Requesting addition of embedded images
I would like to embed photos in the body text of a paragraph on Box Hubs. I know you can link to an image on box.com in Box Hubs, but when I am making a how-to document I need to put multiple small images inside of a body of text. Linking to an image uploaded to box makes huge 1x1 preview squares.

Merge PDFs generated when uploading with Box Sign
Every time you upload a file to Box Sign, a PDF file is generated, which can make the data cluttered.
Is it possible to make it so that only the final combined data is generated as a PDF file?

New Box Drive for Windows (Cloud Files): Improve Explorer UX during startup/connecting to avoid unstable/incorrect folder state
Problem (What problem could Box solve for you?)
When Windows starts, the new Box Drive (Cloud Files architecture) auto-connects. During this “connecting/initializing” period, the Box Drive folder becomes visible in File Explorer even though Box Drive is not fully running/ready. The folder view is unstable: some items show missing icons/status, and opening folders can result in errors. This happens consistently across multiple users in our pilot.
This behavior may be aligned with the feature “Box Drive folders remain accessible even when the Box Drive application is not running,” but exposing a partially-initialized state causes confusion and support tickets (users think…4 votes -

Using public Beta for Folder Insights with Editor permissions
Most users who need Folder Insights are editors.
Also, invitations are often restricted for security reasons.
I would like to see Folder Insights and reports downloadable even for invite-restricted editors.-in Japanese-

We want to easily check the initial upload date of a file
Currently, the “Created” property shown for a file represents the date when the content was originally created, including in a local environment, and the “Modified” property indicates the date when the content was changed after being stored in Box.
Since the “Updated” date is overwritten every time a change is made, the only way to find the file’s “initial upload date” is to go through the version history and check the date of the very first version (Ver.1), which is time‑consuming.
Therefore, I would like a new “Initial Upload Date” field to be added to the file properties.
ファイルの初回アップロード日を簡単に確認したい:
現在、ファイルのプロパティで表示される「作成日」はローカル環境などを含めたコンテンツが作成された日を表しており、「変更日」はBox格納後にコンテンツが変更された日を指しています。…3 votes -
Request for improvement of the event where the cell date is different when previewing an Excel file
In Excel, if you enter a date in a cell with a custom format, a different date will be displayed when viewed with previewer permissions.
For example, if you enter "2026/1/1", if you check it with the previewer permission, it will be displayed as "2026/10/12".
This event is described below.Introducing Box Preview – Box Support
https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044195013-Introducing-Box-Preview“Date values with the custom format "yyyy/m/d (aaa)" may show incorrect dates. This is due to a bug in the library that Box Content Preview has a dependency on. The workaround is to use a different format such as "yyyy/m/d (ddd)" or "yyyy/m/d".”

Automatic Approval Removal When Deleting Apps
Since the maximum number of app approvals is limited to 100, periodic deletion of apps is required. However, at present we must request Box to perform these deletions.
We’d like both JWT and OAuth authentication to automatically revoke authorization when an app is deleted in the developer console.
If the service account owns any content, we would like a dialog similar to the one shown when deleting a user, allowing us to choose whether to move or delete the content.
アプリ承認の上限数が100であるため、定期的な削除が必要ですが、現状はBoxに依頼をする必要があります。
JWT 認証と OAuth認証の両方で、開発者コンソールでアプリを削除したときに自動的に承認を削除するようにして欲しいです。
もしサービスアカウントがコンテンツを持っている場合は、ユーザーの削除と同様のダイアログを表示してコンテンツを移動、削除どちらかを選択させたいです。4 votes -
Improvement of API performance and creation of guidelines for API usage
When utilizing Box’s API, if the amount of content per folder is enormous or the number of invitations to a folder is high, the processing speed drops significantly. As a result, it takes a long time to complete operations, which is quite frustrating.
We would like the API to deliver a more comfortable and speedy processing experience, so I hope you will improve the performance when using the API.
Additionally, there are currently no guidelines regarding API performance, so we have no choice but to verify performance degradation through testing.
This is hindering proactive API development. Please create clear guidelines…

No emails when a group is added to a Box Hub
I was surprised that I accidentally triggered an email to all members when adding a group as a collaborator to a Box Hub- this does not typically happen with folders. I would like an option to suppress this.

I want to reuse the content entered in File Request as a task message
We are running tasks in a Relay workflow, triggered by uploads via File Request.
In Box’s current specifications, the “file description” entered by users in the File Request form is saved in the file’s description field in its properties after upload.
However, when the Relay workflow starts, the message sent to the task assignee is the one configured in Relay. This message is recorded under the file’s “Activity,” but we also need to check the description field in the file properties, which means switching views and creates extra work.
If there were a feature that allowed us to set the…

Support for shared links in MCP
Add a shared link resolution tool to the Box MCP server that accepts a Box shared link URL and returns the corresponding file or folder ID and metadata. Shared links are the primary way our users share content in Box, and without this capability, an agent cannot act on a shared link that a user provides directly. Users share links with colleagues as a natural part of their workflow; they should be able to share them with an AI agent the same way.

API Endpoint to Manage Custom Apps

Redundant Shield alerts
Box Shield should be able to recognize when the same file or file set appears in multiple locations and treat it as a single item, rather than generating duplicate alerts across each instance. This would allow users to acknowledge (or dismiss) an alert globally—once for all occurrences—rather than having to clear it separately for every flagged file.
