  1. Improve Box Drive memory usage

    Box recommend 4GB of RAM as minimum system specifications. But 4GB of RAM is not enough since Box Drive tends to use more than 1GB memory when a user open folder which has a lot of items. Therefore the fetching function should be improved to run efficiently on 4GB of RAM

  2. Email Notifications for Expiring External Collaborators

    In addition to the owner of the folder receiving a notification that a collaboration is expiring, the user who initiated (invited) the collaborator, and the collaborator themselves receive notifications.

  3. Create shared link to a nested page in a Box Hub

    Our Box Hubs audience consists of mostly external partners, so we design our Box folder structure and Box Hubs with a novice user in mind. For a critical marketing campaign, I have created a nested page in our main partner shared Hub, but I don't have the ability to create a shared link for just that page that I can post in a call out on our separate partner-specific "sub Hubs." My callout includes instructions to look for the page on the left nav, but it would be nice to be able to link directly to the nested page.

  4. Export menu of the Access Statistics for non-administrators

    【Request】
    I would like you to make the access statistics export menu available to non-administrative users.
    I think this can be achieved by allowing the user to select the destination folder after clicking the export menu.

    【Current status and issues】
    Currently, only co-administrators or administrators who have the authority to output reports can export access statistics.
    General users other than administrators can check the access statistics, but cannot export them to a file.

    The PR department has voiced the desire to export access statistics to a file.
    However, we do not want to give them co-administrator privileges because…

  5. access Deny Authority

    The permissions of the parent folder are inherited by the subordinate folder, but I want to be able to add a setting to deny access only to specific users or groups in the subordinate folder. Or I want to be able to set the permission settings so that they are not inherited by subordinates. This is a function that can be realized with existing file servers.

    上位フォルダの権限が下位フォルダへ継承されますが、下位フォルダにおいて、特定のユーザーやグループに対してのみアクセス拒否する設定を追加できるようにしたい。もしくは権限設定を下位に継承しないようにする設定ができるようにしたい。既存のファイルサーバーでは実現できている機能

  6. View all shared links for a user

    Similar to the ability to view favorites and trash on the left-hand side, a view to see current shared links with columns for date shared, date expiring, and who can view it (anyone, company, collaborators)

  7. Allow users to set Sort Preferences

    Users should be able to save default sort preferences.
    Currently I see "Least Recently Updated" documents first, which is never helpful.
    I have to manually re-set the sort preference in every folder I work in.

  8. Box Hub Image Previews for External Users

    Image previews in a Box Hub are not available unless logged in. We love the Box Hubs internally and would love for them to be as helpful and useful for non-users.

  10. Image Shared Link Permissions should Match the Box Note's Shared Link Permission

    For example, when a Box Note's shared link is set to 'people with the link', all images in the Box Note should also automatically be updated to be 'people with the link' links.

    The current issue is that when I set a Box Note's link to 'people with the link' but my company's shared link default is 'people in your company', all the embedded images in the Box Note are still set to 'people in your company', meaning if a non-authenticated user accesses the 'people with the link' Box Note link, they'll see 'insufficient privileges' for all the images in…

    Thank you for the feedback. We understand that the current permissions behavior for Box Notes images is not necessarily intuitive, and are actively looking into ways to improve that user experience. We don’t yet have a timeline for delivery, but will update here when its available.

  11. Add support in Box UI Elements for users to rename files before upload is completed in mobile/embedded experience

    This enhancement would improve document capture workflows where meaningful filenames are needed at the point of upload for easier identification, retrieval, and downstream usability. Today, the lack of rename-during-upload support creates friction for mobile use cases, reduces efficiency when many similar files are uploaded, and can force teams to rely on custom upload logic instead of standard Box UI Elements.

    Requested enhancement:
    • Allow users to edit filenames before upload commit
    • Ensure the experience works well on mobile form factors
    • Preserve the user-defined filename in Box after upload
    • Optionally support configurable naming rules or validations for…

  12. Notification if an edit is made to a file

    When a user makes an edit to an excel document using Microsoft Excel Online a notification should go out just like the notifications for Download, Upload, Comments, Previews, and Deletes.

  14. A User activity report on folders created only

    We are looking to generate a user activity report on folders created only. Currently, user activity has file management > uploaded as an option which will include files uploaded and folders created but we would just like folders created and not files uploaded.

  15. When selecting text in a Box Note, you get the option to make a comment related to that selection. We want the ability to @mention there.

    You can @mention someone someone in a sidebar comment on a Box Note. You can select text in a Box Note and make a comment related to that selection. But you cannot @mention someone in a comment related to a text selection.

    We have a user group that uses Workfront for that specific functionality but would shift that workflow to Box if this functionality was added.

  19. Please Allow an Approval or Denial workflow for Auto Roll-in user creaiton

    Please allow for Admins to allow or deny auto roll-in requests.

    While I understand we can be notified of user creation and take action from there, it would be more beneficial for organization to approve or deny requests to roll in.

    At the very least, allow us the option to block the requests or have a custom message that directs the user to their helpdesk or IT to get the account permissions. This would seriously help us be more secure while avoiding contract violations.

  20. Provide a way to get a list of DevicePins for a specific Box User using the Box API

    Currently if you want to delete all device pins for a user, you must

    • pull the complete list of device pins for your enterprise
    • seach through the results for a specific user
    • for each device pin found, destroy it.

    It would really help to be able to call
    /enterprises/{enterpriseid}/devicepinners/{userboxid}
    and get the device pins for that user.

    This feature is already available in the GUI.
