Hide contributors on Box Hubs
Customers need the ability to hide who their published Hubs are shared with. They are sharing information with multiple customers who may be competitors of one another, and want to prevent them from seeing who else is accessing the information.

We would like to have a setting to control the ability to create shared links in Box Drive.
Currently, users can right-click on content in Box Drive and generate a shared link from the "Share" menu. We need a way to disable this functionality through administrative settings.
When creating a shared link from the web, it is possible to confirm that the shared link has been created by an icon,, however, when creating a shared link from BoxDrive, no icon is displayed, making it impossible to know whether a shared link has been created. Therefore, we want to prohibit creating shared links from BoxDrive.

BoxDriveで共有リンクを作成できないように制御したい
BoxDriveでコンテンツを右クリックし、メニューの「共有」から共有リンクを発行することができるが、これを制御する設定ができるようにしてほしい。
Webから共有リンクを作成する場合は、アイコンによって共有リンクが作成されていることが確認できますが、BoxDriveから共有リンクを作成するとアイコンが表示されず、共有リンクが作成されているかどうかがわからないため、BoxDriveからの共有リンク作成を禁止したい。

Add # of files to Box Hubs Report
Box Hubs fails if there are over 10,000 files linked to in the hub. It would be helpful to have a report that could report the total number of files available in a hub to help ensure we stay below this limit and/or if we exceed this limit, we can move content to a different hub and judge the impact of moving specific folders to better balance the load.

Restricted export of content insight reports by non-administrative users.
There is a function to export Content Insights access statistics, but if you restrict content creation and prohibit the creation of first-level folders, you will not be able to export it.
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696594
However, anyone who owns a folder called "Box Reports" can export Content Insights Reports, even if they don't have admin permissions.＜request＞
As stated in the article, restrict non-admin users from exporting Content Insights reports.
*Do not make an exception for the owner of the "Box Reports" folder
We do not want users without administrative privileges to be able to export this report, as this would reduce the chances of a malicious user maliciously exporting the report to near zero.日本語：

ただし、「Box Reports」というフォルダーを所有しているユーザーは、管理者権限がなくても、コンテンツ インサイト レポートをエクスポートできます。＜要望＞
記事に記載されているように、管理者以外のユーザーがコンテンツ インサイト レポートをエクスポートすることを制限してください。
※「Box Reports」フォルダの所有者に例外を設けないでください管理者権限を持たないユーザーがこのレポートをエクスポートできないようにすることで、悪意のあるユーザーが悪意を持ってレポートをエクスポートする可能性をほぼゼロに減らすことができます。

Add Integration by App ID/Client ID for Shield Access Policy Integration Restriction
When creating a Security Rule for a Shield Access Policy, when setting an Integration Restriction, you can only add the integration by name, and not by client ID or app ID. We have many apps with similar names, so using the client ID or app ID would help us restrict the correct app.

Open Microsoft Office in embedded Office app by default
If I have, say, an Excel file in my Box account, I can right-click on it, choose Open with..., then choose Excel Online, and it'll open up in the embedded version of Excel. That's wonderful! However, since I almost always want to open my Excel files that way, I'd really like an option to have that happen automatically when I open the file without right-clicking on it. This would save me a bunch of clicks over time.
(Closely related, I'd also like to get rid of the "will open in Microsoft Excel Online in a new browser window" alert, but there's a separate request for that for which I've already voted.)

In the Enterprise settings for device protection, add the global IP address used during client connection to the device trust requirements.
I would like to add the global IP address that the client connects to as a target in the device trust requirements of the policies that can be set in the Enterprise settings for device protection. Currently, it is possible to apply for allowed IP addresses individually on a tenant basis, but it is not feasible to respond appropriately each time. By making it possible to set this as an item in this function, it will be possible to respond quickly and control the target in a limited manner, thereby improving operational management convenience and enhancing security. Please consider this.
Enterprise設定のデバイス保護のデバイストラストにて設定できるポリシーのデバイストラスト要件に、クライアントが接続する際のグローバルIPアドレスを対象に追加してもらいたい。
現在、テナント単位で個別申請によって許可対象IPを申請可能だが、都度申請では適宜対応できないため、本機能の項目として設定可能とすることにより、迅速な対応や、対象を限定した制御が可能となるため、運用管理の利便性とともにセキュリティの向上を実施可能となる。ぜひご検討いただきたい。

Folders and Files Report Filtering Settings
Request:
In the folders and files reports, we want to output the results filtered by the content's "Creation Date (range specified)" or "Upload Date (range specified)".example:
Output a list of content that was newly uploaded (or created) within a specific time range (MM/DD to MM/DD) stored in Boxmerit:
By carefully selecting only the minimum amount of information required to be output in a report, you can reduce the time it takes to output the report.
In addition, since there is no need to process the output reports, work efficiency can be improved.要望：
フォルダとファイルのレポートにおいて、コンテンツの「作成日(範囲指定)」や「アップロード日(範囲指定)」でフィルタした結果を出力したい。例：
Box内に保存されている特定の時間範囲(〇月〇日～△月△日)に新規アップロード(もしくは、作成)されたコンテンツの一覧を出力するメリット：
レポートで出力される対象の情報を必要最小限に厳選することで、レポート出力までの時間の削減になります。
また、出力されたレポートを加工する必要がないため、業務の効率化が見込めます。Request:

I would love if we could Embed AI Agents, and assign specific AI Agents to specific Hubs.
Hi there! I'm trying to make the power of Box AI accessible to my users. Right now the best thing would be to give them a chatbot to read HR documents, on our Intranet in Sharepoint.
I would love to be able to embed ONLY the Agent into Sharepoint, but so far we can only embed the Box Hub. Therefore if my user wants to ask about their HR benifits, my user has to:
1. Go to the HR Sharepoint Site (where they normally find info on employee benefits, etc.)
2. Unlock the blue/white Box Cloud image (see: "RC HR Screenshot 0 - Embedded into Sharepoint.png")
3. Read my instructions on the hub, ignore the folders in the hub, and click the Box AI button (see: "RC HR Screenshot 1 - user reads instructions.png")
4. Change the Default AI Agent (see: "RC HR Screenshot 2 - default AI Agent.png")
5. The user has to somehow know that they're using the default AI agent, and they need to use the dropdown to the proper HR Agent "HeberBot" (see: RC HR Screenshot 3 - Dropdown to proper Agent.png)
6. then finally type their question.I would love for this to be simplified somehow. Can you suggest other ways, or let me know if there's something that box has planned to simplify this? The best outcome would be: I would love for my user to go to the HR site, and type questions to the correct AI Agent.
So I guess this request can be broken down to 2 technical asks:
1. Embed Box AI Agents/chatboxes directly into sharepoint.
2. Allow admins to assign specific AI Agents to specific Box Hubs. ( For example, my HR agent to my HR document hub. And inherantly disallow the default Box AI agent, or other AI Agents)Hi there!

Expand Column for Files and Folders Report
Sometimes I have users who ask for a files and folder report on a particular folder. After I receive the report I have to create an additional column for a link to the file/folder. I just use the existing information in the report, replace all F with f in the Item Type Column, and concatenate function in excel to create this. Would just like this to be a native addition for the report.
Excel function: =CONCAT("https://box.com/",[@[Item Type]],"/",[@[Item ID]])

Box Relay auto-populates metadata text field with destination folder name
It would be useful to have a feature where when a file is uploaded, the destination folder name is automatically entered into the metadata text field.
Specifically, when uploading experimental data from an experiment called "A" to Box, if we upload a file to a folder named "A", we would like a system where "A" is automatically entered into the "Experiment content" field of the metadata.
With this function, when searching for metadata "A", only files related to experiment A will be extracted.
It is expected that this will lead to improved business efficiency.For example, if we create a folder with the name "client company name," we can search by metadata to extract only files related to "client company name."
＜Box Relayで、メタデータのテキストフィールドにアップロード先フォルダ名を自動入力＞
ファイルがアップロードされると、自動的にアップロード先フォルダ名がメタデータのテキストフィールドに入力される機能があると便利です。
具体的には、「A」という実験を行った実験データをBox上にアップロードする際、フォルダ名「A」のフォルダにファイルをアップロードすると、メタデータの「実験内容」フィールドに「A」と自動入力されるといった仕組みが欲しいです。
この機能が実現することで、検索時にメタデータの「A」と検索をするとAの実験にかかわるファイルだけが抽出されます。
業務効率化に繋がることが期待されます。例えば、フォルダ名を「取引先会社名」で作成していれば、メタデータで検索をかけ、「取引先会社名」に関わるファイルだけを抽出可能です。

Prevent file duplication when using template and file replacement
Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common to replace an existing document with another and use the Sign template.What we really need is a Sign template with the following items set without the documents.
-Signatures & Fields
-Recipients
-The save location*The save location should be freely specified, not be the same as the template storage folder.
In Japanese：
Signでは、既存のフィールド・プレースホルダーを保持したまま、署名リクエスト/テンプレート内の基礎となるドキュメントを置き換えるテンプレートを作成することができます。
しかし、事前にセットされたドキュメントとは異なるドキュメントを使用することで、保存先フォルダに元の文書と同じファイルが重複して作成されます。
これは、テンプレートが1回使用されるたびに、不要なファイルが1つ生成されることを意味します。テンプレートが100回使用されれば、不要なファイルは100個にもなります！
もちろん、ファイルを置き換えない場合はこのようなことは起こりません。しかし、既存の文書を別の文書に置き換えてSignテンプレートを使用することは一般的です。本当に必要なのは、ドキュメントファイルは無しで以下の項目がセットされたSignテンプレートです。
・署名フィールド
・受取人（リクエスト送信先）
・保存場所（ドキュメント格納先）※保存場所は、テンプレートの保存フォルダと同じにするのではなく自由に指定できるようにするべきです。
