  2. Customize notifications (frequency and timing) for tasks on Relay workflows

    A key piece of any ECM system is being able to control when and how often a user is notified about a task based on the severity of the workflow. If an approval is required for a mission critical business process that is time sensitive then the creators of the workflow need to be able to create urgency with the notifications in Relay. If this workflow is low priority and they don't want to "cry wolf" then they should be able to customize that it is low priority and maybe on need to be notified once a week etc.

  3. Exempt owners from disable notifications for all collaborators

    Folder owners should be able to exempt themselves when they disable all email notifications for all collaborator in a folder. I still want to receive notifications as owner. Otherwise, the only other option is to have all collaborators manually change their own settings, but this is rather unrealistic

  4. Forward Antivirus Protection notifications to specific definable email addresses

    As of now, only Site Admin and Content Owners will receive notifications from the Box Antivirus protection feature. We would like the ability to send those notifications to definable addresses within our organization. This will ensure our Security Team gets all the proper notifications and not just the Site Admin and Content Owner.

    The work around at the moment is to have the Site Owner setup forwarding Rules in their e-mail application.

  5. The ability to resize or delete the astronomical images on the Relay notifications.

    In its current state, the astronomical image is so large that it is difficult to see the text underneath.
    Since there is no need to display images, we are requesting the implementation of this function.

    現在の状態では天体画像が大きいことで下にある本文の確認がしづらいです。
    画像を表示させる必要性もないため機能の実現を求めます。

  6. Box Relay Task Approval Options

    For the action Assign a Task - Approval Task, there's a section that asks "What happens when this outcome is completed?" If the task is approved, there's no option to select, it's just hard coded in to go to the next outcome. If the task is rejected, you can select options. I would like to be able to select options if the task is approved as well.

    My use case:
    I'm working on a formal approval process in Box using Relay. We need to have a legal review of our templates each year and I'm using a Relay to manually…

  7. Be able to write definition in multiple language (ex.ENG/JP) on "classification" definition field.

    Function request regarding the Definition field of "Classification"
    Would like to enter a description with each language in the "Classification Definition" column.
    Even if English / Japanese can be written together in the current definition column, currently, each lines breaks are not possible. hope to make it possible.

    However, it is in trouble because a line break cannot be made each.

  8. Workflows with external users

    (Japanese follows)
    When an external user is invited to a folder, you want to execute a workflow that specifies an external user.

    Currently, the notification action allows you to create a workflow that specifies an external user.
    Since it is not possible to create a workflow that specifies an external user in the "folder action" > "Add collaborator" etc., I would like to see the function improved so that external users can be specified in "Add Collaborator" and other actions.

    フォルダに外部ユーザが招待されている状況で、外部ユーザを指定したワークフローを実行したい

    現状、通知アクションでは外部ユーザを指定したワークフローが作成可能。
    フォルダアクション>「コラボレータの追加」などでは、外部ユーザを指定したワークフローが作成できない為、「コラボレータの追加」とそれ以外のアクションでも外部ユーザが指定できるよう機能改善してほしい。

  9. Additional control over Account Lockout

    When a user exceeds the failed login amount threshold, it would be very helpful for there to be an account lockout triggered along with the notification email that would not require an admin to manually set the account to inactive.

  10. Events API - Add Policy Name to CONTENT_WORKFLOW_UPLOAD_POLICY_VIOLATION

    Currently, when an Upload Policy violation occurs, Box reports on that violation in 3 ways:
    1. Email notification
    2. Admin Console -> Reports tab
    3. Events API

    In the email notification and admin console->reports, Box provides the policy name for which the violation is occurring. However, Box does NOT include the policy name in the Events API entry, which causes a problem when we are pulling logs (via the Events API) into external reporting/SIEM tools like ArcSight/Splunk.

    Request: Add 'Policy Name' to the CONTENTWORKFLOWUPLOADPOLICYVIOLATION entry in the Events API (to reach parity with the native Admin…

    This proposed enhancement to email notifications and to custom branding is a reasonable idea, but an area that we are unlikely to invest in this year.

  12. Email notifications

    It appears that as an Admin, I am unable to set up email notifications for my outside users. I was able to set up email notifications for outside users when we used Sharefile. My outside users expect me to set up these email notifications. It would be nice if Box had the same feature. Thanks!

  13. URGENT | Warnings on breaching Box's recommended limits

    Hi Team,

    I would like to have a UI Notification implemented in Box, which would warn the user when they reach the Box's recommended limits with respect to
    1. items per folder
    2. total items per user
    3. collaborators per folder.

  14. Notify Box app users to refresh for latest updates on Content Preview and Content Explorer UI elements

    Currently, when Box app users access files through the Content Explorer and the Content Preview UI elements, there is no visible indication that one or more files have been updated simultaneously by managed users.
    As a result, users may not be aware of the latest changes or modifications made to the files.

    To ensure that app users benefit from new updates, I kindly request the implementation of a notification message within the Content Preview and Comtent Explorer elements. This notification message would dynamically appear whenever one or more files have been updated, prompting app users to refresh their page to…

  15. URL to open folder or file by full English path name.

    Box allows me to create named folders and files. Box SHOULD allow me to use a URL to get there? The File ID is visually useless. Box should store the English name as an alias to the ID -- and allow this feature. I am astonished this wasn't a base product feature. I'm also astonished you haven't added it as it's clear in the feedback from others it's WANTED. Shame on Box for not providing this feature.

    In the meantime, I'll be forced to find another cloud-based file storage solution.

  16. Merging Content of two Folders with Same Name and Same files

    Merging the Content of two Folders with the same name and the same files gives the option of overwriting the destination or not. This will be very useful if you have duplicate content and want to save time and storage.

  17. Relay to outside email

    I am attempting to create a workflow based on the uploading of documentation into a specific folder that will trigger a notification to our client to retrieve this documentation. However, it will not allow me to add this person although they are currently a contributor to the parent folder.

  19. PLEASE give me option to turn off notifications for a specific file or folder

    PLEASE give me option to turn off notifications for a specific file or folder.

    Commented on a file, and now I'm getting swamped by notifications.

    I'd like to mute notifications on this specific thread, similar to what I can do in FB or Slack.

  20. Ability to send Shield alerts to a Pager Duty email address for email integration.

    It looks like I'm only able to notify users who are Shield co-admins whenever an alert is created. I would like to send alerts to a Pager Duty email address for email integration.

    I would like to avoid creating a separate user for the purposes forwarding emails to pager duty. I would also like to avoid creating a forwarding rule on my own inbox.

    Is it possible to send Shield alert notifications directly to non-user email addresses? If not, is this something the Box team is working on or can consider implementing?
