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.
Request to Build a Box Sign Autodesk connector that:
- 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.
- Provide a template-mapping UI in Autodesk and comprehensive admin…24 votes -
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.

Client is a heavy user of Box Notes (for project plans, team meetings, checklists, lists and other). They'd like to be able to assign tasks related to those lists/activities/other from the Box Note to collabs.

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-FAQMany 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.
84 votesThis 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.

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.

[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…

Multiple users being able to update an Excel spreadsheet at the same time. i.e. Shared workbooks. using Box Drive.
This would be a highly advantageous as I believe there are many other customers that would benefit from this.

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.

Box for Office - Access to Collections
Now that we can organise our files in Box using Collections, it would be good to be able to access this functionality in the Office Apps. This is 'mainly' relevant to the Outlook Box add-in that comes as part of Box for Office for when you want to save to Box or insert from Box.
Excel/Word/PowerPoint - I would argue that the best experience is opening from Edge/Chrome using Box Edit.26 votes -

reference point within box note
Option to insert anchor/reference point in a Box Note
Box Notes can be lengthy and would be great to be able to insert an anchor within the Box Note so that when directing someone to that spot, they aren't searching the entire Note to find the spot.26 votes -
Incorporate Box Sign in Box Relay
Including the ability to ask for signatures with Box Sign as an action on Relay would be useful, just as being able to assign a task which is available at the moment. This is vital especially in the case of approvals that need to be legally valid.
24 votesBox Sign is now integrated with Box Relay. We have introduced a New ‘Sign event’ trigger in Relay based on completed / cancelled / expired / declined document status in Box Sign to Select one or many file / folder / task / metadata / notification outcomes in Relay to build downstream workflow. Kindly check out this link for more details.

Box Notes and Collections
The Box Notes interface, at the moment, only works with Favourites. It'll be great if you could choose a collection to put your Box Note into, directly from the Box Notes interface, as opposed to having to navigate to the Box folder where the note is, then select the collection.

To minimize Box Sign being blocked by customers who block app.box.com, Box Sign should have its own unique domain name. Example, sign.box.com.
