  1. Lock Sorting Settings of Files & Folders independently

    We would like to be able to lock the sorting settings of files in folders? If we sort the folders based on A-Z the files inside the folders swap to Z-A. We would want them to be fully independent from each other.

  2. Lack of reports on copy operations to external folders

    We strongly request the improvement of the display specification when the log of copying an item to an external tenant's folder is output to the report.

    In the current specification, when the destination folder is an external tenant, the report only shows the copied file as "External File".
    In other words, we can determine "who" copied "when" and "some file," but we cannot determine "where" and "what" was copied.

    We believe this is a major problem in monitoring and preventing information leaks.
    I thought it was one of Box's great strengths that most of the operation logs are stored and…

  3. Better sorting by relevance with search terms

    When I search for an exact file name, to find all copies of that file within a folder structure, the "See All Results" page does not put all the "hits" of that exact file name at the top of the list. I have to scroll down through many other files with partial hits in the name to find all copies. Why would it not sort by exact file names first, then partial file name matches, then contents ... ?

  4. Ability to color code folders per agency within an Enterprise account while in the web portal view.

    To clarify/differentiate different agencies/companies under our main Enterprise, we would love to have the ability to apply color coding to folders in order to make it easier for those individuals who have access to multiple companies.

    Thank you!

  5. Lock executed agreement file after signing is completed

    After signing is completed users can upgrade the version of the signed file with a new file. Could we add a feature to lock the file version after all parties have signed/declines

  6. Build native Box Search to also search the end of a text string, not only the beginning of a text string

    Build native Box Search to also search the end of a text string, not only the beginning of a text string.

    Specifically, my customer wants to search for a folder, ABCD1234, where searching for "ABCD" populates all folders with "ABCD" as the fore end of the nomenclature, but when searching for the tail end of the nomenclature (aka the unique, identifying text string), "1234," the specific full ABCD1234 folder is not populating in search results.

  7. Ask users to enter their email address before viewing a file

    Is there is a feature that requests/restricts a person who receives a file link to submit their email address in order to view the file. Sort of a Docsend killer.

    Because of the downstream impacts, we will not be solving this problem as requested. We will be looking at a more holistic approach to prevent unintended consequences of file operations.

  9. Ability to select external users who are collaborating on a folder to be notified of workflows created in Relay

    Currently, it is possible to set external users as notification recipients for workflows created in Relay only under certain conditions.

    Conditions:
     ・The folder/file is owned by the creator of the Relay Workflow.
     ・It is the external user who is invited to this folder/file that is set as the notification destination.

    There are many situations in which we want to send notifications to external users in Relay workflows.
    However, in a tenant running a closed folder configuration, it is rare that the workflow creator is the owner of the folder.

    Request:
    For managed users who are collaborating on folders and who…

  11. Creating a table of contents for files and folders for an end user

    For the end user to be able to create a table of contents report of a folder structure and share this report with others.

    BOX FOLDER NAME

    FIRST LEVEL FOLDER
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents

    FIRST LEVEL FOLDER
    Subfolder
    Subfolder contents
    Subfolder contents

    Anyone who has access to the folder should be able to view the folder report and potentially update the report.

  12. I want to be able to open a folder in File Explorer from Box.com

    I've used Dropbox previously, and there's a feature on the browser version that allows you to open a files containing folder in File Explorer on Windows or Finder on OSX. For Box, the only options to open something on your computer from the web version is with the file's native app. It would improve our workflow significantly if we were able to open a file folder on our computer from the Box.com browser.

    Thanks!

  13. Box Sign: Ability to change the position and size of items pre-set at the time of Sign request by the user who requested the sign.

    I would like to be able to change the position and size of items pre-set at the time of Box Sign request by the user who requested the sign.

    When a signature is made using a stamp in its current state, when the completed data is checked, the signature is leaning to the left and cannot be signed in the correct position.
    We would like the user who signs to be able to adjust the position.

    Box Signのリクエスト時に事前設定した項目の位置と大きさをサイン依頼されたユーザが変更できるようにしてほしい。
     
    現行の状態でスタンプを利用して署名した場合に、完成したデータを確認すると左寄りになってしまい正確な位置にサインができないため
    サインをするユーザー側で位置を調整出来るようにして欲しいです。

  14. Allow the tenant administrator to select the folder created by the API account as the owner.

    I want to allow the tenant administrator to select the folder created by the API account as the owner.

    Currently, when you log in as a tenant administrator, if you want to check the folders linked with Box for Teams, you cannot check all the files because you are not the owner.
    I would like to be able to select the owner of the Box folder generated in cooperation with Teams to be the tenant administrator so that management confirmation and control / log acquisition can be performed.

    ・APIアカウントで作成されたフォルダをテナント管理者も所有者と選択できるようにしたい。

    現在、テナント管理者でログインした際にBox for Teamsで連携したフォルダを確認したい場合に
    所有者でないためすべてのファイルを確認することができません。
    Teamsと連携して生成されるBoxフォルダの所有者をテナント管理者にする選択をできるようにして
    管理上確認や統制・ログの取得をおこなえるようにしたいです。

  15. Box Embed Should Support Additional Query String Parameters to Show/Hide Content

    Box Embed currently uses query string parameters to show/hide certain content, for example "showParentPath" and "showItemFeedActions". For our use-case, we would benefit greatly from expanding the supported query string parameters to hide additional elements from the iframe. Examples include the ability to hide the filename with dropdown menu (including the All Files and Folders hyperlink), the "Download" and "Share" buttons, the arrows that let you navigate between recently viewed files, and the "X" button that allows you to close out of the currently viewed document and be returned to the "All Files and Folders" view.

    By supporting additional boolean query…

  16. Box Relay: Enable API's so that I can re-assign workflows and/or task ownership to another person

    Box Relay: Enable API's so that I can re-assign workflows and/or task ownership to another person at scale.

    E.g. if someone is on holiday, sick, or leaves the company, we want to use API's to group together all of their existing workflows and/or tasks, and transfer those to a new person.

    Box Relay: Please enable the ability to group all owned workflows and/or assigned tasks from one person, and transfer that group of workflows and/or tasks to a different person.

    Today, I can transfer ownership of a single workflow or re-assign a single task from one person to another, but if someone goes on vacation, is sick, or leaves the company and they own multiple workflows or have multiple tasks assigned to them, then today we cannot group these together and transfer them all at once. Instead, we have to transfer workflow ownership and re-assign tasks one-by-one-by-one-by-one-by-one......

    We have 1000's of…

  18. Compatibility with MadCap Flare PDF Output (Fix copy/paste in preview mode)

    In Box.com preview mode of a PDF that was built via MadCap Flare, when you copy text and paste it somewhere, it removes all of the spaces in the text and makes it one big string (see example below). The copy/paste feature works fine from PDFs built out of InDesign and in all downloaded PDFs. This has been a common issue for our Support reps who want to simply copy/paste text from a previewed product documentation PDF into a Support case without having to download it each time.

    For example:

  19. Request to increase the maximum number of users to be enabled with [Enable for select users and groups] for [Mark for Offline] in Box Drive.

    I want to enable [Mark for Offline] for Box Drive and release it for some users. However, the number of users we want to register exceeds the upper limit of 100, so we would like to request to increase the upper limit of [Enable for select users and groups]. We believe this update would improve the useability and increase the efficiency among the users.

    (Japanese)
    Box Driveの [Mark for Offline]機能を有効にし、一部のユーザーに対して有効化したいが、上限値となる100名を超えて登録したいため、[一部のユーザーに対して有効化]選択時の上限値を増やして欲しい。
    利便性も向上し、業務効率化に繋がるため、実現に向けてぜひ対応してほしい。
