Enable Metadata Cascading when using the Add Metadata outcome
Description
Allow users to enable metadata cascading when applying the Add Metadata outcome to a folder. This should be a user-selectable option in the workflow builder (for example, a simple "Enable metadata cascading" checkbox for this outcome).
Business Value
Many document-centric processes follow the same pattern:
- A user submits a request through a form.
- A workflow automatically creates a dedicated folder for that request.
- Documents related to the request are uploaded into that folder over time by multiple users.
While workflows can already create the folder and assign metadata to it, there is currently no way to enable metadata cascading…

Global filter
Box APPs would benefit from a global filter (a filter on the APP's main page). This filter would allow to see the dashboard in context:
Projects. The app displays all projects, but allows you to drill into individual projects.
Manufacturing: see an overview of all machines and a global status, but allowing to dive into any machine.
HR: getting an overview of how your hiring is doing globally, while also being able to look at individual countries / cities (multiple fields).
The way APPs is organised right now we have to create an APP for each of these views, making…

Saved Prompts Cannot Be Used Mid-Session
Currently, saved prompts in Box AI Home can only be selected at the beginning of a session. Users cannot introduce a saved prompt during an active conversation, preventing them from applying it to the existing session context.

Automatically resize input text within defined Box Sign text fields.
Allow text fields added to a Box Sign document to automatically resize the text based on inputs. When used as form fill fields for signers/approvers, text will wrap or extend outside of defined field size. Additional logic to notify users who are inputting text that their text cannot shrink/scale appropriately would also be beneficial.

Support PIV/CAC Authentication for Box Sign Ready-Sign Links
I am requesting that PIV/CAC authentication is supported in Ready-Sign links.
Without PIV signature requests via Ready-Sign link or Automate, federal agencies are left to templates and manual signature requests. This prevents them from implementing broad, end-to-end workflows that involve compliant signatures (e.g., onboarding and offboarding).

Box Drive built with the new architecture to not move deleted files/folders to the local Recycle Bin
For the new-architecture Box Drive, we have observed that deleting the following types of items primarily moves them to the local and Box Web trash.
・Folders with online status
・Folders with downloaded status
・Files with downloaded statusOne of the reasons customers choose Box is to improve security (prevent information leaks), and they expect to operate in a way that “data is stored locally as little as possible.”
However, once items are moved to the local Recycle Bin, the deletion policies configured for the trash in Box are no longer applied to those items.We feel that the fact that…

Box Shield MIP Integration with GCC High
For customers with GCC High environments (Microsoft), Purview is not currently able to be integrated using the Box Shield integration (as it can be with the commercial version of Purview) to map the MIP Sensitivity labels with Box Shield's classification labels. We would like to see Box Shield to be able to integrate with Purview when it lives in Microsoft's non-commercial environments, including GCC High and DOD.

Enhanced Hide Function for Drive Folders/Files
Starting with Box Drive v2.48, it has become possible to hide folders and files. This is a very welcome feature.
However, when the “Show hidden files” setting is enabled in File Explorer, even if you use the folder hide function in Box Drive, the target folder is only grayed out on the screen and not completely hidden.
Users would be pleased if a more complete hide function were implemented.
エクスプローラーで「隠しファイル」の表示設定を行っているとき、Box Driveでフォルダ非表示機能を利用しても、画面上で対象のフォルダがグレーアウトするだけで完全には隠れないため、より完全な非表示機能が実装してほしい。

Want to allow users with 0byte allocated storage to save Box AI Home responses.
We understand that Box AI Home answers cannot be saved when "Allocated Storage" is set to 0 bytes or insufficient — by design.
However, our company requires end users to have 0 bytes of allocated storage, which prevents them from saving AI Home answers. We request that this limitation be removed to improve usability.「割り当て済みストレージ」を0バイトに設定 or 十分な容量が割り当てられていない場合、Box AI Homeの回答を保存できないことはBoxの仕様と伺っています。
しかしながら会社の都合上、エンドユーザーには「割り当て済みストレージ」を0バイトに設定しており、結果としてAI Homeの回答が保存できません。
利便性向上のため、「割り当て済みストレージ」を0バイトのユーザーでも回答を保存できるようにしてほしいです。7 votes -
Retrieve logs of users who uploaded files via the file request link
The file request link is extremely useful in our daily operations. It is a great feature that allows users without a Box account to upload files to Box. However, under the current specifications, if logging in to Box is not required in the settings, no information about the person who uploaded the file via the file request link is recorded in the logs. This poses a significant problem from an audit and compliance perspective.
For example, if a user enters their email address in the email field at the time of upload, it would be very helpful if that email…

Removal of BoxAI’s limits or publication of the limit values
There is a daily usage limit for BoxAI, and this has led to complaints from within the company.
As an administrator, I do not know the limit values and am unable to respond.
Can anything be done about this situation where internal users cannot use it freely?
At the very least, please publish the limit values or release a new plan without limits.4 votes -
I want to use the form trigger variables even outside of the [Request Signature] action.
Currently, when [Form Submitted] is used as the trigger in Box Automate, the [Request Signature] action can use variables from the form trigger. However, these variables cannot be used in other actions, such as [Task Action].
If form-trigger variables could be used in other actions as well, the range of automations that can be achieved with Box Automate would expand further, making it much more convenient. We kindly ask you to consider this enhancement.（日本語）
現在、Box Automateで [フォームを送信] をトリガーとした場合、[署名をリクエスト] アクションではフォームトリガーの変数を利用できます。しかし、[タスクアクション] など、その他のアクションではこれらの変数を利用できません。
他のアクションでもフォームトリガーの変数を利用できるようになると、Box Automateで実現できる自動化の幅がさらに広がり、大変便利になると考えています。ご検討をお願いいたします。4 votes -
Multilingual support for BoxStatus
Hello Box Team,
I would like to suggest an improvement for the Box Status page.
As Box is a global service, it would be ideal if the Status page itself could support multiple languages and provide a more localized experience for customers around the world.
However, even if full localization is not currently planned, I would greatly appreciate an improvement to the way timestamps are displayed.
At present, incident updates and maintenance notifications are shown only in PDT/PST. For customers outside North America, this requires manual time conversion every time we review a status update. For example, users in Japan…

Need for User Self-Removal from the Suppression List
Currently, only Box administrators or co-admins can remove email addresses that have been added to the Suppression List.
Furthermore, users cannot tell whether they are on the Suppression List and have no choice but to contact an administrator.
To reduce the burden on administrators, it is desirable that users be able to remove themselves from the Suppression List.
(In Japanese)
現在、Suppression List に登録されたメールアドレスの解除は、Box 管理者または共同管理者にしかできません。
また、ユーザーは自分が Suppression List の対象になっているか分からず、管理者に連絡するしかありません。
管理者の負担を減らすためには、ユーザー自身が Suppression List から自分の登録を解除できることが望ましいです。12 votes -
Controlling the Visibility of External Collaboration Folders in Box Drive via Admin Settings
We would like administrators to be able to control the visibility of external folders in Box Drive via the Admin Console.
[Background]
When using Box Drive, the following security risks exist:
・Risk of data leakage due to user error: Files or folders may be accidentally dragged and dropped into external collaboration folders.
・Risk of ransomware spreading to external tenants: If a user falls victim to ransomware, the encryption attack may also affect external collaboration folders belonging to other companies.[Details]

Add the "specify when started" option for manual start task automations
In Box Relay, for a manual start relay that assigns a task, you had the option to specify the assignees at the time of the relay being started. This option doesn't appear to be possible in Box Automate. Our users are asking that this be added back in. Thanks

We want to apply classification labels using Automate without granting Editors permission to change labels
In Relay, we had a workflow where users would manually trigger a workflow, assign an approval task, and upon approval, automatically change or assign a classification label. This was done to assign a label indicating that the content is ready for public release, enabling external sharing.
However, this cannot be achieved with Automate workflows. Upon checking the specifications, we found that unless the Admin Console allows Editors to modify classification labels, Automate workflows cannot assign labels. In our organization, we have only permitted Co-owners and Owners to change labels. If we allow Editors to change labels, general employees would be…

Sign Template Recovery
If a file used for a Sign template is accidentally deleted and restored, the sign template is not restored even though the file is. The sign template should be restored along with the file instead of having to redo the entire template.
