  2. Notification when someone is editing a file

    Since we don't have an option to check-in/check-out of files, can you add a feature like Dropbox's badge which alerts a user when someone else is editing a file so we prevent any simultaneous version history/editing issues?

    We have launched the capability to coauthor Office, iWork and Google Workspace files from Box Drive. Coauthoring documents will provide indication on the users who are actively editing the document.

    We currently do not have this planned on our roadmap for other file types.

    Please keep the feedback & use cases coming to help us prioritize this in the future!

  4. Better alignment options for multiple Box Sign fields

    We could use better alignment tools for aligning multiple fields in Box Sign. We would like to be able multiple fields and have an option to align them all together to the left, right or center.

    For example, if we have a document requiring 5 signatures, we would like to be able to select all 5 of those signatures fields and have them all aligned to the left so they are exactly one underneath each other.

    Currently, we can drag each field and use the dotted line alignment guides to get close to aligning correctly with the field above it,…

  6. Enable DocuSign Integration to Send Multiple Docs in one Envelope/Email

    We often have to send multiple files to the same user for signature and are looking for a way to bundle them together rather than needing to send each file individually.

  7. Support preview of script files such as Powershell .ps1 and .psm files

    Preview fails on Box Web for Powershell scripts having a ps1 or other related extension.
    Ideally this would allow one to look at the current as well as prior versions of the file in Box Web without having to download each version separately.

  10. Ability to preview contents of the files contained in the zip file

    Box can list all the folders and files contained in the zip file, however it doesn't allow us to preview the contents of each files contained in the zip file.
    We need to download the zip file to preview the contents.

    It would be better to have ability to preview the contents of the each files so that we can complete our work within Box.

  12. Previous versions on Folders as opposed to just files

    We would like to be able to see Previous versions on Folder level items as opposed to just individual files. This would help if a folder was overwritten.

  13. Reminder to migrate files PSU Box when a faculty leaves PSU

    I created and uploaded some vmware images to PSU Boxes. And I shared several links to files at PSU Box. When I leaved PSU, I forget to migrate my files to our file hosting platform. Therefore, all my files are deleted and lost.

  14. When are you going to bring back file aliases? Bookmarks are not the same and don't cut it.

    We need to be able to create symlink/aliases for files in multiple locations so that we aren't forced to upload a file multiple times, in several folders.

    We use Box to allow our clients to download files, and we sort those in a way that makes sense for them. We also use Box to upload all of our files in a way that makes sense for our employees to find assets. Without symlinks/aliases this is tedious to do and ridiculous to manage.

  15. Sometimes when working with AutoCAD files, the external references in the CAD files lose their path.

    It would be great if the external references (external files) are kept in the CAD file and not lose their paths. (I do wonder if this is happening because the path is too long).

  16. Add Storage Volume (e.g., in MB) to All Files page columns

    Currently, the All Files page has a column for 'Size,' but this only shows the number of files. We need to know the storage volume of the folder/file. Please add storage volume (e.g., in MB) to the All Files page.

  17. HTML files should also be supported by Box AI

    Currently, HTML files are not supported by Box AI.
    As we move forward with the use of Box AI, we have a department that frequently uses HTML files, and that department requested that we use Box AI to obtain information from HTML files.
    As such, we would like you to improve this so that HTML files are also supported by Box AI.

    <HTMLファイルもBox AIのサポート対象とする>
    現在HTMLファイルはBox AIでサポートされていません。
    Box AIの利活用を進める中で、HTMLファイルを頻繁に利用する部門があり、その部門からHTML ファイルから情報を取得するために Box AI を使いたいとの要望がありました。
    そのため、HTMLファイルもBox AIのサポート対象とするよう改善してほしいです。

  18. Files that failed to upload are displayed at the top.

    On the file list screen that opens from the bottom when uploading, I want files that failed to be uploaded to be displayed at the top.
    When uploading tens or hundreds of files, it is not possible to immediately determine which files actually failed.
    You could find it by scrolling down, but the time and effort involved seems impractical.
    Like this feature to be implemented to improve convenience.

    アップロード時の下部から開くファイル一覧画面で、アップロードに失敗したファイルは一番上に表示してほしいです。
    数十~数百のファイルをアップロードする際に、実際にどのファイルが失敗したのか即時に判断ができないです。
    下にスクロールすることで探すことはできますが、時間と労力が掛かり非現実的だと感じます。
    利便性向上のために本機能の実装を希望します。

  19. User Details Report: Add "number of files owned"

    In the user details report, there is an item for storage used, but
