  1. Box report progress bar or indicator

    We want to check the progress of a report being output.
    At the moment We can only see if it is in progress but it is not possible to see when the report will be output.

    It can take quite a while for the report to be output, but we don't want to be uncertain about when it will be completed.
    This is because we have to regularly check the output of the report, which is time-consuming.

    It would be nice to be able to see progress as a percentage.

    <出力しているレポートの進捗状況をパーセンテージで確認したい>

    出力中のレポートの進捗状況を確認したいです。
    現時点では、進行中かどうかを確認することはできますが、いつレポートが出力されるかを確認することはできません。

    レポートが出力されるまでにはかなりの時間がかかりますが、
    定期的にレポートの出力状況を確認しなければならず、手間がかかるため
    いつ完了するかわからない状態では困ります。

    進捗状況をパーセンテージで確認できると嬉しいです。

  2. Admin Console - Ability to sort by options in Metadata

    I'd love to see sort by options when using a drop down list for the option in Metadata. When you have a large subset of choices, it'd be great to see Alpha Ascending order/descending orders and potentially other filters.

  3. Operation history in box.com/folder/000000000/settings

    There isn't a way yet to see how and when the setting was changed. We're trying to know is who and when and how did the Collaboration and Privacy settings change on Admin Console User Activity reports.

  4. Include Path Collection in the result of Event API

    Event API does not include the path collection for updated files. Thus, to get the updated files, another File Info API should be called.
    This situation increases the number of API calls and causes the complexity of the client program and the performance issue.
    Could you include the path collection in Event API results?

  5. Customize Insights storage graph from PB into TB

    When Admin Insights STORAGE is below 1048TB the storage graph shows changes per 1 TB. Anyone deleting several TB's is quickly visible in the graph. However when over 1048TB, the graph's scale jumps to 0.01 PB, which decimals are way to large to spot large data deletions.(10TB steps !). Request to change STORAGE from PB back into TB's. The graph is a flat-line and unusable since the scale changed from TB into PB.

  6. Option to revert accidentally moved files/folders

    More often than not users accidentally move files/folders by mistake.

    Reverting is nothing but a complete and avoidable nightmare.

    The current process is horrendous. Running a report on moves only gives you info on WHO moved the folder and where it was ORIGINALLY. After finally searching for and locating the folder, the Admin Console gives you no options to move the folder. You instead have to granting yourself permission to the parent folder, navigating to your personal Box account and make the move manually. I hope I'm not crazy but this process is in no way intuitive or fun in…

  7. Box Reports User Details - Distinguish download to local disk vs. download using Box Drive

    Want a way to tell if the user downloaded it locally to their machine vs. just opening the doc via Box Drive/Office App/Box website. This feature would be extremely helpful to when a user is leaving the company and we want to know if they are “taking company docs”. Having “download” for simply opening and editing a doc is mis-leading. Would be super helpful to differentiate between the two.

  8. Ability to customize folder description on account deletion and content transfer process

    When the Enterprise Admin deletes an account and data is moved to another person, the destination folder's Description text needs to be adjustable. Instead of "If you have any questions" we do not want the users to reach out to the Enterprise Admin, but instead to raise an IT case.

  11. User activity report - files copied with 'save as' function

    Add a User Activity report File Management action to capture when a file has been saved as a copy with a different name (i.e. "Save as" from Box Edit).

  12. Include a Domains or Enterprise column in External Collaborations Report

    Currently, if you create an external collaborations report in the Admin Console you will have columns that include a user's email address and whether they are External. Ideally, for some use cases it is helpful to be able to organize this data by enterprise/domain so you can see what information/content is not only being shared with which users, but which enterprises as a whole at a more macro level

  13. Add Box User IDs to the Managed User Report

    It would be great to have the Box User IDs added into the Managed User Report. Currently, when we deprovision a large batch of accounts, we have to run a report in the Box CLI to grab the Box IDs and then add them to the Managed User Report.

    Adding the Box User IDs into the Managed User Report will help us simplify our deprovision process.

  15. Register multiple certificates in the certificate presence function of Device Trust.

    Currently, only one certificate can be registered in the certificate presence function of Device Trust. This makes it very inconvenient when the certificate expires. Please make it possible to register multiple certificates to eliminate the time when the function cannot be used.

  16. I want to make it so that access statistics for operations by administrators are not left behind (stealth).

    【Current Specifications】

    1. Log in to the target user as a proxy and access the site.
      → The operation by the administrator is recorded as the access statistics of the proxy-logged user.

    2. Access from the "Contents" function of the management console.
      → The operation by the administrator is recorded as the access statistics of the administrator.

    【background】

    When a user deviates from the organization's rules (service rules, security rules, etc.) in the use of Box, a case is envisioned in which the administrator wants to view or download files owned by the user concerned as evidence of the deviation.
    If access…

  17. Ability to prevent the admin passwords from expiring

    We have our copy machines scan documents directly into Box folders. However those processes periodically fail because Box currently has no ability to stop the Administrator password from expiring.

    Please allow an option in the Admin Console where you can select to have the Admin password not expire.

  19. Capture Device information in the User Activity Report

    We had a situation that ex-employee use Box Sync app using his personal laptop but Admin has no way to figure out whether he accessed them from corporate laptop or his personal laptop. The User Activity Report only shows ip address. It would be good to capture device name or OS version so Admin can double check what device this user is using when accessing synced files.
