  1. Be able to update the links existing on the login page "Not part of xxxxxx? Log in or Sign In Here"

    Customer prefer to be able to update those links vs utilizing the Login Page section of custom set up as users are immediately drawn to that above link in the image when they cant get into Box and most of the time will not know to come back and look at the extra verbiage.

  2. Ability for users to track activity

    In the Closed configuration ,Only admins and co-admins can track activity on the files listed at the URLs below.
    Users cannot be tracked.
    If users can export reports, they can perform on themselves statistical analysis.
    As a result, it becomes possible to actively use Box.
    So I want users to be included in the targets that can be exported.

    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043696594-Tracking-User-Activity-on-Files#:~:text=If%20your%20admin%20enabled%20Restrict%20Content%20Creation%2C%20only%20the%20primary%20admin%20and%20co%2Dadmin%20can%20export%20Content%20Insights%20reports.

  3. Box Task Inbox Filter to see only Tasks pending my action

    I use my Task Inbox all the time, and often receive Tasks with multiple assignees. It is frustrating when I can't filter out the tasks I have completed but that are still in progress pending action by someone else. Could you add a filter that would allow me to see only the Tasks pending action by me, that is separate from all tasks still in progress by any assignee?

  4. Allow individual file sharing to groups

    Currently, you can share folders with groups, but not individual files. I have a custom tutorial I'd like to share with a user group wihtout nesting it in a folder, like the "Get Started with Box" PDF file does, but there is no option for it. Optimally, I'd prefer to see an option in which we could replace the "Get Started with Box" PDF file with our own PDF tutorial that addresses our specific needs.

  5. Expansion of File Version Limit settings

    For customers currently using Governance, the "File Version Limit" setting can be set to 1-100 or unlimited.
    We would like this setting to be improved so that it can be specified as 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, etc. The reason is that problems may occur when there are multiple file versions when migrating between tenants or within a tenant, so I would like to limit this in the settings.

  6. Allow preview/editing of Office files other than PW-protected Excel (.xlsx) files.

    We feel that the inability to preview/edit PW protected files makes it less convenient.
    In order to ensure security, we often assign passwords to not only Excel files, but also to PowerPoint and Word files, and there are many opportunities to collaborate on editing PowerPoint and Word files. This is because not supporting online access reduces work efficiency.

    PW保護しているファイルがプレビュー/編集できないことで利便性が低いと感じております。
    当社ではセキュリティを確保する目的で、Excel に限らず PowerPoint や Word についてもファイル自体にパスワードを付与していることが多いという点と、Power Point、Word ファイルを共同編集する機会も多く、Online で対応していないことにより作業効率が下がってしまうためです。

  7. Metadata template creation - option to duplicate metadata template, then edit

    A lot of the metadata templates will have similar fields, so ideally you could duplicate an existing metadata template, then make edits from there rather than just having the option to start new each time.

  9. Box Tools:Stopping automatic version updates

    I request that an automatic version update stop function be added.
    When installing Box Tools on the template distribution PC, I would like to stop automatic version updates for a certain period of time in accordance with the distribution timing of the template distribution PC.

    We also request that similar functionality be added to Box Drive in the following titles.
    "Box Drive:Stopping automatic version updates"

    自動バージョンアップ停止機能の追加を要望します。
    雛形配信のPCにBox Toolsをインストールするにあたり、雛形配信PCの配信タイミングに合わせて一定期間自動バージョンアップを停止したいと考えています。

  10. Admin select Box default document lock time

    We need the option as Admins to change the default lock time (e.g. one hour). Box support said "Unlimited" is the only default option. This creates a problem because users, by the Box design, select lock without changing the default resulting in many, many "unlock" requests.

  11. Combine Executed Signed Docs and Signature Log

    Currently, when you send a document to be signed, the signed executed document and signature log are saved as separate files. It would be nice if the signed doc and signature log were one document and saved as an updated version of the original document. Currently, it turns 1 document into 3 documents, and clutters up the folders.

  12. importhtml & importxml to be supported on Google Sheets integration in Box

    Some formulae such as importhtml & importxml are not supported in Box Google Sheets integration.
    I strongly hope the functions on Google Sheets will be fully compatible with Box.

  13. Have a box sign template tag for 'receive a copy" recipients

    It would be great if there was a box sign template tag to add recipient's to receive a copy of the signed document.

    This would mean a template could have hardcoded recipients for a copy or provide the ability for a signer to add recipient's to get a copy.

  14. Ability for admin to configure expiry duration of open links that are sent to recipient's

    Box Sign uses open links to distribute completed agreements to all recipients. This open link expires after 14 days. Some customers want to make this shorter or zero to protect sensitive information and some other customers want to make it longer as recipient's dont want to create accounts in order to access the agreement after the 14 day period.

    Please add a feature in admin console so that the admin can decide the expiry period for their enterprise

  15. File Request list

    I would like to see the list of the folders that have File Request enabled so that I can check which folder is already enabled and can easily disable from that list.
    There is a feature in admin console but would like to have the end users be able to do see it for their collaborated folders.

  16. 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.

  17. data loss in mobile applications

    Box is currently unable to save any new files directly from office mobile applications to Box fileserver locations, and the files disappear into the void when attempting to do so. After a few wasted hours of troubleshooting Senior Box Support indicated this is a result from a lack of support for mobile co-authoring functionality. An error message at the absolute bare minimum to instruct users to only save data locally would be the expectation when a file cannot be saved before data loss occurs.

  18. I want BoxEdit/BoxDrive to support the Save As feature

    When a user opens a file from the web interface in a desktop app such as Excel, makes edits, selects Save As, and renames the file, the new file does not get saved. Countless hours' worth of work have been lost because of this significant problem. If a user does all the same steps with the exception of opening a file from File Explorer (BoxDrive) instead of from the web interface, the new file is saved. We need the same functionality in the web interface!

  19. BoxRelay trigger "Scheduling"

    A customer is considering using boxrelay in the future.

    Event scheduling → When triggering by date, currently you can only select the 1st day or the end of the month.

    For example, if it were possible to do this on the second Wednesday, the 10th, or the 15th in the future, I think it would be convenient and encourage its use in the future.

  20. Ability to send BOX email notifications from own domain using M365

    Hello, this post applies to both regular BOX notifications and BOX sign. Many of our send requests and notifications are getting caught in spam and quarantine filters. This is happening both externally and internally, especially for BOX sign requests. We want to be able to integrate our O365 or GSuite domains into BOX so that all of these notifications (internal and external) are sent from our domain and show in our O365 history. This would dramatically speed up the adoption of BOX sign and we want the audit ability. Thank you!
