  1. Box Report file management improvement

    Currently every generated report goes into Box Reports folder, making it rather difficult to neatly manage large number of report files.
    If it could be set to automatically sort report files into certain designated subfolders, etc., it would be convenient.
    I would also like the auto-generated report file names be customisable.

  2. Do not create folder in "All Files" when a user already has access to a folder in higher hierarchy

    Everytime a Box folder is added to a Microsoft Teams team using the box plugin, or a user is invited to a box folder, the according folder appears in All files. We have a large number of teams and a lot of projects, so "All files" gets messed up quite quick. Box and the box plugin should check if a user already has access to a folder in the higher hierarchy. In this case the folder should not appear separately in "All Files".

  3. Print a package of signed documents directly from Box

    Would like to be able to print a package of documents that have completed the signature cycle versus printing each completed document from the package

  4. In the "Folders and Files" report, I want to get the number of contents for each folder.

    When copying or moving content, the process tends to become unstable or more prone to errors as the number of contents in the target folder increases. Therefore, as a countermeasure, there are cases where content is divided into smaller parts and copied/moved multiple times. However, currently, the number of contents per folder, which serves as a basis for this judgment, cannot be obtained from the report.
    It would be very helpful if the "Folders and Files" report could also retrieve the number of contents in each folder.
    This allows you to identify folders with a large number of items…

  5. Show amount of time left to complete upload and the number of files remaining

    It only shows a progress bar but I would like a % complete and time to complete on the progress bar as well. Also if it could show number of files that are being uploaded and how many are left. That would be very helpful when I am uploading a lot of documents and want to know long it will take to upload.

    We currently have a progress bar in the upload manager that indicates percentage complete. Adding an estimate for time could be helpful for users, but we won’t be able to prioritize this ask due to conflicting priorities – I’d suggest using the percentage complete as a benchmark for now.

  7. View file audit log with "Deleted users" name on files even after users have been removed.

    It is not a feature of Box to allow "file audit logs" to persist on files showing a deleted users name as the person who made the changes and currently when you remove a user all the collaborators (non-admins) can see is "user made change" instead of the person's name. Yes, you can pull a file management report, but that is for admins and does not provide the teammates of the file any insight as to who was the person that made this change, nor does it help admins determine it easily either. I would like for the product to…

  9. Prevent file duplication when using template and file replacement

    Box Sign allows the creation of templates that replace the underlying document within a signature request / template while keeping the existing field placeholders in place.
    However, using a different document than the pre-set document will result in duplicate files identical to the original document in the destination folder of the Sign document.
    This means that one unnecessary file is generated each time the template is used once.
    If a template is used 100 times, there can be as many as 100 unnecessary files!
    Of course, this will not occur if no files are replaced. However, it is common…

  11. Add "Expand" Option to See All Files within a Folder as Thumbnails

    In Box Hubs, you can add a folder but only the folder shows as the thumbnail, not all the files within that folder.

    It would be great to have an "Expand" option to allow you to see all of the files within a folder as thumbnails under the folder as well.

  12. Box Drive to notify users before logging out that files or folders not sycn up will be lost.

    It will be helpful if users will be notified before logging out of Box Drive that all files or folders not sync up to Box will be lost . In this way, users will be able to check again on the problem items and save it on other location before proceeding on logging out. This will prevent loss of files.

  13. I want you to be able to print for each headline of BoxNotes.

    I want you to be able to print for each headline of BoxNotes.

    If one note has the following three items as headings,
    ◉Future schedule
    ◉Issue management
    ◉Questions for business partners

    I would like to share all three items within the company, so I will write them in a note.
    I would like to print out the third question, ``Questions for business partners,'' as it will be used during meetings with business partners.

  15. Allow editors to overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget

    Currently editors cannot overwrite files with the same name when uploading by email or widget. It makes sense for editors to be able to change this option.

    Thank you for this suggestion! This is a low priority because it’s a very narrow use case. Changing this functionality does not impact a large enough user base.

  16. Create collections based on metadata.

    Add the ability for users to be able to create collections based on metadata. This should speed up the process of adding files to collections and staying organized. It would be additionally helpful to be able to use multiple tags within a collect. For instance, If I wanted to add all contracts that are from 2012 then I might use two tags: "Contracts" and "2012".

  17. Support Embedded Audio/Video when Previewing PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx) Files

    Presentations sometimes have embedded audio/video, and when viewing the file in Box Preview, these embedded media components do not render/play.

    This request is to allow this embedding to be rendered and exposed in Box Preview.
