  1. Trash

    Can we have the ability to preview files in the trash can like we can in the web browser? Having all of the trashed files listed by name but with no way to preview makes it harder for me to identify the content I may want to permanently delete or restore. Also, can we please have the ability to know the folder path the deleted file will be restored to before restoring the file? I have to hunt down files after I restore them as there is no easy way for me to know where they are going to be…

  3. Allow admins to be able to exclude specific folders from scanning policies

    Be able to safelist individual folders and their content, in case the latter are part of normal operational activities of specific teams, and to reduce false positives/noise to SecOps teams.

  5. box tools excel display defaults

    Every time I open a new tab in an excel spreadsheet I am looking at nothing. It shows me the cells below and right of anything useful. So every time I open a tab I have to scroll up and left to find the spreadsheet I need to work with. This should be the simplest of things and shouldn't be a problem. Please help...

  6. BOX Relayにおいてファイルが入っていたフォルダを動的に指定したい

    In BOX Relay, it is possible to dynamically specify the file triggered by WorkFlow, but it is not possible to dynamically specify the folder that contained the file.
    If the folder containing the file that started the Work Flow can be moved, it is possible to move document sets other than the target fill in Work Flow.

  7. Ability to create folders on the fly when moving/copying content

    Users would like to be able to create a folder when moving/copying content, as opposed to only being able to move/copy content to pre-existing folders. It would save time and energy to be able to do that on the fly as opposed to creating the folder ahead of time.

  8. If we make changes to the metadata template, the changes should be reflected in the metadata of the created file request link.

    If we make changes to the metadata template, the changes should be reflected in the metadata of the created file request link.

    When changing the item name of a metadata template or the display order of text item choices,The changes are not reflected in the configured file request screen.
    When the number of file request settings is large, the metadata templates need to be changed manually one by one when there is a change in the metadata template. This is a burden on workers and leads to a decrease in operational efficiency.

    メタデータテンプレートに変更を加えた際に作成済みのファイルリクエストリンク内のメタデータにも変更を反映して欲しい

    メタデータテンプレートの項目名変更や、テキスト項目の選択肢の表示順を変更した際、設定済のファイルリクエストの画面に変更内容が反映されません。
    ファイルリクエストの設定件数が多い場合、メタデータテンプレートに変更があった際に1つずつ手動で変更が必要なため作業者の負担となり業務効率の低下に繋がります。

  9. Box CLI Email Notifications and Folder Settings

    We would like to enable upload notifications for select folders, on particular users or groups.

    Currently users need to go into each folder's settings to then check the box for upload notifications, or they can select upload notifications in their user settings.

    The first option is very time consuming, we have about 140 folders that we would like to target and it is hard to force employee's to complete this.
    The 2nd option removes the importance of notifications if users are being notified for everything.

    It would be great to have a bulk option to enable notifications or manage other…

  10. Empty (not delete) folder by Box Relay folder action

    It would be great to have a relay folder action which empties a folder. Currently folder and files can only be deleted.
    We use Box folders for mail-2-box actions, and very ofter users simply forget to remove a file from the folder. I want to achive a time-controlled trigger which empties the respective folders ever night. Many thanks.

  11. Ability to edit captured data in BoxNote.

    In the captured data pasted to Note
    You can create a box for inserting text or highlighting it, or you can apply a mosaic to an arbitrary area.
    I would like to be able to edit pasted images immediately.
    Although it is possible to edit images by right-clicking with the current specifications (Windows 10),
    You can only edit handwritten notes (pen, marker), arrows, and degrees.
    After that, you can save the image by either copying it to the clipboard or saving it with a name.
    I am not able to edit images smoothly and I feel it is bothersome.

  12. Use Issuer Label prefix in TOTP URI for MFA to conform to recommendations

    When setting up MFA using authenticator app, the QR code you generate does not provide Issuer Label Prefix in the label.

    This is not according to TOTP recommendations:
    https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format#issuer

    Your format is:
    otpauth://totp/<EMAIL-ADRESS>?secret=<SECRET>&issuer=Squarespace&digits=6&period=30

    This leads Microsoft Authenticator to use the name <email-domain>, for example "gmail" or "outlook", for the account, as per https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format#label

    If another website implements the same bad QR code format as you, on iOS one of the two will be overwritten, and you will loose access to that site.

    Squarespace uses the same bad formatting, so chances of catastrophe is big. (I will also be reaching out…

  13. When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder. At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times, but is it

    When uploading to Box, it is common to upload all files in a folder.

    At this time, the same file may be uploaded multiple times,

    but is it possible to set it so that only new files are uploaded based on the timestamp?

    Because I want to stop unnecessary version upgrades.

    In the case of FTP, there is a "mirroring upload" function,

    which uploads only new files based on the timestamp.

  15. [Support preview of ".xct" files] Support preview of ".xct" files

    We use DocuWorks for our business.
    At this time, the Box preview supports ".xdw" and ".xbd", but unfortunately ".xct" is not yet supported.

    A similar request was submitted on the following BoxPulse, which was "Delivered" as of 09/2022, but only the ".xct" is still not in preview.
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/39875047-preview-files-about-xdw-xbd-and-xct-in-box-for-io

    Therefore, we need to register Fujifilm's source files with AppleStore in order to use DocuWorks from Box for EMM.
    It is very inconvenient that ".xct" cannot be previewed when using DocuWorks, so please add it to the preview support list.


    弊社では業務にDocuWorksを利用しています。
    現時点では、Boxのプレビューでは「.xdw」と「.xbd」に対応していますが、残念ながら「.xct」には未対応です。

    以下のBoxPulseで類似の要望が投稿されており、
    2022年09月の時点で「配信済み」になっていますが、現在も「.xct」のみプレビュー対象になっていません。
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/39875047-preview-files-about-xdw-xbd-and-xct-in-box-for-io

    そのため、弊社ではBox for EMMからDocuWorksを利用するにあたって、AppleStoreに富士フィルムのソースファイルを登録する必要が生じています。
    DocuWorksを利用するにあたり、「.xct」がプレビューできないのは大変不便なのでプレビューのサポート対象に加えてください。

  17. Show file paths on "Error updating *** items..."

    If BoxDrive has some errors, it shows error on "Error updating *** items..." by clicking the gear icon.
    Then the error window says, "The original file was deleted on Box" on my environment.
    But it doesn't show the paths, but also filenames.
    So it would be very helpful if you could improve it to show the filenames and its path.

    Environment:
    macOS 13.6.7 (22G720)
    Box Drive 2.39.179

  18. Make MPIP and Shield Classification Labels Bidirectional

    This make require partnership with Microsoft, but it would be ideal if the MPIP integration was bidirectional. For example, if a file in Box doesn't have an MPIP label, but a Shield classification label is applied, the document would have an MPIP label applied based on the mapping table

  19. Request to improve the behavior of files with "Download and Print Restrictions" set on Box Drive

    In Shield > Access Policy, we are creating a classification label for the policy that has "Restrict downloading and printing" set as the security control.
    Depending on when you set this label classification, Box Drive may not have the limitations you expect.
    I would like to see an improvement so that files with "Download and Print Restrictions" set cannot be opened or copied in Box Drive from the moment the settings are set.

    The specific steps and events are as follows.
    1. Open the file before setting the classification label in Box Drive.
    2. Edit, save and close the file.…

  20. Request for the ability to zoom in and out and preview clearly after displaying TIF.

    When viewing a TIF file in a browser, it is clear, but in a mobile app, the TIF file is not clear
    When viewing a TIF file in a mobile app, it is difficult to view it via the mobile app because there is no zoom in/out function, so it is pinch-enlarged and not clear even when zoomed in, so it must be downloaded to a local library for viewing.
