  1. Allow group admins the ability to invite lite users as managed

    We use the group admin functionality to allow project teams to manage their Box access. They have hundreds of projects at a time so it is not feasible for the Box global admins to manage this onboarding/offboarding (which occurs on a weekly basis). Group admins have the ability to create new users as a managed user but can not invite existing lite users, which places a bottleneck on IT to invite these users in. Alternatively error messaging around this could be updated to specify why the users can't be added (currently it is not clear).

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. However, we would like more information and details from the requester on whether or not having the ability to invite external users to groups could solve this problem.

  2. Microsoft Sheet View

    I would like the sheet view that Microsoft recently released for excel online to be enabled. We share online files constantly and its extremely difficult to function when we cant filter without filtering for the entire group.

  3. User dropdown for Box Forms

    In Box Forms it would be very convenient to have a User dropdown field.

    Many of our workflows have a user fill out a form, which is then rendered into a document and sent for approval - and often, approvers are not static (e.g. their manager).

    It would be very convenient if they could select another Box user with a similar experience to the collaboration dialog, or when you're adding to a Box Sign - a few characters from their name or email will show matching users. This field would then expose both the user's name and their email as…

    We'd like to set up controls to prevent certain groups (like Investment Banking) from collaborating with users in a different group (Research).

    This is currently not planned. We are looking into restrictions that admins could set at this level, but there is nothing planned on the roadmap for this as of now.

  5. Select user group on BOX Rleay's workflow

    When creating a workflow using BOX Relay, groups cannot be set as recipients in the notification options. When notifying a large number of people, it is time-consuming to enter the address for each person, so it would be nice to be able to set groups.

    <Request for addition of a function to narrow down groups using the filter conditions of [Users and Groups] in the management console in the new UI>
    In the old UI, it was possible to narrow down the search by group using the "Users and Groups" filter condition in the management console.
    However, with the new UI, it is not possible to narrow down groups using filter conditions.

    We set expiration dates on Box accounts and delete accounts when the application deadline has passed or expired.
    If there were a large number of accounts, the users to…

  8. User or Groups listed in the Content Manager sharing window

    When inviting users and groups in the Content Manager, I would like to know more corresponding email addresses and group names listed in the Content Manager sharing window.
    Currently, up to five users or groups appear in the Content Manager.

    It is very inconvenient for tenants with many similar email addresses or group names.

    Happy to review. Can you provide more clarity on the use case/reason here? Are you hitting a scale issue, or is there some data you’d like added to the report?

  12. Ability to create a custom group name that will be displayed on the collaborator list without affecting the SSO integration

    Currently, groups only have names unlike user accounts that have names and aliases. However, since we have SSO groups enabled, we have found that is impossible to rename groups without causing issues.

    Because of SSO groups, we had to have a specific naming convention for our groups so we can know which groups to send to Box. All our group names begin with COMPANYBOXPD and then the corresponding team name. Since these groups are shown as collaborators, it will be nice to be able to edit the group to display a…

    Thank you for the submission! This is a reasonable request. However, we will need to hear from additional customers before prioritizing this request.

  13. Box Hubs - Ability to Share Hub with All Managed Users

    We have a number of Hubs that are geared towards providing information to all employees. As such, it would be great to be able to share a Hub with all managed users. In addition, it would be helpful to have the ability to share any file or folder with all managed users without having to create and manage and all users group or adding multiple groups to a file/folder to accomplish this.

  15. Reporting the monthly MAU usage for each application

    In the large enterprise, many customers charge the usage of Platform API call and MAU to the department, group company, subsidiary which owns Box Platform based custom application.

    But currently Box doesn't provide the report to know the usage of MAU per customer application. So I strongly request to add this to the existing report or add new report.

  16. "Optimize Candidate Group Sort Order for Invite Modal Based on Exact Matches"

    Improve the sort order of candidate groups on invite modal

    Currently, candidate users/groups that partially match the texts I entered are displayed in the ascending order.

    For e.g., let's say we have the 4 groups each titled "Enterprise Sales team", "Commercial Sales team", "Online Sales team", "Sales team".

    With current design, when I type "Sales team" in the textbox, candidate groups are returned in the below order (every group that contains "Sales team" is returned…

  17. Ability to comment on Box Relay approval tasks

    Currently, there is no function to enter comments when executing approval tasks using Box Relay.
    We are currently using email and the Mention function, but this is inconvenient, so we would like to have the ability to enter comments at the time of approval or rejection.
    Having a comment when approving or rejecting a task will help us communicate with users, so we would appreciate it if you could add this as a feature.


    現在Box Relayを利用した承認タスク実施時に、コメントを記載する機能がありません。
    メールやメンション機能を現在は利用しておりますが、不便なため、承認時または却下時にコメントを入力する機能が欲しいです。
    承認時や却下時にコメントがあることで、ユーザーへの意思疎通ができますので、機能として追加をいただけますと幸いです。

  18. Request to add an Address book feature when adding or @mentioning users.

    Currently, there are only 5 suggestions displayed when adding, @mentioning users.

    There are more than 5 users with the same name and it is hard to filter out the exact user.

    We would like an address book feature so we can filter out the users to invite. Address book should include user name, Organization name, groups, etc.

    This is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers.

    We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.

  19. Make API rate limits more sophisticated, especially for large enterprises

    When working with a Box Enterprise that has tens of thousands of users, scripts designed to do things like user information syncing, group syncing, or user provisioning/deprovisioning often run into real issues with the Box API rate limits.

    Some calls (e.g. downloading or uploading a file) are clearly significantly more resource-intensive than others (e.g. getting a user’s aliases). The method Google has implemented for the Gmail API (see https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota) seems like a really great way to balance the need to protect the back-end systems against the need for increased performance for less-intensive calls. It would be nice if Box…

  20. Allow Relay notifications to include manually entered email addresses instead of limiting the list to existing collaborators

    Currently the Relay system will only allow notifications to be sent to existing collaborators or users. There should be a way to allow any manually entered email address to be a notification destination. This would allow for group or shared email accounts to be a notification destination. Group email addresses or shared email accounts may not exist as specific collaborators but still could be useful for notifications.
