Native Workday integration
Box does not have a native Workday integration today. This would be massively valuable and would lead to huge upside for Box.

Allow for multiple primary admins
There are several functions within the Admin Console that are only accessible to the primary admin. Setting up SSO for example requires the primary admin, and co-admins are unable to integrate with SSO. In many environments there will not be a single administrator with privileged access across multiple systems, which means the primary admin role will need to be assigned and re-assigned multiple times to perform necessary tasks.
To promote a secure environment where tasks may need to be performed by multiple administrators, I would request either 1) admin console allow for multiple users in the primary admin role, or 2) the co-admin role be empowered to perform necessary tasks without becoming the primary admin.

Make future Terms of Service updates accessible to non-visual users/available on a.box
We have blind and low vision members of our Box team. They typically use a.box to conduct business with us. These team members lost access to files with the recent Terms of Service update (March 2023) and I'm told by those users that a.box did not offer any explanation, and the Terms of Service acceptance form was not available to them on the platform. They had to log in to the main Box.com platform to find that form, and it was not accessible for non-visual users there. Those users required sighted assistance to complete the form and renew access to their materials.
I know that Box aims to provide accessible services (and we rely on them to do our work), so I'm hoping the development team will aim to make future updates of this nature available on a.box and/or Box in an accessible manner.

Stamp templates with Box standard features
Stamp templates with Box standard features
I want you to provide a stamp template with Box standard function.
* Currently, it is necessary to prepare an image for an electronic seal stamp by yourself, which is a hassle.
If the person signing is a great person, he cannot perform difficult operations.Box標準機能でスタンプのテンプレートを提供してほしい。

Ability to moderate/pre-validate comments
Some files in Box have a very wide diffusion (All the company so about 1,5/2K people).
We would like to moderate the comments.
The function we want is a folder parameter stating that all comments on any file in this folder would be validated by the owner ou co-owner of the folder.1 vote -
API Call to return all items within the parent directory.
It would be extremely helpful if you could call the box api to return a complete list of the existing directory in an account. For example, the call could return a json file that contained a usable layout of folders within folders, down to the individual file level. Automation for file operations could be built on this. It would remove the need to recursively call the API to get down to the lowest level of folders to find files.

Download with Metadata
I would like the option to download a file with its metadata added as a cover page.
It wouldn't need to be formatted nicely, just anything that keeps the metadata easy to see once the file is downloaded.

Allow BoxDrive search to be limited to files and folders names
The current BoxDrive search will search the contents of the file as well.
We would like to be able to narrow down the search target when searching, because sometimes it is enough to search only the file name or folder name.
(In Japanese)
現在のBoxDriveの検索はファイルの中身まで検索対象となっています。
ファイル名やフォルダ名だけ検索で十分な場合があるため、検索時に検索対象を絞れるようにしてほしいです。6 votes -
Customize Banner notifications in Box web UI
All our users (not just Admin accounts) have been getting more banner notifications regarding new features being rolled out and/or Box events that will be occurring.
We'd like to have the capability to control and suppress banner notifications on the Box web UI.
Features announcements and/or Box events being broadcasted via these banners are not applicable to our users as how they are communicated. It is setting incorrect expectations and miscommunicating what features and functionality we are supporting as an enterprise within Box.

Box Sign - Make PDF form fields fillable
Box Sign does not currently recognize embedded PDF form fields. You can add a text, date, checkbox, or signature field to a PDF document, but the original form fields are unavailable (but left intact).
Use case: We ask our contractors to complete IRS W-9 forms using the standard IRS fillable PDF forms. If Box Sign could recognize the embedded fields in the IRS forms, our contractors could fill out, sign, and file the forms in one process. As it is, we will have to send them the fillable PDF form, ask them to fill it in and send it to us, and then send it the filled form back to them for signature.

We would like to be able to register a group in the BoxSign configuration even if the group's permission setting is not "Administrators only
Currently, when we try to register a group in the Sign configuration, we can register the group if the group's permission setting is "Administrators only", but not if the group's permission setting is "Company" or "Group Members".
Registration location [Enterprise Settings > BoxSign > Edit Configuration > Sign Configuration].
We are using "Company" and "Group Member" as the permission setting for groups to be able to respond to group invitations, etc. outside of the management console, so we would like these permission settings to be able to be registered in the Sign configuration.<グループの権限設定が「管理者のみ」以外の場合もBoxSignの構成でグループを登録できるようにしてほしい>
現在Signの構成でグループを登録しようとするとグループの権限設定が「管理者のみ」の場合は登録できるが、
「会社」や「グループメンバー」の場合は登録できない。【Enterprise設定>BoxSign>構成の編集>Signの構成】

View right holder to download the watermarked files from box drive.
that way, people with view right do not need to go box.com website and download each file.
+ it will be great if they could download including folder trees with watermarked files(Pdf, ppt, excel etc).
Take this as consideration

Box Sign import tool request for migrating content over from DocuSign I.E. metadata, saved PDF's etc.
Implement a way for an import tool they can use to bring executable PDF's from their users on DocuSign to make it easier for maintaing some of these PDF's and metadata, or will he need to login to each user on DocuSign, download their user executed PDF’s and re-upload them to Box?
