  1. Editting text files online without using Box Edit

    I want to edit text files(.txt files) online without using Box Edit.
    Because when I edit a text file with Box Edit, I have to download it each time, which takes time.
    I think it would be very convenient if I could easily edit text files on Box, just like Box Notes.

  2. Status drop down in Sign has no way to filter for "Error"

    The Status drop down has no option to filter for a error. It took 17 days before it emailed a contract had an error. I have no way of filtering if there are others with a error.

    Can Error be added to the Status filter?

  3. Box version(s) report

    It would be nice to be able to generate a report that shows a file's number of versions.

    We'd like to change our versioning number at an Enterprise level, but we cannot see how many versions of a file any user has at a time.

    It would be nice to be able to pull a report on 'Versions' of a file so that we can see who has over X# of versions of one file and email them about the upcoming change. Currently, there doesn't seem to be a way to find this information.

  4. Request Signature outcome should have Form Submitter variable

    When creating a workflow like the one in the following article, the Request Signature outcome cannot use the form submitter as a signer

    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/38351786879123-Generating-Documents-with-Box-Doc-Gen-and-Box-Relay

    Some of our workflows start with a form, use Box Doc Gen to generate a document, which then needs to be signed by the original form submitter. While the Request Signature step can access form variables, it notably does not have access to the Form Submitter.

    It would be great if this was exposed as a variable so that the sign request could have the submitter as a signer.

    Our current workaround is to add a…

  5. Display more information in Upload Error message in Box Drive

    It would be helpful to have more information shared in the Upload Error notification that’s displayed for admins when a user tries to upload content to a folder that has run out of storage. It would be helpful for the error message to display information such as account name, email, or login of the user. Currently, if an organization imposes storage quotas for their users, admins will receive this message anytime a user tries to upload content to a full folder. Having more information up front within the error message would save admins time in looking to find who the…

  6. API that can get password change date

    The interval at which users are required to change their passwords can be set in the Administration Console, but each user is required on a different day.
    We would like to inform users of the next password change date in advance.
    You can check the password change date in the user detail report, but it takes time to output it, so if you have an API that can get the password change date, you can create a mechanism to automatically notify it.

  7. Box Drive folders should automatically refresh when you open them.

    When you open a folder in Box Drive, it should automatically refresh that folder. There's no scenario where you're opening a folder and you WANT an older version of it. If you're opening it, you intend to interact with it somehow, and in order to do so effectively you must have the most up to date version of its contents. Manually refreshing is tedious.

  9. Ability review the most recently uploaded documents in temporal order

    Aside from that, my real feedback is that your data room doesn't have a feature to review the most recently uploaded documents in temporal order. This is a crucical feature to M&A lawyers, and a lot of your clients use Box for M&A deals. I would suggest that you look at DataSite and incorporate some of their features, because there are a lot of M&A lawyers who are forced to use your service (becuase you're who the bankers decided to use) and the experience is way worse than DataSite. Not trying to be overly critical but just trying to help…

  10. Request: flexibility of the pop up which notify in advance Drive users when moves of large #s of contents at once

    This release is good news for us because we have a lot of Box Drive users.
    https://support.box.com/hc/ja/articles/35422037930643

    This is additional improvement request,but it is much appreciated for us that Box admin can set #s of contents when the pop-up message is displayed to Drive users. sometimes end-users accidentaly move folders which are many users are collaborated and critical for business. So we want to display the message even if the #s of contents' are smaller than 8000.

  11. Box Shield - enable download details to be exported to csv

    Box Shield reports should have a button to trigger a User Activity report for the activities associated with the period of the Box Shield Alert - ALL actions (not just downloads).

    This will assist in the investigation of downloads, and enable us to identify 'FALSE' shield reports - where downloads are in fact folders being copied or moved in Box Drive

  12. Metadata “number” format supports comma “,”.

    In order to comply with the Electronic Bookkeeping Act, amounts are entered in "number" format in the metadata.In this case, we would like to enter a comma "," as a separator to prevent errors in the number of digits. Currently, the "Number" format only allows numbers to be entered.If we select "Text" as the format, we can enter a comma ",". However, there is a risk of unintentional full-width input being mixed in, so it is preferable to select "Number" as the format and be able to enter a comma ",". (1000 separator)

    電子帳簿保存法の対応のため、メタデータの「数字」形式に金額を入力しています。
    この際に、桁数の誤りを防止する目的で、区切り文字のカンマ「,」を入力したいと考えています。
    現在は、「数字」形式では数字のみしか入力できません。

    形式として「テキスト」を選択すると、カンマ「,」の入力が可能ですが、意図しない全角入力が紛れ込む危険があるため、
    形式としては「数字」を選択したまま、カンマ「,」の入力が可能になることが望ましいです。

  13. Set admin thresholds for mass deletes or mass moves

    We would like the ability for admins to set some limits on mass deletes or moves, possibly 2 levels, one that needs a two stage confirmation by the user when it is between X and Y and then sends an alert to the admins informing them of the action.

    Then a second limit between Y and Z that informs the user that admin needs to approve and sends an approval request to the admins.

    The alerts was something Dropbox did, but the approvals adds a new dimension to improve our ability to avoid unnecessary recovery.

  14. the folder tree display/tree operations

    I would like the folder tree display/tree operations implemented in Content Manager to be implemented on the normal screen as well.
    This will improve usability for people who are accustomed to Windows Explorer.
    It will make it easier to transition from Box Drive to Box Web.

  16. Box AI for Hubs for External Users

    Currently, in order for an external user to use AI for a Hub they are invited into, the external user's EID must also have Enterprise Plus AND have enabled AI for Hubs.

    We would like an option to grant external users AI access if their EID doesn't have Enterprise Plus. Thank you!

  17. Flexible Account Display Name

    I want to change the display name of accounts for internal and external collaboration within my company's tenant.

    When viewing content within my company, displaying "Name-Department" makes it easier to identify individuals in a large organization.

    On the other hand, for external collaboration partners, I don't want to show the department name, but "Name-Company" can be easier to identify.

    It would be great if the display name could be customized according to each environment.

  20. Add Bulk Files to a Hub

    Currently, adding files to a Hub requires each file to be selected individually. Being able to drag a group of files from Box Drive would be really helpful, or some sort of a "Select All" button so that all files within a Box folder could be selected simultaneously.
