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…4 votes -
Add tag support for OSX files in Box Drive
File color labels (tags) in OSX do not work on Box Drive.
Competing cloud storage platforms (like Dropbox) easily handle this.
In a MacOS team production workflow, tags are essential for production processes. Labels allow effortless communication to other team members on the status of file production. This is an industry-standard way of working which is totally broken in Box Drive.
Please review the many MANY past requests for this feature in these forums. It is a long-standing issue that deserves attention!

multiple users in one document
Create a notification that pops up inside the document when two users have the same document open and when one user makes changes. This feature is in Drop Box and helps cut down on multiple versions of the same document being saved.

Enhanced data loss prevention for MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) mobile apps that integrate with Box.
Currently, users who connected their corporate Box account to a MS Office mobile app, can duplicate files to another storage location. It would be ideal if Admins had the ability to prevent users from duplicating a file originally stored on Box, and preventing them from using the Duplicate feature to copy the file to another storage location like Dropbox/OneDrive.

View notifications in separate webpage
It would be great if we can view all notifications in one webpage the same as you can do with tasks instead of just a drop down window.

Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box
Request for Improvement of the “People with the Link” Feature in Box
We would like to request the following improvements to the “People with the link” option within Box’s Share Link feature, which is used to grant viewing or downloading access to folders or files for organisations or email addresses that do not have a Box account or existing folder permissions.
At present, requiring the link creator to manually set a password is rather cumbersome, and as a result, many users choose not to do so. Since there is no enforcement mechanism, some organisations restrict or even prohibit the use…

word comment email
We wanted Box to send an email notification to a specific collaborator when we comment in Word Online using Word's comment feature. It would be nice if the email includes the link to the comment in the Word Document.

Update invited collaborators expiration settings
Enterprise Settings > Content & Sharing > Invited collaborators expiration settings > Notify affected users
Currently, we know scope of the notification includes co-owner who is collaborated in the folder itself.
But, we would like you to also notify co-owner who is collaborated in upper folder.2 votes -
Avoid signed document shared link expiration notifications on internal-only sign requests
Whenever a document sent via Box Sign is completed, all recipients receive an email containing a shared link to the document. This shared link expires 2 weeks later, generating a "this link is about to expire" for all of the same recipients. These notifications can be annoying, and moreover don't clearly state that it is a signed document link that is expiring (it is just a generic notification).
Our company often sends documents for signature between internal recipients only, who can always access their documents by logging into Box and finding them in the My Requests section (or…

Assign user to item in Box App
As a user, I'd like to be able to assign a specific user in Box App rather than relying on free text or metadata drop down fields so that I can send a notification or task and see additional user information such as email and profile photo

Show Folder Size in GB/MB at root and tree level, inside
To see, at a glance inside the Box.com web interface inspector, the file size allocated to each parent folder and should I click in, each sibling folder. Right now, the interface only gives the number of files, which is deeply unhelpful when trying to assess what folders are taking up how much storage...

Use customer's own email gateway to send email notifications
Many customers in regulated industries do NOT like the fact that email notifications from Box come from the Box Service with a noreply@box.com email address. The emails that Box sends on the user behalf do not go through a customer's email security or e-discovery system thus it creates problems in regulated environment that need to capture ALL communications between internal users and external customers. Box needs to have a configuration where a customer can configure their own SMTP gateway that Box can use to send email notifications with the proper TO and FROM data so they can better…

Multi-user and automatic uploads
Make box access suitable for multi user computers and have mechanism for automatically uploading data.
Use case: Lab equipment used by multiple users producing large amounts of data, automatically uploading this to box so as to limit required user interaction and keep local storage in check. Modern equipment can produce large amounts of data and being able to upload this automatically would help with data management. Requiring user intervention to manage their data is less practical with a very large user base so automating this process would again help with this process.

Split and transfer data to several users when the owner is deleted (including folder assignment)
Hi,
it would be nice if I could split the data of a user to be deleted among more than 1 other user.If, for example, a department head leaves the company and another head takes over the disciplinary part on an interim basis, but the technical issues are still mapped in the department, it makes sense to be able to separate the structures. We are currently transferring the disciplinary page manually.
Best regards,

Ability to specify who will be notified when a password is changed.
As part of security operational reviews, administrators may occasionally check whether passwords have been changed multiple times within the same day, when necessary.
Currently, I believe password change notifications are sent to users with administrative privileges, including group administrators.
For operational reasons, we would like group administrators not to receive these notifications, so we would like to be able to optionally configure the recipients of password change notifications.セキュリティ面の運用見直しの一環で、管理者で同日内に何度もパスワード変更していないか等を必要な時にチェック行うことがあります。
現状、グループ管理者含めた管理者権限のあるユーザー宛にパスワード変更通知が届くと思います。
運用上の理由からグループ管理者がこれらの通知を受け取らないようにしたいため、任意でパスワード変更通知先を設定できるようにしたいです。13 votes -
ChatGPT connector
Current customer using the ChatGPT plug in with Box and need to prevent the ChatGPT API from triggering a piece of content download notification to the owner of the file or folder. Would there be a way to get the text rep without it being treated as a download, or a way to exclude certain actions from the notification stream?

Ability to send custom notifications for new uploads by external users
A customer of ours reached out to ask if it is possible to configure email notifications for a Box folder to send to anyone who uploads a document into this folder. Specifically she is asking whether an automatic reply email can be created and sent to anyone who uploads a file into a folder she owns. This folder is for admissions purposes, so having every uploader adjust their email notification settings is not a practical solution in this case. Since this is not currently an option for Box, I wanted to submit this feedback to suggest for future releases.
