Custom collaboration expiration periods for individual folder collaborators
Currently, the only options for collaboration expiration on a folder is set at an enterprise level.
The request is multipart, for the options to
1) Set a custom collaboration expiration period at the folder level only (regardless of what the enterprise setting is)
2) Set different expiration periods (e.g. 30 days vs 60 days) for different collaborators or groups within the folder64 votes -
Augment existing collaborator permissions in inherited subfolders
Scenario:
Folder A is shared with User X with Viewer permission
Folder B is a subfolder of Folder A, on which User X requires Editor permissionAccording to support, the only way to accomplish this in the web UI is to first remove User X as a collaborator on Folder A, add them as an Editor on Folder B, and then re-add them as a Viewer on Folder A
This is clunky, annoying, and results in a lot of extra notifications.
Clearly this is supported by the underlying file system because you can do it directly with the Box CLI:

Enable Sharing Box Automate Workflows with User Groups
Currently, Box Automate workflows can be shared with individual users. We would like to request an enhancement that enables workflows to be shared with user groups.
This feature would reduce reliance on specific individuals and support team-based workflow management. In situations where the workflow owner leaves the company, changes roles, or becomes unavailable, other members of the group could continue to manage and maintain the workflow without disruption. This would improve operational continuity and reduce administrative overhead.2 votes -

Ability for end users (non admins) to adjust metadata
As Box is evolving more into metadata driven workflows for digital asset library use cases, we need the ability for end users (non admins) to be able to adjust metadata templates specific to their use case or business unit. For example, we'd like to have a champion from Marketing be able to adjust JUST the metadata templates specific to their group, not any metadata templates related to Legal or Sales.

Ethical Walls - enhancement to Information Barriers for neutral site scenarios
Make information barriers work in neutral site scenarios. Where Group A and Group B can't collaborate each other, But if Group C invites Group A and Group B into their folder, the two groups can collaborate in the same space.

Ability to srt/arrange by in any aspect of Box ie files/folders or even users/groups etc.
It would be helpful to be able to sort/arrange by in every aspect of Box. One example would be managing collaborators in a folder.
For instance, if I want to add access by group, and remove all individual users, to do so I have to compare the collaborator list to the group listing and remove the individual user since they are added by group already. I cannot remove all individual users en masse because some of those individually added users must stay as they are not in one of the groups. But I do not have the ability…

Groups visibility for end users
Allow users to see which groups they are a part of and who is in them. Potential workaround provided here: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-How-To-Forum/Box-Groups-Visibility-for-Users/m-p/26075/highlight/true#M2052
If some businesses want this restricted, this could be an Enterprise checkbox feature?

Function to disable the display of the login authentication screen for Box for Microsoft Office co-editing features on a per-user basis.
The following is a request regarding the seamless login feature.
https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355To avoid displaying the login authentication screen, we understand that enabling the co-editing feature for only certain users in the tenant settings will resolve the issue.
However, if the number of users enabling or disabling the co-editing feature increases, managing user and group additions or removals through tenant settings each time becomes extremely cumbersome and impractical.
Implementing this feature enables end users to handle issues immediately on their own, reducing the burden on administrators.下記シームレスログイン機能に関する要望です。
https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/44224534926355ログイン認証画面を表示させないためには、テナント設定で一部のユーザーにのみ共同編集機能を有効にすれば回避できると認識しています。
但し、共同編集機能を有効/無効にするユーザーが増えたりした場合に都度テナント設定からの制限ではユーザーやグループの出し入れ等の操作が非常に手間となり現実的ではありません。
本機能を実装することでエンドユーザー自身で即時に対応できるようになり管理者の負担を減らすことができます。21 votes -
Deleted accounts: Retrieve and restore any previous collaboration relationships
Allow for a Point in Time recovery.
We inadvertently de-provisioned a group of users and then re-provisioned them. Upon re-provisioning, we want Box to be able to restore the user collaboration points to how they existed prior.
6 votesThis is not currently planned as it is an edge case. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Additional Device Trust granularity
We would like to do an ownership check (domain or cert presence) for certain groups of users but not ALL users. We would like variability by user/group: e.g. users to touch tax documents must work on company-owned device, while most employees must have non-ownership checks (like disk encryption).
6 votesThis capability has been released. Feel free to reach out to us if you need further details on enablement.

More detailed error handling with sync errors
We have a user who is on Box Drive that has had several sync errors come up on his Box Drive client over the last week, but when he clicks on the info icon next to the s"9 items with sync errors message" it just gives them a generic error message with no details about which files can't be synced or how long they haven't been synced. I don't know if there's an existing solution for this, but thought I'd mention it here.

Password Protected Folders
Would love to be able to password protect certain folders within an unprotected folder. Since permissions "waterfall", I am unable to have a private folder within a public one. After reading the forums, this would be a very useful and widely used feature for businesses who want to limit access to folders to certain groups.

Invite Box Groups from Another Tenant
Currently, when inviting users who belong to a different tenant to our tenant, each user must be invited individually. This process is time-consuming and inefficient.
We would like the ability to invite users from another tenant by group, rather than having to invite them one by one.（InJapanese）
別テナントからBoxグループを招待したい現状別テナントに所属しているユーザを弊社テナントへ招待する場合、1ユーザずつ招待する必要があり、対応に時間がかかり非効率です。
ユーザーを1人ずつ招待するのではなく、別テナントのユーザをグループ単位で招待できる機能を希望します。3 votes -
Visually denote already shared folders as in Shared Folders interface for Group Admins.
When adding folders to groups in new interface, a list of all folders is shown including folders that have already been added. This is confusing and can cause additional workflow, having to go back and forth to see what has and hasn't been added.
1 voteThis suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the experience to manage users before we add enhancements to the group management process.

Add User Groups as viewer to an Admin report
When generating a report (such as collaborations report), I'd like to be able to add a user group as viewer in addition to being able to add a user account. We have decentralized content management, and doing so would allow be to schedule a monthly collaborations report shared to a user group with the content admins. I can't do so for a user, as there is a risk the users changes role and would not anymore be authorized to access the report.

【Box Relay】About approval rejection
Relayにて承認依頼を拒否した場合、理由を記載できるようコメント欄を追加してほしい
現状、理由を記載する箇所がないため別途コメントのメンションやメールにて連絡する必要があり二度手間となっているためIf Relay rejects an approval request, please add a comment field to write the reason.
Currently, there is no place to write the reason, so you have to contact us via a separate comment mention or email, which is a hassle.4 votes -
New type of user - Managed External User
Box users need a way to: authenticate and manage external users + invite them to collaborate in a more efficient manner, similar to how it is done with managed users via groups.

Pause and Resume Uploads or downloads to or from Box
The ability to Pause Downloads + Uploads so that Resource intensive tasks on other software can be carried out on a single computer/device without being slowed down by Box Transferring large amounts of data to/from the device to cloud. The ability to resume Downloads + Uploads after resource intensive tasks are completed.
Not everyone/every company has the budget to have expensive "workhorse" computers or Gigabit internet (not to mention a lot of places dont even have gigabit internet. (Im lucky enough to have access to both where I work and I STILL run into issues from time to time)
