  1. Share Link Always Enabled

    The Share link should always be enabled or give us the option to have it always on. We do not use the collaborate function of Box but always use the "share link" function. To now add a step for us to use that function is not thinking of your current users uses.

  2. Version Number Included on Download

    When downloading any document, the "version number" should be automatically included in the file name to avoid confusion.

  3. clearer highlighting needed when selecting a file on webapp

    This is a request on how to display/express "Selected file(s)".
    In the current specification, selected files glow blue(List View) or is surrounded by a blue border(Grid View).
    There were opinions from some users that these expression is hard to see and difficult to distinguish.

    Opportunities to utilize Box are increasing and they are being used in various places, by various people.

    For use in extremely bright/dark places, and for people with sight problems, please improve the way of expression.

  4. Allow the option to transfer collaboration permissions when deleting a user.

    Allow the option to transfer collaboration permissions when deleting a user. Currently, when deleting a user, it only gives us the option to transfer ownership of files and folders they own. But if a user were to undergo a name change, we would have to manually give their new Box account the same collaborative permissions as their old Box account (Co-owner, Editor, Viewer Uploader, Previewer Uploader, Viewer, Previewer, Uploader).

    When deleting their Box account, Co-owner, Editor, Viewer Uploader, Previewer Uploader, Viewer, Previewer, and Uploader permissions currently do not transfer over.

  5. Add User Activity Reporting for Folder Settings Changes

    Right now, there is no way to tell who is enabling or disabling notification settings by accident (rather than managing their own user level notifications).

  6. Password Resets by Administrator

    This weekend, our organization had an internet outage that stopped email from delivering for four days. I had a user whose password expired and due to the password reset process being wholly dependent on email, the user was unable to work in Box, which is where all their files are, so they couldn't work. I setup a call back and was told that the process needed email in order to manually reset the user's password.

    There needs to be a way where administrators can reset a user's password in the admin console. There are times when email is not a…

  10. Allow user to search or filter within Feed for users, etc

    Be able to filter for a specific user or content in Feed. If I'm in Feed and know a co-worker updated a file in the last day or so I want to be able to specify that user (or maybe other search criteria) and just filter on that user. Or, when a user feed is there, be able to click on that user to see all her activity (right now it pulls up a profile).

  11. Make DocuSign Required Envelope Fields show in the Box Integration

    We currently have fields that are required on every envelope for our DocuSign account (Envelope Custom Fields). These fields are not available to enter data (in our case, it is a pull down list) in the Box Integration. Therefore, envelopes created through the Box integration do not have these fields.

    We can get the fields on the envelope via applying a template that includes the fields. However, we would like to see the fields without using a template.

  12. Ability to block external invitations for collaboration

    We don't want users accepting any external invites to external company shares but we want them to be able to share folders with any company. Basically, we only ever want to be the folder owner.

    We have a rule that only we can create the folders and share them out but this sometimes is accidentally overlooked. In addition, Box does not have an option to "block outside collaborator invitations" only an option to completely turn off inbound/outbound sharing or white list domains.

  15. Enhance API for group membership search

    Current implementation of user group membership search is very inefficient.
    both
    api.box.com/2.0/groups/GROUPID/memberships
    and
    api.box.com/2.0/users/USER
    ID/memberships

    Right now we have to search for membershipId for given groupId and userId .
    Our customers have thousands of groups and users.

    Ideally we should fetch membership info like
    GET api.box.com/2.0/group_memberships?groupId=<id>&userId=<id>
