  2. File Request link upload notification

    We want a feature of email notification which send to the actual user who uploaded the file.

    I understand that if "require users to provide email" option is enabled, users can confirm the uploader's email address on web app. I found that the email address was shown in “Updated” column.

    However, users cannot confirm the actual uploader from the report, and email notifications will only be sent to users who enabled notification settings of "upload" in their folder settings or account settings.

    Enabling the above feature makes it much easier to confirm if the user successfully…

  3. Box Relay

    Box Relay needs to be able to create a work flow for a parent folder and have it work for all child folders. A user is setting up a simple notification (upload, download) and then sends a notification to a set of users with a message. The user currently has to replicate or create a new Relay for each child folder. Very, very silly to have to waist so much time.

  4. Email to Box Change Disappointing

    Box decided to remove email to folder options for less than business users, with supposed preservation of existing email to folder set ups. That didn't work. The existing email to folder broke, one of our critical business processes was subsequently broken.

    1) I did not receive notice of this change
    2) I can't even view what the existing email to folder email address is.
    3) It's a poor move to remove a feature an existing customer has access to. Should have been grandfathered in.

  6. Add metadata to search results in web app

    Currently in the "search results" view in the web app, it is difficult to identify if an item is returned in the search result due to matching metadata. By adding matching metadata which triggered a "positive" search result to the list of search results, it will help guide the user to the correct search result. Without the matching metadata in the search results view, the metadata search query matching and filter functionality is not very useful, as users cannot tell the exact context that resulted in the search result matching. This results in users having to open all…

  7. Allow the admin to change the user addresses to upper case letters

    Currently you cannot change user addresses if you are only changing the letter cases

    johndoe@box.com
    JOHNDOE@box.com

    Box will treat these emails as the same address and will not send a confirmation email to the user.

    Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We will reconsider with additional use cases and demand.

  8. Show recent files from Box when a user clicks the standard attach button.

    The attach/attachment button today will show recent onedrive files, and users have asked if it can also show recent box files.

  9. Box Sync to Box Drive uninstall/install tool

    I currently have Box Sync installed across the enterprise and want to move over to Box Drive without each user having to manually uninstall sync and install drive. Looking for a tool that would allow end users to perform uninstall and install all at once.

  10. Flag mutliple folders for Offline User

    Currently, in order to mark a folder/file for offline, you have to do it individually. It would be nice to have the ability to drag select folders/file and have the context menu provide the option to mark grouped items as available, as you might with any other native Windows function.

  11. Auto Classification policy does not work when folders are copied or moved

    We would like to improve the behavior so that the auto-classification policy works correctly for files within the folder, even if the folder is copied or moved.

    【Details】
    Currently, the Auto Classification policy works correctly when files are copied or moved, but not when folders are copied or moved.
    For example, if a ".dwg" file is stored in the "Technical Information" folder, there is an automatic classification policy that assigns the label "Technical Information" (not for external collaboration).
    In this case, when a file with a .dwg extension is moved from the "Outside Shared" folder, it is automatically assigned the…

    Unfortunately classifying child items upon move/copy operations of the parent folder is not being considered at this time.

  12. Folder-level access control

    Box needs folder-level access control so that you can assign a specific user access level to a specific folder and not have it inherit the "waterfall" (unwanted) access level. This has been an issue for many years.

  13. Add ability to set time for reminder notifications by each user or admin.

    Currently assignee will receive reminder notification 24 hours before the due date of the assigned task. Users are receiving these reminders at mid of night and they want to receive them in daytime.

    Box Relay can set the default due ("time to complete" option) like how many days and hours.
    This default due is set automatically based on when the task is started. So for many cases, the reminder will be sent out because the task is started in daytime.

    But non-Relay task (General and Approval task) can set only due date from calendar picker, like "June 16". The…

  14. PDF Bookmark for Box Preview

    When a PDF files is viewed through a standard browser plugin, a hyperlink can be created to directly navigate to a specific bookmark, but this functionality is missing in the Box Preview.

    For instance, if a professor wants to make a textbook reference (to a specific chapter/page number), it would prevent confusion and save the end user from having to scroll through the pages.

  16. Correct log when a user creates an item in Box

    Currently, "Uploaded" and "Downloaded" are logged when a user creates an item like Word document, Box Note etc.

    However, it should be logged as "Created".

    This is not planned for our current roadmap. We will let you know if anything changes.

  17. Add Signature field to Box Forms

    It would be helpful to be able to include a signature field for a Box form submission. In cases where a user submits a purchase request form, we'd like to also show that they have signed/approved the information being passed (which is something we currently do when a user fills out the form and signs before submission to the procurement team). Being able to include a signature field in the form would save users multiple steps and closely approximate the experience of filling out a form and signing it.

  19. Add a report that lists metadata set for folders and files.

    There are many metadata templates, and each users can set them.
    In this situation, being able to see in lists what metadatas are actually applied to which files/folders and what values ​​are set can be very helpful in managing contents and metadata.

  20. Filter Box Signs by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive)

    Box Sign: Enable ability to filter by contract status ("In Progress", "Signed", or "Cancelled") from the column User Interface (more intuitive), rather than on the right side (less intuitive).
