Add "Expand" Option to See All Files within a Folder as Thumbnails
In Box Hubs, you can add a folder but only the folder shows as the thumbnail, not all the files within that folder.
It would be great to have an "Expand" option to allow you to see all of the files within a folder as thumbnails under the folder as well.

Box Group Automation, Dynamic, Identity Manager Tie, or other Methods
Searching through Box pulse ideas, there are several different flavors of requests for Box Group automation (allowing for users to be auto assigned to a group based on some type of input, either being account information, data fed from an identity platform, etc).
This will be important for enterprise customers, as they transition from Microsoft file shares/products that have this functionality available.

Box CLI Email Notifications and Folder Settings
We would like to enable upload notifications for select folders, on particular users or groups.
Currently users need to go into each folder's settings to then check the box for upload notifications, or they can select upload notifications in their user settings.
The first option is very time consuming, we have about 140 folders that we would like to target and it is hard to force employee's to complete this.
The 2nd option removes the importance of notifications if users are being notified for everything.It would be great to have a bulk option to enable notifications or manage other folder settings for users.
Would it be possible to use the Box CLI to target Folder IDs, User/Group IDs, then have the various folder options to flag or unflag. This would be a huge time saver.We would like to enable upload notifications for select folders, on particular users or groups.

I want to search for folders by tag prefixes.
Could you provide an API endpoint that allows searching for folders by tag prefixes? This would streamline the process by eliminating the need to manually retrieve all folders and filter them based on tags.

Box Relay Task Approval Options
For the action Assign a Task - Approval Task, there's a section that asks "What happens when this outcome is completed?" If the task is approved, there's no option to select, it's just hard coded in to go to the next outcome. If the task is rejected, you can select options. I would like to be able to select options if the task is approved as well.
My use case:
I'm working on a formal approval process in Box using Relay. We need to have a legal review of our templates each year and I'm using a Relay to manually trigger on the template that needs review and then it sends an approval task to the legal person to review it and either approve/attest to it or reject it, saying it needs to be revised/not approved for use. I want to build one Relay for this process - if the task is approved, I want a notification sent to the workflow starter that it's approved and then end the flow. If it's rejected, I want to send a notification and then continue on with the flow to move the file that started the flow to a different folder (drafts) and then assign the workflow starter a general task to complete revisions and go through the approval process. I have to do this in two separate Relays, one for the approval/attestation and then another for making updates/changes/revisions. It would be nice to be able to have more selections for the approval task once completed for both approved and rejected. This also might not be a bad idea to add this on to other actions, like send a notification.For the action Assign a Task - Approval Task, there's a section that asks "What happens when this outcome is completed?"

"What's New?" Button in a the Box Web Application - Can we include release notes notifications there as well?
Would it be possible to include release notes in the under the "What's New" button inside Box's Web App? Besides receiving sales notifications, it would be nice to have our users in the know about changes that might be impact them right there in the Box Web App, and not under the release notes' external page.

Notification function when a conflict occurs when editing a file
Files are locked when edited from Box Drive by users who have co-authoring enabled.
However, it takes time for the lock to take effect, which can lead to file conflicts if another user edits the file first.BoxDrive and BoxEdit normally notify you when a file conflict occurs, but unfortunately users who have enabled the collaborative editing feature do not receive the notification that a conflict has occurred.
If you want to co-edit with a user whose co-editing function is disabled, you can co-edit with Office Online if you are editing Excel or Word, but the file you want to edit this time is Access.
Therefore, collaborative editing is not possible in Office Online.When a conflict occurs, it is necessary to re-edit each file, but currently there is no notification when a conflict occurs, so you have to check on your own to see if there is a conflict.
To save time, notify users who have co-authoring enabled when a conflict occurs.ｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰｰ
＜ファイル編集時の競合が発生した際の通知機能＞
共同編集機能を有効化しているユーザーがBoxDriveからファイルを編集する場合にはロックがかかります。
ただし、ロックが反映されるまでに時間がかかることで、他のユーザーが先に編集を行ってしまうとファイルの競合が発生します。BoxDriveやBoxEditでは、通常、ファイルの競合が発生した際に通知される認識ですが、
残念なことに、共同編集機能を有効化しているユーザーには「競合が発生しました」という通知が届きません。共同編集機能が無効化になっているユーザーと共同編集したい場合、
ExcelやWordの編集であれば、Office Onlineで共同編集が可能ですが、今回編集したいファイルはAccessです。
そのため、Office Onlineで共同編集が行えません。競合が発生すると、それぞれのファイルを編集し直す必要があるのですが、
現在は競合発生時に通知されないので、自力で競合ファイルの有無を確認する作業が発生しています。
作業時間の短縮のため、共同編集機能が有効化されているユーザーにも競合発生時には通知してください。Files are locked when edited from Box Drive by users who have co-authoring enabled.

When changing the notification settings for a folder with permissions below viewer/uploader, an error message is displayed.
When changing the notification settings for a folder with permissions below viewer/uploader, an error message is displayed.
When you invite an external collaborator with viewer/uploader or lower permissions, an error message appears when the external collaborator tries to change the notification settings for the folder, causing confusion.
We want you to not see an error every time you change your email notification settings.(和訳：)

Scheduling documents with Box Sign
It would be very beneficial for us to be able to schedule documents that require review and signature to be sent at a predetermined time. We use SIgn to send people involved in our investigations (higher ed Title IX) documents, so it is easier to preschedule things then have to do them at various times.

Registration of Information Barrier segment members in the management group
We would like an extended function that allows segment members to be registered in groups.
This makes it possible to automatically manage segment members in organizations that manage users and groups within a Box tenant using SCIM coordination, etc. from an IDP.
セグメントメンバーをグループ単位で登録できる拡張機能を要望します。
これにより、Boxテナント内のユーザー及びグループをIDPよりSCIM連携等で管理しているような組織において、セグメントメンバーの自動管理が可能となります。

Ability to resize the signature box for signers
Currently, Box's functionality does not allow the signer to change the size of the signature area.
If the signer has a large number of characters or strokes and the signature area is small, it will be inconvenient because the signer's name will be difficult to read.
Therefore, we would like to implement a function that allows the signer to change the size of the signature area.(日本語)

I would like to exempt BOX Service Account user from password reset
Box will disconnect from Salesforce if the password is not reset which creates a problem when we have an automated email drop into box from Salesforce.

Needing to refresh my page after unlocking a google doc so I can move it is annoying
My users are complaining about all the extra clicks that Box requires vs. other cloud storage solutions. For instance, after unlocking a file, I have to refresh my page before I have the option to move that file. This seems like an easy thing to fix. Auto refresh the page after an unlock so all the file options are available.

Create one of "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs
In Teams V2 integration, when you add a Box app to a team from the left menu, Apps >Box> Add to Team > Select the team you created > Set Tab, you may see "Boxファイル" and "Box Files" tabs created.
Please improve the functionality so that only one of the tabs is created, as users may be confused as to which tab to use.4 votes -
Folder Lock from Web UI
Currently, Folder Lock can be configured only through API. We would like to be able to configure it on Web UI, e.g. Folder Settings.
Folder Lock function is very useful, but not used widely. Probably it's because API is not very friendly for some users.86 votesBecause of the downstream impacts, we will not be solving this problem as requested. We will be looking at a more holistic approach to prevent unintended consequences of file operations.
