  1. Function to check recipent later

    Share > Shared Link - Send Shared Link "ON" > Messages (optional)

    When we click the "Share" icon and add or send an email address from "Send a shared link (email icon)", the history will not remain in the sent folder of the mailer (outlook) we are using.
    We would like you to add a function that allows you to check later which destination the transmission was sent to.

  2. Artwork filing system

    Hi. It would be great if your folder system allowed you to put a preview image on the skin of the folder so you could indicate visually what is inside the folder rather than just showing the standard folder image and the word "LOGO" for example. The folder skin could show a preview of the LOGO that is contained inside the folder.
    It would be better if you could decide what the image was that it showed, rather than it randomly selecting something that was in the folder though.

  3. Behavior of checkbox [Disable all email notifications for all collaborators] in folder settings.

    [Email and Notifications] section in folder settings ([...] > [Settings]) , when the settings saved with checkbox [Disable all email notifications for all collaborators] selected, the radio buttons [Use my default notification settings] and [Override default settings for this folder and all subfolder] remaining inactive even if the checkbox selections cleared.
    Therefore, when I change the setting of radio buttons I have to save it once.
    It is inconvenient, so it needs to be improved so that radio buttons can be activated without saving once when the checkbox is cleared.

    日本語(Japanese):
    フォルダに対する[...]>[設定]>[メールと通知]セクションで[すべてのコラボレータへのすべてのメール通知を無効化する]が選択されている状態で設定が保存されていると、選択を解除しても[デフォルトの通知設定を使用する]、[このフォルダとすべてのサブフォルダのデフォルト設定を上書きする]のラジオボタンが非活性のままであり、選択を解除した状態で一度保存しないと上記2つのボタンが活性状態に戻らないのは不便である。
    そのため、[すべてのコラボレータへのすべてのメール通知を無効化する]の選択を解除したタイミングで[デフォルトの通知設定を使用する]、[このフォルダとすべてのサブフォルダのデフォルト設定を上書きする]のラジオボタンが活性化するようUIを改善してほしい。

  4. Ability to set file sorting preferences

    Save/set file sort preferences. E.g., by "name, ascending." Set different sort preferences for different folders + universal sort preference setting.

  5. Support & governance

    Allow all users, even free users, to publish a ticket to support for resolution, as was the case in the past. If this is not the case, you might as well delete the accounts of your free users, given the serious consequences they may suffer if their problems remain unresolved. This will prevent the worst from happening. It would surely be fairer and better for Box's governance.

  6. About file display

    ・I would like to be able to fix the sort order of files when opening folders (many users want to sort by file name).

    ・I want the viewer screen to open in a separate tab after clicking on a file.

    ・I want the screen to open in a separate tab after clicking "+*users" to confirm the shared users.

  8. Set Custom Time for File Request or Shared Link expiration

    Have the ability to set an expiration time in the Web App on the Box File Request. The use case is a submission use case where the need is to have uploads shut off at 3pm vs the default of 11:59pm. The ability to set a different time can only be done at the API/CLI level for the Shared Link only and not the File Request. In addition, you can not set a time within the WebApp for either. This functionality could be extended to other use cases with collaborator access shut off at a specific time of day.

  9. Collaboration Level to Navigate File Structure

    We need a collaboration level that only allows the ability to view file and folder names but can't preview, download, or upload anything. This would allow a user to be added at the top level with this permission and navigate the file structure until they see the one they're assigned to. If you only share the subfolders, then your All Files navigation fills up fast with unconnected folders and names that may not be easy to identify what that folder contains.

  11. Reminder of auto deletion?

    With auto deletion, could you tick a box if you would like to be reminded of the deletion, confirming you are happy to delete? With an option to extend the deletion date?

    We would find this beneficial, as we set our files at a year from when the project ended, however sometimes our projects go longer. A reminder would be helpful to triple check we are happy with deleting.

    Thanks

  12. Relay: Trigger from External shared folder

    Would like the ability to create Box Relay workflows where the trigger is in an External folder. My specific use case is our bookkeeping partner provides us dozens of files per day across several processes, and they use Box on their end to manage that process. We'd like to have for the folders that they share with us the ability to create a Relay flow that would trigger when they add files to those folders (e.g. When a new file is added to External ABC, create a copy in Internal ABC and notify some users).

    This would allow us to…

  14. Owner off documents/folder can set it to be edited with online apps only

    Allow anyone who creates a folder or document (not just the company/enterprise) to set if a document can be downloaded, or if it is editable only in the online version (ie: Microsoft office online). Being able to download, edit, and save causes a lot of problems with different versions coming into existence! We have box drive, box edit, box for outlook, etc enabled, and it's causing problems for multi-user documents.

  15. Dedicated File Shortcuts without using Bookmarks

    Currently if I want to create a link from one folder to a file or folder stored elsewhere in the system, the recommendation is to use Bookmarks. This method has several disadvantages.

    • First, it requires creating the link on the target file or folder, meaning you need to navigate away from the folder where the bookmark needs to exist.
    • Second, shared links can be removed, disabled, or expired, which would break the bookmark.
    • Third, bookmarks do not work in Box Drive.

    I would suggest a dedicated mechanism within the Box system for creating and maintaining shortcuts, which…

  17. Make future Terms of Service updates accessible to non-visual users/available on a.box

    We have blind and low vision members of our Box team. They typically use a.box to conduct business with us. These team members lost access to files with the recent Terms of Service update (March 2023) and I'm told by those users that a.box did not offer any explanation, and the Terms of Service acceptance form was not available to them on the platform. They had to log in to the main Box.com platform to find that form, and it was not accessible for non-visual users there. Those users required sighted assistance to complete the form and renew access to…

  18. Please add the ability for multiple users to modify a single workflow.

    In some cases, such as long vacations, it is very inconvenient if only the workflow creator can perform maintenance.
    This function allows multiple people to edit the workflow, which leads to operational convenience and other benefits.

    (Japanese)
    「1つのワークフローを複数のユーザーで修正できる機能を追加してほしい。」

    長期休暇など、ワークフロー作成者しかメンテナンスを行えないと非常に不便なケースがあります。
    この機能の実装により、複数名で編集することが可能になるため、運用上の利便性等につながります。

  19. Box Pulse ideas - allow screenshots to be added BEFORE approval

    When someone takes the time to provide a Box Pulse idea, it is invariably done at the time that an issue occurs. However, by not allowing screenshots to be added (until after approval), the opportunity to receive valuable screenshots justifying the change/enhancement is often lost, as it may be difficult/impossibly to return to the same situation/location to take new screenshots later. Allow screenshots to be added before approvals
