  1. Folders and Files Classification in Content Manager Console

    Folder and File Classification should be shown in the content manager console so the admins would be able to know the kind of content they are dealing with.

  2. Need the ability for users to rename shared folders that will not affect the name for other users.

    Honestly the entire functionality of the shared folders within box could use an upgrade. We switched from Dropbox to Box because we thought it had more features and better for business, but it blows my mind that we could rename shared folders in Dropbox on a user level, and it does not affect other users that share the folder, but Box won't allow that? Make it very difficult for individual users to customize their folder structure and such in a way that works for them. It's way to restrictive.

  3. Associate Group with Shared Email Address

    In Enterprise User Management tools such as GSuite and Active Directory, it is very common to have a group specifically for Distribution lists or shared email inboxes.

    It would be helpful if, within Box groups, a group could be associated with such an email address.

    This email would be able to receive notifications when the group is granted access to a folder or assigned a task (another request I have seen).

    Important, this shared email address must not be associated with a system user account; otherwise a user seat would have to be used for the account, which isn't helpful.

  5. Box Web App Clicking on Files

    I've noticed with the recent update to the web ui, that you can no longer click on a file without box wanting to automatically wanting to open the file. In the past, you had options like download, delete, move, etc... Can an option be added to the admin center to re-enable this option for users? Thanks.

  6. Reports that allow you to see the history of apps added and removed from your account

    Currently, there is no way for admin to see what apps users are adding.
    Even if an app required by a tenant is set to "Add by default", the admin cannot see when it is removed by a user.

    We request that the history of apps added and removed from the account be added to the report so that it can be reviewed by the administrator.

    <アカウントのアプリの追加・削除履歴を確認できるレポート>
    現在ユーザーが追加しているアプリについて確認できる機能がありません。
    テナントで必要なアプリを「デフォルトで追加」に設定されていても、ユーザーによって削除されたときに管理者が確認することができません。

    管理者から確認できるようにアカウントのアプリの追加・削除履歴をレポートに追加することを要望します。

  7. Whitelist domains on External Collab folders

    We want the ability to be able to whitelist a domain on a specific folder for users for users of a business, within our External Collaboration folder which we use for our clients. EG, if the folder is to be collaborated with by our client "Acme", eg then:

    FOLDER: External Collaboration > Customer > ACME

    ACME Folder: Whitelist domain acme.com

  8. 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.

  10. When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.

    When I upload Excel to BoxSign, I want it to become PDF as per the print settings of Excel.

    For Example, a file created in Excel with the print settings set to A4 becomes 2page PDF files when uploaded to BoxSign.
    This can be avoided by converting the files to PDF before uploading them to BoxSign, but if all the files are converted and then uploaded, the man-hours and number of files increases, which raises concerns about operational efficiency and data management, so we would like to see improvements.

    ExcelをBoxSignにアップロードした際Excelの印刷設定通りにPDFになるようにして欲しい

    例えば、Excelで印刷設定をA4にあわせて作成したファイルがBoxSignにアップロードした際に2ページのPDFになります。
    BoxSignへアップロードする前にPDFに変換を行えば回避できますが、全て変換を行ってアップロードを行うと工数とファイル数が増えて、
    業務効率やデータ管理上の懸念点があるため改善を希望します。

  12. Approval Task With Box Relay Enhancements

    When allocating approval tasks in Box Relay, users are able to uncheck the "Invite the person in charge as a viewer" function.
    In addition, if "Invite users as viewers" is enabled, and the members in charge have been granted permission as members of a group, which prevent them from being invited to the file as viewers.

    Admin gets notified when someone tries to share something that they unauthorized to.

    E.g. drags and drops an "Internal Only" folder/file into an external folder.

  14. Ability to change the initials format in Box

    Initials are heavily used in Box and I want the ability to change the format of how these are displayed as currently the only option is first letter of first name and surname (Joe Doe becomes JD), for companies that use non-standard email addresses, initials are different.

  15. Box Sign - Make PDF form fields fillable

    Box Sign does not currently recognize embedded PDF form fields. You can add a text, date, checkbox, or signature field to a PDF document, but the original form fields are unavailable (but left intact).

    Use case: We ask our contractors to complete IRS W-9 forms using the standard IRS fillable PDF forms. If Box Sign could recognize the embedded fields in the IRS forms, our contractors could fill out, sign, and file the forms in one process. As it is, we will have to send them the fillable PDF form, ask them to fill it in and send it to…

  17. Editable shared link to take precendence over collaborator permission

    Collaborator permissions currently take precedence over shared link permissions. As a result, users accessing an editable shared links can't edit a file if they have viewer permission on the folder. In our case, we have an open folder accessible to all staff as viewer with all content accessible from our intranet. We would like to be able to create editable shared link for users to contribute to selected files.

  18. Sign accessible from embed widget

    Sign is currently not accessible from the embed widget. This is also not available though the folder view of the Salesforce integration or the Teams integration. It would be most useful if Sign was available in all contexts.

  19. Increase maximum image size for branding a File Request to above 1 MB

    Upload limit for Box File Request Company Logo Branding is only 1 MB. This is way too small when the average file size of a smartphone mobile phone camera picture is about 3MB, LinkedIn allows 8 MB and Google allows 5 MB.
