  1. Adding a Modified field in box online UI.

    The "Updated" menu really needs to be configured or have a filter to now show Uploaded as an update. This is very important when moving data to box. I've just finished a box shuttle of about 60TB and 15 years of data. Everything is showing as Updated in the last couple of weeks. This makes it near on impossible to find data easily from years ago at a glance. If this filed can't have a filter then we really need another field called "Modified" So it reads as "Name" "Updated" "Modified" "Size" I shouldn't need to get the properties of…

  2. Ability to create a stamp template for my company within Box Sign

    I work in the field of mental health, where they require a visible "stamp" that denotes who received a document and the date it was received. It would be very helpful if I had the ability to create a stamp template within Box Sign which can fulfill this requirement. Currently, we would have to create a new stamp any time a document would need to be stamped, which is very time consuming. The only way around this currently is to physically stamp the document and then upload it, which is also time consuming.

  3. Box for Slack: Enable Admin to set the default value of instant permission on shared box files

    Would like to allow admins to set enterprise-wide default way the Box for Slack app automatically adjust permissions of shared files on Slack. Also it would be better if each users cannot change those default settings on Slack app.

    Box for slack integration allows users to automatically grant channel participants access to Box files shared in Slack.
    (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/10012306628755-Instant-permissions-on-shared-Box-files-in-Slack)

    Currently, each user can set default access (Inviting collaborators or creating a Shared Link) as they like, but admins cannot control the enterprise-wide default setting.
    However, if users set the default setting as invite collaborators and Slack integration invite collaborator…

  4. Make the administrative contact modifiable.

    The topmost administrative account is exposed in the account details for every user. Can you make this modifiable? We use separation of account privileges in our IT units, so each member has both a standard and a privileged account. Because my privileged account has those rights, it is listed in the contact information for our Box tenant. It sure would be nice to have it set to a monitored group email address...I'm not always in the office and an email could sit for quite a while if I'm on leave or ill.

  5. Movement between Tenant

    Currently when you make a movement between a Box tenant, based on Folder and File, the behaviour is different.

    Folder: it will be an error
    File: it will be moved without any message

    I would like it to be error for Files movement and also copying too.

  7. Real time alert if user accesses Box from a new location/device

    Currently we get a Daily Login Activity report. This is a daily report and most important piece of information on it is report of new logins with information like user, device, time, and IP address..

    Unfortunately this is daily and can only be on or off.

    Requesting the ability to enable real time notification instead of the daily.
    As it relates to security, immediate notification is critical for unauthorized access.

  9. Add shortcuts in editing notes

    There is many shortcuts missing that could be very useful for users:
    - text justify (left, right, center)
    - creating new rows in tables (when creating a table on the go, adding new rows with mouse is very annoying)
    - merging table cells

    The ones in tables are especially annoying in my opinion. Without shortcuts using tables is not very useful

  10. Invite all users who have sent an email to the email address associated with the folder

    currently, Co-admins are manually inviting users to folders.
    Inviting is generated for the number of projects, it takes man-hours each time, so we want to make it easy to invite.

    For example, we would like to have a mechanism that can invite all users who have sent an email to the email address associated with the folder.

    [How to use]
    Generate an email address associated with the folder
    (It is assumed to be something like an email address for uploading emails)
    Give this email address to the user we want to invite
    Each user will send an email to this…

  14. Ability of business to enable/disable password protection of documents/folders function

    The functionality allowing users to password protect documents and folders, should be manageable at the top level, as this function may cause problems with managing content if over used by users.

    A simple enable/disable toggle for each group of users (Previewer, Editor etc) - so that users may/may not have the ability to password protect documents/folders depending on their permissions in particular locations

    Admin Console - reporting locations and details of password protected documents and folders

  17. Lifting or pulling up the limitation of 100

    Currently, when the box admin wants to enable Box features like Sign, Canvas etc., to partical users and groups, the #s of users and groups are limited to 100.
    Could you consider lifting or pulling up the limitation ?
    I know that making groups is a solution when the box admin want to add more than 100 employees. It is bit taking time to makie groups, and want to make it more easier.
    I would like to know why 100 is set as a limitation.

  18. I want to display 'File Description' in the filtering options on the file list.

    I would like to display the 'Description' field configured through file requests in parallel with 'Size' or 'Last Modified' on the file list screen. Having to hover over the 'i' icon every time is inconvenient.

    ファイルリクエストで設定した「説明」の項目を、ファイル一覧画面で「サイズ」や「更新日」と並列に表示させたいです。いちいち「i」のアイコンにマウスオーバーするのは面倒です。

  19. Upload, copy and paste .DES files.

    I can't paste in my Box Drive folder .des files that come from a software I use. I can upload them manually to the cloud in the web app, but those files won't sync either. This never happened with other cloud service software and I can't work without those files and the program won't run.
    Please accept .des files so I can use Box for my work.

  20. Improve performance of co-authoring in Box Drive

    It takes 5 minutes or more for Box Drive to show co-authored changes. Even if that change is done by just one person. Basically , if a change is made by someone on a file and he closes the file, the file is not updated for about 5 minutes. When attached right away to a email, the attachment will still have the previous version.

    These may be reflected in documents once opened, however, cannot be seen in the Box Drive window. The 'last updated' date and time does not reflect when a document has co-authored saved changes.

    This is extremely…
