  2. Use a non-public URL through Box to a google slide

    Currently there is no functionality to insert a video with a non-public URL into a Google Slide through Box, where on Google Drive that functionality exists.

  3. Ability to exclude syncing certain files by type.

    Box Drive - exclude syncing certain files by type. I use several software that use this lock file approach and the lock files should NEVER be synced. (sometimes for size reasons, sometimes for frequent uploads and deletes)

  4. Box AI

    box AI for meeting transcripts

    Will Box AI have capability to capture speech and write into Box Notes? We use Box Notes for all our internal meetings so having Box AI in Box Notes is great but could it also capture the meeting discussion and create a full transcript of the meeting? Maybe via Box Mobile or using Zoom integration with Box? Thinking similar to GONG call recordings.

  5. Changing default columns view in File Explorer with Box Drive - Move or hide sync status

    The recent 2.48.250 release has forced a new Sync column in File Explorer. This new column is fixed in position and can't be hidden. I, for one, don't care to have this column take us space in the Explorer as I have a smaller laptop screen.

    When you select the column and hide in Explorer, it shows up at the next refresh back in the same position.

    The integration with File Explorer should follow Windows 11 preferences and be adjustable just as OneDrive is.

  6. Box Tools install to be shown as "Box Edit" instead of "Box Tools"

    While I understand the Box Tools installer also contains the Box Local Com Server application, it is there to support Box Edit so labeling the entire installation more explicitly as Box Edit, instead of Box Tools, will be more clear.

  7. I want to set the file update interval to every 5 seconds.

    Box Drive accesses the BOX servers every second, so 10 million access logs are logged per month. To control this, we would like to be able to set the update time of files and folders.

  9. Allow for use with disaster loss prevention (DLP) programs like those offered by Symantec.

    DLP works by whitelisting specific device IDs. However Box Drive does not make a fixed device ID.

  10. Request for a Box AI Add-on for Desktop Applications

    Dear Box Support Team,

    I would like to submit a suggestion regarding the enhancement of Box AI functionality.
    I believe it would be highly beneficial to offer a Box AI add-on that can be used directly from desktop applications. For example, it would be extremely helpful if users could request Box AI—rather than Copilot—to analyze an Excel sheet that is currently open in the desktop version of Excel.

    In our company, many users primarily work with Box Drive, and as a result, adoption of Box AI—which is currently limited to the web interface—has been limited.
    If Box AI could…

  11. Switch to Cloud File API for Drive to solve the Icons not showing issue

    Like many users I found that the status icons disappeared in Explorer after starting an addition cloud service on Windows 11. This issue is well documented here: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195513-Icons-Do-Not-Appear-In-Box-Drive-or-Box-Sync-on-Windows

    I would like to suggest utilizing the newer "cloud files API" provided by Microsoft that is used by OneDrive to move the icons to a status category rather than icons on the file thumbnails/icons.

    The documentation can be found here; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/cfapi/build-a-cloud-file-sync-engine

    Thank you for your consideration.

  12. Ability to control roll-out of Box apps

    Right now, updates to apps like Box Drive roll-out in a phased approach without any admin control. That means that I have some users on one version and some on another... and the manual download version is the old version so I can't force-update anyone who is having issues and needs to take advantage to a bug-fix version.

    If this is difficult, then just post the current/new version as the manual download - problem solved!

  16. Box Sign for Autodesk Integration

    Build a productized, out-of-the-box Box Sign integration for Autodesk. This will allow customers to replace current eSignature integrations with Box Sign without bespoke iPaaS, custom scripting, or one-off engineering, preserving user experience and automation while reducing costs.

    - Creates Box Sign envelopes via API from Autodesk-generated documents.
    - Subscribes to Box Sign webhooks for lifecycle events and updates Autodesk objects.
    - Transfers signed artifacts into Autodesk commitment attachments via Autodesk APIs.
    - Ensures attachments continue to sync to Box files.

  17. Check prerequisite before installation

    When running Box Drive without installing Universal CRT, Drive would show an error message "Failed to execute script bfd_main" which is difficult to understand what went wrong.

  19. LocalSystem sees current user's Proxy settings during automatic Box Tools update

    Box Tools Automatic Updates:"Box Edit Upgrade Service", please make sure that LocalSystem refers to the current user's Proxy settings as well as Box Drive automatic update.

    If the logon of "Box Edit Upgrade Service" is LocalSystem, the automatic update of Box Tools will fail. By changing the logon of "Box Edit Upgrade Service" from LocalSystem to the current user, communication via Proxy will be possible and the update will be successful. Also, by setting the Proxy setting equivalent to the current user for LocalSystem with the following command, Box Tools will be updated automatically.

  20. Box for Teams Integration for Private Channels

    Today, Box for Teams Integration does not support Private Channels.
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044673394-Box-for-Teams-FAQ

    Many customers are using Private Channels and need full integration between Box and Microsoft Teams. We do want Microsoft and Box to work together to improve it.

    This limitation is due to Microsoft’s platform not allowing integrations to surface as messaging extensions (Box icon to upload and share documents). Until Microsoft supports this for third parties, Box is unable to deliver this functionality. We are working with Microsoft but there is no timeline for delivery at this point.
