Uploading files with exactly the same hash value on BoxDrive should not be recorded as a 'copy' in the user activity report
If I upload a new file on Box Drive and then upload the same file (with the same hash value) again, the server copies the first uploaded file to reduce load and the user activity report records it as a copy. Even if these two file names are different!
In this case, if I have a workflow triggered by 'upload' in Box Relay, the trigger may not work because the event is considered a copy.
This behaviour is a limitation of the product specification, but I would like a fix so that it is treated as an upload.■In Japanese…

Ability to configure Microsoft Teams Chat Files to exclude external user
We would like to be able to set it so that external users are not invited to Microsoft Teams Chat Files.
Currently, there is no way to prevent this from happening in the chat settings on the Teams side.
In addition, it is possible to invite external users on Box.(In Japanese)

Unable to add a content to a Hub site due to folder settings and Enterprise settings
When an user who is invited as editor to contents at folder level or file level tries to choose q folder or file to add a Hub site, those files and folders are grayed out and unable to choose.

Allow user configurable files and folder list length in list view
As we move file shares into Box, we are getting more and more users who want to see/configure a longer list(or possibly scrollable list) in the files/folder list view. Essentially, they don't want to have to click every 20 files or so to browser their way through a list of 1000 files in a folder -- they just want to see what's there.

MS Office @ mentions to sync and notify users
@ mention comments, tags and notifications section in Microsoft Office apps, should also integrate with Box interface and notifications. Great achievement with co-authoring, however, it is highly inconvenient to have to comment on Box preview, and then open the file to work/edit. Ideally users need to be able to @ mention and tag other colleagues/users within the MS application, which should notify other users to take action on the required document. Otherwise it creates duplication of work/inefficiencies in the process.

Expand Capabilities for Adding External Collaborators to Relay Tasks/Notifications
Currently, a user can only add an external collaborator to a Relay Task/Notification if the following are true -
- The user owns the content
- The user has added the external collaborator to content
- The user has to have less than 5,000 external collaborators on items they own
Many customers have a closed folder structure, where one admin user owns all content, so this admin user would be the only one who can create the workflow with external collaborators added to tasks/notifications. For large organizations especially, this is difficult to administer and maintain, so ideally even users who do not…

Secure open link - Require email address verification with one-time password
【Summary】
Please add "Require email address confirmation by one-time password" to the Open Link settings.
This will allow the access statistics to show the email addresses of users who have accessed from the open link, so that you can determine if the access is suspicious or not.【Problem to be solved】
The current open link is not secure enough.
This is because it is not possible to determine who accessed the file.
With the current use, if a user who is not logged in to Box accesses from an open link, the access history only shows the IP address…24 votes -
allow user to set view-only mode
Allow me to read a box document or folder in read-only mode. If I accidentally touch or slip with the mouse - I modify the folder/document. "UNDO" will only do a little bit - but in this case I KNOW I am only browsing a folder that I will be contributing to. It's a bit of a downer to see a document marked as modified today (last modification was a year ago by the document creator) because I missed the CTRL button and typed a "c" into the text. UNDO (CTRL-Z) fixed the doc - but now it looks like…

It would be nice to limit the characters allowed in a text field (either via the markup page or through a parameter in the template tags) (e.g. '[[t|1|m:1|limit:300]]). This way users can't type in an essay, typing OVER existing text already in the PDF

Make API rate limits more sophisticated, especially for large enterprises
When working with a Box Enterprise that has tens of thousands of users, scripts designed to do things like user information syncing, group syncing, or user provisioning/deprovisioning often run into real issues with the Box API rate limits.
Some calls (e.g. downloading or uploading a file) are clearly significantly more resource-intensive than others (e.g. getting a user’s aliases). The method Google has implemented for the Gmail API (see https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota) seems like a really great way to balance the need to protect the back-end systems against the need for increased performance for less-intensive calls. It would be nice…

Box Drive Warning When File Path is too Long
There is a known issue with Box Drive that if a file path is exceeds a character count limit, then the file cannot be opened on desktop, however it can be opened via Box on the web. The issue is, when a user has a file on their desktop, that has a current file path within the character count limits, then moves the file to Box Drive within Windows Explorer and the new path in box exceeds the character limits. As of now, the user can copy and paste into Box Drive and not realize that their new path will…

Modifying Relay AllowList that includes deleted users
If a user previously set in the Relay AllowList is deleted, the deleted user will remain in the list and the error "The specified login is inactive or invalid" happened when I try to save the list.
Even if I click "Save" without editing anything, same error occurs.It is not possible to export the user s of Relay AllowList, and there is no choice but to check each account one by one and deal with it, so I request improvement.

Shared Link Details: Add 'Last Usage' Column
The Shared Link Details report is a great report currently that provides admins a wealth of information when performing an 'inventory' or security review of all existing shared links.
One additional column that would be very helpful to include is a 'Last Usage' column that would provide a date entry for each shared link.
Usage is defined as the last time someone actually used that link in a browser. This is helpful to admins to be able to know if a link is still being used or not (prior to disabling it for security reasons.)17 votes -
Box AI for Hubs for External Users
Currently, in order for an external user to use AI for a Hub they are invited into, the external user's EID must also have Enterprise Plus AND have enabled AI for Hubs.
We would like an option to grant external users AI access if their EID doesn't have Enterprise Plus. Thank you!

Ability to post photos, videos, and hyperlinks in Box Hubs.
While posting the photo and video files is nice, it would be faster to be able to easily look at photos without clicking into their previews. Also, hyperlinks and adding Box shortcut files are a must—we can't currently offer employees a list of helpful external resources in Hubs. (We could provide a PDF/Word doc with all the resource links, but, again, this requires extra steps for the end user.)

Simplify New User Sign-Up
