1. Add metadata to files uploaded via a box form.

   We are using box forms, doc gen and relay to create construction site walks summaries. We then use Box Extract to add metadata to the summary. Part of the site walk is uploading photos of issues found during the walk. I would like to be able to apply metadata from the summary to any photos uploaded from the same form. It would be things like the Property Name, Date of Site Walk and Who took the photos. Since all of these vary from one site walk to the next, I don't know of a way to, other than manually or with API's, of applying this data to a photo.

2. New Folder Box Keyboard Usage

   With the most recent update, when starting a new folder in the new folder dialogue box that pops up, you now can't start typing immediately in the name field without clicking into it. Also, pressing Enter does not trigger the "create" button like it once did. This makes working in Box much slower since you have to click around to do anything instead of just using the keyboard.

3. Ability to hide date and other metadata for external shares

   When sharing to external users, it would be nice to have the ability to remove the date from view, as it can sometimes be privileged information to see that kind of metadata.

4. Make Move+Copy pop-up default back to the folder you're in

   Up until a couple days ago, when you clicked Move + Copy on a file/folder, the pop-up would load with the current folder you're in, making it very simple to move files up one level (out of their current subfolder). Now, the pop-up defaults to the home screen. So if I want to move files out of one subfolder, I have to navigate through twenty different folders to get back to where I was.

   Please change it back!

5. New Login Custom Logo Display

   A recent Login update has caused Custom Branding Logos to display verry small in all browsers to the point its not readable. I opened a Box support case and after multiple attempts to resize I was told it was working as expected.

   Please upvote this if your custom branding is not correctly sized on the login page so Box can fix this.

   Here is the link to the change that caused this.:

7. Box for Outlook - Default no attachments selected

   When using the Box Outlook app, by default all attachments are selected. I would default to no attachments and require people to select they want to save.

   The main reason is that for EVERY email there is normally MANY image files that make up part of the signature, it is necessary to unselected many more image files than the attachment(s) we want to save.

8. Box for Outlook - Seamless login with SSO

   The Box app in Outlook is currently not a great user experience requiring users to login daily. It should pass existing SSO credentials across and login at least after the first set-up. Look at Asana as an example of how this should work

10. Scheduled Metadata-Based Automation for Document Lifecycle Management

    Today, Relay workflows are primarily event-driven and lack the ability to run on a recurring schedule to evaluate metadata conditions.

    For knowledge management use cases, it would be highly valuable to support:

    Dynamic metadata setting on approval
    When a knowledge article is approved, automatically set a “Next Review Date” based on configurable offsets (e.g., +30, +60, +90 days)

    Scheduled Relay execution
    Ability to run a workflow on a recurring basis (e.g., daily)
    Evaluate metadata fields such as “Review Date” or “Expiration Date”

    Conditional actions based on date evaluation
    If Review Date = Today, trigger actions such as:
    Notify knowledge manager for review
    Move document to a review queue
    Archive or delete outdated content

    This capability would enable proactive knowledge hygiene, reduce manual overhead, and ensure content remains accurate and up to date for AI-driven knowledge platforms

11. Toggle for automatically opening documents in a new tab

    Either allowing Right Click on suggested search bar results or creating a toggle where clicking a document/picture/file/etc opens it in a new tab instead of on the current tab. I am SO tired of hitting the back arrow/duplicating pages when I need to open more than one document at a time

12. Support IAL2/AAL2 Identity Providers as a Box Login

    Box should partner with identity providers like ID.me and Login.gov, allowing for enterprises to ensure a smooth and secure login process for managed users and external collaborators alike . Users should be able to use these credentials to access Box.

    This is especially important to reduce the risk of unverified external collaborators accessing sensitive enterprise content. Ideally, admins can enforce these IdP logins for external collaborators (similarly to how the current 2FA setting for external collaborators works). These two identity providers can require IAL2/AAL2 identity verification and authentication in accordance with NIST 800-63-3 standards.

14. Option to default new Office files to web editor without disabling Box Edit

    Currently, when Box Edit is installed/enabled, newly created Word/Excel files in Box open automatically in the desktop app, interrupting workflows for users who prefer the web editor (like me at SMRU Consulting). Disabling Box Edit fixes this but removes desktop editing entirely, which isn't ideal.

    Requested Feature:

    Add a setting to default newly created Office files to open in Microsoft 365 for Web, while keeping Box Edit active for existing files or manual "Open in desktop" choices.

    Bonus: A prompt on creation ("Open in web / desktop?") for flexibility.

    Why It Matters:

    Streamlines workflows for web-first users without sacrificing Box Edit.

    Prevents unwanted desktop launches, especially with Box Drive installed.

    Improves productivity in enterprise setups like ours (multi-TB marine consulting folders).

    Workaround Issues:
    Disabling Box Edit works but blocks desktop access for Office/non-Office files – not viable for all users.

    Please add this to the roadmap! Happy to provide more details or test betas.

16. Add a feature to enable batch descriptions to be added to multiple files on Box at once.

    Our organisation is using the file description feature to optimise search and give legacy context and crediting to files on Box.

    Descriptions must be added manually to files one at a time. we are uploading hundreds of files at a time, often all with the same description.

    A feature that allows multiple files to be selected and assigned the same description at once would be hugely efficient v the current process.

17. Search sorting - have the possiblity to always list exact matches at the top

    The current Box search (especially when moving files) seems to prioritize folders that do not have the searched for string in their title but are seemingly selected based on recency or usage.

    Many of our teams move files based on a specific string in their title to a specific folder including said string.
    Since those folders are often not touched for a long period of time, the folders do sometimes not show up in search or only all the way down, with seemingly unrelated folders being displayed at the top instead.

18. Forward and Backward Arrows

    I don't think its an Idea, but to move through files the > arrow buttons seem to be backwards. The Left < is to move Foward and the Right > is to move backwards. When I think it should be the other way around for those of us who are use to < to be backwards and > to be forward.

20. Match between Box AI for Hubs answers and reference information

    The reference information displayed in the responses of Box AI for Hubs is sometimes inaccurate, and the links between the response content and the reference information may differ.
    Since I went to the trouble of asking a question, if the link to the file is different, I have to search for the file within Hubs, so I want the accuracy improved so that the answer content and the reference link match.

    -in Japanese-
    Box AI for Hubsの回答で表示される参考情報の精度が低く、回答内容と参考情報のリンクが異なっていることがあります。せっかく質問したのにファイルへのリンクが異なっているとHubsの中からファイルを探さなくてはいけないので、回答内容と参考情報のリンクが合致するように精度をあげてほしい。
