BoxDrive app for Windows better error messages visible to users
We are trying to troubleshoot BoxDrive connectivity issues and the only error it generates now is "Verify that you are connected to the internet and restart Box Drive". This error is not specific enough to start the troubleshooting process. BoxDrive for Windows needs to have a better error messages shown to the users if it's an issue with network connectivity, user authentication or any other issue.

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…

Google Workspace - Add Collaborators/Check for Collaborators
The Google Workspace add-on only allows you to create a Shared Link to share files/folders, you cannot add/remove collaborators. It would be great to have the ability to add folks as collaborators, rather than just choosing from Shared Link settings. Additionally, it would be great if when sharing the file it could be recognized that recipients on the email and/or calendar invite do not have existing permissions to the file/folder (similar to what Google does.)

Allow Admins to Recover Deleted Users Directly
Occasionally, Admins can delete a user (or large group of users) for one reason or another (license re-allocation, deleting users based off of perceived inactivity, etc.). Sometimes these users need to be recovered quickly to give users access to their Box account once again if this was done by mistake. The ultimate goal would be to enable Admins who have the ability to manage users to recover deleted accounts on their own (whether through somewhere in the admin console and/or via the CLI or API) so that product support doesn't need to do so through…

Multiple files in one shared link
We would like to send multiple documents from separate folders in a single shared link.
Currently when you select multiple files, you are limited to files within one folder, and the files are sent with a shared link for each file.
Possible solve: "Bundle zone" in the web UI where you could drag and drop files from different folders, and once you have all the ones you want, tell it to generate a single shared link which would display like a folder to the recipient, without the user having to rearrange their content.

Separate shared links for internal and external users.
We want to be able to share links internally and externally. External shared links should only be available for 10 days while internal shared links should not expire.
14 votesInteresting suggestion! However, this is not planned at this time due to competing priorities.

Folder Lock from Web UI
Currently, Folder Lock can be configured only through API. We would like to be able to configure it on Web UI, e.g. Folder Settings.
Folder Lock function is very useful, but not used widely. Probably it's because API is not very friendly for some users.86 votesBecause of the downstream impacts, we will not be solving this problem as requested. We will be looking at a more holistic approach to prevent unintended consequences of file operations.

Collaborator Expiration - Include Co-Owner(s) in the Email Notification
Current Behavior:
--Email Notification - Sent to 'affected users' (defined as Folder Owner and the original Inviter, aka the person who invited in the collaborator who is about to expire)
--Ability to Extend Expiration Date - Folder Owner & Co-OwnersREQUEST: Add Co-Owner(s) to the email notification distribution so that they can take the burden off the folder owner (since co-owners already have the ability to extend the expiration date).

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.…23 votes -
Task Feature in Box Automate
In the current Box Automate, the Task outcome fails when the folder or enterprise setting is "Only folder owners and co-owners can send collaborator invites", which we understand is officially stated on the Box Support page.
However, many companies in Japan use this configuration, making the Task feature in Box Automate practically unavailable.Our understanding was that Box had initially stated the existing Box Relay features would remain available after the upgrade to Box Automate. If that is not the case, this may impact customers’ existing business operations, which we consider to be a concern.
We would like to request…

Just in time User Provisioning / Licensing
The current way of licensing is old school. Instead, you could leverage Okta's just-in-time provisioning: https://help.okta.com/en/prev/Content/Topics/Security/Security_Authentication.htm?cshid=Security_Authentication_JIT#Security_Authentication_JIT
Then (with SSO required & on the fly), Box grants everyone in an org an acct after logging in thru SSO, they're auto-provisioned a Box instance, and a license is registered/"billed" to company.

"SSO Authentication Should Be Counted as 'Login' in User Statistics Report"

Report on new data platform doesn't reflect latest information
Report on new data platform doesn't reflect latest information
To improve report performance, Box migrated legacy to new data platform on collaboration report recently. However, new one will take about 24 hours to reflect latest data into exported report. It could be harder for admin to audit new collaboration on enterprise using report feature. There are two request for this change :
- Make sure that admin knows when the exported report is as of
- Reflect much faster like User Detail Report which can reflect 1 hours ago

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.

Retention Policies as Deletion Policies
Files in a folder (or globally) would be purged after a certain period of time, but if a user wants to remove the content before that time, they would be able to do so.

Add permission that allows Group Admins to delete user accounts in their group and transfer content
We want the option to give full granular account management capabilities to Group Admins, including the ability for Group Admins to delete an account or transfer data to another user.
Without this, IT is still required to get involved for deprovisioning. They'd have the option to give this ability to Group Admins for their departments or groups as a granular permission

Ability to restrict Box Sign to internal use only
[Request contents]
Please add the ability to restrict recipients to Box Sign "options".
I would like the scope of restrictions to be selectable only by internal users and invited users, similar to shared links.[Background]
If you restrict Box Sign to internal use only, security incidents may occur without the above features.(Japanese)
[リクエスト内容]
Box Signの"オプション"に受信者を制限する機能を追加してほしい。
制限する範囲は、共有リンクと同様に社内ユーザーと招待されたユーザのみが選択できるようにしてほしい。[背景]
Box Signを社内利用のみに制限している場合、上記の機能がない場合セキュリティインシデントが発生する可能性があるため。77 votes -
Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content
Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.
