  2. Notification(s) for Box Notes

    In the "Inbox" of Box Notes, any Note that gets updated by someone is conveniently displayed at the top. While this feature is helpful, it can also be bothersome because Notes that I no longer need to see keep appearing at the top of my screen every time someone opens them. Additionally, I’d like to be able to turn off unread notifications for Notes that aren’t relevant to me.

    It would be helpful to have a setting that allows users to turn update/unread notifications ON or OFF for each Note individually.

    Box Notesの「Inbox」で表示されるBox Notesは、誰かに更新されるたびに分かりやすく一番上に更新されたNoteが表示されます。この機能は便利ですが、もう見る必要がないNoteも誰かが開くたび、自分の画面のトップに表示され続けるため煩わしいです。また、未読通知も自分にとって必要ないものはOFFにしたいです。

    ユーザー自身でNoteごとに更新通知/未読通知をON/OFFできる設定があると便利です。

  3. I want to open Box Notes in view-only mode

    Currently, in Box Notes, it is possible to switch to view-only mode by changing "/notes/" in the URL to "/file/", but this method is not intuitive for users.

    Because it is not easy to open notes in view-only mode, users often accidentally edit the notes. We would like to prevent this from happening.

    We would like an option to select view-only mode when opening Box Notes from the beginning. It would also be more convenient if it were possible to bookmark Box Notes in view-only mode.

    Box Notesの閲覧モードで開きたい〉

    現在Box NotesではURLの/notes/を/file/に変換することで、閲覧モードにすることが可能ですが、ユーザーにとっては分かりにくいです。
    簡単に閲覧モードで開けないことによって、ユーザーが誤って編集してしまうことが多く、これを防ぎたいと考えています。

    Box Notesを開くときに、最初から閲覧モードで開くために選択メニューを追加してほしいです。
    また、閲覧モードにした状態のBox Notesをブックマークできるようになるとより便利です。

  4. Support the SheetView when using Excel Online by Box Edit

    When filtering an excel file on Box by Excel Online, the filter does reflect to the other users. We would like an option to have the independent filter between users. For Microsoft environment, the Sheet View is now generally available so we want the same functionality on Box as well.

  5. Setting Output Destination for Box Reports

    I want to be able to set the output destination folder name or file name for Box reports. Since it is necessary to regularly create activity logs for each team and project, I want to be able to distinguish which department or project the report belongs to by folder name or file name.

    Boxレポートの出力先フォルダ名かファイル名を設定できるようにしたい。チームや案件毎にアクティビティログを定期的に作成する必要があるため、フォルダ名やファイル名でどの部署や案件のレポートなのか区別できるようにしたい

  6. Ability to restrict fonts based on OS across all platforms

    Wants a setting to restrict the usage of characters that are restricted in the OS. for example, Box webapp allows more characters that Windows OS allows. This result in inconsistency when using Box Drive, what appears in Box Drive and what actually exists in Webapp.

  7. Box Sign Power Automate connector

    The possibility to use a Box Sign template as part of a workflow in Power Automate would allow automatizing key parts of processes (i.e. fill in a form and receive a request to sign a document)

  9. Box Note "Active Shared Link" indicator on Sidebar Box

    The only way currently to know if a Box Note has an Active Shared Link is to go to the folder which contains it (in the regular Box.com UI, not the Box Notes UI), and look for the "Active Shared Link" icon on the row for the .boxnote file.

    I suggest adding this same icon to the sidebar box for the note in the Box Notes UI (i.e. the box you click to load the note in the main right-hand pane).

  10. Ability to manually update Box Tools

    If Box Tools fails to update automatically, you may need to install or reinstall the latest version of the installer (after uninstalling Box Tools).

    Depending on the company, installation may require administrator privileges on the PC, and updating may not be easy.

    Therefore, it is very convenient to develop a button that can be updated without installation as a standard function of Box Tools.

  11. Ability to map Box Groups to Information Barrier Segments

    The current requirement for uniqueness in Information Barrier segments only allows Box Admins to add individual users to segments, not user groups. This process can increase the long-term maintenance.

    Ideally, customers should be able to use attributes from Active Directory that are then synced to Box Groups. Ultimately, the Box Groups would be used to update Information Barrier segment membership automatically. If the group update breaks the requirement that a user can only belong to one segment, Box could produce an error message.

  12. Box Note editing enhancements - Cut/Copy/Paste lists, tables, wiki, etc.

    Many of the requests I see for Box Notes seem to have one thing in common: The editor is not compatible with other editors or even with itself.

    Lists:
    - Copying a list from slack, outlook, word, or any other source (especially if it is multi-level) ends up removing all the indentations, numeric/letter/bullet, and other nuances of that list. So, not only can we not import or export an entire box note, we also cannot simply cut and paste a list into and out of box note from other applications.

    Tables:
    - To copy a table row to another table…

  13. Get a list of all collaborators for a box folder

    I want to get a CSV file with all collaborators for a box folder. The fields should be the same as on the Collaborators page. This needs to be available for end users - not just for box administrators. I need this so I can copy the internet IDs from one folder and add them as collaborators on a different folder. Doing this single name at a time is not practical.

  15. Email File Request Link from Box

    Add ability to email file request links directly from Box (similar to collaboration invites). This would allow customers to audit who sent out file request link/ when.

  16. Create new folder from Move/Copy Dialogue box

    We regularly need to move and copy content to different locations in Box. It would be very helpful to have a "New Folder" option within the move/copy dialogue Box. This would help mirror desktop functionality (and sync, which currently supports this feature).

    This is a very narrow use case, so it’s not a priority for our roadmap right now.

  17. Custom notifications using Box API

    Using Box API there is no way to create custom user notifications. It might be helpful to send some information to the customer that some documents have been moved, imported, etc. A user can monitor the folder but this would be a valuable extension for the API for platform developers.

    Thanks, this is a great suggestion but not one that is currently on our roadmap. In the mean time, you can consider using Webhooks to get relevant events and make use of a simple transactional email/sms API such as those provided by Twilio/Sendgrid or Amazon SES to send notifications based on those events.

  19. No "print" option like in Box Notes

    There's no way to export or print the Canvas. This ability exists in Miro, so if Canvas were to offer this, we could likely cut out our Miro licenses. This ability exists today in Box Notes, so it would make sense for it to be available in Canvas as well.
