  2. Managed user

    We need the ability to purge user accounts from the "managed users" without deleting them, or "waiting room" of the "managed users".
    After inviting users with email addresses from the same domain to collaborate, they are automatically added to the "managed users" list when user accounts are created. If we do not want them to be the "managed users", we must delete their user accounts, as there is no action to purge them from the "managed users".

  5. Ability to Disable or Choose email Notification when Inviting Collaborators

    We would like to have the option to email or not email a collaborator when sharing a content in Box. Example use case is when cleaning up Box permissions (group vs individual) and the Admin needs to do that seamlessly without bombarding he whole organization with Box invites to files/folders hey already have access to. Specially required for Internal collaborators.
    Providing access permissions does not always require an invite given the way Box works, the internal user will simply see the content when they access their Box Drive or he portal.

  6. Make the administrative contact modifiable.

    The topmost administrative account is exposed in the account details for every user. Can you make this modifiable? We use separation of account privileges in our IT units, so each member has both a standard and a privileged account. Because my privileged account has those rights, it is listed in the contact information for our Box tenant. It sure would be nice to have it set to a monitored group email address...I'm not always in the office and an email could sit for quite a while if I'm on leave or ill.

  7. Lifting or pulling up the limitation of 100

    Currently, when the box admin wants to enable Box features like Sign, Canvas etc., to partical users and groups, the #s of users and groups are limited to 100.
    Could you consider lifting or pulling up the limitation ?
    I know that making groups is a solution when the box admin want to add more than 100 employees. It is bit taking time to makie groups, and want to make it more easier.
    I would like to know why 100 is set as a limitation.

  8. Update User Details Password Field

    In the Admin Console, under User Details --> Password. " No password created" will show for every user if SSO is enabled for the enterprise. The logic should check the user setting instead of the enterprise setting, to reflect accounts that may not be a part of an organization's external directory.

  10. Create Relay to Connect to Users Table

    The only way to view the number of user licenses consumed is to view the Insights in the Admin Console. Unless you look there, there's no visibility. When I approach my purchased license limit, I would like to build a Relay that can tap into the users table to monitor the number of licenses then alert me when that limit is approaching.

  11. Be able to default a sort method

    Currently you can change the sort method from alphabetical to updated date or size, but there's no way to change the default order from updated. Most of my files I prefer alphabetical so it's inconvenient to have to click it every time

  12. Make the SSO prompt editable - so clients are not as confused

    Our clients are confused by the Box SSO that says, "If you are not part of [Our Company], continue to log in with your Box.com account." They believe they ARE part of our company, so they often select the other option meant for our employees.

    Can you either change your SSO language so the left says Employees of [*** Company] and the right says [Clients of or 3rd Parties to *** Company]?

    The other option would be to make this language editable in the Admin Console.

  13. Allows Admins to block new users from being created using unverified email Domain

    Some organizations wish to have the ability to prevent any account from being created with an email address belonging to an email domain that is not listed in the Verified Domains list in the Box Admin Console. There should be a setting either in Security or Custom Setup that can be enabled so that all admins are unable to add these types of users. In large organizations that leverage automations and integrations via SSO and security groups to push users to Box, there should be a way to have more granular control on the users that are provisioned access based…

  14. Please Allow an Approval or Denial workflow for Auto Roll-in user creaiton

    Please allow for Admins to allow or deny auto roll-in requests.

    While I understand we can be notified of user creation and take action from there, it would be more beneficial for organization to approve or deny requests to roll in.

    At the very least, allow us the option to block the requests or have a custom message that directs the user to their helpdesk or IT to get the account permissions. This would seriously help us be more secure while avoiding contract violations.

  15. GeoIP Conditional Access

    I'd like to see Box adding GeoIP filtering so that specified countries cannot access.
    This is a standard we do through Office 365 where we don't even allow login attempts for most countries.

    We also have an exceptions list via IP address for safety to allow our office IP(s) to also access in addition to GeoIP filtering.

  16. Limit the amount of data a user can download to prevent data theft by employees.

    Limit accidental or intentional bulk downloads.

    An ex-employee intentionally or accidentally connected his Network Attached Storage device to his Box account, and it downloaded big chunks of our Box data. We want to prevent very large amounts of data (client work and IP) from being downloaded by users, for example, within a logged-in session, within a set timeframe or by the size of the folder (ie. large folders over a specific size containing folders).

    This could be set per user with an enterprise-level default eg. 5GB. If someone tries to bulk download, the admin is altered. Users can request that…

  17. Prohibit the creation of free accounts

    I want to prohibit the use of SSO without SSO because I cannot use SSO due to circumstances.
    We are aware of the automatic registration function, but due to budget constraints, we would like to create accounts based on internal requests for creation.

  18. Update Managed User email addresses at scale with a support ticket

    This happens all the time when companies change their name and email domain, and is very easy to do on platforms like Zoom, where they give us a .CSV with our current list of Managed Users that we update with new emails for the Managed Users.

    When changing emails for Managed Users in bulk, give us the option to submit an Excel list with old emails and new emails to Support, and have support handle everything on the backend so that those users can now login with the new emails.

  19. Ability to set Default Collaboration Role to None

    Ability to set Default Collaboration Role to None:

    Provide users to have ability to Choose the permissions from dropdown” where users have to select the level of permission for the collaborators. If the users do not choose any permission, then files cannot be shared should pop a message provide permissions.

  20. More SSO Granularity

    It would be great if we could have more granularity with SSO rules instead of just applying them universally. Having something like an SSO admin account that can log in with credentials and set SSO to test mode when an identity provider outage happens would be ideal. Right now the only option to recover login access when an identity provider outage occurs is to submit a support ticket and hope for a timely response.
