  2. Admin creates an order for the items in a certain folder and when that folder is shared it stays in that order!

    When an admin (such as myself) creates an order for the items in a certain folder, and then that folder is shared, it should stay in that order! I have been coming into serious issues with this situation and I really would like box to be able to fix the glitch. It is very frustrating and I have called and emailed numerous amounts of times complaining about it and no one has done anything. For example, I was in my own account and had 3 things in one folder labeled Promo, Part 1, and Part 2. It was in the…

  3. Add parameter to Activity report to search box for more than 1 year

    Currently if you want to look at 5 years of data, you would have to set-up and run the activity report 5 times. Instead of running the report for each time frames, set the date range for the specified time then have the report engine look at the parameter to execute the 5 reports in the time-frame corresponding to each year and label files to indicate time-frames. This way BOX controls resources and the admin would not have to do this a multitude of time to get the report data.

  4. adding seats emails the Admin for approval.

    We need an approval action for when a co-admin tries to add more seats. Or the ability to turn off that ability while still letting them edit users.

  5. A way to obtain reporting on how long a file was previewed for in order to gain insights on interactions.

    A way to obtain reporting on how long a file was previewed for? Within the admin consol, I can see reporting for specific events (i.e. Preview, Downloaded, Created, etc...); Optionality to see how long a file was previewed for once it was opened can provide insights into the interactions with files/folders.

  6. Ability to differentiate who can change file level classifications vs folder level

    Ability to differentiate who can change file level classifications vs folder level (ie, admins can set classifications at the folder level, managed users can change it at the file level)

  7. Clarify language on daily digest email setting

    The 'send daily digest activity emails to the admin' setting sends these emails to BOTH the primary admin and the co-admins of the enterprise. The wording on the tooltip of this feature should be updated to reflect this. It currently contains singular language, which is misleading as the email is sent to multiple people.

  8. Ability to log download activity from download link by someone.

    If you get download link within 15 minutes after creating, you can download it from download link. However, we don't log it in User Activity at all. We would like to log it in Admin Report.

  9. Confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity

    When users copy (Ctrl+C) files on Box Drive, and then paste (Ctrl+V) the files on their desktops, it is almost doing the same thing as "Downloading" or "Copying."
    However, neither the above are recorded in User Activity.
    We would like to be able to confirm the downloading and copying files in User Activity.

  13. Report on which users were de-provisioned from the Active Directory when SSO is enabled.

    We would like to be able to automatically mark a user on Box as inactive. Also, would like to see a report on which users were de-provisioned from the Active Directory when SSO is enabled.

    One example would be the below:

    I'll give you an example - we have integrated our AD with Adobe, so that when a user is disabled in AD, their Adobe product licenses are also automatically removed and therefore available to use for the new users. We add users to security groups in AD to assign the licenses. When the Adobe connector pulls the user data…

  14. Ability to restrict fonts based on OS across all platforms

    Wants a setting to restrict the usage of characters that are restricted in the OS. for example, Box webapp allows more characters that Windows OS allows. This result in inconsistency when using Box Drive, what appears in Box Drive and what actually exists in Webapp.

  15. Ability to block users from downloading files on computer so as to protect proprietary information.

    We want users to be able to ONLY download files on box app on ipad (which has ability to not share). but doing so- currently it provides a download option on box.com also which a user can go to any external computer and log in and download files which is a violation for using proprietary files. So Admin an option to restrict user access to download files only on box app.

  16. Automate email address for box folders

    Our system automatically creates a box folders for each opportunity. In order to create an email for the folder we have to manually go into setting and create the email.

    Can we have an option in the admin console to automate this?

    We would like it if in reporting, we could get some more information when a shared link has been modified. As in, when it changes from “Item Share Updated” to actual details about what happened to the shared link. The verbiage could mean a number of things, and it makes it unclear to the admin what happened. A few of the things that this can mean are: Access type changed to people with the link, access type changed to people in your company, access type changed to invited people only.

    Use case:
    When security requests reports on links set to…

  18. See all current Box downloads in Admin Console

    I'd like to see a page in the Admin Console that shows all of the Box download files, like for Box Drive and Box Edit, with their current version numbers.

    Please start including the version number in the download files so you can know what version you are downloaded without having to install first.

  19. Group creation next or finished button

    When creating groups, I need to click back on groups to create a new group. When just starting with Box I had to create over 50 new groups and it would have made the job easier having a pop-up or a button asking if I want to create an additional group, or am I finished.

  20. Shared links control for primary admin

    Create a primary admin only setting that will delete all shared links for an entire enterprise. Trying to enforce an expiration date for all shared links in the enterprise and all the current solutions are not scalable and are very time consuming.
