  1. Enhanced filtering/sorting when selecting folders and files

    When selecting the affected folders and files the search filtering could use some enhancements.

    I'll use the user filter options and search for a keyword but there are so many hits to filter through - it would be great to have some options on sorting the list. At the very least to sort alphabetically.

  4. Ability to identify password protected files(パスワード付きファイルを特定する機能)

    If a file is password protected, Box Shield's deep scan cannot be performed.
    We would like to see a feature added to Box Shield to identify files with passwords.

  6. Preview Movie Files Without The Need To Render

    Video files are taking a long time to render. We would either like there to be a file format that e can create before uploading files that will stream on Box without the need for a render. Or have the render start immediately once the upload of a video file is complete.

  7. Box Drive & Box Shield

    Currently Box Shield classifies copy & pasting within Box Drive as downloading which results in a false alarm notification. It would be great to be able to see the difference between moving files and actually downloading files from a Box report.

  8. We would like to hide the prompt that asks whether to lock the file displayed in BoxDrive.

    We would like to hide the prompt that asks whether to lock the file displayed in BoxDrive.

    Currently, BoxDrive shows a prompt for file locking every time a file is opened.
    This is particularly disruptive when opening multiple files simultaneously.

    We would like administrators to have the ability to turn off this prompt through settings.

    (in Japanese)
    BoxDriveで表示されるファイルをロックするかを確認するプロンプトを非表示にしたい。

    現在BoxDriveではファイルを開くたびにファイルロックのためのプロンプトが表示されます。
    特に複数ファイルを同時に開くときに作業の妨げになります。

    管理者が設定で表示をOFFにできる機能を実装してほしい。

  9. Box for Slack: Enable Admin to set the default value of instant permission on shared box files

    Would like to allow admins to set enterprise-wide default way the Box for Slack app automatically adjust permissions of shared files on Slack. Also it would be better if each users cannot change those default settings on Slack app.

    Box for slack integration allows users to automatically grant channel participants access to Box files shared in Slack.
    (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/10012306628755-Instant-permissions-on-shared-Box-files-in-Slack)

    Currently, each user can set default access (Inviting collaborators or creating a Shared Link) as they like, but admins cannot control the enterprise-wide default setting.
    However, if users set the default setting as invite collaborators and Slack integration…

  11. AI restriction in shield access policy

    Shield Access Policy Settings to include the possibility to restrict the use of AI on content. That would prevent using AI on files containing PII, or other files including sensitive content in particular when using Box AI in Box Hubs.

  12. Automatically Delete Files After Purge Policy Period (Respecting Legal Hold)

    While retention policies provide timed safeguarding, the system does not guarantee automatic deletion of items once the retention period ends particularly when a purge policy is specified. End users must rely on manual deletion or scheduled processes.

    This enhancement would ensure that files automatically expire and are permanently deleted via defined purge policies unless they’re subject to a Legal Hold, which always takes priority.

    Proposed Functionality:
    At retention expiration, system automatically deletes files according to defined purge rules.

    Legal Hold overrides deletion, preventing removal until hold is lifted.

    The system logs all auto-deletions in audit trails, identifying the purge policy…

  14. Box for Office plug-in (Recent Files or Folders)

    Please increase the number of Recent Files / Folders permitted (currently fixed at 3).
    Personally I can be editing many spreadsheets in a single day, and so this quickly becomes almost useless.
    Ideally allow me to configure this with the optimum number, but just fixing at 10 or 20 would help enormously

  15. How can I set an opening date and time for files?

    I need to open files progressively for a class. There is an expiration setting but not an opening setting. It would be ideal to have both an opening and expiration date/time setting.

  16. Add filter function to Event API to limit the result by specifying a path collection

    Event API result is a list of all updated files in an "entire" site.
    For enterprise use-cases, the volume of this returned data is inevitably very large.
    Thus, even if a part of site needs to be monitored, the network bandwidth is consumed unnecessarily and it casues the performance issue.
    Could you add a filter function to Event API so that the API returns only events related to the files in the specified path collection?
     
    This is the API asking to enhance

  17. Move uploaded files (via an Automation) to different folders based on the file type.

    Use case: Users could bulk upload a range of file types (docx, image pdf, audio etc) into a single folder that redirects each file based on the file type to different folders for different skills processing.
    Example: a word doc and an audio file could be uploaded to the same folder the word doc gets auto moved to a folder that triggers a skill to extract concepts however the audio file is moved to a folder that triggers a speech to text skill (the text could then be auto moved to the same folder as the word doc for concept…

  18. Make files preview in mobile without user registration like Dropbox

    Make files preview on mobile Box, without user registration. Currently, customers need to download the box app just to view any file I send as shared link. This is not an issue with Dropbox. With the majority of people using their mobile phones this would be a good idea, do you agree?

  19. Allow Users to 'Remove' all files from their BOX Drive as a right-click command

    It would be nice, instead of logging out of BOX Drive on my personal computer to 'remove' all files on my personal device (so anything that was cached or downloaded). Instead of having to 'log out' of the BOX drive app.
