  1. About BoxDrive upload error notification messages

    <BoxDrive upload error notification off function added>
    Regarding the desktop notification method when a BoxDrive upload error occurs,
    From version 2.41 onwards, a message similar to a Windows notification may be displayed.
    I would like each user to be able to set whether or not to display the message.

    supplement:
    Since it was not displayed until now, past errors are accumulated,
    Since the accumulated amount is displayed as a message, some users may have more than 200 messages displayed, and the messages will be displayed periodically until they are resolved.
    Since it will take time to resolve the error, I…

  3. Provide Notification when user is removed as a collaborator

    Right now, users do not get a notification when they are removed as a collaborator from a folder. This can cause confusion as this could be caused by a number reasons (ie deletions, inactive users), and results in admin assistance to dive in to what may have occurred. Users do get a notification when they are added to a folder, so they should also get one when they are removed from a folder as well

  5. Approval Notification Emails: Route to Document

    When an approval process is completed, the notification email that goes out to the requester does not have a direct link to the document that was approved. Since there isn't a way to name template-based Sign requests so that they can be easily identified, it would be helpful to include a direct link to the document that was approved.

  6. Notification Policy - Notify if not part of certain domains

    It's desired that Notification Policies have the ability to notify if an external collaborator is added that is not part of the EID's domains.

    Currently, companies must set a notification policy and detail all of the domains they want a notification policy for.

    not planned  ·  Anonymous responded

    While this is possible to implement, we are not making significant changes to sharing policies in the near future.

  7. Convert all notification email contain "app.box.com" link to "ent.box.com" under BVE

    Some notification email such as "Email Uploads completed" contain "app.box.com" link even for enterprises that have Box Verified Enterprise enabled.

    They should be converted to "ent.box.com" link in order to access them from Internal network.

  9. Changed conditions for sending invitation deadline notification emails for external users

    Currently, invitation deadline notification emails are sent to external users under the following conditions

    1. co-owner of the folder
    2. the user has been personally invited to the folder
    3. direct collaborators of the folder.

    Please change the specification so that notification emails can be received even if the user is invited as a group rather than as an individual under condition 2.

  10. Notifications from Box Relay aren't very useful without linking back to the file or folder

    Relay is a great tool - but the Notifications aren't very useful. There is no way to link to the actual file or folder that is involved, so the user gets a very nebulous notification that is basically meaningless. Instead of being helpful, it could actually cause confusion for the user, if there are multiple activities happening at the same time.

    Please update this functionality! Thanks!

  13. Folder settings Notification mail

    Currently, there are two ways to set up email notifications: from [Account Settings] and [Folder Settings].
    The name "Folder Settings" may be misleading.
    The reason for this is that the name [Folder Settings] seems to affect users who are invited to the folder as collaborators.
    Therefore, please add a note to [Folder Settings] that the scope of the effect is only the user who made the setting, and that the effect is not reflected on users who are collaborating on the folder.


    現在メールによる通知設定は、[アカウント設定]からと[フォルダ設定]があります。
    この[フォルダ設定]ですが、とても誤解を受ける名称をしているかと存じます。
    理由として、[フォルダ設定]とあるため、フォルダにコラボレーターとして招待されているユーザーに影響があるように見受けられるためです。
    そのため、この[フォルダ設定]には影響範囲は設定を行ったユーザーのみであることと、フォルダにコラボレーションされているユーザーには反映されない旨を注釈として記載してください。

  16. View notification activity for items in the item properties details

    When viewing the properties of an item, there should be an option to view a history of notifications that were triggered for that item. This would allow people, such as an uploader, to verify that the intended collaborators are receiving the information about the upload, and take action if the notifications are not triggered.

    Potentially having an item saying something like "notification suppressed" for those who have the options disabled or if the folder settings are defined to disable notifications would be useful as well.

    Requesting that a blank line at the beginning of the notification message to be sent if there is.

    A section of task,
    "What are the task details?" message
    If there is a blank line at the beginning of the notification message, it will be sent as a blank line.

    A section of "If the task is rejected:Send a notification>
    “What are the notification details?>
    message
    If there is a blank line at the beginning of the notification message, the blank line will be canceled and sent.

  18. Display Notification for Blocked Uploads to Uploading User

    When creating your own Content Security policies for uploads it would be really helpful to be able to create a notification that would be displayed to an uploading user. The notification would be able to be configured by an admin user to explain the reason for why a file upload was prevented.

    Without these types of notifications we have users who may upload files and then needless work exists to find out which user uploaded a file type we do not accept to then notify the end user that the file type is not acceptable and then have the…

  19. Email Notifications for Viewers

    Users are able to set their email notification in the folder options. However, if you have "viewer" access, you are not able to select these notifications for uploads. You must have "editor" access to do so.

    We have groups with "Viewer" access as they shouldn't need to edit files in the said directory, however they should be notified when a new file has been uploaded.

    The only solution box support provided was to turn on the upload notification in the user settings for all of their files. This would be counterproductive as the clutter of notifications for all…

  20. Expose Box's "Notification Email" field to SAML provisioning and syncing

    The "Notification Email" functionality in Box is very helpful for @mentions, file sharing invites and other user notificaitons that need to go to an email address other than the email address used to sign into Box. This can be the necessary when a company has subsidiaries on a common directory infrastructure, but one or more subsidiaries is still maintain the old email identities for day to day work. There are likely other reasons to use this field.

    Email: john.doe@mothership.com (Used to sign in.)
    Notification email: jdoe@subsidary.com (The correct email address for user notifications.)

    Box's SAML integration allows an…
