  2. Provide direct links for files listed in Problem Items window to the actual files in Box Drive.

    When users have a large number of Problem Items (> 10) it can be a pain to find exactly where these Problem Items are. The search function doesn't work well for these files and you can't even copy the name of these files. A direct link to them would be most convenient.

  3. Add a seach box to the file lookup when attached files to Asana via the Box connector.

    Asana file uploads from Box.

    When uploading a file to Asana from Box via the Asana/Box integration, there is no search box. This requires the user to navigate to the file location.

    It would save users so much time if there was a search box.

  4. Open Box Notes API for logging

    The idea here is to use a box note as a log which could be updated both by humans and an automated api.

    My use case for the api would basically be "append a line" to the box note.

  6. Better handling of situation when another application creates a folder at the Box Drive folder path

    Would like to see a few changes to Box:

    1) A better error message
    2) A possibility to continue regardless of the error
    3) A better handling of the situation where an application have taken ‘ownership’ of the Box directory

  7. Box Tools - Excel as default application for CSV and XLS

    We would like Box Edit to have Excel as the default application for all excel files, including CSV.

    Right now we run into an issue with CSV files where it is necessary to perform an operation to copy and then paste to Excel from Notepad. (Since opening CSV files might cause garble due to a character code (UTF-8), we are opening Notepad first and then open Excel files)
    Another workaround would be editing the registry which is risky and inconvenient - which is why we would like Edit to automatically open CSV with Excel as the default

    We don’t plan to implement this exception in Box Tools. However, we’re working on a related solution: the ability to open files in Finder/Explorer via Box Drive, where you can then choose to open them with a different app. Stay tuned for updates.

  8. Functionality to embed and directly edit Excel in Box Note.

    When a shared link is included in Box Note, it is possible to embed the preview of Box's interface. However, I request the ability to directly edit an Excel file when a shared link for Excel is included.

    While Box Note does have a feature to insert tables, it inevitably falls short in functionality compared to Excel. Enabling direct online editing would allow for the maximum utilization of Box Note's collaborative editing capabilities.

    BoxNoteにExcelを埋め込み表示して直接編集できる機能

    BoxNoteに共有リンクを記載するとBoxのプレビュー画面の埋め込みができますが、Excelの共有リンクを記載したら直接Online編集が出来るように要望します。
    BoxNoteに表を挿入する機能はあるもののExcelと比較するとどうしても機能的に見劣りします。
    直接Online編集が出来るとBoxNoteの共同編集機能を最大限活用が出来るようになります。

  9. LocalSystem sees current user's Proxy settings during automatic Box Tools update

    Box Tools Automatic Updates:"Box Edit Upgrade Service", please make sure that LocalSystem refers to the current user's Proxy settings as well as Box Drive automatic update.

    If the logon of "Box Edit Upgrade Service" is LocalSystem, the automatic update of Box Tools will fail. By changing the logon of "Box Edit Upgrade Service" from LocalSystem to the current user, communication via Proxy will be possible and the update will be successful. Also, by setting the Proxy setting equivalent to the current user for LocalSystem with the following command, Box Tools will be updated automatically.

  11. Improve annotations for Box Previewer UI element

    One of the main feature of our proof-of-concept utilizes Box’s concept of collaborations. We want to demonstrate beyond the capability of the basic file/folder sharing by utilizing the Box Previewer UI element and enabling the annotation feature. The annotation is such a great feature to enhance business and client relationship in the digital space. We implemented this feature however we found there are some challenges and we are hoping Box can help us find a solution to create a better experience.

    1. We were able to activate the annotation but only within app users. Both our employee entities and customer…

  12. Accept Box Sign Terms of Service Disclosure Once instead of every time

    Every document that we sign has us mark a check box for the Terms of Service Disclosure. It would save time if we could accept one time and it applies to every sign document thereafter.

  15. Please be able to specify which users can use the Box Graph Connector.

    Currently, the Box Graph Connector is enabled for users tenant-wide, but we would like to be able to enable it for specific users.

    For example, if some users are using Copilot for Microsoft 365, we need to be able to specify that only users who can use Copilot for M365 can use Box Graph Connector.

  16. My Collections on Box for Outlook App

    I’ve started to use the “Attach from Box” Outlook Addin O365 button, for attaching my documents in email. I’d like to suggest if you are able to see your collections list, to browse from.
    I have so much ‘clutter’ at my All files level and thought, it would be great to see some sort of favourites/collection option.

  18. Auto-creation of Folder Tree through Box for Salesforce

    To create a new workspace through the VisualForce window for Box in Salesforce, you click a button. I'd like to be able to set a folder tree structure through the Box Settings in Salesforce so that every time I click that button, Box automatically makes the same folder tree structure for every new workspace.

  19. Request to add a function that can delete the classification in Box Relay

    <Request to add a function that can delete the classification in Box Relay>
    We can change the Box shield classification in Box Relay, but we cannot delete the classification.
    The classification maintains the set classification even if we move or copy it, but in some cases we may want to change to the destination classification or delete the classification.
    Therefore, I would like you to add a function that can delete the classification.

    Box Relayで分類を削除できる機能を追加して欲しい>
    現在、Box RelayでBox shieldの分類を変更することはできますが、分類を削除することは出来ません。
    分類は、移動・コピーを行っても設定されている分類を維持しますが、ケースによっては移動先の分類に変更および、分類を削除したい場合があります。
    そこで、分類を削除できる機能を追加して欲しい。

  20. Ability to specify the destination folder for periodic output of Box reports

    We would like to be able to output Box reports periodically by specifying a folder.
    Currently, it is possible to output reports on a regular basis, but when providing them to users, it is necessary to manually move the output results, which takes a lot of man-hours.
    We would like to be able to fully automate this process, so we are making this request.

    Boxレポートの定期出力をフォルダ指定で出力できるようにしてほしい。
