External Users Delete (Aug 2025) GA | Admins can now remove up to 100 external users in one API call. The job runs in the background and sends a completion report that lists any successes or failures. This fast, consistent process saves Admin time and tightens security. |
Conditional fields in Box Sign (Aug 2025) GA | With conditional fields users can set up conditions to allow various fields to interact with each other, and enables users to expose specific fields when the specified conditions are met. This condition can be a single event, like checking a single checkbox, or it can be a combination of events where one of those events must occur to successfully meet the condition. |

Users will gain more visibility into their Box files on Slack, such as enhanced previews, file details and conversations right in Slack without switching between apps. |
