I want to be able to have the thumbnail urls returned in the metadata search results.
When doing a metadata search, returning the thumbnail url (or the representation template url) with each entry in the results will make it so that multiple API calls to get the thumbnail url for each entry after the search is not required.

Box UI Content Explorer and Content Picker: Support Download ZIP Natively through top-level Element options
Box's REST API now supports ZIP downloads via the external API in addition to the internal managed web app. It has been a common ask to provide native support for this endpoint in the Box UI Elements - Content Explorer & Content Picker UI Elements through exposing the feature as a top-level option/property when rendering the UI Elements.

Set enterprise settings via api
We have an open risk item on the Box platform due to lack of controls on change management.
Specifically:
Box console settings must be manually performed across dev, test and production environments.
Lack of automated mechanisms to maintain consistency with the settings across the environments may allow weaknesses in lower environments (dev/test) to be exploited to exfiltrate data or modify data or inconsistencies between functionality tested in lower environments and what is configured in prod.
We would like the ability to be able to configure the settings via API so we can build environment management into out CICD pipeline. We…10 votes -
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.

Single API call to delete user and transfer folders for that user
Before deleting a user from box system we can transfer the root folder from one user account to
another.
Once the root folder is transferred only then delete API must be triggered.
So in all, the delete operation will have to call two API one to transfer and another to delete.But as the transfer API call will return synchronously.
For users with a large number of files and folders, this means the call could take minutes or hours to return.So the delete operation will be in pending state until we receive the transfer API response.

At this point we have no plans to create powershell specific SDK. However, the Box Command Line utility can be called from within powershell which may be of help. https://developer.box.com/guides/tooling/sdks/cli/
Furthermore there is some good (if a bit dated) information on how to use the Windows SDK from within Powershell here: https://community.box.com/t5/Platform-and-Development-Forum/Automating-box-processes-using-powershell-and-the-box-windows/m-p/50342

Remove 100 "to_user_ids" limit of WebhookV1.
With webhook V1, we have the upper bound of 100 users in "touserids" field for each notification, so when a webhook has too many recipients (that is, more than 100 users are to be set in "touserids" field), we send multiple webhook notification for a single event so "touserids" is kept within 100 users for each notification.
For e.g. if an upload event was to trigger notification to 1000 recipients, we send 10 webhook notifications to the notification url with 100 users embedded in "touserids" field of each notification.
This causes duplicate…

Allow http://127.0.0.1 as redirect_url in published box apps
It is currently disallowed to use redirect_urls of the form http://127.0.0.1 in published apps.
These give the error "insecureredirecturi".
These are allowed in unpublished apps.
Having a redirect to 127.0.0.1 is very useful for native apps which run on the users computer (eg rclone https://rclone.org ).
It is pretty much impossible to do https to 127.0.0.1 - you can't get a valid certificate for it. See this link for details: https://letsencrypt.org/docs/certificates-for-localhost/ - and also for reasons why using http://127.0.0.1 is treated as secure by browsers.
I'll describe how rclone, a native CLI app works. Rclone runs on the…

macOS SDK support
It would be great to see full macOS support in the Box SDK.
I realize that the name of the Apple-flavored SDK is "box-ios-sdk", but "osx" is listed as one of the supported platforms. It compiles and links just fine, but the code path bails on OAuth sign in support.
It looks like most of the SDK would work fine for API calls post authentication, so I think it's mainly a matter of wiring up browser-based sign-in like Dropbox does for their SDK: https://github.com/dropbox/SwiftyDropbox. This seems to be confirmed by a response from @sujaygarlanka in a submitted GitHub issue: …
