Unmanaged Users Workflow
Easier way to managed "unmanaged users" in the Admin Console.
Currently, you have to run a report to find "unmanaged users" within the customers domain, then move the to managed, wait for their acceptance, then you can delete them.
Current customer is frustrated that this cannot be completed in a seamless manner and will remain out of compliance if their users are not managed correctly. This should be a bit more seamless and less steps.12 votes -

Box Sign Template Tags: Limiting characters
It would be nice to limit the characters allowed in a text field (either via the markup page or through a parameter in the template tags) (e.g. '[[t|1|m:1|limit:300]]). This way users can't type in an essay, typing OVER existing text already in the PDF

Share Box Forms with co-owners
Can you enable the ability to share a Box Form with another user as a co-owner or editor?
For example, if I create a Form, and then leave the company, a co-owner could still use it or make edits.

Request for improvement to the number of users without access displayed on the content card in Box for Teams
If the user has only been invited as a group, they will be counted and shown as "without access" even though they have access permissions because they are not a direct collaborator.
We are aware that this behavior is documented in a support article.
However, the display differs from the actual situation and may induce incorrect responses, as described below.
Therefore, we would like to request a fix so that it shows the accurate number of users without access, whether they are direct collaborators or group collaborators.ex）

Prevent file duplication when using template and file replacement
Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common to…49 votes -
Large user lists don't load in Box Shuttle and there is no way to filter or narrow scope
Build an option to filter on specific source user groups or OU's before trying to generate or load the user list.
Current behavior: Admin account is authenticated and user list is not able to load/populate because there are too many users on the source side.

Allowing Box Drive to be enabled or disabled for specific users or groups
I have found it inconvenient that Box Drive can only be enabled or disabled for all users uniformly.
I believe that allowing Box Drive to be enabled or disabled for specific users or groups would provide more flexible operation. Implementing this feature could enhance security and operational efficiency. I would greatly appreciate your consideration of this request.

Extend expiration dates to be shown in their user activity reports
For external collaborations, it shows the date the collaboration is going to end when it's first set in the user activity to report as
-Action: Collaboration expiration
-Details: To: YYYY-MM-DDHowever when you extend this period, the "To: YYYY-MM-DD" isn't displayed so you don't know until when it's extended until unless you go the individual folder/file itself and look at the "clock" mark manually.
In the report
-Action: Extend collaborator expiration
-Details: [Blank]The customer wants to have a grasp of each expiration dates so they're saying looking at each item manually on Box is impractical.

According to BOX, this is what is being Watermarked “For App Users, it is their user id and current timestamp. The default watermark cannot be customized at this time.”
Right now the Watermark is their “USER ID”, and we need it to be their USER NAME or NAME.1 vote -
About the scope of expiration notice to co-owners.
Currently the expiration of the invited user to a folder is notified to the owner and co-owner of the folder,
however, any co-owner cannot receive the expiration of the invitee of its child folder while owner receives all the expiration notification.We would like to request to cascade the scope of co-owner's privilege to its child folders so that the co-owner of the parent folder can receive all the expiration notification of the descendant folders.

Auto overwrite if the file is uploaded with the same name in the folder via File Request.
In the current spec, the file with the same name in the folder is uploaded via File Request, the file name is automatically changed to containing date and time.
I want the option to overwrite the file when it has the same name of existing files.8 votes -
Transfer Workflow Ownership (not sending it as a template but as a workflow)
Recently the workflow ownership transfer has been released.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402945686291-Transferring-Your-Workflow-to-Another-UserHowever, this is to make the template of the workflow that is needed to be transferred.
There is a need to transfer the actual workflow for below reasons:
- the new owner needs to check the past workflow activity but with the template it is not possible
- since it is a template, the new owner still needs to make the workflow
Thank you for your consideration.

Box Relay: Enable API's so that I can re-assign workflows and/or task ownership to another person
Box Relay: Enable API's so that I can re-assign workflows and/or task ownership to another person at scale.
E.g. if someone is on holiday, sick, or leaves the company, we want to use API's to group together all of their existing workflows and/or tasks, and transfer those to a new person.

Box Drive (Windows) - Remember folder view settings
We’ve been using Box Drive since launch, and it’s been an incredible improvement in our workflow. Only a small issue has made it notably less useful in saving time, and is a known issue documented here (community.box.com/t5/Box-Drive-Known-Issues..)
Our file name and directory lengths are wider than the default for Box Drive/Windows. Normally Windows remembers preferences around column width, but in this case, as you know, Box Drive does not. This causes us to have to manually resize the “Name” field in every folder/directory, every time we access one. Therefore each user is having to do this perhaps dozens of times…

provide option to not automatically accept collaboration invitations when being invited from a user group
I do not have option to not accept the collaboration invitation when content is shared with a user group that I belong to. Is there a way to have the option to not accept the invitation when invited by a user group that I am part of it.
