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.

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…

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!

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.

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.

Allow email notifications for users within a Group
Enable email notifications for users within a group, specifically when they're invited to a folder. Right now, no email is sent as the invitation is automatically accepted. We would like the users to know when they've been added to a new folder

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?

[Fix] Poor support for moving drive and recognizing existing content
I had to disconnect a drive and Box sync broke and has been a massive pain to get working again. When the drive was reconnected, Box couldn't reuse the old folder, and once it started a new folder, I didn't appear to have the option to change it.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Box sync so I could point it at the original directory it used with all the files still in place. It did not recognize any of the files. Instead, it renamed all the folders, downloaded duplicates of everything, and then ran out of space on my cloud storage…

File Request Notifications when the folder owner is the admin on silent mode
We are aware that users can get notifications for uploads done via File Request Link - However, these notifications are based off the folder owner.
Some enterprises have silent mode enabled on the admin, which suppresses the admin activity. If the admin is the owner of the folder, no notifications will be sent for these file request uploads.
We would like to request a way or setting for the uploads done via file request link, to send a notification - regardless of silent mode.
1 voteWe released a new outcome called “Send notifications” which solves for this request.

I would like an option to increase the 5GB individual file size limit on non-business accounts.
Hi Box Team,
I run a small media production business (of one), and rely on box for sharing video files with clients. I do my best to keep files under the 5GB limit, but occasionally, I need to share longer/larger files. I've asked the sales team about a tiered plan under the personal account options that would allow for an increase on the limit, but at the moment, that option only exists for business and enterprise accounts. The business account tiers don't make sense for me since I only have one employee (there is a three seat minimum that would…

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.

Add "FOLDER.TRASHED" event trigger to Webhooks v2
The existing event trigger "FOLDER.DELETED" only triggers a notification when a folder is permanently removed (deleted from Trash). Currently, there is no option to receive a webhook notification if a folder is sent to the trash. "FOLDER.MOVE" does not capture this action either.

Select user group on BOX Rleay's workflow
When creating a workflow using BOX Relay, groups cannot be set as recipients in the notification options. When notifying a large number of people, it is time-consuming to enter the address for each person, so it would be nice to be able to set groups.

Let sender sign documents created with Ready-Sign Links
Ready-sign links are a great feature, but we need the ability for senders be able to also sign a document that is created with a Ready-Sign link.
For example, if I have a Mutual NDA setup in a Ready-Sign link, I want others to be able to quickly sign this. BUT I also need to sign it myself as the sender.
This would ideally be accomplished by letting me "sign" the document at the time I create it. Or alternatively when someone signs the NDA at the Ready-Sign link, then I am emailed a notification that is ready for me…

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.

Toggle the Activity bar or Side by Side off and On when using an IPAD.
This is regarding the newest version of the IOS APP on an IPAD . When a user is using their IPAD as a laptop or in Landscape mode, the default is to have the Side by Side on. This shows a Blank Activities Pane. It would be great to only show the activities Pane if there are any notes. However the user should have the ability to toggle the bar, and regain the screen real estate.

Email notifications for uploads to a folder are very delayed
We would like to request the email service that is responsible for sending upload notifications to be in real time so we do not waste time having to double check with collaborators if they have uploaded something yet.

Be able to set your personal notifications to also include someone else.
Be able to set your personal notifications to also include someone else.
Many of our users work in teams, so it would be good to allow a user the ability to specify if another BOX user or group should receive the altered notifications that they receive.
