Support streaming uploads or appendable upload sessions (unknown final size)
I have a use case where data is generated continuously (sensor readings). I want to build a file in Box by streaming bytes over time and then finalizing the file when the session ends.
Currently, Box’s chunked upload API requires specifying a file_size up front and mandates a fixed total in each Content-Range header. This prevents uploading content when the final size is not known at the start of the session.
Request:
Add support for a streaming or appendable upload workflow, where:- A client can create an upload session without knowing the final file size
- Chunks can be uploaded incrementally…

Add Section Divider Lines and Blank Fields for Cleaner Forms
I would recommend adding divider lines to allow cleaner grouping or sectioning of fields in a form. It would also be helpful to have "blank" field for better organizing when adding fields in two columns but the number of fields for a particular topic is an odd number. Having a blank filler field would allow starting the next topic on the next row rather than beside a field that isn't related. This would make the form look cleaner and be easier for end-users to follow.

Couldn't see full group name
When collaborating, if the group name is long,
the part that doesn't fit in the UI gets truncated.
Is it possible to improve the UI so that the entire group name is displayed?
This happens both when collaborating and when viewing the collaboration list.ーーーーーーーーーーー

Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages.
Box Extract needs to be limited to run against x number of pages, not all pages. Customers often want to just use box extract to load documents and skip the indexing. These documents can be large, 100 pages, 500 pages, etc, but the indexing information may be only on the first 3 pages that is required. This request is to incorporate a way to limit how many pages box extract runs against per folder, or per metadata set, per Extract Agent. The key is when I upload a 1000 page document, I don't want that to eat up 1000 AI…

Display by name, Alphabetical as a Default. Necessary for our business!
It is 100% Necessary for our file Storage and Sharing needs for files to show up alphabetically BY DEFAULT. We just transferred over from Dropbox, and this is really annoying and a waste of time to have to set viewing each time we log in, and when we share files to have to explain to customers how to set their display. Display by name alphabetical should not only be an option, but a Default. Please make this available immediately. Our business model and client sharing workflow success depends on this. Thank you for implementing right away

Collaborator Permission Levels: Editable, No Downloadable
From a security standpoint, I would like the ability to edit in the desktop app but not download.
Now, if you can edit it, you can also download it.
セキュリティの観点から、 「デスクトップアプリでの編集は可能だが、ファイルのダウンロードは不可」という権限の提供をご検討いただきたく。
現状、 編集が可能な場合は ダウンロードが可能な権限のみとなる認識です。ご検討いただけますと幸いです。

We would like to see Box Hubs have a separate shared link permission setting
Currently, Hub shared links can be allowed from “Enterprise Setting” > “Content & Sharing”, but with the current settings, if Hub shared links are disabled, general folder and file shared links will also be restricted, which is very inconvenient.
Therefore, please consider making the shared link setting of the Hub independent, and allow shared links to be allowed for each individual Hub.【日本語】
現在Hubの共有リンクは、「管理コンソール」＞「コンテンツと共有」から許可できますが、現在の設定値ではHubの共有リンクを禁止すると、通常のフォルダとファイルの共有リンクにも制限がかかってしまい非常に不便です。
そのためHubの共有リンク設定を独立させ、Hub個別で共有リンクの許可を行えるよう検討をお願いします。11 votesThis suggestion is under consideration by the Product Team for future development, however, it is not on our roadmap. Please share additional feedback and use cases to help us understand the importance of this release.

Changing default columns view in File Explorer with Box Drive - Move or hide sync status
The recent 2.48.250 release has forced a new Sync column in File Explorer. This new column is fixed in position and can't be hidden. I, for one, don't care to have this column take us space in the Explorer as I have a smaller laptop screen.
When you select the column and hide in Explorer, it shows up at the next refresh back in the same position.
The integration with File Explorer should follow Windows 11 preferences and be adjustable just as OneDrive is.

Ability to exclude invitation restrictions in tenant settings in Hubs
We would like the ability to add folders with editor privileges in Hubs, even if only co-owners or higher can be invited in the tenant settings, so that it does not affect the invitation restrictions in the tenant settings.
Anticipate that many companies will not be able to change the invitation restrictions on the tenant side due to personnel issuances, security risk avoidance, etc.
Like to see this feature implemented, as it would improve the convenience of Hubs if there is a function to prevent tenant settings from affecting Hubs.テナント設定で共同所有者以上のみ招待可能な場合でも、Hubsでは編集者権限を持つフォルダを追加できるように、テナント設定の招待制限には影響しないようにする機能が欲しいです。
人事発令やセキュリティリスク回避等で、テナント側の招待制限を変更することができない企業は多い事が予想されます。
Hubsではテナント設定が影響しないようにする機能があれば、Hubsの利便性向上に繋がるかと思われますので本機能の実装を希望します。4 votes -
Allow Box AI summaries to display by default when a file is opened or selected
It would be helpful if Box AI could automatically show the summary panel by default when a user selects a file or opens it in preview.
Currently, users must manually trigger the AI to see summaries.
For workflows involving many files, default visibility of summaries would improve usability and make Box AI insights more accessible and efficient.4 votes -
We would like the ability to hide the “Download Report” button in Folder Insights.
Folder Insight reports can be output by specifying a folder of which you are the owner.
If you are using a closed folder tenant, the owners of managed folders are only users with administrator privileges, and end users do not own folders, so even co-owners cannot output folder insight reports.
If you actually specify a folder with permissions below that of the co-owner and output it, you will get an “Insufficient permissions to create report folder” error.
We would like to see this feature implemented to prevent such errors and confusion.フォルダインサイトのレポート出力先は自身が所有者となっているフォルダを指定することで出力可能となります。
クローズドフォルダのテナントを利用している場合、管理しているフォルダの所有者は管理者権限を持つユーザーのみとなり、
エンドユーザーにおいては所有するフォルダがないことから共同所有者でもフォルダインサイトのレポート出力はできません。

We would like to have a clear indication of whether a file request link has been issued for a folder.
Currently, it's not immediately clear whether a folder has a file request issued.
We would like to have an icon display, similar to a shared link icon, so that it is visually clear when viewing the folder that a file request link has been issued.

フォルダでファイルリクエストリンクが発行されているか分かるようにしたい現在、ファイルリクエストが発行されているフォルダかすぐにはわかりません。

"Favorites" option for applying signers to a document
If 90% of the sign documents you generate need to be signed by a unique person, but then by two internal people, it would be nice if you could select from a "favorites" list.
So, each sign document has a unique underlying document, but the signers are, for the most part, always the same. Rather than entering "tom smith, mary jones, john white" for each document, you could just select "AR Group" from a favorites list.3 votes -
Enhanced Folder Naming for Signature Links
Current Issue
When documents are issued via Box Sign signature links, the folders created during storage are named with dates only. We would like the ability to include document-identifying codes or keywords in folder names.Current behavior:
File names are preserved, but folders are subsequently named with dates only
When signature links are sent to multiple recipients, it becomes difficult to quickly identify which document belongs to which person
Lack of clear organization makes document management challenging
Proposed Enhancement
Folder naming should include:Signature recipient's name
Document-identifying keywords or codes
Customizable naming conventions
Business Impact
This enhancement would significantly improve…2 votes -

Request for Dynamic Session Timeout Control Based on SAML SessionNotOnOrAfter
We would like Box to reference the SessionNotOnOrAfter value in the SAML response and allow the session timeout to be set shorter than the tenant’s default value (and, if possible, longer as well).
Our intention is to have the IdP determine the security level based on factors such as device type and user type, and then shorten the session only when the risk is high, while allowing longer sessions when the risk is low, thereby enabling risk-based session management.

Forced termination of suspicious outbound collaboration
We request implementation of a method for administrators to forcibly cancel invitations received by users under their management.
While outbound collaboration in Box is free and convenient, it is also highly dangerous.
It can be exploited by attackers seeking to misplace files or spread malicious files by sending invitations, or by employees planning to leave who receive invitations from their personal accounts to extract information.While inbound collaboration allows logging, outbound collaboration does not even permit this, leaving administrators virtually powerless.
Currently, administrators can only take the following two actions against these highly dangerous behaviors:
① Control “future” outbound collaboration…1 vote
