1. I want to be able to find files containing specific text that DO NOT have a specified metadata template applied

   I want to be able to find files containing specific text that DO NOT have a specified metadata template applied. This will help with implementing Box Governance Classification, and support compliance/audits going forward.

2. Multiple IDP Support for Login

   While Box Supports Multiple IDP connections to a single tenant, it is not possible without the tenant to provide a landing page for login. This is something that multiple other providers already support, and asking the customer to supply their own login page to access Box from multiple IDPs hurts both Box and the customer.

   This hurts Box because instead of creating managed and secure users, I now need to juggle 3rd party users and treat them as guests rather than full users. ($)

   This hurts customers by not allowing us to administer policies easily for end users as a whole. Larger conglomerate companies do not necessarily always function in the same silo's and if often takes years for them to merge structure if they even merge at all.

3. For files, folders and users name, we need to use U+10000 - U+10FFFF in Unicode characters.

   Today, we can only use BMP in Unicode characters on Box.

   However, Windows OS supports many Unicode characters(eg, emoji), besides BMP, so this can be a problem in data migration from a file servers to Box.

   Also, in CJK, Unicode characters other than BMP are used in personal name, so we consider this to be a big issue.

   We hope to have many Unicode characters available everywhere on Box.

4. Combine Executed Signed Docs and Signature Log

   Currently, when you send a document to be signed, the signed executed document and signature log are saved as separate files. It would be nice if the signed doc and signature log were one document and saved as an updated version of the original document. Currently, it turns 1 document into 3 documents, and clutters up the folders.

5. Please add the ability for multiple users to modify a single workflow.

   In some cases, such as long vacations, it is very inconvenient if only the workflow creator can perform maintenance.
   This function allows multiple people to edit the workflow, which leads to operational convenience and other benefits.

   (Japanese)
   「1つのワークフローを複数のユーザーで修正できる機能を追加してほしい。」

   長期休暇など、ワークフロー作成者しかメンテナンスを行えないと非常に不便なケースがあります。
   この機能の実装により、複数名で編集することが可能になるため、運用上の利便性等につながります。

7. We want users to be able to output a "folder and file" report for each folder.

   (Japanese follows English)
   Currently, only administrators can output the "Folders and Files" report.
   We would like users with editor permissions for the target folder to be able to output a "Folder and File" report for each folder.
   At that time, We would like to be able to select whether the report will be output to that folder or the output destination.

   現在、「フォルダとファイル」レポートは管理者しか出力できません。
   対象のフォルダに対し編集者権限を持つユーザーが、フォルダ単位で「フォルダとファイル」レポートを
   出力できるようにしてほしいです。
   その際レポートの出力先はそのフォルダ内か、出力先を選択できると望ましいです。

9. Folder Level Setting to Enable Office Online

   It would be outstanding if Box could enable some intelligence around editing office documents, and/or have a switch you could set to only allow designated files to be editable via Office Online. That way no one could accidentally step on changes to a file that someone else made, or cause a conflict which has to be manually resolved. This would be a real big win. And when I say designated files, I mean in a folder not across Box for all of us certain file type.

10. Fix file/folder size, counts, dates and storage

    I'd like to preface this by saying that this is a bug that needs to be fixed, not an idea. Even so, Box suggested we post this here to get others to chime in and say that this should be fixed.

    This is a problem that's been around for at least 1.5 years.

    Often, when an account's folders and files are transferred to someone else, the account from which the data was transferred still shows something greater than 0 bytes owned. This becomes a problem for deleting that user, because we can't be sure if the transfer worked, and we don't want to delete an account that has data that will be lost forever. This seems to happen, more often than not, for accounts that have a lot of owned data prior to the transfer.

    At the moment the workaround is to have a script run every day to detect when this has happened, and to then create a Box ticket to have someone in Box support run their own homegrown script that rectifies the situation for the individual account. (Note, Box created this script because this is a known problem that they have to regularly fix.) So, it takes our time to detect it and create the ticket, and it takes Box's time to fix it and deal with the ticket. This happens almost every week at least one time.

    After 1.5 years, it's about time to fix this readily reproducible problem!

    on roadmap  ·  Adminhadesara (Product Manager, Box) responded

    We are on track towards fixing this. We have made significant improvements in our Files, and Folder counts and their related sizes. They now happen in a near realtime speed and we also have a redundant process that runs and fixes these counts nightly. The current improvements are visible in most of your folders browsing experience and the enterprise level counts. We are in process of fixing counts that you can see for a given user, this will release in Calendar year 2024'Q3. There are also few minor improvements planned for the last quarter of the year.

11. Dragging files or folders out of BOX makes a copy

    With the recent update to BOX Drive, when you move something from BOX to your computer it removes it from BOX. It used to make a copy by default. We use BOX as a shared file server and this change allows for accidental deletion.

    Can you please add the ability to make this copy rather than move the file, only when moving out of BOX onto the computer or an outside volume?

12. Microsoft Teams iOS app does not open the specific Box folder.

    We're having an issue with Microsoft Teams app on iPhone - Box files plug-in within More tab. It is very possible that this Box Files button in Teams is not designed to link to the specific channel Box folder we have chosen, and instead is designed to redirect us to the All Files page "https://account.box.com/folder/0". On Windows PC, Teams app opens the the specific channel Box folder we have chosen.

14. I would like to be able to view the history of previous versions of files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the Box Web

    内容：
    We would like to be able to check the contents of Excel files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the preview screen by clicking on the older version, just like Word, pptx, and other Office files.
    The only way to check the contents of the old version is to download or make the old version the latest version, which is very inconvenient.
    Achieving this functionality will increase operational efficiency and convenience.

    [タイトル]Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したファイルの旧バージョン履歴をBox Webのプレビュー上で閲覧できるようにしてほしい。

    Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したExcelファイルでも、Wordやpptx等のOfficeファイル同様に旧バージョンをクリックすることでプレビュー画面上から中身を確認出来るようにしたい。
    旧バージョンの中身を確認する場合はダウンロードか旧バージョンを最新バージョンにする方法しかなく非常に不便です。
    この機能を実現することで業務効率や利便性が上がります。

15. iOS Files app "waiting to upload" problem/getting stuck

    Awhile back I could not get the iOS Files to work with Box documents. They would get stuck in the "waiting to upload." While they were helpful, I spent several emails with Box assistants and we couldn't find a solution and gave up. It seems obvious, but I finally figured out what happened. The Microsoft Office applications in iOS require an Office 365 account to edit documents. My Office 365 is through my work, and I am in education, so of course we get a terrible email at first and immediately start using the email alias. When Office required the account to edit documents, I used my non-alias email to sign in (it is what I used to originally set the account) but in Box, my alias email was primary. And with only three emails (primary and two linked) I didn't have the non-alias email there. That is pretty clearly where the conflict was coming from. I added my non-alias email address as a linked address, and now Files is working like a charm. Seems obvious, but I bet I'm not the only person this happened to with Office on mobile. Thanks

16. Drag and Drop between two browser tabs of the Box Webapp

    Allow drag and drop of files and folders from the Box Webapp on one browser tab to the Box Webapp in another browser tab. We often need to search through a large list of project related files to find the place we would like to store information that was created in multiple task related folders. We want to be able to open a task related folder on one tab and the project folder on another tab and then just drag and drop between the tabs. Otherwise, we end up re-searching for the project in the copy and move menu numerous times depending on the number of tasks.

18. Have a Sync Now option for files

    Box Sync on Windows 10 consistently fails to sync, but claims to be up to date. I can see the actual current version on the website, by my local persistently stays several versions back. Fixing that would be great, but also just giving a way to say, "I know you think you're up to date, but sync anyway" would make this less frustrating.

20. File Request should be back to the original page after uploading
