  2. Initiating Box Sign Requests from AppUser Accounts or Specific Folders

    Currently, our firm does not allocate storage space to individual Box user accounts. Instead, we manage storage through AppUser accounts, structured around client matter–centric accounts and folders.

    During testing of Box Sign, we observed that sign requests are initiated from individual user accounts, resulting in the creation of a ‘My Signed Documents’ folder within each user’s storage. This approach necessitates allocating storage to individual user accounts for the saving of signed documents, which is inconsistent with our firm’s storage model.

    Would it be possible to enhance Box Sign so that the signing process can be initiated from a selected…

  3. Hide annoying Move Items security warning popup message

    Ability to suppress user popup security notification that warns about moving file will make content available to anyone with the link and to collaborators outside of your company.


    Move Items

    This content will be available to anyone with the link and to collaborators outside of your company.

    You have chosen to move the selected item to the folder 'folder-name'. This folder has collaborators outside of your company and has a public shared link enabled. Do you want to continue?

  4. Allow users to share built workflows

    Allow workflow builders to share their workflows with each other. Currently workflows need to be rebuilt by each user whereas it would save a lot of time to be able to share these workflows that have already been built.

    We've rolled this out in a recent release. Thank you for helping make Box better!

  6. I would like to add attachments (with shared links) in Outlook on the Web and make the attachment location at the top of the email body.

    When you add an attachment (with a shared link) in Outlook on the Web, it is attached at the bottom of the thread if the text field is expanded.
    However, it is difficult to see the attachment at the bottom of the thread, so please change the setting so that the attachment is added to the top of the email every time. (or add a feature).

    With the current specification, attachments are displayed at the bottom of the message, especially when the body of the message is long, so the recipient may not notice the attachment.

    Would you provide additional detail? The request looks like a mix of a few different concepts. Seems unlikely we will have an API that returns everything as asked.

    Can you potentially break these down? Seems the get subfolders request could be considered.

  8. Shared service account tenant isolation gap

    When an integration authenticates through one global service account instead of per-tenant identities, Box has no native way to enforce data separation between tenants or produce a per-tenant audit trail. The customer has to build that isolation and logging themselves outside of Box.

    We would like it if in reporting, we could get some more information when a shared link has been modified. As in, when it changes from “Item Share Updated” to actual details about what happened to the shared link. The verbiage could mean a number of things, and it makes it unclear to the admin what happened. A few of the things that this can mean are: Access type changed to people with the link, access type changed to people in your company, access type changed to invited people only.

    Use case:
    When security requests reports on links set to…

  10. Expose Favorites in Box Drive

    Favorites are becoming more and more popular now that they're better exposed (in the left rail) in the new Web App.

    As such, users expect to access their Favorites list regardless of which endpoint they're using - webapp (supported), mobile (supported), or desktop (not supported via Sync or Box for Desktop).

    REQUEST: Add a 'Favorites' view to Box for Desktop content (somehow) that allows the user to view only their Favorites (files + folders) just like they do in the webapp.

  11. Individualized shared links

    We'd like to be able to send customized links to specific individuals (e.g. company.box.com/JohnDoe) to know, even though they'd normally show as "Someone has Viewed your file", that it can be tracked back to being the particular person from that link.

    We'd ideally like to send that same file to 5 different prospects with 5 customized links

    Great suggestion. This is not currently prioritized since it’s a narrower use case compared to the other items on our roadmap.

  12. Include Folder Description in File/folder reports

    Due t the large amount of files, folders and collaborators (internal and external) in our organization we heavily rely on folder/file reports to manage content and educate new users about the content layout. Being able to include the "Folder Description" in this report would be TREMNDOUSLY helpful. Is this something you could add in the very near future? Thank you.

  14. Metadata driven Automations

    Customer wants the ability to push an approved item into multiple folders at once, which would be done using Box automations with metadata, where specific metadata can be added to push items into specific folders.

    For example adding metadata ?a?, ?b? and ?c? to a document will move the file to folders ?a?, ?b? and ?c?.

  17. Introduce a combination of version labels and version dependent permissions.

    Compared to legacy ECM systems, versioning in box is limited to data states over time. There is no notion of a document lifecycle attached to a certain version (WIP, draft, published).

    The mandatory check in/out of legacy ECM makes the system very user unfriendly. However, it would be nice if we could somehow label certain versions. The list of labels could either be fixed, or user definable.

    If we combine this feature with a new permission: "view documents with status published", we could now have one directory where people work on their documents, but external people would only see the…

  18. When posting a shared link generated from Box onto Teams, the thumbnail display is slow.

    When sharing a link from Box on Teams, there is approximately a 7-second delay before the thumbnail is displayed.

    Improve the functionality to allow posting without waiting for the thumbnail to display. Currently, if a post is made without waiting for the thumbnail, it does not showing up.

    To prevent posts without thumbnails, the following options are requested:

    Implement a control mechanism that grays out the “post button” until the thumbnail is displayed, preventing the ability to post without a thumbnail.

    Enhance the functionality to retroactively after posting, even if it was done without waiting for the thumbnail to appear.

  20. Ability to color code folders per agency within an Enterprise account while in the web portal view.

    To clarify/differentiate different agencies/companies under our main Enterprise, we would love to have the ability to apply color coding to folders in order to make it easier for those individuals who have access to multiple companies.

    Thank you!
