Open read-only in BoxDrive
Users with viewer privileges are not allowed to update files, but in the case of files that are updated simply by opening them, such as .xls files, an error will occur each time the file is opened in BoxDrive.
Is it possible to open files from BoxDrive in read-only mode?-in Japanese-
ビューアー権限のユーザーはファイルを更新することができないようになっているが、.xlsのように開くだけで更新されてしまうファイルの場合、BoxDriveでファイルを開くと都度エラーが発生してしまう。
読み取り専用状態でBoxDriveからファイルを開けるようにしてほしい。28 votesBox Drive doesn’t currently provide a built-in “read-only open” option. Instead, whether a file opens in read-only mode depends on the application (Excel, Word, etc.) and the operating system.
Here are a few possible workarounds:
- Download a local copy and open it outside of Box Drive.
- Use Box Preview in the web app, which always opens in read-only mode.
- Adjust application settings (e.g., in Excel you can configure certain files to always open as read-only).

I would like the restrictions on Box AI to be lifted or reduced.
It's great that the Box AI query limit has been lifted.
Next, we would like to see the following three limits lifted or reduced.
・Limited to 1,000 characters per question
・Text content size limit is 1MB, with larger files only processing the first 1MB of text
・Non-English languages may produce lower quality resultsOf course, we would also like to see the accuracy of the AI improved. (Especially Bax AI for Hubs)

Let me turn off Box AI
I have no use for AI. I do not want Box AI in my workflow at all. But since Box AI was implemented, my default sidebar on the Box web view is Box AI. This is useless to me, and more annoyingly, it replaced Activity (a very useful sidebar) as the default, making my experience of Box less productive and more annoying. I encounter this many times per day and it is infuriating.

Box Preview - Support native preview of .XLSB format
For regulatory requirements, users are required to have the 'Previewer' access level on certain content to avoid Download permissions.
However, this means the user is unable to use Excel Online Previewer (due to this requiring 'Download' permission), nor open the file in another editor.
Unlike the .XLSX or .XLSM formats, .XLSB files do not generate a PDF conversion, which makes these files fully inaccessible to Previewers.
The request is for .XLSB files to be supported in Box's native Content Preview.

Change the wording in the log in / Homepage
Could the wording on the home page be changed to read "Employee of..." instead of "Part of ...."? We share Box with external users and the wording is confusing as they are part of the company but do not work for it.

I would like the number of managed users to be displayed in real time.
Regarding counting managed users in Admin Console > Users & Groups, the current design has a delay of one or few hours before accurate number is reflected.
While we can use reports to see the exact number of users, it would be better to be able to see the number immediately after adding or removing users more intuitively.3 votes -
Redundant Shield alerts
Box Shield should be able to recognize when the same file or file set appears in multiple locations and treat it as a single item, rather than generating duplicate alerts across each instance. This would allow users to acknowledge (or dismiss) an alert globally—once for all occurrences—rather than having to clear it separately for every flagged file.

Support IAL2/AAL2 Identity Providers as a Box Login
Box should partner with identity providers like ID.me and Login.gov, allowing for enterprises to ensure a smooth and secure login process for managed users and external collaborators alike . Users should be able to use these credentials to access Box.
This is especially important to reduce the risk of unverified external collaborators accessing sensitive enterprise content. Ideally, admins can enforce these IdP logins for external collaborators (similarly to how the current 2FA setting for external collaborators works). These two identity providers can require IAL2/AAL2 identity verification and authentication in accordance with NIST 800-63-3 standards.

Filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated in the user detail report.
Content:
Currently, the user detail report cannot filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated,
and it is necessary to check while cross-referencing with the user list on the Users and Groups screen.
Additionally, the unmanaged user list on the Users and Groups screen can take up to 24 hours to reflect changes,
which may cause discrepancies with the information at the time of report output, reducing operational efficiency.
I request the implementation of a feature that can filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated.(日本語)
タイトル： ユーザー詳細レポートで、コラボレーションされていない管理されていないユーザーをフィルタリングする。
内容：
現在のユーザーの詳細レポートでは、コラボレーションされていない管理対象ユーザーをフィルタできず、
ユーザーとグループ画面のユーザー一覧と照らし合わせながら確認する必要があります。
また、ユーザーとグループ画面の管理対象外ユーザー一覧は反映までに最大24時間かかるため、
レポート出力時の情報と差異が発生する可能性があり、業務効率が低下します。
コラボレーションされていない管理対象外ユーザーをフィルタできる機能実装を希望します。3 votes -
Shared Links Report Enhancement - Report from a specified folder and below
I would like a filter to be added to the Shared Links Report where you can specify a specific folder and the report will run with that folder as the top level and report on shared links for everything below that. This would run much faster than running the report for our entire tenant.
We have much of our data owned by a "Project Account" so it is not controlled by a specific employee. Because of this, running the report with this user as the owner using the existing filter option is much the same as running a tenant-wide report.…

We want to gain insights from images inserted in Notes using Box AI for Notes

Kanban metadata view in Box Apps
As a user, I'd like to be able to map a metadata field to metadata view columns so that I can clearly manage content as part of my daily process.
Instead of my 'Status' field being one column with multiple values, I'd like to each value to be its own column e.g. Not Started, In Progress, Pending, so that I get a status-driven view of my content.

We would like the number of contents per hub to be displayed in the Box Hubs management function
When using Box AI for Hubs, the current limit for the number of pieces of content that can be placed in one Hub is 10,000.
We would like to be able to check this upper limit in the Hubs list in the administration console.Box AI for Hubsを利用するにあたり、1つのHubに配置できるコンテンツ数は現在10,000が上限です。
その上限値が管理コンソールのHubs一覧で確認できるようにしてほしいです。12 votesHello! This functionality is already planned for development.

Change the word of the Reauthorize button for custom apps
After changing the scope of a custom app that was created in the past from the Developer Console, the admin must re-authorize the app.
After sending the authorization request, if you open the app details page from [Admin Console > Integrations > Platform Apps Manager > Target App], the scope before the change is displayed.
We can check the scope after the change by clicking the Reauthorize button in the upper right corner of the screen and displaying the popup.
After that, app approval is completed by clicking the Reauthorize button in the pop-up.However, the button on the app's…

I want to be able to change access permissions when inviting someone to a Box folder via Teams
As per the current Box specifications, when you invite someone to a Box folder via Teams, they will be granted editor permissions and cannot be changed in advance.
After inviting via Teams, it is possible to change the access permissions on the Box side, but it is very inconvenient to have to change the access permissions every time.
By making it possible to set access permissions in advance, unnecessary permissions will not be granted, reducing the risk of incidents occurring.(日本語)
件名：Teams経由でBoxフォルダへ招待する時、アクセス権限を変更できるようにしたい
内容：
現在のBoxの仕様として、Teams経由でBoxフォルダへ招待を行う場合、編集者として権限が付与され事前に変更する事はできません。
Teams経由で招待後、Box側でアクセス権限の変更は可能ですが、都度アクセス権限の変更をする事とても不便です。
事前に付与されるアクセス権限の設定が可能になる事により、必要のない権限を付与する事がなくなる為、インシデントが発生するリスクが減ります。13 votes -
Box AI Describe Changes in File Versions
It would be useful if Box AI was able to tell me what has changes between different versions of documents.
For example, if my coworkers were updating a report or presentation while I was out of the office, it would be great if I could ask Box AI what changes have happened in the past x-number of days to the document to quickly bring me up to speed.

box for slack:Image preview is not displayed in Slack Canvas

Strikethrough check boxes!!
PLEASE bring back strikethrough checkboxes for Box Note!! New change makes it more difficult to see which items have been completed -- especially for anyone with vision problems or those using computers/monitors with lower contrast

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.
