  2. Add Mac package support to Box files accessed via the iOS Document Picker

    On iOS, we're using UIDocumentPickerViewController along with the UIDocumentPickerModeOpen to save and later edit files 'in place.'

    Unfortunately box.com converts document bundles to zip files without further notice on the file extension. This breaks any attempt to open and edit files 'in place' on iOS and on OS X.

  3. Search for multiple files at one time.

    Searching for 800 unique files that are in various folders in box.

    I am trying to narrow them down and move them to a single folder for organization purposes.

    I am currently only able to search for one file at a time but would like to have a way to import a list of names and search that way or at the very least a comma separated search function.

    Thank you for this feedback! This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

  4. Localization optional for login and SSO "Continue" page

    We are in Denmark, but our official company language is English and we would like to enforce that settings.

    Hi there,
    thanks for bringing this up!

    Box login page respects one’s browser preferred language so changing your browser preferred language to English should solve the problem.

    As for the SSO “Continue” page, I would recommend you contact your SSO provider and check if there’s a way to always show it in English.

    Thank you!

  5. Usage Logs - Include WebDAV Login Actions

    We currently don't see WebDAV login activities in the Usage Report. We want to see the log for WebDAV failure logins for security reasons.

    This is a resource-intensive request which is not on our short-term roadmap. We will update you if anything changes.

  6. Ability to sync from Favorites menu

    You can't sync a folder from your Favorites section. But if it's already synched you can unsync it.

  7. Make folder/file description visible again under the File/Folder name vs new details pane

    Description of file/folder has been moved to the details pane on the right side. My customer is seeing this as a regression and not as user friendly as before and would like to see description to come back under folder/file name (like in old UI) as opposed to the Details pane in New UI

  9. Ability to register any email alias which by API

    Currently, we have to register subdomains to their Box instance before they register email alias by API, but it's troublesome. It's OK to register email alias by GUI.

    This is not a priority at the moment given our roadmap commitments. We will reconsider with additional demand.

    Would you provide additional detail? The request looks like a mix of a few different concepts. Seems unlikely we will have an API that returns everything as asked.

    Can you potentially break these down? Seems the get subfolders request could be considered.

  11. Expose Favorites in Box Drive

    Favorites are becoming more and more popular now that they're better exposed (in the left rail) in the new Web App.

    As such, users expect to access their Favorites list regardless of which endpoint they're using - webapp (supported), mobile (supported), or desktop (not supported via Sync or Box for Desktop).

    REQUEST: Add a 'Favorites' view to Box for Desktop content (somehow) that allows the user to view only their Favorites (files + folders) just like they do in the webapp.

  12. Add "additional_details" to events endpoint for MOVE, COPY, RENAME events

    Presently, security & events reports run from the admin console include "change details" for these events - essentially, what the prior state was before the event occurred. The events endpoint does not include these details.

    Request to add this to the additional_details of an event as it's reported through the admin events stream for the MOVE, COPY, and RENAME events.

    If RENAME, show previous name of the folder
    If MOVE/COPY, show previous parent of the folder

  13. Disable ability to use a secondary password

    We'd like the ability to disable the use of a secondary password at both the account level and user level.

    Main risk for us is that users can map a shared drive and use FTP with a secondary password - which would allow WU data outside of WU managed PCs all while bypassing SSO.

  14. True versioning with Office Integrations

    Our users are in Office online documents for several hours as they are working on legal documents. What this does is creates hundreds of versions of one document due to the auto-save feature and eliminates the benefits of versioning because the versions saved are not true versions.

    It makes it difficult to see what the previous changes were that the other user made. We need true versioning for forensic value for our legal documents.

  15. Would like the ability to restrict certain folders from Sync'ing

    For PCI content that is not suitable to be on multiple PCs, we'd like to restrict the ability for Owners and Editors to choose to Sync these folders.

    We will revisit this if there is additional demand. For now, it is not planned.

  17. Usage Logs - Allow Viewing in UI Beyond 1 Year Timeframe

    Currently, Usage Logs are only available in the Admin Console UI for 1 year, but 7 years via Admin Console export.

    REQUEST: Allow viewing Usage Logs in the UI for as long as they're able to be exported (i.e., 7 years).

    This is not planned for our current roadmap. We will let you know if anything changes.

  18. Usage Logs - Indefinite Timeframe for Retrieval (Extend Current 7 Year Limit)

    Currently Box Usage Logs are retained by Box for 7 years. Box customers can export up to 7 years worth of Usage Logs from the Box Admin Console.

    As a customer, I want that 7 year limit to be raised to 'indefinitely,' meaning we can pull Usage Logs for actions taken at any point in time, not just the past 7 years.

    REQUEST: Remove 7 year limit for Admin Console Usage Logs exports.

  19. Allow Customization for 'Email to Upload' Email Address

    Perhaps if the email address was tied to the actual instance like:

    TEST_As.gbtuzmz6o0d088go@company.box.com

    Then the Box server would have the ability to segregate all the addresses and we would not have issue of competition for addresses between companies that use Box. Thus be able to allow custom email addresses PER company. (i.e. allow us to modify address).
