  1. Report on downloaded files across several folders

    We would like to generate a report which shows how many files were downloaded across several folders within Box. We have a team that is looking to monitor the usage of certain files which are saved in Box across a number of individual client folders. We can see the downloads of individual reports through Box online, but there are a few hundred folders and that would be too time consuming to go through individually.

  2. Invited folders cannot be consolidated by collaborator

    I am invited to view individual accounts by an outside company. I would like to be able to move these folders into a “company A” folder so that they are not at the top level of my box drive.

  3. Shield Classifications Available for Certain Folders Only

    Currently, if you create a classification label it will be available to apply to any folder or file. The ask is for the option to make the classification label available to apply in only certain folders.

    An example of a use case is for an ITAR classification label - users should only apply this label to content in a contained ITAR folder. While in other folders they should not see the option to apply this label in the dropdown.

    Auto classification policies currently has a similar feature, 'Folder Criteria'. For the classification labels, it would be great to have…

  4. Setting Folder Autodelete via API

    The automatic deletion date of a folder can be set from the web screen, but it seems that it cannot be set from the API.

    Could you please provide the ability to set this date from the API?

    We have a process that automatically creates thousands of folders using the API, but since it is not possible to set an automatic deletion date, a large number of past folders will continue to remain.

  5. The ability to check the characters when setting/typing the password for shared link and account

    When we're entering passwords of shared links and accounts, we want to check it by seeing the actual characters.

    For example, this request has been achieved on the following page:

    https://account.box.com/signup/n/personal

    Is it possible for you to implement the same button in the account ligin page and the shared link setting window?

  6. Ability to Define which folders/files are included in Box AI answer

    Admins have the ability to define which files and folders are included in Box AI.

    For example - at our oganization there are multiple SOPs and other operational documents that are useful but saved in different root folders.

    This would enable admin/folder owner to determine if folder/file is to be included into Box AI Queries

  9. Shared Box Sign group status dashboard / Ability to share sign requests with team members

    When sending out Box Sign requests we need the ability for multiple team members to check in on how current Box Sign requests are progressing. They can't be tied to just the sender as sometimes staff work part-time and another staff member has to go in and push the signature along.

    It would be amazing to see Box Sign have access to groups for a group based dashboard e.g. Finance Team. That would enable everyone in the group to go in and track the current Sign requests and push them along when another team member isn't around to do so.

  10. Custom error messages when shared links cannot be accessed

    【Request】
    I'd like to be able to customize the error message when I can't access a shared link in Enterprise settings.

    【Current Status and Issues】
    The current error message is
    "This shared file or folder link has been removed or is unavailable to you.
    Think it's a mistake? No worries: Just email the owner or get in touch with Box support. We're here to help."

    However, it doesn't help with the next step at all.

    Even if the owner or administrator is contacted, they often can't identify the file and can't provide any support.
    Also, it is not always possible…

  11. Make the new "Copy Shared Link" pop-up window optional

    This new pop-up window slows down my workflow. I understand some people benefit from it, but please consider a setting to disable the window for fast, high-volume workers.

    **I am one of the top Box users with my company and we spend a lot of money with you.

    Hi everyone,


    We've heard your feedback and added a new setting to manage the sharing window in version 2.55. You can access it by opening the Box Drive Search UI, clicking Settings, and selecting Preferences.


    Thank you for your patience as this update rolls out to enterprise users.



  12. Hide Folder (and nested folders) in UI

    When using Box for NetSuite V1 we were able to hide the entire NetSuite folder from the UI so that users could only access the content via the NetSuite UI. V2 doesn't have this option, which means that users can see any folders they were ever able to access in NetSuite, even if their permissions have since been restricted.

    We should be able to have folders accessible through the NetSuite UI only.

  13. List of All Folders that I own.

    New Feature to allow individual users to pull a Report of all the folders that they personally "Own".

    The reasoning behind this is due to the fact that Lotus Notes Teamrooms are being sunset, and BOX is becoming the repository for many Accounts Contractual Data. From a business controls perspective, "Owners"must now must ensure that they "Secure" confidential contractual data via folder Settings. Since BOX has been around for some time, we could have access to hundreds of folders, and it is very time consuming to check which are the ones we "Own".

  14. Set specific expiration dates on the different types of shared links.

    You can do it for all in one option but not specifically on one type of shared links. Example just "People with this link"

  15. Report of folders with no content

    Need a report that shows all folders with no content inside. Also need to see the date last modified, and the users associated. Reason being, we need to clean up and archive appropriately for long term scalability. This is specifically related to the salesforce integration.

  16. Select multiple folders as the location filter for Views in Box Apps

    I would like the ability to select multiple folders as the location filter for Views in Box Apps. For example, I may have a project folder with a metadata template cascading to all subfolders, but I only want to see content from 2 out of the 3 subfolders in the View.

  17. Ability to have users enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link without being logged in.

    In the case of a public shared link, there is no way to verify the user who manipulated the file if it was manipulated while the user was not logged in.
    However, we would like to verify by whom the shared file was downloaded.
    Since the file sharing partners are unspecified, we would like to share files via a shared link rather than through collaboration.
    Request the ability to track the operating user by having them enter their name and email address when downloading from a shared link in an un-logged-in state.

    <共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際に名前やメールアドレスを入力できる機能>
    「リンクを知っている全員」に設定した共有リンクの場合、未ログイン状態で操作された場合はファイルを操作したユーザーを確認する手段がありません。
    しかし、共有したファイルが誰によってダウンロードされているか確認したいと考えています。
    ファイルの共有相手は不特定多数のため、コラボレーションではなく共有リンクでファイルを共有したいと考えています。
    共有リンクから未ログイン状態でダウンロードする際には名前やメールアドレスを入力させて、操作ユーザーを追える機能をリクエストします。

  18. Restrict Hub Shared Link Creation to Admins Only

    Many users can access a Hub via its shared link.

    However, because there is currently no way to identify or control users who access via shared links, we would like to only invite required users directly to the Hub and eliminate the risk of anyone else viewing it.

    Under the current behavior, even with the strictest settings, Hub co-owners can still create shared links.

    It would be very helpful to have a stronger restriction so that even Hub co-owners cannot create shared links for Hubs, and only admins (or a similarly restricted role) can do so.

    --
    Hubは共有リンク経由で多くのユーザーがアクセスできます。
    しかし、共有リンクからアクセスしたユーザーを確認し制御する方法が現状ないため、Hubには必要なユーザーを招待してそれ以外の人が見るリスクをなくしたいと考えています。
    現状の仕様では、どんなに強い制限にしてもHubの共同所有者は共有リンクを発行できてしまいます。…

  19. Option for Shared Link Restriction on new links only

    We would like the option to apply the shared link restriction to "new links only" so that current links are not overwritten. This would be similar to the External Collaboration Restriction option to apply to "only new external collaborations"

  20. Sort files/folders/etc by exclusively names

    Right now can only sort files and folders by name separately ie. 04 folder, 05 folder, 01 file, 02 file, 08 link, 09 link etc. Would like them all in a row as they are steps to complete/fill out:
    01 file
    02 folder
    03 link
    04 file
    etc...
