We want to give our users a means of clicking a button (relay/workflow?) or adding custom documents to the “New” Menu where they can click a button and essentially get a copy of a company branded document. We want to use this so users can say, “hey, I need a document labeled at Internal/Proprietary”… without them having to reinvent the wheel everytime. In SharePoint you would create a custom template and add it to the “New” menu in there.  I have yet to find an effective way to do this in box. 

Hi Community,I was exploring Box Automate and noticed the new AI Agents/Automate Builder features shown in the latest Box documentation and community posts (such as Extract Agent, Box Agent, HTTPS Request, advanced workflow builder, etc.).Currently, I’m unable to see these options in our tenant. Could you please help confirm:Whether these features are available for our account/plan If any beta or early-access enablement is required Whether Box AI / AI Agents can be enabled for our environment If there are any admin settings or permissions needed to access these workflow capabilitiesOur use case is to automate workflows like:File Upload → AI Summary/Extraction → Slack Notification/API Actions.Please let me know the process to enable or request access for these features.Thanks!

Hello,I would like our users to be able to register a security key next to their authenticator app for 2FA purposes. Is there an admin setting which allows registering multiple 2FA options or is this limited to only a single method/type?Thank you,Rene

My access is under AEC collection only.  I cannot upload files in cloud having AEC collection license only.  I tried Forma Build 30-day trial and I was able to upload files such as Navisworks nwd file.  Is there a way to upload nwd file to cloud even if my account is set as Admin of Autodesk software with AEC collection licenses?

As part of the broader rollout of the updated Box Drive for Windows — a ground-up rebuild of Box Drive built on native Windows OS APIs — we want to make sure no one on Arm-based Windows devices misses out. Box Drive is now fully supported on Arm Windows with no special configuration required. If your organization has users on Arm hardware (Surface Pro X, Snapdragon-powered laptops, and similar devices), this is your chance to make sure they all now have access to Box Drive. The new Box Drive for Windows brings meaningful improvements: deeper File Explorer integration with richer sync status icons, a native Windows context menu, Known Folder Redirection support via GPO, the ability to mark individual files (not just folders) for o

First day with Box. I’m trying to add users and getting this error. 

We are excited to introduce new admin controls for the Box MCP server, providing enterprises with the essential guardrails needed to manage how AI agents interact with their content.With a dedicated Box MCP server tab in the Admin Console, admins can set access levels for tool categories like Files and Folders, Search, and Collaboration. They can choose Disabled, Read-Only, Read & Write, or Custom settings, and even enable or disable specific tools. The update also includes invisible guardrails, which hide disabled tools from end users, and full auditability so admins can track configuration changes. These controls are designed to help enterprises support AI agents safely across clients like Cla

Hi! I have worked to update our enterprise settings to make it possible for external folks to have edit access without logging in. It does not currently seem possible. Please let me know what else I should look at. I am sorry, I know others have had similar questions but I am not sure I have seen the outcome I am looking for. Thanks,Kaid

I have removed/deleted a number of external users from the Admin screen.  But they are still listed on the folders as users.  How does this work?  Can they technically still access those folders if they were to log in again?  To i really have to manually go to every folder that they had access to and remove them there too. (That seems like a management nightmare!)

I would like this free trail canceled ASAP.  The directions to cancel a trial do not work.  

I am adding a user but it gives me an error “invitation available for freemium account holders”. Not sure what to do from there. Any help would be great!

I have two Box accounts. How can I merge them all into one account.

As Admin, I need to downgrade an existing managed user to a free plan, transfer ownership of their files to a different managed user but keep their ability (on the free plan as an external user) to access files that were previously shared with them (with their existing email).

It’s been >2 years since this limitation was identified and it doesn't appear to have been resolved.  Most managers and executives are always on the go relying heavily on their mobile content to make decisions and find information quickly.  We implemented Hubs for these fast paced executives and now we find that Hubs is not visible on their mobiles.  The work around of viewing it on the desktop app is cumbersome and has issues.  Sometimes creating the shortcut on the mobile’s home screen doesn’t work or you have to sign in every time you open it.  Why can’t Box just correct the application to show Hubs??

I have a user who accidentally moved their personal Box folder into a folder that is shared with nearly 4 dozen people. When I try to move the folder back where it belongs, I get an error. When I try to remove the other collaborators from the folder, I receive a warning that this will also remove them from the parent folder as the permissions are inherited. I just need to get the user’s folder back in their personal Box, but I don’t want to disrupt access to the parent folder and subsequent child folders for nearly 4 dozen other users. Surely there is a more simplified way to achieve this?

My employee originally set up the Box Account. I need to change the Admin user

I tried three times to purchase the upgrade for my space, but each time I get blocked with a message that says something like: “Your account needs further verification, please submit a ticket to customer support.” What should I do?

I am trying to add a user but it says the email is already used in Box but not associated with an enterprise. How do I add them to my group? 

we had set up Box few years back and had a different domain name then. we had re branded and wanted to change the Box login to the new one. it did not allow us to do. so had upgraded to business plus plan but even then it was not working.  so have created a new login and uploaded the contents and have bought the business plus plan. now i want to downgrade the older version to a free version as i do not want to pay twice. can anyone assist me with this please as to how this can be done. thank you 

Is it possible to leave a folder where it is and change its permissions to read-only?The scenario here is that this is a subfolder of our company wide drive, and we are reorganizing our folder structure and layout. We want to leave this original folder available to all, but force adoption of the new location by making the old one into read-only. However, since this folder lives in a company wide location, everyone has editor access. I can’t flip this subfolder to read-only without disrupting the whole tree. Is there a way to make this subfolder into read-only without having to removing it from the folder tree and move it somewhere new. I really don’t want to pull the rug out from the users and have them deal with two new locations versus one new location to deal with.  

Is there a minimum contract period for monthly payment plans?For example, can I use it for 3 months and then cancel? 月額払いでの契約の場合、最低契約期間はありますか？例えば、3か月使って、その後解約することはできるのでしょうか？
