box AI for meeting transcripts
Will Box AI have capability to capture speech and write into Box Notes? We use Box Notes for all our internal meetings so having Box AI in Box Notes is great but could it also capture the meeting discussion and create a full transcript of the meeting? Maybe via Box Mobile or using Zoom integration with Box? Thinking similar to GONG call recordings.

Box has recently changed the way file verssions count against storage quota.
With a Personal Pro account type there is no way to limit the number of file versions its set at 10. This makes 100gb of storage into 10gb of storage with each file saved 10 times. I'd like to see an option to limit or turn off file versions as I understand the Enterprise edition has. Also, there is no way to quickly delete all these unnecessary and unwanted file versions. I was told we need to click each file and delete each version one by one. I'd like to see a quick global way to delete old file versions.
Overnight my storage went from 90gb used to 170gb used do to the change made to the way versions are counted toward total quota. I didn't know about versions before this and certainty don't want them. I have 500,000 files all mostly less than 25mg but with each one being stored up to 10 times with with no way to stop it or remove them my box sync account is suddenly not functional. I'll never be able to re-move all the versions and have no desire to be forced to pay 5x more to be enterprise when there are other similar software such as dropbox that is already cheaper than box and giving much more storage and compatibility. I had box set up and working well enough for me for 7 or 8 years now but since they broke it with this change, I hope they will fix it with some additional changes I've suggested here, I'll have to set up a dropbox account. If this software issue isn't resolved before my renewal date then I just wont renew. I hope it is, I prefer not to change, just being forced too.

Box AI Prompt Closes on Outside Clicks
Box AI prompt screen automatically closes when clicking outside of it. This issue becomes particularly problematic when using digital adoption tools to provide a guided tutorial for Box AI. When users click on the tutorial, it is interpreted as clicking outside the Box AI prompt, causing the prompt to close. As a result, the educational guide cannot be executed effectively.

Improving "Folders and Files" Report Output
Currently, when outputting the "Folders and Files" report, it is not possible to output folder-only information. Therefore, only folders need to be extracted from the output report. If file information is included, the number of records output will increase significantly. We would like to be able to output folder-only information. In doing so, it would be great if we could also specify the hierarchy of the folders. For example, up to the top 5 levels.
現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートの出力時に、フォルダのみの情報を出力することができません。そのため、出力したレポートからフォルダのみを抽出する必要があります。ファイル情報が含まれると出力されるレコード数も大幅に増えてしまいます。フォルダのみの情報を出力できるようにしてほしいです。
その際に、フォルダの階層も指定できると嬉しいです。例えば、上位5階層までなど。4 votes -

UX - Not clear when a note name is taken
When a user insert a note name and the name is already taken, there is a small notification at the end of the line.
It is not visible enough, and when focusing out the name reverts to the previous option.It took me 2-3 times to understand what the issue is because the notice wasn't clear enough.
Possible solutions :
1. add a suffix to the name
2. make a red bold notice on the name so the user can't miss it1 vote -

Request to improve synchronization speed between Box Web UI and BoxDrive"
We would like to request an improvement in the synchronization speed between Box Web UI and BoxDrive so that they can be synchronized within 5 seconds.
Our investigation of the synchronization speed is based on the following items.Pattern (3) Upload to Box Drive and check the screen update on WebUI: Result: No automatic update even after waiting for more than 5 minutes.
Pattern (5) Delete the file on WebUI and check the update on Box Drive: Result: 20 seconds
Pattern 6: Delete the file on the Box Drive and check for updates on the WebUI: result: 3 minutes
Pattern ⑦ Delete the file on Box Drive and confirm the update on Box Drive on the other terminal: result 16 sec.
Pattern ⑧ Edit the file on WebUI and confirm the update on Box Drive: result: 10 seconds
Pattern (9) Edit the file on Box Drive and confirm the update on WebUI: result: 52 sec.
Pattern ⑩ Edit on Box Drive and confirm updates on Box Drive on another terminal: Result 2 min 10 secWe are aware that the synchronization method differs from that of other companies' products, but all of the other companies' products complete the process within 5 seconds.
We would like to request that you improve the synchronization speed, as a slow synchronization speed is not convenient for users and can lead to shadow IT.

Google and Microsoft FORMS integration is missing!
I see that this is not planned based on lack of demand. I'm writing this comment to increase the demand.
I will continue to use SharePoint or Google drive because this is missing from box.
Word, PPT, Excel, Google docs, slides and sheets are all here... why not forms?

Seamless zoom in box web app for pictures
In light of Box's stance for Windows Universal apps. I'm requesting improved zooming support inside the preview/webapp experience.
Currently to zoom you must manually click the +/- button which is a loss of function compared to a native desktop app where you might be able to zoom with the mouse wheel or ctrl+mouse wheel.
Requesting that Box add a similar functionality to the preview / webapp.
Below is Box' current official workaround for the issue:
Windows Store Applications (Photos, Office, etc.): Users are unable to open files from the Box Drive folder when navigating to it from within these applications. Users may also experience errors or silent failures when saving from these applications into Box Drive.
We recommend you install the .exe or .msi version of these applications (for example, Photos or Office) instead of the Windows Store app. Otherwise, on the windows store app you'll need to save the item outside of the Box folder and then drag the item back into Box.In light of Box's stance for Windows Universal apps.

Request the ability to suppress emails during user provisioning in Box
When a Box user is provisioned, an email is sent to the person's email address, but there are cases where many companies and organizations, not just us, are provisioning mailboxes at the same time. In this case, the mailbox provisioning is slower than Box provisioning is completed, so Box determines that the email is unknown and is entered on the deny list. To prevent this, I'd like to see a feature that doesn't send emails during user provisioning in Box.

Boxのユーザープロビジョニング時のメールを送信しない機能を要望する
＜本文＞
Boxユーザーがプロビジョニングされると、そのユーザーのメールアドレスにメールが送信されますが、私たちだけでなく、多くの企業や組織が同時にメールボックスをプロビジョニングしているケースがあります。この場合、メールボックスのプロビジョニングは Box のプロビジョニング完了よりも遅いため、Box はメールが不明であると判断し、拒否リストに入力されてしまいます。これを防ぐために、Boxのユーザープロビジョニング中にメールを送信しない機能を用意していただきたいです。1 vote -

I want to use box ai to train my own ai models
I imagine a world where I can create a model and associate it with a metadata set. I think it would work like this.
Create New AI Model. I would put it right next to metadata creation. Let's say I create an AI model called "Analyst Answer". I would associate Analyst Answer with a metadata template.
In the AI Model I would pick the metadata template and then I would assign Independent and Dependent variables from the MetaData Template.
For example,
Independent Metadata Field -
Financial Input 1 (Net Worth) - Tag as Independent
Financial Input 2 (Income) - Tag as Independent
Financial Input 3 (Annual Performance) - Tag as Independent
Financial Input 4 (Age) - Tag as IndependentOutput - (Analyst Commentary) - Tag as Dependent
I could handkey in those metadata values or use Box metadata extraction to fill them in.
I could do a search based on the files with that metadata and click select "train model".
Now, when I upload a new document of that metadata type it would run through the ai use metadata extraction to fill in the independent variables and then based on the model fill in the dependent or AI model value.
A way to leverage Box documents for models without having to pull things in and out.

Disable offline access for specific folder
We would like to have a feature to disable Box Drive offline access for specific folders. Our users try to download the whole department folders and sensitive folders without realizing it. This is causing issues with disk space and compliance and there is no way to control this at the folder level, as Editor will have default access to download all files offline.

Visual confirmation in webapp for which Zone content is stored in
Some customers require end user and audit confirmation that specific content is stored in a specific Zone. This can easily be confirmed if this content has some type of in-app designation (maybe another piece of information in the 'Details' tab of the webapp) that confirms which Zone a folder/file is stored in. Since this tab is already displaying file/folder info, this should be able to be included with the same API call the webapp makes to Box.
