SSO Required to have exemptions for Admin(s)
This actually makes a lot of sense as we have it for Device Trust, but we would like SSO Required WHILST exempting an admin or two. If the IdP is down, no one can get in and this would create a catastrophic business impact.
17 votesThis is not currently prioritized. We will reconsider with additional use cases and demand.

Expose EXIF Metadata in the Box Webapp when Media (Photo, etc.) is Uploaded via Box Mobile App
Currently we do not expose media EXIF metadata (location info, camera type, etc.) for files uploaded to Box using the standard Box mobile apps (we do for media uploaded through Capture though).
This request is to provide a similar experience like we've already implemented with Capture.
7 votesThis feature is not planned for 2019.

Templates - Restrict Templates to Specific Users/Groups and/or Folder Structures
Metadata templates are currently global across an entire EID. This does not scale well for large organizations with 50,000, 100,000 or more than 200,000 users.
This request is to add 'scope' parameters to Metadata Templates such that a specific template can be restricted to...
1. A specific set of users
2. A specific set of Groups
3. A specific Folder structure111 votesThis is still on our roadmap and is under development.

Logging in with Google Account on Android
Once you allow Box to login using your Google Account credentials on your computer, you should be able to login using those same Google Account credentials using 'Company credentials' at the login screen on your Android mobile device. This currently is not the case, but users are able to do this on their iPhones.
2 votesThis is not currently planned. We will revisit this with additional use case data and customer requests.

Request to expose "ip_address" parameter through User Events endpoint as with Admin Events
ip_address parameter is exposed for events reported by the admin events endpoint. Please expose the same info for user events.
0 votesThis type of information should ideally be getting pulled from the enterprise events API. The User Events API is analogous to the updates feed in the Web App.
More detailed logging about how users are accessing content (e.g. IP address or service) is meant to be pulled from the Enterprise Events API as that’s a centralized location across the enterprise for auditing.

Add additional collaborator role between "Editor" and "Viewer Uploader" that allows a user to delete
The ability for a Viewer Uploader to also delete content
5 votesThanks for the suggestion! Based on the current information provided, we don’t currently have a feature like this planned.
We’d love to hear additional use case context from interested users, however, in why the need exists to have Viewer Uploaders be able to ‘delete’ without simply raising them to ‘Editor’ level. Any additional information would be very helpful.

Re-associate accounts when deleted user with same email re-joins enterprise
We need the ability to re-associate accounts when deleted user with the same email address joins (re-joins) our enterprise.
We have many scenarios where contractors become employees or employees are re-hired. We would like these transitions to be seamless from a Box perspective.
0 votesThank you for your suggestion! The best way to temporarily disable user accounts is to change the user status to inactive.

Add Item Owner to content-related events
Currently the API events do not contain the item owner for content-related activities (download, preview, etc.). Finding the owner of an item associated with an event requires subsequent API calls to inspect the object (file/folder).

Sorting: Fix the Incorrect Numerical Sort Order
The webapp currently handles number sorting in an odd (non-standard) way.
For example:
--For three file names beginning with: 1, 2, and 12
--The webapp would sort these as: 1, 12, 2
Which clearly isn't in the correct numerical order.Windows (and Finder) sort these correctly as: 1, 2, 12.
58 votesThis is the natural behavior for lexicographic sorting which treats everything as a string. We are unlikely to change this behavior in the near- or mid-term.

Bookmarked items do not sync and are not visible in the Sync client
We use Box bookmarks to avoid content duplication. Since we also use Sync, it is a confusing end-user experience

We do not allow users to reinstate retention periods since it would create a lot of confusion around what happened between the times the policy was active.
