  1. Use Issuer Label prefix in TOTP URI for MFA to conform to recommendations

    When setting up MFA using authenticator app, the QR code you generate does not provide Issuer Label Prefix in the label.

    This is not according to TOTP recommendations:
    https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format#issuer

    Your format is:
    otpauth://totp/<EMAIL-ADRESS>?secret=<SECRET>&issuer=Squarespace&digits=6&period=30

    This leads Microsoft Authenticator to use the name <email-domain>, for example "gmail" or "outlook", for the account, as per https://github.com/google/google-authenticator/wiki/Key-Uri-Format#label

    If another website implements the same bad QR code format as you, on iOS one of the two will be overwritten, and you will loose access to that site.

    Squarespace uses the same bad formatting, so chances of catastrophe is big. (I will also be reaching out…

  2. [Support preview of ".xct" files] Support preview of ".xct" files

    We use DocuWorks for our business.
    At this time, the Box preview supports ".xdw" and ".xbd", but unfortunately ".xct" is not yet supported.

    A similar request was submitted on the following BoxPulse, which was "Delivered" as of 09/2022, but only the ".xct" is still not in preview.
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/39875047-preview-files-about-xdw-xbd-and-xct-in-box-for-io

    Therefore, we need to register Fujifilm's source files with AppleStore in order to use DocuWorks from Box for EMM.
    It is very inconvenient that ".xct" cannot be previewed when using DocuWorks, so please add it to the preview support list.


    弊社では業務にDocuWorksを利用しています。
    現時点では、Boxのプレビューでは「.xdw」と「.xbd」に対応していますが、残念ながら「.xct」には未対応です。

    以下のBoxPulseで類似の要望が投稿されており、
    2022年09月の時点で「配信済み」になっていますが、現在も「.xct」のみプレビュー対象になっていません。
    https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/39875047-preview-files-about-xdw-xbd-and-xct-in-box-for-io

    そのため、弊社ではBox for EMMからDocuWorksを利用するにあたって、AppleStoreに富士フィルムのソースファイルを登録する必要が生じています。
    DocuWorksを利用するにあたり、「.xct」がプレビューできないのは大変不便なのでプレビューのサポート対象に加えてください。

  5. Ability to tag groups

    I want a function like Teams' "tag".
    Currently, only individuals can mention comments in the data saved in the box,
    I would like to be able to mention in groups.
    Can't you make better use of groups in your management console?
    One of the features of box is that multiple people can edit the same data at the same time, and there are also convenient functions such as comment fields and mention functions.
    Please consider further improving usability.

    Teamsの「タグ」のような機能が欲しい。
    現状、box内に保存したデータ内のコメントにメンションできるのは個人だけだが、
    グループでメンションをできるようにしてほしい。
    管理コンソールのグループを上手く活用できないでしょうか?
    boxには一つのデータを複数人同時編集が可能という特徴があり、コメント欄とメンション機能という便利な機能もあります。
    さらに使い勝手を良くするために検討をお願いします。

  7. Please display the time range (hh:mm:ss) in the update date column.

    When sorting search results by modified date, the time (hh:mm:ss) is not displayed in the modified date column.
    This makes it difficult to guess the time range and find the file in the search results if many files were updated on the same day.
    Please display the time range (hh:mm:ss) in the update date column.

    検索結果を更新日時でソートする場合、更新日時の列に時間(hh:mm:ss)が表示されません。
    このため、同じ日に多くのファイルが更新された場合、時間範囲を推測して検索結果からファイルを見つけることが困難です。
    更新日欄に時間範囲(hh:mm:ss)を表示してください。

  9. Show file paths on "Error updating *** items..."

    If BoxDrive has some errors, it shows error on "Error updating *** items..." by clicking the gear icon.
    Then the error window says, "The original file was deleted on Box" on my environment.
    But it doesn't show the paths, but also filenames.
    So it would be very helpful if you could improve it to show the filenames and its path.

    Environment:
    macOS 13.6.7 (22G720)
    Box Drive 2.39.179

  10. Box Wiki Feature

    I want to be able to create a universal wiki that I can embed Sonar (for Salesforce) data dictionary views into, embed LucidChart and LucidSpark documents, and create general dictionaries, protocols, procedures and knowledge for the organization, department, and teams. I would like to be able to control access levels or wiki articles and article groups.

  11. Request to improve the behavior of files with "Download and Print Restrictions" set on Box Drive

    In Shield > Access Policy, we are creating a classification label for the policy that has "Restrict downloading and printing" set as the security control.
    Depending on when you set this label classification, Box Drive may not have the limitations you expect.
    I would like to see an improvement so that files with "Download and Print Restrictions" set cannot be opened or copied in Box Drive from the moment the settings are set.

    The specific steps and events are as follows.
    1. Open the file before setting the classification label in Box Drive.
    2. Edit, save and close the file.…

  12. Request for the ability to zoom in and out and preview clearly after displaying TIF.

    When viewing a TIF file in a browser, it is clear, but in a mobile app, the TIF file is not clear
    When viewing a TIF file in a mobile app, it is difficult to view it via the mobile app because there is no zoom in/out function, so it is pinch-enlarged and not clear even when zoomed in, so it must be downloaded to a local library for viewing.

  13. Allow Admins to Monitor for Sync Errors

    Currently if there are any sync errors in Box Drive the only way to identify them is for the user to notice the toast notification or click on the Box Drive systray icon. Relying on the end user to report errors is not reliable and almost caused us to lose data going back several years.

    The only way errors are logged is in the Box Drive log files but no one from Box or Box Support is willing to share how those are logged for admins to monitor.

    Box Drive needs to better log any errors encountered so admins can…

  16. About scaling operations using the mouse wheel

    When displaying the preview screen in a web browser, using the mouse wheel will scale the entire screen along with the thumbnails and sidebar, but I would like to be able to scale only the content part.

  17. I have some files sorted into collections. It would be great if I could select all the files and tag them.

    Currently you have to tag each file in a collection individually. If you select all the tag option disappears.

  19. Audio/Video Playlists

    Add Audio/Video Playlists so that clients can more quickly review a folder or "album" of media content without having to click on a single file at a time while it loads in a new window in order to hear or watch it. Then having to arrow back to the original list to repeat the process for the full album. It would work much like you see an iTunes or Spotify album. You can click a "play" icon for one track and it plays while still seeing the other available tracks. Click the play button again to stop playback and chose…

  20. Hackathon is coming up.. steal my idea and please build it!!! Automatically name my files based on the content or metadata in the file

    There's a tiny company already doing this... but they're not running on our infrastructure, don't have access to the customer's we do....See: https://riffo.ai/

    Anyone who works in legal, operations, or has a type A level need for consistent naming conventions to be applied across folders will love this.
