  1. support editing of Open Office .odt, ods, and .odp files in Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides

    I'm asking for Box not to block certain file compatibility functionality that is aIready within Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets, when not used through Box. I would like to edit Open Office Formats .odt , .odp, and .ods files, preferably from with Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets respectively. MS Word does not support Open Office formats, otherwise I would request that as well. Somehow, Box is blocking Google Sheets and Docs from opening their Open Office file formats (.ods, .odp and .odt). Normally, Google Docs can open .odt files, if Box is not "in the way". See attached…

  2. Notification about Update of File

    If you share a link to a file or folder, is there a way for recipients on that file to be notified that the file has been updated or in the case of a folder that another file has been added?

    For example, when they receive the link, could there be a message that says, if you'd like to get updated about this file/folder enter your e-mail. Then Box has a way of sending them the updates.

  4. Support Copilot Integration with Multiple Box Environments under a Single Microsoft Tenant

    Many enterprises operate under a structure where a single Microsoft tenant is shared, while Box environments are separated by legal entity.
    With the current limitation that Copilot × Box integration is restricted to a 1:1 relationship, it is difficult to achieve both group-wide Copilot adoption and proper information governance.
    Enabling secure integration with multiple Box environments while maintaining a single Microsoft tenant would unlock significant value, including group-wide AI utilization, greater flexibility for M&A and organizational restructuring, and the avoidance of unnecessary Box environment consolidation or Microsoft tenant separation.

    Microsoft テナントが1つ、Box環境が法人ごとに分かれている企業構成は現実的に多く存在します。
    Copilot × Box 連携が 1:1 に限定されている現状では、グループ全体での Copilot 活用や情報ガバナンスの両立が困難です。…

  6. I'd like to be able to use Box AI when editing files in Office Online.

    I'd like to be able to use Box AI when editing files in Office Online.
    For example, I'd like to be able to ask Box AI to proofread a document I'm writing in Word, or ask it questions about functions or VBA in Excel.

  7. Sharing Policy - Allow Pasting of Multiple Domains

    The UX for admins to enter in domains on the Policies -> Sharing policy is pretty bad.

    Box does not currently allow admins to paste in a list of multiple (even 2) domains at the same time, whether they're separate by spaces, semicolons, etc.

    If we have a list of 40 domains to enter, the admin types them in one by one.

    Request: allow for copy/pasting of multiple domains at once, just like we allow for in the 'invite collaborators' pop-up in the webapp.

  8. Box File Request: Requests the ability to delete uploaded files by Content Submitters

    If the Content Submitters uploads a file while logged in with their Box account, please add a feature that allows the Content Submitters to be given delete permission the uploaded file within a set time (e.g. 15 minutes after upload).

    ファイルリクエスト:送信者によるアップロードファイルの削除機能についての要望

    送信者がBoxアカウントでログインした状態でファイルをアップロードした場合、設定した時間内(アップロード後15分間、など)について、アップロードファイルの削除権限を送信者に付与できる機能の追加を要望します。

  10. Provide a single API method to upload a file and apply metadata as an atomic operation

    Unified Upload API (File and Metadata) - Having a single API call to upload a file (or file(s)) with associated metadata would provide large improvements in error avoidance and development logic. Currently, this process must be completed with multiple API calls, which leaves space for errors and sullies the user experience.

  11. Ability to read files in view only MSFT Online

    With preview not always displaying the content accurately we would like the ability to open content in Office Online but with only viewer permission. This would allow users restricted to View only to view the content accurately.

  14. I would really love to be able to see and use my PDF bookmarks from within the Box preview service

    I have large PDF files that are stored on Box. Rather than having to always download the files I would like to use the bookmarks within the PDF to navigate even if I am in the Box Preview function.

    Thank you for considering this enhancement

  15. Automatically apply metadata and tags to folders and files with pulse

    Box provides users and organizations the ability to apply tags and metadata; however, trusting all users in an organization to know when and how to apply tags and metadata is not plausible.

    Box admins should be able to use Box Relay so that whenever a file or a folder is created/uploaded to a certain section of Box in our organization, then a tag or meta data flag is applied.

    Example:

    I have a folder called 2021 Tax Documents
    Tag I want Applied: 2021 Tax Documents
    Example File Name: File A

    In the example above, as soon as the example file…

  16. Add support for browser-initiated Print Preview when "showDownload=true" is applied to preview URL

    Currently when creating a preview link and using the browser's Print function, the preview (and thus printing) functionality is disabled.

    It would be helpful for user experience if the user didn't have to click our printer button in the previewer (which opens a new window then uses the system print preview) and could instead use the system controls for printing (cmd-P for example) if a preview URL is appended with "showDownload=true"

  19. Custom app to pull Access Stats on files/folders without admin privileges

    Goal: Obtain access statistics on files/folders via custom app with no admin privileges

    We have an enterprise app that manages one of our Box folders - i.e. the app is owner of the folder while most collaborators are just editors and some co-owners. Moreover, we have the 'hidden collaborators' setting enabled, which means that only owner and co-owners can view 'Access stats' in the browser. For other collaborators (being Editors) to view access stats, we would then pull the stats via the Box API - e.g. using the events endpoint. With our enterprise Box instance, however, we do not…
