  1. Allow users to click outside of the Refresh File pop-up box without having to click Cancel or Ok

    Currently you can't do anything on the screen without clicking one of the options on the Refresh File pop-up box that appears after editing. 90% of the time, I'm trying to leave that screen and I don't need to see the updated version because I just edited it. If that box could disappear if I click anywhere on the screen, that would be ideal.

  2. Box for Office Logs

    Log files are stored with annoying date stamp format. Log files should be stored like BoxExcelLogDate.txt rather than BoxExcelLog.txtdate.

  3. Custom Identifiers that can be seen in user reports

    Customer Requests the ability to upload custom identifiers that can be seen when running user reports. Currently they use the user's email address to determine if a license is needed, and when a name change occurs, this creates confusion as it appears that the person may have left and the license is no longer needed.

  4. Folder Under Retention Should Not Be Purged From Trash

    When a folder is deleted from trash that contains files under retention policy it causes issues because the files are no longer visible to the customer to recover them. This happens if the trash admin setting is set to purge all trash in a certain time period.

  5. Restrictions on the use of direct links/直接リンクの利用制限

    When issuing a shared link, the direct link is displayed on the screen transition of "Link setting" from the shared link issue screen, so there are cases where the direct link is used by mistake.
    There are many cases where users with free accounts cannot use it because they share files using direct links.
    Therefore, please make improvements so that the use of direct links can be restricted on a tenant-by-tenant or folder-by-folder basis.

    (In Japanese)
    共有リンクを発行する際、共有リンク発行画面から「リンク設定」の画面遷移に直接リンクが表示されているため、間違えて直接リンクを利用するケースがあります。
    直接リンクを用いてファイル共有を行ってしまい、無償アカウントのユーザーが利用できない事が多発しています。
    そのため、テナント単位やフォルダ単位で直接リンクの使用を制限できるよう改善をお願いします。

  6. Box Uploader should be also listed as the Box File Owner

    It is frustrating to see that the Owner of a Box Folder structure, is listed automatically as the Document Owner. Can this be changed to reflect the Owner as the person who uploaded the file instead. So if there are any questions on files, it goes to the right person, rather than to a Box Folder Owner who actually would have to field and re-direct as appropriate which is not ideal.

  8. Too many clicks to share files + see download activity!

    I'm finding it inconvenient that, to share a link once it's uploaded in the web interface, I have to click "Create & Copy Shared Link", then click "Link settings", then click "Copy", then click "Save", then click the X to close the window. That's five clicks just to grab the direct link. It may not seem like much, but it adds up - and I could have sworn it was a faster, more efficient process in earlier versions of Box years ago.

    Not only that, but the recent change to the layout of the web interface in terms of seeing…

  9. Box Sign - Results of filled out fields populate into a CSV.

    Results of Bulk Send, Ready Sign, and/or individual contracts populate into a CSV.

    E.g. I fill out W9 fields [NAME], [Address], [Social Security #], etc., and these results populate into a CSV.

  10. Select and Download Individual Files from Zip File Preview

    The ability to Preview Folders within a zip file exists, however, you cannot click on individual files. It would be nice to be able to select the individual files from the zip file preview and then download the selected files.

  11. More Fonts for Japanese

    Currently there is only one font available when signing in Japanese.
    It would be great if there are more font options in Japanese as well.

  12. Multiple folder Search options in Content Filters.

    When we search content, we can only set a certain folder to search (with a tick box) as a condition.
    However, we would like to select multiple folders in the Content Filter to have more specific results in order to refer file a in folder A and file b in folder B.

  13. BoxDrive-like UI for web apps

    I want you to change the UI of the web application like Windows Explorer or BoxDrive.
    Specifically, I would like the content list screen to be split into two, with the folder list displayed on the left and the contents of the folder displayed on the right.
    If you use this UI, you won't have to switch screens every time you want to display another folder, so I think it will improve work efficiency.

    <WebアプリのBoxDriveのようなUI>
    WebアプリのUIをWindowsエクスプローラやBoxDriveのように変更してほしい。
    具体的には、コンテンツ一覧画面を2分割して、左側にフォルダ一覧、右側にフォルダ内コンテンツが表示されるようにしてほしい。
    このUIにすれば、別のフォルダ内を表示するときにいちいち画面遷移しなくて済むので業務効率があがると思います。

  14. Recent Box Notes design update - I need table width consistency, dislike the off-page scrolling

    I use Box Notes quote a bit throughout every day and am really struggling with this new design update, especially to the tables formatting. I use a new table for each day's notes, and make a new file every month.

    This design update has completely messed up the formatting of each table's size: some horizontally scroll off page, some truncate columns and cut words in half, and none are default to width of page. It's extremely disorienting and has set me back quite a few hours.

  15. Make item selection of Content Explorer more kindly

    Currently item selection of Content Explorer is difficult little, because only character area can be clicked.
    I hope thumbnail area also can be clicked, so that item selection of Content Explorer can be more kindly.

  16. Comments should copy over when files are copied from one folder to another

    Not sure why this has changed, however, when copying files from one folder to another (inside a parent folder) it would be great if the comments would also copy over. They used to, up until mid-2021. For example, I have files I share for approval in a working project, that I copy into an ASSETS folder after approval

  17. Enable option to redact sensitive information manually via Annotations or automatically via Optimal Character Recognition (OCR).

    Enable option to redact sensitive information manually via Annotations or automatically via Optimal Character Recognition (OCR).

    E.g. Box Shield could add OCR functionality to Smart Access for DLP.

  18. Drag and drop files on Box Drive

    I can't drag and drop to move a file as easily as on google drive
    The all files folder should automatically expand when I plan to drop a file to move it to.

  19. Updated date and Uploaded date are not the same thing

    We would like to be able to retain the file updated date or modified date during file upload. Right now the updated date is the date file was uploaded which is not really the updated date and time from the local machine.

    This is very critical as updated date is very important to end users when migrating or uploading files to Box. Imaging thousands of files uploaded to Box all have the same uploaded date under Updated date column.

    Thank you!
