Alerts when large amounts of data are being moved
We would like the option to receive alerts if someone is attempting to move or delete a large amount of data from it's original location in Box. This way we can keep users from mistakenly moving large folders and losing them.

Feature: Selective Notification Controls
Problem: Users managing multiple folders receive excessive automated alerts, particularly for collaborator deletions. Currently forced to choose between all notifications or none.
Solution: Add granular notification toggles at folder level, allowing owners to:
• Choose which alerts they receive per folder
• Keep important notifications while disabling non-critical ones
• Control collaboration alerts independently
Value:
• Reduces notification fatigue
• Improves content management efficiency
• Maintains essential security alerts
• Better user experience for folder owners1 vote -
Include the ability to add additional information to a user creation event or new collaboration event
User creation and collaboration often includes a number of details that should be recorded and auditable by Box Admins. When a user is created, there is often a sponsor, a ticket or request ID, and potentially a rationale, project name, or dozens of other information that needs to be remembered by the organization. Likewise, when collaborations are created, there is often additional context that should be auditable after the fact - what is the reason for the collaboration, what is the project or ticket ID that led to the request, who is the sponsor - this is especially important for…

Preview a file with an external user without requiring them to set up an account
We share a link with our clients to preview and donwload files, but they can't preview it. It was working until yesterday, but today is not anymore.
All the settings are correct.

Direct transfer tool on macOS from connected NAS to Box online, bypassing the local drive cache
Our scenario is a NAS with 80TB worth of data on it. Mac-only environment.
I know about the standalone transfer tool available on Windows, but this is no option for our macOS environment.
Box Shuttle (cloud) is not an option to get this data onto Box, either as it can't connect to our NAS direclty (and it being in offline network segment).
Uploading in 1 go from the web portal fails miserably.
Drag'n'drop from NAS to connected Box Drive client fills up disk space beyond capacity.
Copying files from my NAS to Box Drive requires a tedious, manual process due…

I want to specify 1000 as the fixed value displayed in "File version limit"
The preview of the file version history will show 1000 new records, but after 1000 records, you need to use the API. However, in the "File version limit" section, I can't specify 1000. Please improve it so that we can specify 1000 in the "file version limit".

ファイルバージョン履歴のプレビューは新しい1000件が表示されますが、1000件以降はAPIを利用する必要があります。
しかし「ファイルバージョンの制限」で、1000を指定することができません。

Add 'Box file request' in the content to Box hubs
We want to add 'Box file request' in the content to Box hubs. This would enable various departments within the company to upload files directly here. Currently, Box file requests can accessed via a link, so having the ability to upload files through box hubs would be extremely convenient.

Make MPIP and Shield Classification Labels Bidirectional
This make require partnership with Microsoft, but it would be ideal if the MPIP integration was bidirectional. For example, if a file in Box doesn't have an MPIP label, but a Shield classification label is applied, the document would have an MPIP label applied based on the mapping table

Workflows with external users
(Japanese follows)
When an external user is invited to a folder, you want to execute a workflow that specifies an external user.Currently, the notification action allows you to create a workflow that specifies an external user.
Since it is not possible to create a workflow that specifies an external user in the "folder action" > "Add collaborator" etc., I would like to see the function improved so that external users can be specified in "Add Collaborator" and other actions.フォルダに外部ユーザが招待されている状況で、外部ユーザを指定したワークフローを実行したい
現状、通知アクションでは外部ユーザを指定したワークフローが作成可能。
フォルダアクション＞「コラボレータの追加」などでは、外部ユーザを指定したワークフローが作成できない為、「コラボレータの追加」とそれ以外のアクションでも外部ユーザが指定できるよう機能改善してほしい。4 votes -

.docx images are messed up in Box when edited using word online
Whenever I upload a .docx file, I try to edit it. I click the "open" dropdown. I open the .docx file in Word Online. When I add images to Word Online, my document looks fine. However, when I save and come back to Box, my document has images all over the place, in crazy places. I don't think that Box picks up the image formats from Word. Also, every time I make a change in Word it changes the version in Box. I got 22 new versions in just a few minutes, which is not what I wanted.

Merge accounts
If there are two different accounts with two different emails, there should be a way to merge these accounts into one account. Whether individuals, families, or companies, this functionality would be helpful. The permissions should be kept in the transfer, and duplicate files should be identified.

Ability to map Box Groups to Information Barrier Segments
The current requirement for uniqueness in Information Barrier segments only allows Box Admins to add individual users to segments, not user groups. This process can increase the long-term maintenance.
Ideally, customers should be able to use attributes from Active Directory that are then synced to Box Groups. Ultimately, the Box Groups would be used to update Information Barrier segment membership automatically. If the group update breaks the requirement that a user can only belong to one segment, Box could produce an error message.

I want the API to query Box Hubs for AI queries
I want to use the Box AI API to query hubs. Querying a limited set of files and passing to the AI engine is insufficient. I want to leverage the vector database of Hubs to answer questions about a collection of documents.
My other alternative is to build this out myself. I don't want to do this. I want to leverage the power of the Box AI API. Instead of files I want to be able to pick the hub and ask the question for AI to answer for me.

Ability to set metadata editing permissions
Currently, metadata can be edited using anything other than the viewer or previewer.
I would like to see a feature added that allows only administrator privileges to edit metadata, while other privileges can only view metadata (but cannot edit it).メタデータの編集権限を設定可とする機能の要望
メタデータについて、現在はビューワー、プレビューアー以外であれば編集可能ですが、管理者権限でのみメタデータの編集を可能とし、その他の権限ではメタデータの表示のみ可能（編集不可）とするような機能の追加を要望します。

If we make changes to the metadata template, the changes should be reflected in the metadata of the created file request link.
If we make changes to the metadata template, the changes should be reflected in the metadata of the created file request link.
When changing the item name of a metadata template or the display order of text item choices,The changes are not reflected in the configured file request screen.
When the number of file request settings is large, the metadata templates need to be changed manually one by one when there is a change in the metadata template. This is a burden on workers and leads to a decrease in operational efficiency.メタデータテンプレートに変更を加えた際に作成済みのファイルリクエストリンク内のメタデータにも変更を反映して欲しい
メタデータテンプレートの項目名変更や、テキスト項目の選択肢の表示順を変更した際、設定済のファイルリクエストの画面に変更内容が反映されません。
ファイルリクエストの設定件数が多い場合、メタデータテンプレートに変更があった際に1つずつ手動で変更が必要なため作業者の負担となり業務効率の低下に繋がります。16 votes -
Decode expired Box Links
We have had users create Box Links to various files and folders and by default these links expire. If the employee who created the link leaves the company there is no easy way to decode the location path that the link is associated with. Box creates the links it should be able to decode and discern the location the link is referencing.
