Make source.parent.name to include all of path
source.parent.name show just folder name.
For example, if the collaborator folder is A and it lcates “All files/A”. the customer get api.box.com/2.0/events?streamtype=adminlo..,
source/parent/name just show A. This behavior make the user not to find the folder easily.
It should be shown “All files/A”2 votes -
Support for Collections in Content Explorer & Content Picker
Some of our use cases revolve around searching for specific metadata field or date range.
If UI Elements were able to be initialized with a collection, this would allow us to pass in a specific collection of files and display them easily even though those files may live in disparate folders.

Pull list of all collaborators with a certain user_type at a folder level
Currently, you can only search by user_type at the enterprise level as documented here: https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-all-users-in-an-enterprise
It would be helpful to be able to do this at a folder level as well.

Surface either EID or user_type when requesting collaboration object
Currently, requesting a collaborationobject does not surface either EID or usertype. (as seen in https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-collabs)
2 votesThis request is not currently on our roadmap but we’ll update this request if that changes. In the mean time, you can use a subsequent request to get the user information and specify the enterprise in the `fields` query string parameter.

API that facilitates multiple folders creation
At present, we have the capability to create individual folders from salesforce. Is it possible for Box to offer us an API that facilitates multiple folders creation in one transaction?

Can Box provide us an API which allows us to clone a folder along with its sub folders?
We have a predefined folder structure as a template, and we'd like to create new folders following this template's hierarchy. As Salesforce imposes limits on external system callouts, if the Box team could offer an API for this purpose, it would enable us to accomplish this task

Box Embed - prevent users from navigating outside the assigned folder
If a user is assigned to the following folders e.g. All Files > Cases > Case 1.
Currently, Box Embed Breadcrumbs allow users to navigate all the way up to the All Files.
We want the users to only be able to navigate only within Case 1 folder and not explore outside Case 1. This is useful to prevent users placing content outside Case 1 when embedded inside a case management application e.g. Appian, Salesforce, etc.

Box Legal Hold Export API
The current Box Legal Hold Exports function becomes difficult to manage at scale. The export process itself generates "batch" zip files that need to be manually downloaded via the user interface. Because the zip files are limited to 5,000 files or aprox 16 GB, I have one user to export who has over 500 "batch" zip files to download. The API does not support directly downloading these batch files. A way to bulk download or programmatically download these batch files is essential when exporting a very large (either in pure storage size or in number of files) user hold.

Provide a Datastore to store Developer App Variables and Configuration
Following the same pattern as Slack's Platform 2.0 Datastore support:
https://api.slack.com/automation/datastoresThis would remove one barrier to entry for managing app-specific data for Developers.

Automatically enable the Dev Console in a new Developer Sandbox
When creating a new Developer Sandbox at https://app.box.com/master/sandboxes, it would be helpful to see the "Dev Console" button at the bottom left of the Box dashboard when logging in as the Primary Admin of the sandbox. You can access the Dev Console by navigating directly to https://app.box.com/developers/console, or by clicking a button in the invitation email, but if that button is overlooked, it can be confusing to figure out how to navigate there.

Extend Developer Token for Apps that Integrate with Box.com, the Current Toke has a Limit 2 Months
Please add a new feature that allows us to change the expiration date of the Developer Token for apps that integrate with Box.com.
We are currently using Splunk to collect logs from Box.com, but the token expires every 60 days, which is a ridicules short amount of time, and there is no option to extent it to a 365 days or 6 months, if we like.
Please add this option, it is a pain to have to renew the token every 60 days. I have projects and other things that I need to work on, I should have to be…

Rollup secret for OAuth2 with client credentials.
Please provide a way to update client_secret without any custom app service impact.
With the current interface, issuing a new secret invalidates the previous one.
Periodic updating of secret is a security best practice, but this is not possible with client credentials.1 vote -
Allow more than 10 redirect URIs in app configuration
Our app sits on top of regionally distributed infrastructure, supporting multi-tenancy, and we need to be able to configure more than the maximum of 10 redirect URIs that is currently allowed. It would be nice if we could configure as many as needed.

Ability to extend API to query all collections
Hello dear Box Developers / Product Managers,
i'm Leon from CI HUB (ci-hub.com). A box Customer (Nina Stenzler) also uses the box CI HUB Integraiton and wondered why she can't view her box collections there. I was so sad that we cannot query them via your API (currently only favorites). Could you please extend your API here, so we can query all collections? That would be soooo nice for us and our customers :)
This is the corresponding Endpoint which needs to be extended: https://developer.box.com/reference/get-collections/

Increase the maximum message size in Update task API to more than 250 chars
Calls to the Box Task API with a message size greater than 255 chars throw an error a statusCode 500 error.
The relatively small maximum for message size limits the utility of the API and is not in line with the Box UI that allows a very large message to be input.
API Call details:
url: https://api.box.com/2.0/tasks/task_id
method: PUT
data: "{message: <greater than 255 characters>"}1 vote
