Consolidate User and Event Log Files
I am currently downloading Box event log files for my company and am seeing instances where the User Event log and the Admin Event log have holes in their data.
For instance, User Event Log is giving us fields such as item path (path_collection) and file/folder description, but it is not including field data such as IP address.
Conversely, Admin Event Log is giving us IP address, but not item path or file/folder description.We are trying to prevent duplication of data on our end, so we would like to be able to use one log or the other; however,…

check status of options in the admin console
We can't check the area of Zones option now, Box should be better to check status of options in the admin console. That's not only Zones.
We heard so from my customers.1 vote -

Web App: Grey-out "Allow users to join as" setting when blocked via admin console.
We have many users who have opened up tickets or ask questions in regards to the folder setting “Allow anyone who can access this folder from a shared link to join as a collaborator. Allow users to join as.”
This option is disabled, yet unlike the other options which are disabled, this is not greyed out. It throws a non-descript error of “Sorry, there was a problem saving the settings for this folder” which leads users to believe there is an issue with their access level, rather than this is not current functionality. Can we please have this option greyed…

Do not display custom logo/branding by country or region
Would like to have our custom logo blocked for a specific country due the political sensitivity associated with that region.

Allow filtering by application name or service type within the reporting UI (ie: Box FTP Server).
Currently, I can filter in the reporting UI by clicking things like the user or file name from the reporting results. I used to be able to click on "Service: etc", but it didn't do anything.
Box has since removed the ability to click on this, but we would find it helpful to be able to filter these results within the reporting UI.

Account Creation Notification: When new users are added, email admins => unclear wording and missing feature
When a new account is created, notifications should not go to all admins. Admin should have the choice to select who gets the notification (all Admins, main admin, co-admins, specific co-admin)
Most large organizations have co-admins assigned to monitor created users, to support / track and managed account creation and tie it to SSO or internal helpdesk processes.

Generate Report directly from the "View Report" link in "unusual activity" notification email to admin
Please explore changing the Unusual User Activity notification emails to admins to actually spin out the report for a user when the "View Report" link is clicked, instead of prompting admins to run the report manually after clicking "View Report."

Admin console page default for co-admins
Box security best practices, and those of many other enterprises, dictate that no one use the Box super admin account except for very specific purposes like granting or removing co-admin rights to another account.
Day-to-day Box administration is done with co-admin accounts.
Request: co-admin account be given the option to set the admin console as its home page like the super admin account can.

Provide total number of files in Account info
Currently if you go to Admin Console > ent settings > account info, we can see total storage space used in the Box instance. Can you add total # of files in the enterprise?

Report of all comments in a folder
This report would include a each file name and any comments/captions related to the file. This could be used to quickly identify files with similar names, such as images uploaded through Box Capture.
1 voteWe will want to see more use cases for reporting on comments in folders before further consideration.

Allow admin exceptions to enterprise settings that restricts external link creation
We deal with sensitive financial information and would like the highest level of restriction.
However, we'd like to add an admin exception to restrictive settings.
For example, we'd like to have a zip file for a program that is accessible via open shared link owned by the admin account.

Customize 'Get Training' Link in '?' Menu
Currently the '?' menu in the webapp header includes a few links, including the following blurb: "Need more help? Visit our Help Center or Get Training"
'Help Center' by default links to the Box Community site (community.box.com), but we allow admins to override this link via the 'Support Site URL' field in Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Custom Setup.
'Get Training' is also linked in the blurb above (linking to training.box.com), but we currently do NOT allow admins to customize this URL.
This is problematic for some customers (especially large customers) that have fully staffed internal training teams that…

Send a notification sent to user's when their password is about to expire.
We use read only sync as a primary use case. Because users do not log into the webapp, they are not aware when their password expires and files are not being synced.

We will review this with additional demand.

Enterprise settings should trump individual folder settings
My only recommendation is that Enterprise Settings should override individual setting and not the other way around. What if the Enterprise Site Admin account was compromised?
1 voteThank you for submitting this suggestion.
We’re unlikely to look into changing our settings restriction model without additional customers requesting such an investigation. We will monitor this for additional feedback.
