  1. Event Stream notification for Admin Console changes

    We need to monitor security of our environment and want to be able to identify and flag, via the Event Stream, when any Admin Console setting is changed.

    This is available via the UI in User Reports, but is not in the Event Stream.

    This is especially important for enterprises who rely on SIEM tools like Splunk and QRadar to alert to unauthorized actions.

  4. Allow Admins to Recover Deleted Users Directly

    Occasionally, Admins can delete a user (or large group of users) for one reason or another (license re-allocation, deleting users based off of perceived inactivity, etc.). Sometimes these users need to be recovered quickly to give users access to their Box account once again if this was done by mistake. The ultimate goal would be to enable Admins who have the ability to manage users to recover deleted accounts on their own (whether through somewhere in the admin console and/or via the CLI or API) so that product support doesn't need to do so through a support ticket as a…

  5. Alerts when large amounts of data are being moved

    We would like the option to receive alerts if someone is attempting to move or delete a large amount of data from it's original location in Box. This way we can keep users from mistakenly moving large folders and losing them.

  8. 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.

  10. Even if a group is set as Admins only, Admin wants to invite the group by selecting the folder and click share button.

    In the group settings, if Permission Settings is set to Admins Only, Admin can only add this group to collaborate on content from within the admin console. (Invite from share button does not allow Admin to select that group.)

    Even if a group is set as Admins only, Admin want to invite it by selecting the folder and specifying the group from the share button.

  11. Add a function to extract the collaboration list for each specific folder of box by "user (editor etc.)"

    I want you to add a function to extract the collaboration list for each specific folder of BOX by "user (editor etc.)"

    Background:
    Currently, it is necessary to output the report (collaboration) by the administrator,
    but I want to output it by a user without administrator authority, not by the administrator each time.
    Not one department or company that manages all folders,

    Each small folder has a co-owner, and the co-owner grants access rights and strips them.
    Therefore, it is necessary to deal with the intrusion of many people such as personnel changes of those who have access rights to…

  12. Enable a "notes" field for each Managed User and External User in the Admin Console.

    Enable a "notes" field for each Managed User and External User in the Admin Console.

    Sometime special permissions are given and a place to record it would be convenient.

  13. 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.

  14. Ability to customize file and folder report

    File & folder report execution customization has to be there So that we can run the report only for a particular or a list of the user account. Rather than running for a whole domain, Which really makes no sense on having huge reporting dumps.

  16. Opening the "Reports" menu, "Create Report" appears by default.

    When we open a "report" from the admin console, we will now see "Report Status" board.
    Before the "Report Status" board was created, "Report Create" was the first thing that was displayed.

    The main purpose of opening the "report" page is to create a report.
    The Report Status is a page to check when something happens, so it is not the main recognition.

    At the moment we have to click on the "Create Report" tab whenever we want to create a report.
    Next we will want to click on the Export button for any report.

    We hope to eliminate this…

  17. Insights map uses wrong geoip database

    We have noticed that the map displayed on the insights page does not use the same information the report attached to the map does. On the map we see connections to countries that are not in the report.

    This massively reduces the value of the map and has raised multiple security alerts, as we see connections from countries on our "forbidden list" that we cannot explain with the report.

    Lack of correct information is removing trust in the overall solution in our security department. This should be fixed soon.

  18. Default Collaboration Role, Allow all Seven options at Admin level that are available to users

    Please allow the ability to set Default Collaboration Role in Admin console to any of the seven options that are currently available at the user level.

    Currently the only options are Editor or Viewer. Thats not enough flexibility for Box Admins.

  19. Run report to demonstrates permanent deletion of files

    I really need the ability to run a report that demonstrates that my files have been permanently deleted.

    Given requirements in the various data privacy laws across the world, our company may be required to delete data or files at any time, and provide proof of deletion. However, once something is deleted from our Box account, it sits in Trash for 30 days before being permanently purged. (And, if I understand correctly, the data may be recoverable for 14 days after that?)
