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.

Return collaborated files (single file collab SFC) under a folder via API
Currently, there are two API calls surrounding getting a list of collaborations:
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#view-a-folders-collaborations
https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference#get-file-collaborationsHowever, say a collaborated file exists under a non-collaborated/private folder. Now say the folder is large. It would be less easy to get a list of collaborated files under this folder without iterating through every single file.

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.

Disclose Box service host names via API
Open up Box host names via API so that a customer's proxy server can automatically fetch our end points and digest it in to their solution.
There is a partial list available on our community page but it is not complete and difficult to fetch programatically.6 votesThank you once again for the feedback. We have evaluated the feedback but don’t think will have anything meaningful to share in the next couple of quarters.
Meanwhile, we will continue to keep our ear to the ground for additional feedback, and let you know if anything changes on our side.

You cannot get trashed versions via the API or deleted trashed versions
While you can GET and permanently delete FILES & FOLDERS via the API by interacting with TRASH, you cannot do so for FILE VERSIONS, e.g. GET/DELETE

Expose the functionality for auto-deleting folders and files on a specific date via the API.
Currently, the web app has a file/folder setting in which a folder or file can be deleted on a specific date. We don't expose this service via the API.
We work with documents in packages (folders) and so when the documents expire and are deleted, we would also like the containing folder to be deleted as well. All of these packages are customer applications and so if not cleaned up then they will accumulate over time.
Right now, retention deals with files only, leaving behind the folders. The auto-delete on the folder is perfect for this purpose except that it…

iOS Preview SDK should provide listeners for events like the Content Preview UI kit.
The events for the JS Content Preview UI kit can be found here, https://developer.box.com/docs/file-types-events. It would be beneficial to have similar events to have emitters within the iOS preview SDK.

Make the digest header in the Commit Upload endpoint optional
Currently, Commit Upload endpoint requires passing a Digest header for the sha1 of the entire file.
Given that the integrity of each file part is already verified, consider making the Digest header in the Commit Upload endpoint optional

List and Grid support in the Content Explorer JavaScript Libraries
The java script libraries for content explorer do not appear to have an option to include toggle list/grid views which is available in the Box Drive experience.
4 votesGreat feedback – something we’ve discussed in the past and definitely want to do. Just not prioritized / planned on the roadmap currently.

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.
