  1. Ability to populate a metadata date field with current date

    We need to log when an approval has occurred. Populating the metadata date field with the current date would be very beneficial.

  2. Searching for names with & does not work

    Hi, we have a group called M&A - you cannot actually share any folders or files with this group through the traditional methods because searching for M M& or M&A does not produce the group on box.com

  3. Box Relay Outcome for applying current date upon a file upload

    Currently with Box Relay and a Metadata date field you can set a date to be applied upon a file or folder upload. However, you can not select 'current date'. It will only apply a date that you have selected at the time of crafting the relay. It would be great to have an automation to set a date based on when the file was uploaded to Box.

  4. Improve on Download log in the Activity Log

    Currently when trying to access to a file that does not have a collaboration right, it is registered as download in the activity report.
    I have heard the support team that this is expected behaviour due to the backend work to read the thumbnail.
    However, when looking at the activity log, it looks like a user has "downloaded" that file even though they do not have access to it so would like the report to not show "download" but something else to know that the user hasn't actually downloaded that file.

  5. Update Shield Access Policy Restriction for Box Sign

    For the Box Sign Request Restriction, add the option allow a signature request, but require additional security controls (e.g., signer authentication, password) for the signature request.

    We need the ability to send sensitive content for signature but don't want it sent using a public link.

  6. Concurrently list the EIDs of the sandbox and primary tenant in the “Enterprise ID” field in Account & Billing.

    We currently use several Box tenants.

    We have created a sandbox for each tenant, but we are having trouble confirming which sandbox is tied to which primary tenant.

    Please write the EID of the sandbox and the EID of the primary tenant together in “Enterprise ID” in the Administration Console > Account & Billing.

    <Example>

    Enterprise ID:123456 (Primary tenant: 456789)

    ■「アカウントと請求」の「Enterprise ID」欄に、サンドボックスとプライマリテナントのEIDを併記する

    現在、弊社では、複数のBoxテナントを利用しています。

    それぞれのテナントにサンドボックスを作成しているのですが、どのサンドボックスがどのプライマリテナントに紐づいているのか確認することができず、困ることがあります。

    管理コンソール>アカウントと請求 の「Enterprise ID」にサンドボックスのEIDとプライマリテナントのEIDを併記してください。

    <例>

    Enterprise ID:123456(プライマリテナント:456789)

  8. Folder tree order up side down when move/copy

    In folder view on Web Application, upper folder tree view is shown when working with deep folders.(left corner)
    The display order of this tree view and the tree view displayed when you "move/copy" a file are up side down.
    (where[...]mouse hober over)
    (Folder hierarchy ascending/descending order)
    So, when moving files, there is a possibility of causing a mistake in the destination.

    Normal folder view: 1st>2nd>3rd>4th>5th

    View on Move/Copy: 5th>4th>3rd>2nd>1st

    It's happy to be if it is a same display order.

    Most of users remain on Box Drive/explorer, for a transformation, we would like to recommend Box web application for users.…

  9. When dragging files to your desktop from BOX it should be a default of COPY, instead the default is MOVE. Unfortunately when user MOVES the

    After upgrading to Monterey, Box Drive has made a significant change in behavior where dragging a file from Box Drive to the local filesystem moves the file, rather than the previous behavior of copying the file. It will still copy if you're dragging the file to removable media, but not the local Mac drive.

    Anyone know of a way to alter this behavior back to the previous?

    It causes three fairly significant issues.

    One, if someone needs a local copy of a file for travel, offline, whatever, now it's removed from Box and no one else can access it if…

  10. Ability to sync folders across multiple users

    My corporation has several regionally-controlled folders containing information that should be the same. Right now, that information has to be manually copied and/or reconciled to ensure the data is the same. I would like the ability to connect multiple folders from different users to ensure that the data is always synchronized across the regionally-controlled folders.

  11. Auto "Add Box to this Chat" in Teams

    With Box for MS Teams, you can use an App Setup Policy in Teams so the Box app always shows under your chat box so you can easily find it. With that, if you select it and choose one of the options for Upload or Share, you are then prompted to "Add Box to this Chat".

    Can that just be automatically added to all chats and channels?

  12. If you approve a document without signing it with BoxSign, the PDF will not become a signed file.

    I would like the PDF to be treated as a signed file even if a signature field is not used in BoxSign and a user with the role of Approver approves it.In some cases, a signature field may not be necessary because a log is kept even if approval is given.

    in Japanese
    BoxSignで署名フィールドを使用せず、役割が承認者となっているユーザーが承認した場合も、pdfが署名済みファイルとして扱われるようにしてほしい。

    承認した場合もログは残るため、署名フィールドが不要なケースもある。

  13. Upload size maximum of Mobile

    When uploading files from the mobile app, the maximum upload limit is 15 GB, regardless of the plan.
    We would like this limit to be the same as the upload limit of the plan we have purchased.

    <モバイルアプリのアップロード上限>
    モバイルアプリからのファイルアップロードする場合、プランに関わらずアップロード可能な上限は15GBまでとなっています。
    この上限を購入しているプランのアップロード上限と同じにしてほしいです。

  14. Unable to move Box files to new hard drive

    I added a larger, secondary drive to my computer, and I'd like to move the Box Drive and off line files to this second drive. This is because the C-drive is 90% full while the new terabyte drive is almost empty. I need to free up space on the C-drive. I was told "customizing the Box Drive folder does not change where Box Drive stores its app data or cached files, including items marked for offline use, so customizing the folder will not save disk space if you relocate the folder to another drive".

  15. Add date and time of application of classification labels to the Classification Report

    The current classification report lists which content is assigned which classification label, but does not show the date and time the label was applied or the user who applied the label.
    The date of application and the user who applied the label are displayed in the folder/file details, but this is only the case when the classification label is applied manually.

    We would like to add an item to the classification report because it is expected to take time to investigate the cause when a classification label is unintentionally changed, and there is a security risk such as information leakage…

  17. Customization of Main Screen

    There should be away that you do not have to view all of the files and folders that you have been to invited to collaborate on when you are in Box. Currently, there is only All Files which shows folders and documents that I can't move, organize, or hide because I don't own them. There should be an option to customize my view to just my files and folders. There could also be an option to view just collaboration files and folders. That way, All Files could remain as it is., but I would not have to see the clutter…

  19. Collaborations Report: Add Folder Filter

    My customer would like to filter down to a specific parent folder and see a report on all collaborators on that root folder and all child folders below. Right now the Collaborations report shows ALL folders which takes a long time to run and requires filtering after the report is run. Ideally we could filter to the correct folder at the beginning.
