File uploads are extremely slow.
File uploads are extremely slow. For example, a group of 3 x 20Mb files might take an entire day to upload on a 5mb.s connection. This has happened in the past 3-4 weeks.
I found the root cause of it. I am in New Zealand and redirected to the Tokyo server, which is very very slow. I verified that this upload path is an issue thus:
Tried to upload a 20Mb file using browser (via Tokyo) - 2 hrs later the file was at 20% upload. Cancelled the upload.
Connected a VPN onto Los Angeles. Uploaded the same file (and…5 votes -

Removed Collaborator Report That Show Affected Folder Path, Folder Owner, & Link To Affected Folder
Recently, my company ran into an integration bug between Okta and Box, which result in a mass deprovisioning of users account. We were able to reprovision user account fairly quick but there as a mass folder permission lost.
If the user permission was granted via a group, all permission was successfully restored. However, if the permission was granted individually, that permission was lost. Ticket was open with Box support to request for assistance with folder permission restore but they could not help.
So the next best thing was try to run "User Activity" report on "Removed Collaborator" on the…

Add @mentions using enter key
It would be nice to not have to put your cursor over the persons name and then hit enter after the name has shown. Rather, the name shows, hit enter, boom, done! No extra key strokes irritating my mouse arm!

Allow Folder Actions on "the folder of the file that triggered the flow"
When trying to build dynamic workflows, you currently can work with and get a handle on either:
- Folders can triggered the flow
- Files that triggered the flow
- Folders/Files created/copied from previous stages
There are workflows, however, where you have a trigger on the file(s) but you want to move that entire folder to progress the flow.
A "the folder of the file that triggered the flow" handle would be helpful in this scenario to allow you start a workflow, either through a file action or a manual start...assign tasks to that file and then be able to get a handle…

Allow Admins to Recover Deleted Users Directly
Occasionally, Admins can delete a user (or large group of users) for one reason or another (license re-allocation, deleting users based off of perceived inactivity, etc.). Sometimes these users need to be recovered quickly to give users access to their Box account once again if this was done by mistake. The ultimate goal would be to enable Admins who have the ability to manage users to recover deleted accounts on their own (whether through somewhere in the admin console and/or via the CLI or API) so that product support doesn't need to do so through a support ticket as a…

Tables - Allow Merging Cells in Box Note Tables
A standard function when working with tables (in Excel and other tools) is a basic 'merge cells' feature that allows multiple cells (whether in a row or column) to be merged into one to function more as a grouping of multiple rows/columns. Box Notes don't currently support merging table cells.
REQUEST: Support merging 2 or more cells in a row/column within a Box Note.

Request for an Invitation Method to Enable Collaboration for All Tenant Users
We would like a way to invite all users in the tenant to collaborate.
Currently, there are over 30,000 users across the tenant, so it is not practical to register all users in a single group and invite them via that group.

Box CLI Email Notifications and Folder Settings
We would like to enable upload notifications for select folders, on particular users or groups.
Currently users need to go into each folder's settings to then check the box for upload notifications, or they can select upload notifications in their user settings.
The first option is very time consuming, we have about 140 folders that we would like to target and it is hard to force employee's to complete this.
The 2nd option removes the importance of notifications if users are being notified for everything.It would be great to have a bulk option to enable notifications or manage…

Improve the de-provisioning process in Box
Improve the de-provisioning process in Box so that old content isn't stored when it's not needed, and if it is needed, the right people are taking over ownership of the content. Workflow should look something like this: -User leaves company and is removed from AD group or marked somehow as "removed" -Collaborators on their shared folders are notified that they should take ownership of the folders, if the content is still needed. For example "you have 30 days to take ownership of X folder." -When they click to take ownership, the folder/file is now owned by them and other collaborators…

Folder of aliases to Box files for sharing
In order to supply a group of files to a collaborator such as an outside contractor, one must copy existing files into a new folder. We need a way to gather the ALIAS /SHORTCUT to multiple files that can be placed in a single shared folder.

Change Unique Identifier to Something other than Email Address
This is the grouping for the common request for Box to use a unique identifier other than email address for managed users.
Key pain point with the fact that Box uses email address as the unique identifier: Email addresses change often in large companies, thus requiring these companies to use custom API scripting to keep emails in Box updated based on changes in AD.
This unique identifier (whether a mapped value from the customer's user store, aka AD, or the Box unique user ID) should also be the identifier used when users authenticate to Box using SSO (via SAML).
20 votesThis feature request isn’t currently planned on the roadmap, but we are considering the notion of user attributes that can be placed on a user and then used for better context while sharing / collaborating and searching in the Admin Console.
Please provide more use cases in the comments to help us understand the problem better.

Because Watermarking is built as an enterprise-wide feature, we don’t currently plan to limit access to it to only certain users as this would be antithetical to how we do enterprise features as a whole in the product.
If we decide to add the ability to limit folder settings to certain levels of users, then I could see us changing watermarking to fit that pattern.

Box Forms – Add internal-only / scoped access controls for Form links (security & compliance)
Customers need the ability to restrict Box Form links to internal, authenticated users (and ideally specific users/groups), instead of only “anyone with the link.” Current behavior conflicts with stricter security postures and makes Forms hard to adopt for internal project and regulated use cases.
Background / Use Case
Customer is using Box Relay + Box Forms as part of internal project workflows:Workflow trigger: Form submission (Relay)
Outcome: e.g., DocGen or other internal automation
They want to present Forms to internal project teams only and treat them as an internal front end to Box workflows.
Today, the Form…

Updated retrieval of invitation logs from external tenants
If you get a log by user name, you can see which tenant you received an invitation from, but if you set the acquisition target to an administrative group, you will not know which tenant you received the invitation from. Even if you designate a group, I want you to know where you received the invitation from.

Support Copilot Integration with Multiple Box Environments under a Single Microsoft Tenant
Many enterprises operate under a structure where a single Microsoft tenant is shared, while Box environments are separated by legal entity.
With the current limitation that Copilot × Box integration is restricted to a 1:1 relationship, it is difficult to achieve both group-wide Copilot adoption and proper information governance.
Enabling secure integration with multiple Box environments while maintaining a single Microsoft tenant would unlock significant value, including group-wide AI utilization, greater flexibility for M&A and organizational restructuring, and the avoidance of unnecessary Box environment consolidation or Microsoft tenant separation.＜日本語＞

Be able to set your personal notifications to also include someone else.
Be able to set your personal notifications to also include someone else.
Many of our users work in teams, so it would be good to allow a user the ability to specify if another BOX user or group should receive the altered notifications that they receive.

Add an exportable report for External Users
a Download Report button in External Users, within the Admin Console - Users and Groups. There is a button for Managed Users. We need one for External Users that includes who added or invited the External User and when.
