The ability to copy collaboration information from one existing folder to another
There are cases in which we wants to invite collaborators who are invited to one folder to another folder with the same permissions.
If we have users with the same permissions, we can save time by inviting multiple users at once or creating a group.
However, setting different permissions for each user takes man-hours and is prone to error if it is checked only checked visually.It would be useful to be able to the ability to set the collaborator permissions of an already created folder to another folder as is.

<フォルダのコラボレーション情報を別のフォルダにコピーできる機能>
あるフォルダのコラボレータを、別のフォルダにも同じ権限で招待する場合があります。同じ権限のユーザーであれば複数まとめて招待したり、グループを作成することで手間を省くことはできますが、
ユーザー毎に異なる権限を設定する場合、工数もかかり、目視のみの確認だとミスが発生しやすいです。既に設定済のフォルダのコラボレーションしている情報を、そのまま別のフォルダに設定できる機能があると便利です。

On Admin Console, provide ability to use wild card search for external users.
On the Admin Console > Users & Groups > External Users, allow users to use a wild card for searches. Currently, the search only performs a "starts with" search on the email address and name. However, this is very limiting and restrictive, especially when we have thousands of external users, and the name field is variable (first last; last first; nicknames, etc.) The wild card feature or "contains" would give the user an option to search within the email address to filter users by email domain.

Additional Sorting Options for Managed Users in Users & Groups
I would like to request the addition of more sorting options for Managed Users in the Users & Groups console.
Currently, sorting is limited to Name, Email, and Storage Used.
It would be extremely helpful to include the following:
Sort by Last Activity
Enables identification of users who have never accessed Box or who are inactive.
Helps admins determine which accounts can potentially be cleaned up or require follow‑up.Sort by Status
Allows quick visibility into which users are disabled in Box.
Supports faster lifecycle management and removal of stale or unused accounts.
While this information is available through…

Request for improvement of behavior when posting a shared link of a Box folder in a Teams channel or chat
When you post a Box shared link in a Teams channel or chat, you'll see a Grant Access card with the option to grant users additional permissions if the following conditions are true:
condition:If there are channel members or chat members who do not have access permissions to the shared folder or file.
*This includes channel members and chat members who are invited as a group but not directly invited as users.The support article states that when you grant access, the card will update and a content card with file details will be displayed.
However, when you post a…3 votes -
Update removed the ability to view notifications on a single page. You have to scroll through them from the top tool bar. Please add back!
The newest update removed the ability to view notifications (@mentions, etc) on a single page. You have to scroll through them from the top tool bar. This makes these difficult to managed properly. This needs to be added back ASAP!

Ability to hide file previews from Access Stats when a specific user/group of users views a file in Box.
There is a need for a 'covert' style admin functionality which would mask when one of these users views a file in Box.

Filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated in the user detail report.
Content:
Currently, the user detail report cannot filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated,
and it is necessary to check while cross-referencing with the user list on the Users and Groups screen.
Additionally, the unmanaged user list on the Users and Groups screen can take up to 24 hours to reflect changes,
which may cause discrepancies with the information at the time of report output, reducing operational efficiency.
I request the implementation of a feature that can filter unmanaged users who have not been collaborated.(日本語)
タイトル: ユーザー詳細レポートで、コラボレーションされていない管理されていないユーザーをフィルタリングする。
内容:
現在のユーザーの詳細レポートでは、コラボレーションされていない管理対象ユーザーをフィルタできず、
ユーザーとグループ画面のユーザー一覧と照らし合わせながら確認する必要があります。
また、ユーザーとグループ画面の管理対象外ユーザー一覧は反映までに最大24時間かかるため、
レポート出力時の情報と差異が発生する可能性があり、業務効率が低下します。
コラボレーションされていない管理対象外ユーザーをフィルタできる機能実装を希望します。3 votes -
Admin view - Users and Groups
the current filters don't let me choose just managed users, it includes appusers which I do not want to see. I also need to filter by the date added. The old UI design had this and it was very helpful, the new design is missing it.

Large Folder Operations dashboard with status, ETA, rollback, and reporting
Requesting a centralized Large Folder Operations Dashboard in the Box Admin Console or via API to improve visibility and control over major content transfers.
During a large folder ownership change, an unexpected behavior occurred where ownership polling and job sequencing did not reflect the actual state of completion. This led to a move propagating recursively from an empty child folder to an inherited, multi-million-object parent folder.
A built-in dashboard would provide transparency into large operations and prevent this class of issue from occurring silently.
Proposed Capabilities
-Status Tracking — show all active or queued large folder transfers (ownership, move, or…

provide a way to auto-check the 'Only one assignee is required to complete this task' checkbox
This is when you are adding approval tasks to a document. If you forget to check this, it can lead to everyone in a group having to go in and approve the document before it can be completed.

Collapsible folder tree/structure for Box Notes for Desktop
As mentioned in other feedback, right now only having "Recent", "Favorites", and "Inbox" as filters makes organizing and looking through notes difficult.
It would be interesting to either 1) integrate the user's folder tree in the Box Notes view or 2) have subfolders within "My Box Notes" show up as the structure.
May be related to PF-02982.

Ability to view Box folders and files more clearly
Currently, when we look at a list of folders or files, we feel that they are displayed in a cluttered way.
This makes it difficult to find a particular item.
We manage and respond to items by grouping them by tags.We believe that the following features will make Box even more convenient for us to use in the future
・Assign any colour to the folders in the box
・Assign any colour to the tags in the Box
・The order of the tags in the Box can be rearranged by dragging.[Boxのフォルダやファイルを更に見やすくする機能]
フォルダやファイルを一覧で見た際に、雑多に表示されており、特定のアイテムを見つけるのが難しい。
現在は、タグによってグループ分けを行うことで対応している。今後以下の機能が増えることでより便利にBoxを利用できると考えています。
・Boxのフォルダに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグに任意の色を付けられるようにして欲しい。
・Boxのタグの順番をドラッグで並び替えられるようにして欲しい。4 votes -
Improve the UX when editing filters for a saved report
When editing the filters on a saved report, it is difficult to review the data in the "Users and Groups" field as it is very squashed.
Can you consider making this section larger so it is easier to view any users or groups included in the report. Or maybe have a button to export the list to a text file for easier viewing and modification.

Add additional_info data to all events to include service_id
Currently, many events do not include the additionalinfo fields, in particular the serviceid field. This makes it difficult for organizations with many applications to track which of these applications are making the calls.
Here are the events missing this information:
- RENAME
- UPLOAD
- ITEM_CREATE
- ITEM_UPLOAD
- ITEM_MOVE
- ITEM_TRASH
- ITEM_RENAME
- COLLABORATION_ACCEPT
- COLLABORATION_EXPIRATION
- COLLABORATION_INVITE
- COLLABORATION_REMOVE
- METADATAINSTANCECREATE
- METADATAINSTANCEUPDATE
- METADATATEMPLATECREATE
- METADATATEMPLATEUPDATE

A list of users who have sent "email to all" in a report.
The "Email All" function on the collaborator list screen on the folder screen allows you to check which user sent what message and when in the "User Activity Report", but it does not allow you to check which user the "Email All" was sent to.
I understand that "Email to all" cannot be sent to users with pending invitations or when there are more than 500 collaborators,
but when there are a large number of collaborators, it is difficult to know how many users are pending, and checking the "Collaboration Report" takes time.
In addition, there may be cases where…3 votes -
Auto-redirect to Box account after logging in once and typing in Box.com in the address bar
One of our users does not like the fact that Box auto re-directs to his Box account after logging in to his browser once, then opening up a new tab and typing in Box.com.
Example:
- Login to Corporate account
- Open new tab/window and type http://www.box.com and hit enter
- Page loads to corporate Box account and does not allow me to go to box.com public website
It could be addressed by an intermediary page that offers both options, or it could be addressed by identifying that the user is logged in, still navigating to the path requested (e.g. Box.com) and then…
1 voteThis is a rare use case where a logged in Box user wants to see the public website.
Given the relatively minor affected population, we will not introduce friction for our product to solve for this use case.

Multi-Factor Authentication for SSO required
We would like to be able to issue Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in addition to SSO required and for specific groups like external collaborators, contractors, and remote employees
5 votesThe option to require 2FA for external collaborators has been delivered earlier this year. This feature, while independent from the SSO configuration should answer to the original ask.
