I'd like the trash bin status to be reverted to the previous specification.
Regarding the BOX trash bin, since around August 12, 2025, all files appear to have the "10 years" policy applied to the trash bin, so I would like you to restore it to the previous state.
Please refer to the attached image for the previous state.12 votes -

Limit the amount of data a user can delete
There have been repeated incidents where users accidentally delete large amounts of data from Box Drive. Each time, administrators are required to restore the data.
However, administrators cannot restore the data until the deletion process is fully completed, and even then, the restoration takes as much time as the deletion, which disrupts business operations.We would like to set an upper limit on the amount of data that users (other than Box administrators and co-administrators) can delete at one time, in order to prevent users from accidentally deleting large amounts of data.
〈ユーザーが削除できるデータ容量を制限する〉
Box Driveでユーザーが誤って大量のデータを削除してしまう事件が繰り返し発生しています。そのたびに管理者がデータを復元する必要があります。しかし、管理者は削除処理が完全に終了するまでデータを復元することができず、さらに復元にも削除と同じくらいの時間がかかるため、業務の妨げとなっています。ユーザー（Box管理者および共同管理者以外）が一度に削除できるデータ容量の上限を設定することで、ユーザーが誤って大量のデータを削除してしまうことを防ぎたいと考えています。

New shortcuts to AI in Box Notes
A new shortcut for Box AI for Box Notes has been released to display the AI prompt field when you enter a space at the beginning of a line in Box Notes.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/42854740437011-New-shortcuts-to-AI-in-Box-Notes
I often type a space at the beginning of a line to lower a paragraph, and I had to clear the AI prompt field each time.
It is a small thing, but it is troublesome, so I would like you to change the specification.
Idea 1: Add configuration items to disable shortcuts in the admin console, registry, etc.
Idea 2: Change the shortcut to something else instead of a blank (e.g. Ctl- blank)A new shortcut for Box AI for Box Notes has been released to display the AI prompt field when you enter a space at the beginning of a line in Box Notes.

I would like to be able to customzie the content preview window side bar
Once Box AI is enabled it takes the top spot as the default sidebar view in the content preview window. Some of my users would like the Activity Tab to load first, as they depend on seeing comments. Being able to customize the sidebar icons would be great

Support Copilot Integration with Multiple Box Environments under a Single Microsoft Tenant
Many enterprises operate under a structure where a single Microsoft tenant is shared, while Box environments are separated by legal entity.
With the current limitation that Copilot × Box integration is restricted to a 1:1 relationship, it is difficult to achieve both group-wide Copilot adoption and proper information governance.
Enabling secure integration with multiple Box environments while maintaining a single Microsoft tenant would unlock significant value, including group-wide AI utilization, greater flexibility for M&A and organizational restructuring, and the avoidance of unnecessary Box environment consolidation or Microsoft tenant separation.＜日本語＞
Microsoft テナントが1つ、Box環境が法人ごとに分かれている企業構成は現実的に多く存在します。
Copilot × Box 連携が 1:1 に限定されている現状では、グループ全体での Copilot 活用や情報ガバナンスの両立が困難です。
Microsoft テナントは共通のまま、複数 Box 環境と安全に連携できるようになることで、グループ横断の AI 活用、M&A や組織再編への柔軟な対応、不要な Box 統合や Microsoft テナント分割の回避といった大きな価値が生まれます。Many enterprises operate under a structure where a single Microsoft tenant is shared, while Box environments are separated by legal entity.

I want to open Box Notes in view-only mode
Currently, in Box Notes, it is possible to switch to view-only mode by changing "/notes/" in the URL to "/file/", but this method is not intuitive for users.
Because it is not easy to open notes in view-only mode, users often accidentally edit the notes. We would like to prevent this from happening.
We would like an option to select view-only mode when opening Box Notes from the beginning. It would also be more convenient if it were possible to bookmark Box Notes in view-only mode.
〈Box Notesの閲覧モードで開きたい〉
現在Box NotesではURLの/notes/を/file/に変換することで、閲覧モードにすることが可能ですが、ユーザーにとっては分かりにくいです。
簡単に閲覧モードで開けないことによって、ユーザーが誤って編集してしまうことが多く、これを防ぎたいと考えています。Box Notesを開くときに、最初から閲覧モードで開くために選択メニューを追加してほしいです。
また、閲覧モードにした状態のBox Notesをブックマークできるようになるとより便利です。19 votes -
Allow scheduling of Folder Insights Reports
The ability to schedule the Folder Insights reports (Collaborations | Folder Activity | Shared Links) would open up greater reporting capability and remove manual work in generating these reports.
This is especially beneficial in enterprises where multiple agencies' content is stored, with different agencies having different reporting requirements (i.e. weekly auditing of external collaborators on their content)

Exclude Specific Content from Box AI
As a law firm we need to segregate certain client data from the ability to use Box AI due to legal agreements in place with their clients to not be able to use AI on their data. Currently we would need to turn off Box AI on the whole account in order to achieve this requirement, which is not ideal.

Enhancement of the content sorting feature in Hub
Currently, when placing multiple pieces of content in Hub, you can manually change their order, but it would be more convenient if sorting could be made easier.
We would like to be able to sort multiple pieces of content placed in Hub all at once, in ascending or descending order, by size, file name, update date, etc.
〈Hubのコンテンツ並び替えを強化してほしい〉
現在、Hubに複数コンテンツを配置するとき、手動で順番を入れかえることができますが、もっと簡単に並び替えができると便利です。Hubに配置している複数コンテンツに対しサイズやファイル名、更新日などを昇順/降順で一括で並び替えを行いたいです。

Enable a Group Membership Admin role, which allows add/remove members of a Box group, without enabling modifications to the group.
Dear Box Product Owner,
This request proposes a new "Group Membership Admin" role within Box Groups to improve access control management, particularly for folders containing sensitive information, and to streamline compliance with regulatory requirements.Problem:
Currently, Box Groups are a valuable tool for managing entitlements to folders, especially those containing highly sensitive content. Integrating Box Groups with IAM tools like SailPoint enables efficient access provisioning, access reviews, and adherence to FFIEC and other regulatory standards. By managing access through groups, we can ensure that all collaborators on sensitive folders are added via controlled group memberships.However, the existing "Group Admin" role grants broad permissions that are not always necessary or desirable for folder owners who simply need to manage group membership. Folder owners require the ability to add and remove members from a group to grant/revoke access to the sensitive information within their folders. Granting folder owners full "Group Admin" rights exposes the group to unintended modifications, such as changes to the group's folder associations, which compromises the integrity of the group's defined access scope. Maintaining a clear and consistent understanding of which groups have access to which folders is crucial for effective access reviews and overall security governance.
Proposed Solution:
We propose introducing a new role, tentatively named "Group Membership Admin," with the following limited capabilities:
• Add Members to a Group: This function would allow the designated user to add new members to a specific Box Group.
• Remove Members from a Group: This function would allow the designated user to remove existing members from a specific Box Group.This new role would explicitly exclude the ability to:
• Modify the group's name or description.
• Associate the group with new folders.
• Remove the group's association with existing folders.
• Delete the group.
• Change other group settings beyond membership.Benefits:
• Enhanced Security and Compliance: By limiting the scope of permissions, the "Group Membership Admin" role minimizes the risk of unintended changes to group configurations and ensures that access controls remain aligned with security policies and regulatory requirements.
• Improved Access Management: Folder owners can efficiently manage access to sensitive content by controlling group membership directly, without requiring intervention from IT or security administrators.
• Clearer Entitlement Definitions: Maintaining the integrity of group-to-folder associations ensures that access reviews are accurate and reliable, providing a clear understanding of who has access to what.
• Streamlined Workflows: Delegating group membership management to folder owners empowers them to respond quickly to changing access needs, improving overall operational efficiency.In conclusion, the introduction of a "Group Membership Admin" role would significantly enhance our ability to manage access to sensitive information within Box, improve compliance with regulatory requirements, and streamline access management workflows. We believe this feature enhancement is crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of our Box environment.

Tansfer Form Ownership
I would like the ability to transfer forms to other users. Reasons below:
If employees are going on extended leave or parental leave and someone else is in charge of managing these forms.
If initial set up is completed by an admin but then continually managed by another team.
I am told form ownership transferring will be available only on deletion of a user account in a future release but would like it to not be reliant on the deletion of a user.

Enable Reliable Exports for Large amount of Content
When there’s a large amount of content, the folder and file report export gets canceled. Please make it possible to complete the export.
If exporting everything at once is difficult, splitting is fine—please allow selecting multiple folders and batching the export instructions.
大量のコンテンツがあるとフォルダとファイルレポートの出力がキャンセルされてしまいます。最後まで出力できるようにしてほしいです。
すべてを一括で出力するのが難しい場合は、分割でも構いません。複数のフォルダを選択して、出力指示をまとめて実行できるようにしてください。10 votes -
Default Search Everywhere
While I understand the need to search only in a folder, my company uses the search everywhere function way more.
Is there a way to make the search "everywhere" option the default instead of search "only in this folder"? It slows us down so much right now having to switch it to find a different folder without going back to the home page, or switching the search feature.

Box AI does not recognize text in image-based PDFs
Thank you for releasing Box AI for free.
I am currently using Box AI with the feature enabled. It successfully recognizes text in document PDFs and image files (PNG, JPG, etc.), but it does not recognize text in image-based PDFs.
When I take a screenshot of the content in an image PDF and save it as an image file (PNG, JPG, etc.), Box AI is able to recognize the text. This suggests that the issue may be related to the file format.
If Box AI could also recognize text within image-based PDFs, it would greatly improve usability. I would appreciate your consideration of this enhancement.

Automatic Box Canvas Creation Based on Instructions to Box AI
Currently, Box Canvas provides templates, but users still need to create the content themselves each time, which can be burdensome.
To further reduce user workload, I would like to request a feature that allows Box AI to automatically generate a Box Canvas output based on user instructions.

現在、Box Canvasにはテンプレートが用意されているが、ユーザー自身が毎回コンテンツを作成する必要があり、負担が大きいです。

Box Forms – Add internal-only / scoped access controls for Form links (security & compliance)
Customers need the ability to restrict Box Form links to internal, authenticated users (and ideally specific users/groups), instead of only “anyone with the link.” Current behavior conflicts with stricter security postures and makes Forms hard to adopt for internal project and regulated use cases.
Background / Use Case
Customer is using Box Relay + Box Forms as part of internal project workflows:Workflow trigger: Form submission (Relay)
Outcome: e.g., DocGen or other internal automation
They want to present Forms to internal project teams only and treat them as an internal front end to Box workflows.
Today, the Form sharing model exposes a shared link that can be configured at admin level to allow “anyone with the link” or require a Box login, but there is no way to scope the Form link to:
“People in your company” only, or
A specific set of users / groups, similar to folder and file sharing.

Custom Branding - Embeddable Box AI for Hubs
Please add custom branding options to the new Embed Hub / AI Chat Widget feature. Creating simple hub-grounded chatbots that can be embedded in intranet sites are powerful but for some customers require that they can control the branding like text and colors to stay within guidelines, for instance: instead of the default "Welcome to Box AI" text and logo.
