relay
I would like you to add a setting for "who" went to the BoxRelay event.
For example, when managing files for the same task in the same folder, if the person in charge (uploader) and the confirmer (notification recipient) are different for each file, it would be convenient to be able to set different notification recipients according to the uploader.Thank you for your consideration.
（In Japanese）
BoxRelayのイベントで「誰が」行ったかの設定を追加してほしいです。
例えば同一フォルダで同じ業務のファイルを管理するケースで、ファイル毎に担当者（アップローダー）と確認者（通知先）が異なる場合、アップロードした人によって通知先を別々に設定できると便利になります。ご検討のほどよろしくお願いいたします。

Mass enable notifications under Account Settings --> Sharing - General Email and Notification
We want to encourage people to rely on messages in Box as well as via email if more appropriate. Currently, the default is that the email notifications are turned off. We would like to be able to choose to default ON with individuals deselecting if they prefer.

As an admin, I should be able to designate a folders zone (not restricted by the user).
In a closed environment where you have a single user designated as the owner, you are currently unable to utilize multiline tenancy. In an instance where UK HR Files need to have a zone of UK and US HR Files need to be in the US zone, I would need to create a separate service account to own each set of files.
Ideally you would be able to designate anything containing PII/PIA/IP to a root folder with a designated zone based on data storage compliance. Allowing multiple users to access without worrying about the need for unnecessary service accounts which…

Request to suppress collaborator invitation emails.
When needing to invite a single user into multiple files and subfolders within a given folder, but not into all files in that specific folder, we'd like to see a way to suppress the email notifications that are automatically sent to that user each time the collaborator invitation is sent.
Currently there is no way to choose to not have the email notifications go out and then it inundates the user's inbox.
