Allow multiple System Email Signatures
Use case of legal requirements/terms for sharing different types of data externally to be able to use multiple System Email Signatures. example: Assign a SES to a 'Footage' root folder where security footage is shared from versus a SES for 'Plans' which have much different requirements to accept.

My Collections on Box Drive
Just wondering you may develop 'My Collections' function on Box Drive.
164 votesThanks for the suggestion! We are looking at how to improve content sprawl on Drive. We will be considering Collections as a possible path (among other options), but don’t have a change planned in the near-term.

Specific Text Box Area for Notifications
Problem: Whenever a notification popup shows up (file is done uploading, file has moved, etc) it blocks access to a lot of functionality in the upper part of the screen - even something that is to the left or right of the notification but is not covered up.
Rather than having a popup notification to tell you that an event has finished (such as a file or folder being moved), instead create a static notification area to report to.

We would like Box to have a secure calendar available for office use.
We would love if Box had their own calendar available for office use. I work for a mobile anesthesiologist. We use Box to store patient info/files. Right now we use Google calendar for scheduling purposes, but can't put any patient information on it, as it's not secure. It would be great if Box had a secure calendar that we can use for scheduling. Mostly we would like if we can copy a patient's file to the day they are scheduled, so all of the info the doctor needs for the day is all in one place.

Ability to save search filter conditions
I would appreciate if the previous settings for contents filters could be saved so that I can call and use it when searching items with similar criteria.
Frequently using the same condition to search files, so I think it could improve the work efficiency to use saved filter settings.21 votes -
Additional suggestions for creating reports by specifying keys when creating Box reports
I want to accurately manage the content owned by the tenant's managed users. Currently, I am creating a report of "folders and files" of Box to retrieve data, and the output report is divided into 1 million object units. (My tenant is currently making about 70.).
Since these reports are not sorted and the contents owned by each user are output to a file separately, they cannot be used even if they can be output at the same time. Our company automates report merging and folder sorting, which can take several hours.
As an improvement request, it is requested to improve the current item "owner name, owner login, path, path ID, item name, item ID, item type, size, creation, last modified date, upload" so that it can be sorted by the specified field and output. The most desirable condition now is to sort and output "paths" as keys.
By adding this function, the user can visualize how much data exists in the current BOX and how it is used. By visualizing all file information, we believe that we can reduce the risk of data leakage by allocating the man-hours required for operation to each company in the group, deleting data that is not always needed, and implementing archiving. Please Consider adding features to Box reports.

Ability to retrieve the number of files for each folder through API
The Box API allows users to get a list of the files contained in a folder, but it does not provide a direct way to get the number of files per folder, so we would like to provide a way to get the number of files.

Generate Shared Links as a Relay Outcome
Would like the ability to automate generating shared links on files within Box Relay as an outcome. One use case for this would be to create a process for generating external shared links. Many security-conscience customers don't want everyone to have the ability to shared content externally without some sort of approval or oversight. If we added generating and sharing shared links as an outcome in Relay we could build approval flows that would allow users to get approval to share a file externally even if they don't have the access do so.

Make Workflows Shareable Among Users (Box Relay and Box Relay Lite)
In Box Relay, we can check the progress of workflows in the [Tracking] function.
Currently, only the owner of the workflow, and Admins who are granted to access to workflows can see this [Tracking].However, the progress of workflows within the enterprise should be visible to other users as well.
(e.g. Users who have tasks assigned in the workflow, or Co-Owners of the folder where the workflow is triggered.)It would be useful if the owners could share their workflows to other users.

Share link disclosure range for images and file previews inserted in Boxnotes
It is possible to insert images and share links in Boxnotes and set up file previews, but there are users who can access Boxnotes but cannot see the images or previews because they do not have access to them.
However, users who insert links or images often don't realize that they are restricted because they can see the images or previews.When inserting images or previews into Boxnotes, I would like to see a warning that says "Other users may not be able to see this."
Or a message saying "Would you like to adjust the publishing range of the shared link?"so that users can immediately set the disclosure range.Another idea would be to automatically change the access rights of the shared link inserted in Boxnotes to the same as Boxnotes.

Allow Box Sign widget on web page
Allow a Box Sign form based on a template to be posted on a web page via a widget where it can be signed by anyone that can access the web page and/or downloaded to be signed off-line and returned using a manual separate process.
For example, I may have a generic form that can be completed by anyone interested in requesting a service or receiving information but the form requires a name and signature acknowledging terms and conditions before the request will be put into queue to be processed.

Improve Excel edit management
The synch for Excel does not seem to work very consistently or effectively. Simple edits on a table caused the file to split into 4 separate versions.

Email notifications based on saved search
Provide the ability for a user to save an arbitrary search query (including the use of Metadata templates if applicable) and be notified of new content that arrives in a Box folder when it matches that saved search.
This would immensely help our Box users be notified in real-time as we upload content that they are interested in. Otherwise, they have to periodically search the entire folder at some period of the day to find this new content of interest. Using the current notification capability that triggers on all uploads would be too much "noise" to the user; they need a tailored notification capability based on their custom searches.

Add the optional message text on Shared Link Email to the event in the API
When a user clicks the email button the Share Link screen they have the ability to enter an optional message to the person they are sending the link too. This optional message is not captured anywhere in the Box system or event stream. The only way to capture a record of this optional message is with the Compliance Email Archive. Customer would like for this optional message be captured in the event stream so 3rd party compliance software can capture that information. This is an issue in regulated industries like Wealth Management in Financial Services that require logging ALL potential messages that may go to a customer.

Box Sign - Ability to send templates from All Files
The "Sign - Templates" section in Box used to send templates has a lack of folders and filtering which leads to no ability for us to organize or filter our templates. However the "All Files - (Saved templates folder)" already has the ability to create folders, organize templates and see templates (the blue icon). We would love to be able to send templates with the fields in the document (like in the sign - templates section) from the "All files" folder.

Update File Request Date range
File Request Date selector should show a wider range of years when selecting from the dropdown.
Currently it shows from 10 years in the past to 10 years in the future. This makes entering date of birth very difficult.

Ability to view the appropriate number of files on the Mobile app
I use Box to deliver Photo Proofs to clients. It is crazy that there hasn't been a proper update would allow me to see their 'favorites'. Instead I have to rely on "Comments", which for clients on the go and using the Mobile App, is usually a hasel. I'm also trying to figure out why the script for correcting the Usage Space has not been rolled out across the board. I'm still waiting for the script to run on my account, because I'm definitely not using 40 gigs of my 50 gigs right now.
