Export all data belonging to a Custodian on Legal Hold
There is currently no way through Box to export all of a user's data for offline preservation and legal review. This workflow is necessary for the EDRM model, as the files may still be altered while under Legal Hold.

Search for Users Currently on Legal Hold
Currently we are dealing with a matter that has spiraled into a huge undertaking because of the way Legal Holds are implemented. Our client has enabled over 25 Legal Hold policies, each one has an average of 50 users. We have a list of over 20 custodians that we need to know which Legal Hold they are currently on, if any.
There are two ways to implement this:
1 - Allow Admins to see whether the custodian (or any of their data) is currently on a Legal Hold policy, which Legal Hold Policy it is currently on, and why it…1 vote -
Box for Outlook (app) - Insert link at character
The Box for Outlook app (deployed through Microsoft 365 admin centre - not as part of Box for Office), inserts links as an image and file name at the bottom of the email that is being created.
This is an awful user experience for recipients. It would be better to insert links in the same way as the Box for Office Outlook add-in works. This allows putting a link at the character point.

Enable ability to edit Google Docs, Sheets, Slides via Box integration without requiring login aka anonymously
Enable ability to edit Google Docs, Sheets, Slides via Box integration without requiring login aka anonymously.
Even when the link is configured to "people with the link can edit," external collaborators are still required to log into both Box and Google Workspace in order to edit Google Sheets, Docs, and Slides via the Box integration, which is way too much friction and strongly discourages use.
I strongly recommend that we offer optionality. While highly security conscious departments (e.g. IT, InfoSec, HR, legal, finance) might require an audit history with details about who edited content, which requires people to login; conversely,…

Update m.box.com address for shared link previews on smartphones
Please change the specification so that it does not change to the m.box.com address when previewing the shared link from smartphone.
<Background>
・We want to share the preview screen easily to many unspecified users.
・But there are some shared links that can't be previewed on smartphone.
・The target shared link can be previewed successfully from the PC.
・The reason is that when you access the shared link from smartphone, the address is always changed to m.box.com.
・You can get around this problem by getting a free Box account (Individual) and installing Box for Mobile.
・However, this method requires some preparation…3 votes -
improve box drive file listing when navigating to a new folder
Currently as you navigate Box Drive and hit a new folder there can be a noticeable delay before the content listing of the folder is displayed and for that time (can be several seconds or more) the impression is left that the directory is empty. The user is left trying to determine if they need to wait or if there are actually no files or folders within the folder.
An improvement would to either maintain a local cache of the folder/file hierarchy and then download the actual file when it's selected for open. Or a predictive recursive tree query when…

Open files from web app in Box client
Oftentimes our team shares the location of a file within Box by pasting a link into, e.g. Asana. Clicking that link opens the item in the Box web app. There's no way to open that location within the Box client on MacOS other than looking at the file path on the web, then manually browsing to that location in Finder. I'd like a link you can click from the web app that reveals the location of that file within Finder.

More customization of Box for Teams V2 Usage
We were wondering if we could partially turn on Box for Teams V2. Specifically, we want to turn off the option to create the "Box Files" tab but leave on the options to share Box content directly in groups chats or channel posts. The fact that it's set up as an all-or-nothing feature for now is holding us back from using it at all.

Box Shutdowns down early during shutdown, so MS Word docs with changes can't be saved if shutdown aborted
This problem plagues me onace a week or so. When Windows 10 is shutting down, Box Drive shutdowns down early before Windows asks to save opened changed docs - so MS Word docs with changes can't be saved if shutdown aborted. I end up having to save locally, reboot, then put the file into Box, then shutdown a second time. Painful, especially at the end of the day.
Proposal - work with Microsoft on a way to delay the Box shutdown point - until after the cancel shutdown message occurs...1 vote -
Ability to change order of Favorite/Collection
I would like to change the order of the content inside of Favorite/Collection freely so I can show the mostly used/viewed content on the top or organize it in the way that is easier to see.

Relay：Users who have already been invited in a group will not be invited with "Invite assignees as Viewers/Editors"
[Background]
A new feature has been added to Relay called "Invite assignees as Virwers/Editors".
"Invite assignees as Virwers/Editors" are sent to users who have already been invited in the group.
This is confusing because additional invitations are carried out to users who have already been invited.
Furthermore, operationally, this requires the collaboration to be removed from the relevant file each time.
*As a company rule, we are not allowed to collaborate with individuals individually, except in groups to which they have been previously invited by Admin.[Request]
Users who have already been invited to a group should not be invited.…

Increase capacity of the recycle bin to be unlimited.
I want the capacity of the recycle bin to be unlimited.
If the number of items in the recycle bin exceeds a certain value,
the page will not be displayed properly as a "scale limit".I've heard that adding "?usemarker=true" to the end of the URL of the recycle bin page makes it accessible.
However, there are some restrictions on the operation, and I would like to see the limit raised or made unlimited.ごみ箱の容量を無制限にしてほしい
ごみ箱内のアイテム数が一定値を超えると「規模の限界」としてページが正常に表示されない仕様かと思います。
ごみ箱ページのURLの最後に「?usemarker=true」を追加することでアクセスが可能になるということですが、
操作に制限があることもあり、この限界ラインを上げる/無制限にするといった改修を希望します。10 votes -

Display error when entering unsupported characters when renaming folders and files
When creating a new folder or file, if you include characters not supported by Box (other than Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane characters), receive an error.
However, when renaming, I can name files and folders using characters other than BMP.
(After renaming a folder or file, the character will automatically change to "_" after a while.)Please allow the same error to be displayed when an unsupported character is entered when renaming a folder or file,as when a new character is created.

＜フォルダ名・ファイル名の変更時にサポートされていない文字を入力するとエラーを表示させる＞現在、フォルダやファイル作成時にBoxでサポートされてるUnicodeの基本多言語面 (BMP)以外の文字を入力するとエラーが表示されます。
しかし、名称変更時にはBMP以外の文字を使用したファイル名・フォルダ名を付けることができます。
(変更後しばらくすると自動的に「_」変わります。)サポートされていない文字を入力したときに、新規作成と同じようにエラーを表示できるようにしてください。

Ability to view reports as a group administrator
I would like to see a fix for the error that occurs when a group administrator displays a report.
If you try to view the report as a group administrator, you may get the error message [Unexpected error.] error may occur.
The current workaround is to run a report.
We use the report function when we need to take immediate action for recovery, but if we use [Run], which takes a long time to output, the action will be delayed, which is a problem for our business.
Therefore, we request that the function of displaying reports be migrated to the…3 votes -
Box Shield - Internal users on lists
Would like the ability to add internal users in addition to external collaborators to Shield lists. Right now we can only apply the Shield access controls to external collaborators outside our EID. We would like the lists to be able to b applied to our internal users as well to create policies around specific users and groups. Would provide much needed guardrails for the business groups inside our instance

File counts do not refresh often enough for our needs
The file counts within the webapp do not update regularly enough.
We need to be able to see if there are files in folders and if so, how many, without having to look inside each folder.3 votes
