  2. Disposition Reporting Update - File Size and Scheduled Reports option

    Add File Size and Scheduled Report option for Disposition Reports in Admin Console. Allowing the Admin to monitor disposition activities based on their reporting cadence to ensure files/folders are deleted as expected without having to run the Folder/Files report and comparing against the options in that report.

  4. Allow Admins to Monitor for Sync Errors

    Currently if there are any sync errors in Box Drive the only way to identify them is for the user to notice the toast notification or click on the Box Drive systray icon. Relying on the end user to report errors is not reliable and almost caused us to lose data going back several years.

    The only way errors are logged is in the Box Drive log files but no one from Box or Box Support is willing to share how those are logged for admins to monitor.

    Box Drive needs to better log any errors encountered so admins can…

  5. Smart Card support for MFA

  6. Disable the collaboration expiration date set for an external user when the external user is changed to a managed user.

    External users who have been collaborated with an expiration date often become managed users.
    Currently, we need to re-collaborate or add them to a group, so we would like to see the expiration date changed so that the expiration date is invalidated when the user is changed to a managed user.

  7. grant access

    I have a parent folder with many multiple subfolders with additional subfolders. Is it possible to grant different levels of access (i.e. lower level such as Viewer access) despite giving Editor access to the parent folder? If that feature could be included, that would be fantastic. Thanks!

  8. When dragging files to your desktop from BOX it should be a default of COPY, instead the default is MOVE. Unfortunately when user MOVES the

    After upgrading to Monterey, Box Drive has made a significant change in behavior where dragging a file from Box Drive to the local filesystem moves the file, rather than the previous behavior of copying the file. It will still copy if you're dragging the file to removable media, but not the local Mac drive.

    Anyone know of a way to alter this behavior back to the previous?

    It causes three fairly significant issues.

    One, if someone needs a local copy of a file for travel, offline, whatever, now it's removed from Box and no one else can access it if…

  9. Customization of Main Screen

    There should be away that you do not have to view all of the files and folders that you have been to invited to collaborate on when you are in Box. Currently, there is only All Files which shows folders and documents that I can't move, organize, or hide because I don't own them. There should be an option to customize my view to just my files and folders. There could also be an option to view just collaboration files and folders. That way, All Files could remain as it is., but I would not have to see the clutter…

  11. Freeing up space with Box Sync

    I would like the ability to save the Box sync folder onto a different drive on my PC. Currently, it's on the C drive, but it fills up FAST, so it would be incredibly beneficial for me to save it to another drive on it.

    Barring that, I'd like the ability to free up space on my Box folder so that it's only on my machine when I need it.

  13. Shield Requests

    Currently Box sheild has the capability to Scan only newly updated/created files or only if the existing file is modified. In simple terms the scan happens only for the newly created version of the files and not any existing files before Box shield is being implemented.

    Feature request:

    1. We need to have the option of Scanning all the files at rest & transit in Box irrespective of when it was created/ modified, etc so that it can detect any malware on already available files as well.

    2. Currently Box only encrypts the file with a red banner on top if malware…

    When using the 'Attach from Box ' feature in Outlook. I always want to see most recent items because it makes it easy to attach a link for a file that I have just worked on. I have to change how files are sorted every time to Name to Date: Newest to Oldest.

  16. Support same user account (E-Mail) across multiple sandboxes

    We use multiple sandboxes for testing varying functionality across business units and this requires a new "functional" mail account to be setup for each (which is a time consuming process). We need to be able to use the same e-mail (user account) across all of our sandboxes.

    Box auto-disables managed user accounts that meet a set threshold of account inactivity. There should be a setting to specify a threshold for inactive users i.e. number of days since the last login.

  18. SSO Supersede Box PW Reset

    Currently, it is considered "expected behavior" for Box that when SSO is required (per Enterprise Settings), the Box Password Reset is to be enforced before users are able to login via SSO again. So the Box PW Reset supersedes SSO until that request is fulfilled. This is confusing logic and should be reconsidered. If SSO is required for all user's login attempts, users with Box Passwords should not be required to reset their Box Password before being able to login via SSO. They should still be able to login and just have an outstanding task or something of the sort.

  19. Notification pop up to be constrained to its bounding box

    The notification popup takes the entire width of the screen when it appears, stopping you from clicking the search box, this really needs to be constrained to the bounding box of the notification itself, rather than taking the entire width.

  20. Box Sign Checkbox to enable Granular and Specific Reporting for Box Sign

    In the Box Sign feature, we would like an option (possibly check Box) to determine what type of document is being sent for signature. E.g. Contract, HR Doc, Victim Statement.

    We would then like this information to be available in reporting. So we can report how many Contracts have been signed during this period, how many Victim Statements have been sign in this period etc.

    Thank you
