  2. "Are you sure" pop-up when dragging & and dropping folders

    I'd like a pop-up message confirming if I'm sure to appear when trying to drag and drop folders on the web app. Especially in a GxP environment this is important to reduce risk of human error.

  3. Folder lock API applying to sub folders

    Currently when you lock the parent folder via the API, and a user deletes that parent folder, the parent folder doesn’t get deleted (due to the API) but the child folders within it gets deleted.

    However, this is inconvenient because that parent folder just becomes an empty folder.
    When the user tries to delete the locked parent folder, I would like the API to work to the folders below that parent folder so that it doesn't become an empty folder when they try to delete it.

  4. Edit User Access permissions - View Options Needed

    It would be great to see the following enhancements made to the Edit User Access permissions section of the User page; specifically the 'Select folders this user can access' section:
    1) Allow for columns to be Expanded to see the entire folder name
    2) Include a sort option to these columns in order to sort by folder name, owner, file size, or Access level.

  5. Date and Time of uploading file on BOX

    Hi! I was faced with the problem of file date uploading on display on BOX.

    I know that usually, BOX shows "Today" or "Yesterday" if the file was uploaded to BOX today or yesterday. It's clear, but, I need to see the exact date displayed with numbers. For example, I want to see that the file was uploaded to BOX "18 of May, 2022" instead of "Today".

    Moreover, I even can't see the time when the file was uploaded to BOX. I work with the client in different time zones (the difference is 10 hrs) and sometimes it is really…

  6. Trigger rescan for Auto-Classification when adding new classifications

    We did not implement Box Shield immediately upon standing up our new environment. After over 1TB of data was uploaded, leadership wanted us to implement new auto-classifications. There is currently no way to force a rescan of all existing documents to apply those new classifications. Going into each folder and copy/pasting, moving, or editing each file is impractical for tens of thousands of uploaded files. Would like a simple way to trigger the rescan without having to engage for a consulting project for box.com to create custom scripts to update the classifications.

  7. Box Web - make file icons smaller

    Prologis would like the large file icons in All Files > recent files to be smaller. As they are now, they aren't very helpful - the previews are too small, and you can't see the full name of the file, making it difficult to identify.

  8. Group Creation Based on IdP Attributes

    Please allow the automatic creation of groups in Box based on attributes being passed from the IpD. In my specific case I want to limit certain content to students and other content to faculty and staff. Having users automatically added to the group would help manage access to the correct resources.

    Thanks for your vote!

  9. Relay trigger for Microsoft Information Protection Labels

    When a Microsoft Information Protection label is mapped to a corresponding Box classification label, that currently does not serve as a trigger for Box Relay. The relay workflow is only available if the file is manually classified with a Box label, or if it inherits a label from a folder. Being able to trigger really workflows based on MIP labels would add considerable value to the MIP-Box integration.

  10. Need APIs for auto deletion of files and folders.

    Need APIs for marking files and folders for auto deletion in future date. This feature is on the portal, but provided as an API.

    Box can add this as an attribute to the file upload or folder creation API. Or a separate folder/file attribute API, so the date can be changed, if required later after its creation.

    We are automating activities on Box.com using RPA, the APIs are faster and reusable compared to the UI automation.

    Box should introduce APIs for basic features such as this one, so these can be done at the backend and it is more optimized…

  11. Simple Search AND Advanced Search

    Box Search has its uses, but seems to be lacking a lot of basics I would have thought common. Given the wide ranging uses that customers seem to have, it makes sense to have more options opened up. More new Features are nice, but existing and frequently used Features like Search should really be refined.

    The Simple Search is definitely helpful for some, but it looks like a lot of people are not satisfied with its the current state. Sorting is lacking. Filters are lacking. Why not include an Advanced Search function which includes what numerous Users have been reporting…

  12. Configuring the Default Box Drive Folder Location

    In the latest version of Box Drive and OS it is no longer possibly to change the file path to a shared folder. This is causing many linking issues for my team as we work within shared files. Would love for this to be reconsidered again and put it the next box update.

  13. Include owner of the relevant file in the notification e-mail when the collaboration is terminated.

    Currently, the following information is included in notification e-mails when a collaboration is canceled. 
    "There is one collaborator to be removed-[name] - [folder name] - [date to be removed]."

    The current notification email has no information about who the collaborator is.
    Please include the owner's information in the notification email so that we can contact the owner.

  14. Disable email upload notification for users who are uploading the files

    We are using Box Email feature to collect all attachments from the important thread. Box sends notification after succesful upload for EACH file. Sometimes company logo in the signature is also treated as an attachment. The end result is too many emails from box.
    It will be better to turn off this feature at the folder level. If folder to which the attachments get delivered could select to turn off the notifications, it would be greatly appriciated.

  15. NetSuite/Box - enable the ability to add the work order issue, work order completion, work order close records with the integration

    Adding functionality to the work order issue, work order completion, work order close records would help customers that leverage the Manufacturing NetSuite module. At this point, it is not available through the integration because the above records are created dynamically and are not static.

  16. Back up the data in the box to other storage in case of box incidents.

    We want to back up Box to other cloud storage or servers in case we cannot access the contents due to Box incidents.
    We would like to have the feature to migrate Box data to other clouds.

    Recently, there have been many Box incidents, and we need to take action to ensure that we can carry out our business in any situation.

    Boxの障害が発生しても業務を遂行するために、Boxのバックアップを他クラウドやサーバーに持ちたい。そのためBoxから他クラウドなどに同期できる機能が必要である。

    最近Boxの障害の影響を受けることが多く、万が一Boxがにアクセスできなくても、業務を遂行できるような対策を考えなければならない。

  17. Box Relay Trigger "Update File"

    Currently there is no "file update" in the Box Relay trigger.
    If you upload a file with the same name in Box, it will be saved as a new version of the existing file instead of a new upload.
    There is currently no trigger to trigger in such a case, so it would be nice to have a "update file" trigger.

    現在BoxRelayのトリガーには、「ファイルの更新」がありません。
    Boxにて同じ名前のファイルをアップロードすると、新規アップロードではなく既存のファイルの新しいバージョンとして保存されます。
    そのような場合に発動するトリガーが現在ないので、「ファイルの更新」トリガーがあれば嬉しいです。

  19. Link to reset password available to admin

    When sending Users the link to reset password. The Admin should be able to see the link in case the user doesnt get the email. The admin should be able to see it to copy and paste it and send it thru outlook email. In case the user is on the suppression list.

  20. Creating multiple triggers in Relay

    We created a workflow to create subfolders automatically. The ability to create subsequent triggers in those subfolders would be helpful. (i.e. folder A is manually created, folder a1, a2, a3, are automatically created. When a file is uploaded in folder a2, do outcomes 1-3)
