Box for Outlook - Allow Configurable Setting that will autocovert an attachment to a link when over a certain size
Sharefile's Outlook add-in allowed for you to define a size threshold for attachments. When that threshold was reached, it would automatically upload the attachments to Sharefile and then insert the link to the file(s)
This feature made it simple to share larger documents, or multiple documents that would cause bounce-back emails for trying to send an email with too large of size. This was also much quicker than taking the time to create a new folder, upload the documents, then attach the links for those documents to the email.
I understand that this would require some other types of decisions…

Security Control - Download and Print Restriction, possibility for Owners/Co-owners and Editors exceptions
Security Control - Download and Print Restriction, possibility for Owners/Co-owners and Editors to be excluded from this restriction.
Currently, for managed users it's possible to restrict all users except Owners/Co-owners and Editors.
It would be beneficial to have a similar option for restricting external users1 vote -
Convert Box Drive File to Box Link when Emailing Copy of File
We use Box to store company documents, and most people prefer to work with the Box files natively on Windows via Box Drive. The issue is when someone wants to circulate a copy of a file stored on box. The standard practice is to drag a copy of the document from Windows Explorer to an Outlook email. This results in a copy of the document, so future collaborators are not editing the Box document, but rather a copy.
This is a common feature in most established DMS products, where the user is asked if they want to upload the actual…

Enhanced Granular Access Controls for External Collaborators
Current Limitation:
- Existing shared link and external collaborator settings apply a uniform 30-day restriction across all external users
- No ability to create differentiated access rules for trusted partners or affiliated organizationsProposed Feature:
Implement a multi-tier external collaboration access control system that allows:
1. Configurable access duration and permissions based on organizational relationship
2. Ability to create exception groups with extended or permanent access
3. Granular control to distinguish between:
- Completely external users (standard 30-day restriction)
- Trusted partners/affiliated organizations (customizable access duration)
- Specific trusted domains with distinct access rulesUse Case Example:

Request new report by file extension
While you can check rough file types from the storage in admin insights, there are many situations in operations where you need to understand capacity and file counts at the extension level. I would like to request a report that can show file sizes by extension. I also want it to support filtering by owner.
管理者インサイトのストレージから大まかなファイルタイプを確認できますが、運用では拡張子の粒度で容量や件数を把握したい場面が多くあります。拡張子ごとのファイルサイズを確認できるレポートの提供を希望します。所有者ごとのフィルタリングにも対応してほしいです。

Have "View" functionality available when selecting "include sub-folders"
At this time, when running a report and toggling on the "include subfolders" option, the "View" option is not supported. A "No matching results found" message appears or the previewed actions don't take the selected folders into consideration.
The generated report does show the correct actions with the selected filters, but there's a need for better previewing before running the report. This will allow admins to have a clearer understanding of what will be in the final report.

Add per-role cap for external collaborator invitations at the enterprise and group level
Proposed solution
Add a Maximum External Collaboration Role setting in Admin Console > Enterprise Settings > Content & Sharing that:-Caps the highest role a managed user can grant to external collaborators(or internal as well).
-Removes higher roles from the invite dropdown so the limit is visible at the point of action.
-Applies globally with optional overrides per group, per user, and per folder (respecting "most restrictive wins").Why it matters
This separates "can invite" from "what they can grant", a standard pattern in enterprise content platforms and a common ask from security and compliance teams. Letting admins enable broad…1 vote -

Custom ready-sign link landing page
We use Ready-Sign Links for an Education Assistance program. It would be very helpful if we could customize the landing page when we create the template:
- Colors
- Logo
- Text to introduce what’s it aboutThe benefit is that if we could do this when creating the RSL Template, we would not need to coordinate with our IT/website owners on adapting or creating a new page where this link lives. Even simple branding items like this enhance our end users' experience and reduce confusion or hesitation.

Validate Form fields in Box Forms via field matching
For Bxo Forms, it would be critical for us to have form validation fields that require two fields to be matched. Simply, this can be used in scenarios where someone must enter an email twice to ensure that the email address is correct and without typos.
This would then provide greater assurance that Box Sign workflows we have set up will be sent to the right individual rather than bouncing because they had a typo.

Add ability to add a custom image for the banner on File Request pages like is available on Box Hubs
Please add the ability to upload a custom image for the banner on File Request pages just as you do on Hubs. This would solve for the issue of the tiny logo area available for File Request pages and would also allow for a more seamless transition on different pages in Box (Hubs and File Requests for example)

Re-add capability to get more custom colors (including Hex Value) for File Request page banner
Very recently a customization was removed from Box File Request theme settings that our managed users (about 3700 currently) used to use frequently. This was the ability to choose from the whole spectrum of colors (getting as specific as Hex Value) for the banner on File Request pages.
Our users own their own businesses, and the current selection of colors sometimes does not always correspond well to the logo image that they have uploaded. This makes the page not look professional and lowers the validity of our users' businesses. Please re-add this capability soon!1 vote -

Allow users to save column width settings in folder view (Box Web and Box Drive)
Description:
Currently, when viewing folders in Box (both Web and Box Drive), the default column widths for fields like "Name" and "Modified Date" are too narrow. Users must manually adjust the column widths every time they open a folder. However, these adjustments are not saved, and the view resets to the default narrow widths.
This causes inconvenience and reduces productivity, especially for users who frequently work with long file names or need to sort by date.
Feature Request:Enable users to save their preferred column widths in folder views.
Apply saved settings persistently across sessions and folders.

Change default sidebar view
Since BoxAI was released, when previewing a document from the Box Web the sidebar defaults to BoxAI. I would like the ability in my settings to pick what sidebar page presents as default. Further, it would be great to pick if the document preview opens with the sidebar opened or collapsed.

I would like the display position of the "Hide this folder" menu on BoxDrive to be changed.
The "Hide this folder" feature has been made possible on BoxDrive, but cases of accidental folder hiding due to misoperation have been occurring. We believe one of the reasons is that it is located among frequently used menus like "Share" and "Update folder."
We hope for an improvement in changing the display position of the "Hide this folder" menu. Alternatively, it would be great if we could have a setting option to disable the "Hide this folder" menu altogether.
Thank you very much for your consideration.

Admin Console - Pending Users
It would be nice if we there was a tab that showed Pending Collaborations and a way to filter by email address. We recently had the need to remove five email addresses from all folders they were invited to, but we had to choose to either traverse hundreds of folders or delete the main folders that we knew they were in.
Additionally, this could also be something offered via the API, perhaps the request can require the user email address and what collaboration state(s) you want returned. That way we could have easily specified an email address and pending, received…
