  1. Adapt Annotations to achieve Accessibility guidelines

    Box View does not conformance with W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, version 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) at conformance levels A and AA - specifically, annotations can only be viewed around mouseover. This is a blocker for us as we work with public universities who have to meet those guidelines.

  6. 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-collaborations

    However, 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.

  8. Source Type and Source Id Filters for Events Stream API

    In order to filter events for specific files in a scalable way, you need to persist the data to a 3rd-party data store. If you're able to filter by specific files/folders by id, you can access the full history of a given file and create a view based on those results which is extremely common in many content platforms.

  9. Add email information to COLLABORATION_INVITE event

    "COLLABORATIONINVITE" event should include "user email" information.
    We understand "user
    id" is unique attribute within Box to specify the user and user.id
    is included with "COLLABORATION_INVITE" attribute.
    It would be better if this also captured user email information.

  10. Watermarked PDFs currently output at large sizes when embedded

    Embedding watermarked PDFs currently come out at larger sizes than when embedding regular PDFs from Box. Would be nice for the user to be able to configure it the size it outputs at.

  11. Enablement Governance APIs for free developer accounts

    Currently, governance APIs are not enabled in the free developer accounts. This removes the ability to perform local unit testing and developers must perform unit testing in another environment. Since accounts are developer sandboxes, there is less risk in testing with pseudo-permanent APIs such as Retention Policies.

  12. Box Platform Performance in EMEA suffering

    We'remer using Box to replace existing ECM system. Transaction, after code optimisation takes 11 seconds when using caches and 20+ when no caches are used. Due to the time taken to perform transaction that future use cases are under threat and the performance volumes required cannot be met with current performance metrics.

  16. 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.

  17. 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)

  18. 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.

    not planned  ·  kyagen responded

    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?

  20. GET invite rejection event

    There is collaboration invite event (COLLABORATION_ACCEPT), but we want to GET rejection invite event as well.
