Pass Basic Auth (Authorization Header) to Client Callback URL & Preliminary Callback URL when Both are Present
Using an API-based web app integration, from the "More" menu in the web app, if developer requires basic auth to complete the request, authorization header is only passed to the Preliminary Callback URL and never the Client Callback URL - even if Client Callback is the only URL present.
Expected Behavior:
Allowing the developer to choose whether basic auth is required would imply that we would always pass the Authorization header with our requests so they can validate.0 votes -

Good feedback, although, due to other priorities we will likely not be getting to this anytime soon.

Periodic replication of Sandbox environment with Production settings/folder structure
As we become more complex with usage of Box, we maintain Sandbox environments and are using it to test Governance Policies, integrations, and more.
Other SaaS providers (e.g., Workday) will push a replication of Configuration Settings (with an option for the customer to not replicate) from the Production to Sandbox environment. This helps keep the two in sync.
It would also be enormously beneficial if the folder structure and dummy users (not content) could be replicated into the sandbox environment for a better sense of how changes will affect Production.
11 votesThis is currently on our roadmap, however we appreciate the value of this request and will update this ticket if there are material developments to this end.

Thumbnails should be able to be requested in a batch.
You should be able to download all thumbnails for the items within a folder.
1 voteGreat suggestion – we don’t have any plans to do this anytime soon, however.

Request to Add Overwrite/Version Functionality to File Copy Operations via API
Currently the only way to add a version to a file is to download it and upload the new version with the If-Match header.
We are archiving files when a new file version is uploaded to a "main" folder, and to do that we have to download the existing version to our server and then generate a separate request to upload the file.
Ideally, we would be able to combine the requests into one - a COPY (https://box-content.readme.io/reference#copy-a-file) that can overwrite an existing file in the destination folder if the appropriate etag is supplied during the copy request.
5 votesThis is not something we will build due to other roadmap commitments.
Alternatively, you could always upload latest version to “backup folder,” delete file from “current version” folder, then copy “backup folder” version to “current version” folder.
This will get you 100% version history in backup folder and avoid the need to download & upload the file a second time.
