  1. 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>

  2. Better error message for device limits

    If there is a device limit set, the error message when you try logging in from another device should read something similar to: You have reached the max number of devices

  4. Force Embed Video quality to 1080p

    Videos hosted through embed widgets links start in "Auto" video quality as default.

  8. Single File Collaboration - Preview Permission

    The current implementation of Single File Collaboration is lacking the Preview permission.

    As organizations transition to the single file model, the functionality should align to the folder permission model as closely as possible to maintain ease of use and consistency within the application.

    The current behavior is to set the permission to Editor and require the user to navigate to multiple windows to downgrade rights to Viewer. The Viewer role still allows content to be downloaded to a local machine.

    We request Preview rights so that functionality like Watermarking can still be leveraged and to minimize data spillage.

  9. Confirm click-and-drag Move for folders

  10. User-Level 'History/Activity Manager' - View Prior Actions with Option to Undo

    Users often perform a variety of actions in their account - renaming files, moving files, copying files, etc.

    There's always a success/failure banner (with an 'undo' button) for these larger actions (like move/copy), but that banner is dismissed pretty quickly

    There are scenarios, however, where a user performs an action (especially a somewhat destructive action - like accidentally moving a bunch of files) and they need to undo it AFTER the 'undo?' banner disappears.

    REQUEST: Add an 'Activity Manager' or 'History Manager' at the account level that allows a user to view their actions and undo applicable ones. For example,…

    Thank you for this request! I can appreciate this use case. This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

  11. 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).

  12. Deleted accounts: Retrieve and restore any previous collaboration relationships

    Allow for a Point in Time recovery.

    We inadvertently de-provisioned a group of users and then re-provisioned them. Upon re-provisioning, we want Box to be able to restore the user collaboration points to how they existed prior.

    We intend Box Notes to be for casual documents. Meeting notes, project plans, etc.

    It’s not intended for flyers, fancy collateral, perfectly formatted PDFs. For those, we still recommend a program like Microsoft Word.

    We do not plan to add these types of things to Box Notes.

  14. Groups visibility for end users

    Allow users to see which groups they are a part of and who is in them. Potential workaround provided here: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-How-To-Forum/Box-Groups-Visibility-for-Users/m-p/26075/highlight/true#M2052

    If some businesses want this restricted, this could be an Enterprise checkbox feature?

    Thank you for the submission! This is not planned.

    We don’t see enough customer demand for this yet, and supporting every additional content type takes a significant amount of engineering time and effort.

    We suggest using the Open With Preview framework which should give third-parties (the company in this case) the ability to integrate a viewer for these file types as part of Preview.

    Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We will reconsider with additional use cases.

  20. Enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0

    We use an in-house IdP. This IdP leverages OAuth2 OpenID. It does not use SAML 2.0

    Therefore we need Box to have the capability to enable SSO through OAuth2 and not only SAML 2.0
