Ability to invite external unmanaged users into Box Apps
We are requesting a new feature that allows external (unmanaged) users to be invited into Box Apps.
Use Case Example:
A law firm wants to share categorized legal documents with their clients through Box. Currently, Box Apps enable internal users to view and manage files with rich metadata, making it easy to organize and automate workflows. However, clients cannot access these metadata views directly. Customers should have the ability to view this structure and even work with it to launch automations and processes, as well as search their documents more easily.8 votes -
Restrict Use of AI by External Collaborators
Currently an external collaborator can run a query on collaborated content if both enterprises have AI enabled (plus a few other restrictions). Create a path, potentially via Shield, to disable the ability to query externally.

Enabling Document Tab creation in a Box G Doc.
Currently when creating a GDoc from box there is no ability to create Document Tabs, and it advises to save the doc as a GDoc, which is technically already the file format. Can this feature be enabled? It would be useful for project management without our company.

It would be useful to be able to exclude certain users (such as Admins) from the Notifications (specifically for downloads) so that the user does not get a notice. Example use case is in a DLP investigation or tools used, triggers a notice which we may not want visible to that end user.

Addition of Hong Kong Region
Some customers expanding their business in China or neighboring regions require a local data center for operational and compliance reasons. Adding a Hong Kong region would potentially broaden both customer usage and our proposal opportunities in these markets.

In Doc Gen
In Doc Gen I would like to be able to conditionally display an item in a list of items based on evaluation of an item property value or values using the standard evaluation rules. For example,
{{tablerow contact in case.contacts}}
{{if contact.includeContact == "Yes"}}
Dear {{contact.firstName}} {{contact.lastName}}
{{endIf}}

Create Doc Gen templates from PDF
I have had multiple customers and partners ask for the capability to build Doc Gen templates from PDF documents (existing and non-existing). This is a capability that would help advance the adoption of our new offering.
4 votesAbility to generate new documents using pre-tagged/interactive PDF templates is on the roadmap.

Create JSON file from Form
It would be very helpful to have the option to create a JSON file from the fields in a form to be used in a Doc Gen template. This would save us much time and frustration vs. manually creating the JSON.

AI Agent Suggested Prompts Need Additional Detail Capability
The ability to define the suggested prompts is very helpful. However, as we build very targeted agents we find the prompts, not custom instructions, need to be more detailed, which makes them long. It would be very helpful to customize the suggested prompt button with a short descriptions but have the actual prompt input in a separate text box and hidden from end-users. The hidden, long, prompt would run when the visible prompt is selected.
Something like this would be a big win for us. Please let me know if this is not clear.

Request to automate shared link generation upon file upload
A customer regularly uploads files into multiple folders (with different locations and hierarchy levels) and then has to generate a shared link for each file. Currently, they need to create each link manually, which is quite time-consuming.
It would be very helpful if features such as Relay could automate this process by automatically generating shared links for uploaded files and sending notifications with created links

Support streaming uploads or appendable upload sessions (unknown final size)
I have a use case where data is generated continuously (sensor readings). I want to build a file in Box by streaming bytes over time and then finalizing the file when the session ends.
Currently, Box’s chunked upload API requires specifying a file_size up front and mandates a fixed total in each Content-Range header. This prevents uploading content when the final size is not known at the start of the session.
Request:
Add support for a streaming or appendable upload workflow, where:- A client can create an upload session without knowing the final file size
- Chunks can be uploaded incrementally…

Add Section Divider Lines and Blank Fields for Cleaner Forms
I would recommend adding divider lines to allow cleaner grouping or sectioning of fields in a form. It would also be helpful to have "blank" field for better organizing when adding fields in two columns but the number of fields for a particular topic is an odd number. Having a blank filler field would allow starting the next topic on the next row rather than beside a field that isn't related. This would make the form look cleaner and be easier for end-users to follow.
2 votesWe've released the static text field that should resolve the blank field request and we've decided to prioritize multi page forms which could serve as a workaround for Divider lines.

Box Hubs Analytics
Would be great to see metrics on how adopted our Hubs are. How many visits, which box users are visiting, how long each visit is, etc. Is this on the roadmap?

Couldn't see full group name
When collaborating, if the group name is long,
the part that doesn't fit in the UI gets truncated.
Is it possible to improve the UI so that the entire group name is displayed?
This happens both when collaborating and when viewing the collaboration list.ーーーーーーーーーーー

Display by name, Alphabetical as a Default. Necessary for our business!
It is 100% Necessary for our file Storage and Sharing needs for files to show up alphabetically BY DEFAULT. We just transferred over from Dropbox, and this is really annoying and a waste of time to have to set viewing each time we log in, and when we share files to have to explain to customers how to set their display. Display by name alphabetical should not only be an option, but a Default. Please make this available immediately. Our business model and client sharing workflow success depends on this. Thank you for implementing right away

Collaborator Permission Levels: Editable, No Downloadable
From a security standpoint, I would like the ability to edit in the desktop app but not download.
Now, if you can edit it, you can also download it.
セキュリティの観点から、 「デスクトップアプリでの編集は可能だが、ファイルのダウンロードは不可」という権限の提供をご検討いただきたく。
現状、 編集が可能な場合は ダウンロードが可能な権限のみとなる認識です。ご検討いただけますと幸いです。

Editing Box Hubs: Adding a description to a file or folder
I'd like to be able to add a short description to each file and folder I add to the Hub.
For example, a description is added just below the file or folder icon, or a speech bubble appears when you hover the cursor over the file or folder icon.22 votesThis feature is under consideration and we plan to start working on it soon

Share multiple files at once
Currently, you can only share one folder/file at a time. Not a smooth process.

We would like to see Box Hubs have a separate shared link permission setting
Currently, Hub shared links can be allowed from “Enterprise Setting” > “Content & Sharing”, but with the current settings, if Hub shared links are disabled, general folder and file shared links will also be restricted, which is very inconvenient.
Therefore, please consider making the shared link setting of the Hub independent, and allow shared links to be allowed for each individual Hub.【日本語】
現在Hubの共有リンクは、「管理コンソール」＞「コンテンツと共有」から許可できますが、現在の設定値ではHubの共有リンクを禁止すると、通常のフォルダとファイルの共有リンクにも制限がかかってしまい非常に不便です。
そのためHubの共有リンク設定を独立させ、Hub個別で共有リンクの許可を行えるよう検討をお願いします。11 votesWe have now released a feature allows users to block Hubs from being shared publicly via “anyone with the link”:
- Admins can set a global default in Hubs Global Presets to prevent open/public shared links for all new Hubs.
- Co‑owners can also restrict public shared links at the individual Hub level, as long as the admin hasn’t locked that setting.
But we haven't released a separate settings for Hubs links in general so I move this request back to "Under consideration". This is something we want to make in the future but not on our roadmap yet.
