Export of / access to preview image file
I like to create image content descriptions (long text, captions, tags) using computer vision AI models and store the descriptions in Box metadata. Therefore i need to provide the image to an external service. The problem is, that the AI services available through e.g. Box Skills or most other 3rd party tools have a size limit of 20 MB per image. Most images i'm dealing with are much bigger. One option would be to convert these images prior to providing them to an external tool, but Box already has a smaller image which could be used for computer vision purposes – the file which is used in the preview (not the thumbnail). It would be great to get access to this preview file (by API, or by download from the preview screen).

Set the sidebar to be closed by default. The sidebar, document Preview, blocks to much of the screen and cannot be closed in embeds.
Within Document Preview, set the righthand sidebar to be closed by default. Within our Box embed the righthand sidebar covers way too much screen space, limiting the viewing of the document. The sidebar can NOT be closed in our small embed, due to the inability to view the minimize or close button. We need to have a way to close or minimize the sidebar when previewing a document in our small embed.

Enable enterprise 'super' co-admin account to hide or disable Content Recovery tab for specific users
There is a new function Content Recovery, which has specific usage and limitations regarding its use. It would preferable therefore for the enterprise's main admin account (super co-admin) to be able to disable the function for specific (co-admin) users

Redirect external users to Terms of Service acceptance screen instead of error page
Would it be possible to redirect external users who have not accepted the custom Terms of Service to the acceptance screen instead of showing an error page when they access a shared link?
External users who have not accepted our custom Terms of Service see an error when opening a shared link. This confuses users and makes it harder for them to access the content. Redirecting them to the Terms of Service screen would improve the experience and help them complete the access flow smoothly.

Add Support for Python in Excel
I would like to be able to use Microsoft Excel's new Python integration while stored on Box. I have been told that Python in Excel can only be used on content stored in "secure container[s] on the Microsoft Cloud", such as OneDrive, Azure, Sharepoint, and other Microsoft proprietary resources.

Request Signature outcome should have Form Submitter variable
When creating a workflow like the one in the following article, the Request Signature outcome cannot use the form submitter as a signer
Some of our workflows start with a form, use Box Doc Gen to generate a document, which then needs to be signed by the original form submitter. While the Request Signature step can access form variables, it notably does not have access to the Form Submitter.
It would be great if this was exposed as a variable so that the sign request could have the submitter as a signer.
Our current workaround is to add a field to the form to have them type their own email; this works, but is a bit cumbersome.
It's also a little silly, given the warning at the bottom of the form is "Your email address ... will be recorded when you submit". Recorded, yes - but not available for signature!

Allows the report to see the classification labels that have been applied in the past
In the User Activity Report, when a classification label is changed, it is logged. However, it does not record from which label was changed to which label..
One user currently sets the privilege to edit classification labels to editors (general employees). However, the more users with editing privileges, the greater the security risk. The only way to avoid this risk is to limit the scope of editing privileges to the owner or co-owner (superior). In that case, it would be too inconvenient, since it would be necessary to apply to the superior for a change in the classification label.
By making it possible to track which classification labels have been assigned in the past and who assigned them, it is possible to increase the convenience of classification label operation while ensuring security.In Japanese：
過去に適用されていた分類ラベルをレポートで確認できるようにします。
ユーザーアクティビティレポートでは、分類ラベルが変更されるとログに記録されます。しかし、何のラベルから何のラベルになったかは記録されません。
あるユーザーは現在、分類ラベルの編集権限を編集者（一般社員）まで拡大しています。しかし、編集権限を持つユーザーが多ければ多いほど、セキュリティのリスクが増えます。そのリスクを回避するためには、編集権限を所有者や共同所有者（上長）までの範囲に限定するしかありません。その場合、上長に分類ラベルの変更申請を行う必要が出てくるため、あまりにも不便です。
過去にどの分類ラベルが付与されていたか、誰がそれを付与したのかを追跡できるようにすることで、セキュリティを担保しつつ、分類ラベル運用の利便性を上げることが可能になります。In the User Activity Report, when a classification label is changed, it is logged. However, it does not record from which label was changed to which label..

Box Drive folders should automatically refresh when you open them.
When you open a folder in Box Drive, it should automatically refresh that folder. There's no scenario where you're opening a folder and you WANT an older version of it. If you're opening it, you intend to interact with it somehow, and in order to do so effectively you must have the most up to date version of its contents. Manually refreshing is tedious.

Unify Time Zone Handling for Expiration Dates of File Requests and Shared Links
Currently, Box handles expiration dates differently depending on the feature: Shared Links use PST/PDT as the standard, while File Requests rely on the local time zone of the device used to create the link. As a result, even when the same expiration date is set, the actual expiration timing can differ between the two types of links.
Having different time zone behaviors across Box features lacks consistency in implementation and is not intuitive for users. We kindly request that the time zone handling be unified across features.
【In Japanese】
＜タイトル＞
ファイルリクエストと共有リンクの有効期限におけるタイムゾーン仕様の統一を希望＜本文＞
現在、Boxでは「共有リンク」はPST/PDT基準で有効期限が処理される一方、「ファイルリクエスト」はリンク作成時の端末のタイムゾーンに依存して処理されるため、同じ日付を設定してもリンクが無効になるタイミングが異なります。Box の機能間でタイムゾーンの動作が異なると、実装に一貫性がなくなり、ユーザーに混乱を原因となりますので、機能間でタイムゾーンの扱いを統一していただくようお願いいたします。

About the accuracy of Box AI for Hubs
I'm trying out the beta version of Box AI for Hubs.
I expected this feature to be able to combine information from multiple documents within Hubs to generate an answer.
However, at the moment, even though there is relevant information in the documentation within Hubs, only general answers are returned, and no satisfactory answers have been obtained.
As it is, it would be difficult to deploy it internally, so we would like to see further improvements in the accuracy of AI.
Please note that all content is written in Japanese.23 votes -
Request for Additional Output Items in the User Details Report
Could we enable the User Details report to include the user's registration date on Box? Specifically, we would like to propose adding a column titled "User Registration Date."
This information is necessary for user management.
Currently, we have to request this information from Box regularly.
If we could verify it directly in the report, it would eliminate the need for inquiries to you.1 vote -
Expand 1000 character prompt limit
The prompt limit of 1000 characters is way too small for anything but simple requests. Users are unable to feed in much additional data for comparison to the source document, greatly limiting the capability of the tool. Much better results are derived from loading the source document and any other required information into ChatGPT, with a larger and multimodal prompt.

Ability to add a parameter to control the visibility of the zoom button when creating expiring embed links
Most of the time, when viewing on mobile, it appears that the zoom button doesn't do much when pressed. Only when zoomed out does it seem to fit the document to the screen. Raymond James would like the ability to disable this when creating expiring embed links.

Additional Passwords / Biometrics
I'd like to add an additional layer of security on folders in Box by password protecting them. We are using a mobile devices a lot - so it seems like a natural added layer of security similar to how Apple offers locked notes would be very helpful. If it was a password or an additional biometric check - that would be great!

box hubs
collaborating with external folks is still very clunky and inefficient at times. I hope as it continues to be refined and updated, they are able to resolve some of those limitations.
External collaborators should be able to access content on hubs as editors.1 vote -
No 'Resume Signing' option for ready-sign link initiator, only access code
Streamline the flow for email verification when using Ready Sign Links:
Customer wants all RSL to use email verification whereby the end user must enter the code, and NOT be able to use the 'Resume Signing' option that's included in the verificaiton code email.Having both options in this process is confusing to end users. Also the two options are not documented on support.box.com - only option documented is where the end user is expected to add the verification code -- no mention of bypassing that / removing that step when choosing to resume signing via the email.
Again, the desired output is for the user to only be able to enter the code in the window where the prompt is vs (seemingly) bypassing that and using the RESUME Signing button that's included in the verificaiton code email.

Box Hubs for CANVIEWPATH users
Users with CANVIEWPATH want the capability to specify folders/files by their IDs when adding contents to Box Hubs. Currently, folders and files under the CANVIEWPATH folder are grayed out and cannot be narrowed down from the top folders.
The only way to identify them is by searching its folder name, which contains the risk of mistaking it with the folders with similar names.
Therefore we request to use folder ID to accuratrely identify and select the appropriate folders.（日本語）
CANVIEWPATHを利用しているユーザーが、Hubにフォルダ/ファイルを掲載する際に、フォルダIDやファイルIDで指定したい。
現在は、CANVIEWPATHフォルダ配下のフォルダやファイルはグレーアウトして上位フォルダから絞り込むことができません。
特定するには、フォルダ名で検索しかありませんが、名称が似ているフォルダと間違う危険もあるので、フォルダＩＤを利用できるようにしてほしい。13 votes
