Box CLI resend
The use case is we would like to resend/remind collaborators with invites of status "pending" using the Box CLI. Triggering new email notifications from Box.
Presently we have to list the collaborators pending > csv, delete the collaboration, then collaborate again. A single call would make this much more efficient.

box-ui-elements content-explorer needs real thumbnails
The Content Explorer element needs at least the option to use actual file thumbnails rather than the generic ones based on file type currently shown. Otherwise browsing large collections of images and videos is severely handicapped. The API appears to have a thumbnail/representation endpoint so hopefully this is not a big ask.
Other things that would really improve Content Explorer for our use case:
- list/grid toggle button
- ability to hide the modified date and owner (useless for our application which is a repository of read-only archived files uploaded by an uploader app)0 votes -
Provide read-only scope for user information
I'd like to provide our central identity management team a way to tell whether or not a given Box user has a > 0 byte usage before they delete the user's account (for example, as someone leaves our organization). I'd like to give them read-only API access to https://api.box.com/2.0/users, without giving them any additional access. Support tells me that this isn't currently possible. It'd be nice if it was--this could be useful for a number of other uses, too, such as reporting.

We don’t offer an API endpoint for these types of queries today, so it’s not possible to add.
When you create a user that already exists, you get a 409 error code returned – user already exists. Is this sufficient?

Option to select a folder_id other than 0 (the user's root folder) within the Move Owned Items API.
As a large company, we aim to fully automate the deprovisioning of users using Box Platform.
We would like an option within the Move Owned Items API (https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#move-folder-into-another-users-folder) to select a destination location other than 0 (all files).
The goal would be to automate this process and allow folders and files to be moved within an existing folder rather than at the root level.

Folder Level App Integration in Developer Console
Is there any plan to allow developers to give folder access to Web App integrations without having to request a special permission from Box?
In the current process, Developers can enable the context menu for folders to present integration features, but to do so they must contact Box first. "Send a request to Box for pre-approval to build a folder-level integration."
We would like the ability to add folder level integrations via the Developer Console without having to contact Box Support.
0 votesThanks for the feedback. We don’t have anything meaningful to share at the moment, but will let you know if and when that changes.

Add API for CORS Domains
With the introduction of the UI Elements, managing CORS domains has been really important for developers who create third party apps that are then used across many domains owned by their customers. This gets unwieldy to manage manually.

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

Add offline functionality to iOS SDK
Offline functionality is already available through the Box for iOS app but it's built on the app level.
Developers are interested in using the same logic used by Box instead of writing their own.
0 votesOur customers tend to have different requirements for an offline feature. We’ll monitor demand and re-evaluate.

Allow watermarking to reveal External ID, as opposed to randomly generated App User Email
This would connect the viewer to a legal obligation through the document experience.
