"Recents" feature - Feedback
There is a box notification above "Updates" page that states the following:
"Box has decided to end of life (EOL) the Updates feature on August 31, 2022. As an alternative to Updates, please use Recents to access content you have recently interacted with."As "Recents" feature does not offer any information about other users' interaction in shared files and folders (comments, uploads, views, etc) and, additionally, the notification system does not work for most of these instances (comments without tagging, uploading, etc) or does not work well enough (many times there is no notification or it is well delayed), this…

Auto-add 'cc' email addresses
Automation -- cc-ing an email address so the signed doc will go to the group email or the cc'd email addresses.
It can be done manually at the moment. However, it would be good to set up in the back end, so the signed document will not go only to me, but it will go to the "cc'd" email address as well.

Changed conditions for sending invitation deadline notification emails for external users
Currently, invitation deadline notification emails are sent to external users under the following conditions
- co-owner of the folder
- the user has been personally invited to the folder
- direct collaborators of the folder.
Please change the specification so that notification emails can be received even if the user is invited as a group rather than as an individual under condition 2.

Box Wiki Feature
I want to be able to create a universal wiki that I can embed Sonar (for Salesforce) data dictionary views into, embed LucidChart and LucidSpark documents, and create general dictionaries, protocols, procedures and knowledge for the organization, department, and teams. I would like to be able to control access levels or wiki articles and article groups.

Outlook Integration - Box Embed Widget/ Folder Tree View
It would be useful to offer users of Outlook a view into all of their Box files via a folder tree or embed widget. They could easily drag and drop emails or attachments into the relevant folders to be stored as well as viewing their content/ reading archived emails. Supporting our philosophy of integration and being able to surface content through popular applications. Requested by customer Eric Wright Group in EMEA.

Email Notification for specific documents or tags
In the current version of the Box product, there is no feature available to notify a user or a user group for that matter, of any uploads of specific file types or specific tags on files.
We would like for our users to be able to be notified of uploads of specific files in a given folder instead of being inundated with notification emails for every upload done in a folder.

Collaborator Report for live snapshot of all current collaborators
The current Collaborations report shows all collaborations that have gone out (pending, accepted, past invites etc.) instead of just showing a live snapshot of all collaborations. Customers would like a way to pull a list of all users currently in their tenant, both managed and external, and the items they have access to. Essentially taking the information from "Users and Groups" and being able to export this for both managed and external users.

Generate csv for the users with permission
let's say you have a subfolder with multiple users with the same permission, and want to create another subfolder for the similar purpose for the same users. Wouldn't it be great if you can generate a user list as csv or any other format, so you can easily copy and paste the users to invite? I know an admin can create a group but dont you think a regular user should be able to do the similar thing too?

Administrative Controls around shared links
For Shared Links that are open to "People with the link" and no expiration date across our organization, we'd like to have the ability to:
- Disable these links up across all or selected users
- Restrict settings for the majority of our users so that all of these shared links have an expiration of 60 days or less
- Allow only a select group of users the ability to share links with way without expiration dates

annotate
When adding an annotation to a file, it would be nice to make it a once stop annotate and enable the person that i am @ mentioning to annotate the file and not require the owner to first extend the file through permissions, then go annotate. Annotation should be one process for sharing and extending annotation.

Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users.
Allow classifications to only be visible and usable to some users. We use classifications and access policies for specific domain whitelisting. We currently do not allow external collaboration with personal webmail domains for obvious reasons. But some departments like recruiting would need to share content with personal webmail domains. We would like to create a classification/access policy combo that permits this but is ONLY visible to specified users/groups. Thinking of a option like how you can whitelist relay and other features for certain users. Have that same option with classifications. That way the whole org can't use that…

Ability of business to enable/disable password protection of documents/folders function
The functionality allowing users to password protect documents and folders, should be manageable at the top level, as this function may cause problems with managing content if over used by users.
A simple enable/disable toggle for each group of users (Previewer, Editor etc) - so that users may/may not have the ability to password protect documents/folders depending on their permissions in particular locations
Admin Console - reporting locations and details of password protected documents and folders

Push information on AD information in Box Drive for first time login (e.g. tenant name)
To allow for configuration that allows Box Drive to understand that the first authentication should be against the client's SSO provider, rather than prompting the user to enter their email address. Some options that were mentioned were to allow Box Drive to read a value containing the user's email address, or to configure Box Drive to launch a customer specific authentication page.

Folder Settings
It would be great if we could go into the folder settings and have a setting for disable move, copy or delete. We would like this on the group folder level only it would not affect the sub folders. So somebody couldn't come in and drag a huge folder that never needs to be copied or deleted, it would prevent that. It would require the folder to be able to do it if the action ever needed to be done

Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups
Custom Columns (with sort) for Users and Groups
The current Admin console defaults to the below columns with no way to customize for better productivity:
Name
Email
User ID
Role
Status
Storage UsedThis request would allow the Main admin account to customize which columns are displayed while looking at your Users and Groups page. These custom column choices can be chosen from the custom Tags (which are already a feature). Allowing important information to be seen at a glance rather than having to go into each user to get additional pertinent information.
Some examples of custom columns…1 vote -

Enhanced Granular Access Controls for External Collaborators
Current Limitation:
- Existing shared link and external collaborator settings apply a uniform 30-day restriction across all external users
- No ability to create differentiated access rules for trusted partners or affiliated organizationsProposed Feature:
Implement a multi-tier external collaboration access control system that allows:
1. Configurable access duration and permissions based on organizational relationship
2. Ability to create exception groups with extended or permanent access
3. Granular control to distinguish between:
- Completely external users (standard 30-day restriction)
- Trusted partners/affiliated organizations (customizable access duration)
- Specific trusted domains with distinct access rulesUse Case Example:
An organization…4 votes -
Report on who has Box Sync enabled from User Permissions
Admins can enable Box Sync per individual user under the Permissions in the Users&Groups tab in the Admin Console. I would like a report that can pull which users has Box Sync enabled.
