1. Support streaming uploads or appendable upload sessions (unknown final size)

   I have a use case where data is generated continuously (sensor readings). I want to build a file in Box by streaming bytes over time and then finalizing the file when the session ends.

   Currently, Box’s chunked upload API requires specifying a file_size up front and mandates a fixed total in each Content-Range header. This prevents uploading content when the final size is not known at the start of the session.

   Request:
   Add support for a streaming or appendable upload workflow, where:

   1. A client can create an upload session without knowing the final file size
   2. Chunks can be uploaded incrementally as data is produced
   3. The file size is determined at commit time, not at session creation

   This would support scenarios such as live sensor feeds or any workflow where file contents are produced continuously.

   Is there an existing workaround or planned support for this capability?

2. Improvement of search within the Hub

   We would like to search for information within texts in the Hub, not only from files and folders in the Hub.
   Currently, to enable information search within the Hub, we compile all information in Box Notes and add it to the Hub. However, this results in longer access times for users. We would like to improve the issue where supplementary texts written within pages are not searchable.

3. Add Section Divider Lines and Blank Fields for Cleaner Forms

   I would recommend adding divider lines to allow cleaner grouping or sectioning of fields in a form. It would also be helpful to have "blank" field for better organizing when adding fields in two columns but the number of fields for a particular topic is an odd number. Having a blank filler field would allow starting the next topic on the next row rather than beside a field that isn't related. This would make the form look cleaner and be easier for end-users to follow.

   not planned  ·  AdminAnonymous (Admin, Box) responded

   We've released the static text field that should resolve the blank field request and we've decided to prioritize multi page forms which could serve as a workaround for Divider lines.

4. Couldn't see full group name

   When collaborating, if the group name is long,
   the part that doesn't fit in the UI gets truncated.
   Is it possible to improve the UI so that the entire group name is displayed?
   This happens both when collaborating and when viewing the collaboration list.

   ーーーーーーーーーーー

   コラボレートの際にグループ名が長い場合、
   UI上に入りきらない部分が見切れてしまう問題がある。
   UIの改善でフルグループ名を表示できないか？
   コラボレートする時とコラボレート一覧を表示する際の両方で発生している。

5. Display by name, Alphabetical as a Default. Necessary for our business!

   It is 100% Necessary for our file Storage and Sharing needs for files to show up alphabetically BY DEFAULT. We just transferred over from Dropbox, and this is really annoying and a waste of time to have to set viewing each time we log in, and when we share files to have to explain to customers how to set their display. Display by name alphabetical should not only be an option, but a Default. Please make this available immediately. Our business model and client sharing workflow success depends on this. Thank you for implementing right away

6. Collaborator Permission Levels: Editable, No Downloadable

   From a security standpoint, I would like the ability to edit in the desktop app but not download.
   Now, if you can edit it, you can also download it.

   ---

   セキュリティの観点から、 「デスクトップアプリでの編集は可能だが、ファイルのダウンロードは不可」という権限の提供をご検討いただきたく。
   現状、 編集が可能な場合は ダウンロードが可能な権限のみとなる認識です。

   ご検討いただけますと幸いです。

8. We would like to see Box Hubs have a separate shared link permission setting

   Currently, Hub shared links can be allowed from “Enterprise Setting” > “Content & Sharing”, but with the current settings, if Hub shared links are disabled, general folder and file shared links will also be restricted, which is very inconvenient.
   Therefore, please consider making the shared link setting of the Hub independent, and allow shared links to be allowed for each individual Hub.

   【日本語】
   現在Hubの共有リンクは、「管理コンソール」＞「コンテンツと共有」から許可できますが、現在の設定値ではHubの共有リンクを禁止すると、通常のフォルダとファイルの共有リンクにも制限がかかってしまい非常に不便です。
   そのためHubの共有リンク設定を独立させ、Hub個別で共有リンクの許可を行えるよう検討をお願いします。

   under consideration  ·  AdminAnonymous (Admin, Box) responded

   We have now released a feature allows users to block Hubs from being shared publicly via “anyone with the link”:

   • Admins can set a global default in Hubs Global Presets to prevent open/public shared links for all new Hubs.
   • Co‑owners can also restrict public shared links at the individual Hub level, as long as the admin hasn’t locked that setting.

   But we haven't released a separate settings for Hubs links in general so I move this request back to "Under consideration". This is something we want to make in the future but not on our roadmap yet.

   
   

9. Expand number of folders displayed in folder hierarchy

   Our team works in incredibly deep folder structures and would appreciate the opportunity to view all subfolders in the folder hierarchy to more easily navigate through our folder structure. For example, if someone shares a file with me and it's in the "trailers" folder, it's very difficult for me to tell which project this is associated with unless I navigate many levels up in the folder structure to see a folder with the project name. Ideally, we would be able to see as many folders as can fit in the window space. Our team uses the Box web app and is not interested in leveraging Box Drive.

10. Changing default columns view in File Explorer with Box Drive - Move or hide sync status

    The recent 2.48.250 release has forced a new Sync column in File Explorer. This new column is fixed in position and can't be hidden. I, for one, don't care to have this column take us space in the Explorer as I have a smaller laptop screen.

    When you select the column and hide in Explorer, it shows up at the next refresh back in the same position.

    The integration with File Explorer should follow Windows 11 preferences and be adjustable just as OneDrive is.

11. Ability to exclude invitation restrictions in tenant settings in Hubs

    We would like the ability to add folders with editor privileges in Hubs, even if only co-owners or higher can be invited in the tenant settings, so that it does not affect the invitation restrictions in the tenant settings.
    Anticipate that many companies will not be able to change the invitation restrictions on the tenant side due to personnel issuances, security risk avoidance, etc.
    Like to see this feature implemented, as it would improve the convenience of Hubs if there is a function to prevent tenant settings from affecting Hubs.

    テナント設定で共同所有者以上のみ招待可能な場合でも、Hubsでは編集者権限を持つフォルダを追加できるように、テナント設定の招待制限には影響しないようにする機能が欲しいです。
    人事発令やセキュリティリスク回避等で、テナント側の招待制限を変更することができない企業は多い事が予想されます。
    Hubsではテナント設定が影響しないようにする機能があれば、Hubsの利便性向上に繋がるかと思われますので本機能の実装を希望します。

12. Allow Box AI summaries to display by default when a file is opened or selected

    It would be helpful if Box AI could automatically show the summary panel by default when a user selects a file or opens it in preview.
    Currently, users must manually trigger the AI to see summaries.
    For workflows involving many files, default visibility of summaries would improve usability and make Box AI insights more accessible and efficient.

13. We would like to have a clear indication of whether a file request link has been issued for a folder.

    Currently, it's not immediately clear whether a folder has a file request issued.

    We would like to have an icon display, similar to a shared link icon, so that it is visually clear when viewing the folder that a file request link has been issued.

    Due to this bug, there have been frequent incidents of not receiving notifications when documents are uploaded by clients.
    This has significantly damaged the reliability of Box at our company, and there are calls for its use to be discontinued.

16. Forced termination of suspicious outbound collaboration

    We request implementation of a method for administrators to forcibly cancel invitations received by users under their management.

    While outbound collaboration in Box is free and convenient, it is also highly dangerous.
    It can be exploited by attackers seeking to misplace files or spread malicious files by sending invitations, or by employees planning to leave who receive invitations from their personal accounts to extract information.

    While inbound collaboration allows logging, outbound collaboration does not even permit this, leaving administrators virtually powerless.

    Currently, administrators can only take the following two actions against these highly dangerous behaviors:
    ① Control “future” outbound collaboration via Box Governance domain whitelisting
    ② Generate a list of outbound collaborations via reports

    Option ① cannot address outbound collaborations that have already occurred.
    Option ② only allows for advisory notifications to the affected users.

    Implementation of a response method for cases where your company's users have already been invited is required.
    At the very least, please enable the output of collaboration IDs in the outbound collaboration report. With this alone, you can use the API to revoke access.

17. Easily check past annotations in Box Notes

    Box Notes is extremely easy to use for team brainstorming and reviews, and it has become an essential tool for our day‑to‑day collaboration.

    Currently, when we add a comment using the annotation feature in Box Notes, the comment disappears in the next version if the referenced text is deleted. While it is possible to revert the Note to the version in which the annotation was made via the version history, this is not very intuitive.

    We would like comments (annotations) to remain viewable as a history, even after the referenced text has been deleted, similar to how comments work in PowerPoint (.pptx) files.

20. Copy a folder with its items into another folder using Box Relay

    Copy a folder with its items into another folder using Box Relay

    Currently, you can select not only the "file that triggered the flow" but also the "folder that triggered the flow."
    However, this only copies the folder, not the items contained within it.
    To avoid complicating the workflow for a single folder, make sure the folder contents are also copied.

    Box Relayを使用して、アップロードしたフォルダを別のフォルダ内にアイテムと一緒にコピーしたい

    現在は「フローをトリガーしたファイル」だけでなく「フローをトリガーしたフォルダ」が選択可能です。
    ただし、あくまでもフォルダのみのコピーとなり、フォルダ内に格納されているアイテムは一緒にコピーされません。
    1つのフォルダに対してのワークフローの煩雑化を防ぐために、フォルダの中身も一緒にコピーされるようにしてください。
