  1. The ability to set the report name when the Export Report option on any report

    Exported reports currently write with a standard name of the report type with date and time but it is challenging when I have reports with almost similar names and the only difference is the date and time. It is confusing to ID a report when I run the same report multiple times.

    If users can specify the report name when exporting it, it would make it easier to jump to the report. I know users can rename the report but it would be a lot easier and more efficient if the report is named right from the start.

  2. Access Stats: Ability to get Access Stats programmatically per-file

    Provide an a file API endpoint to obtain Access stats similar to the functionality in the Webapp.

    Right now, we have to collect all the relevant events and do the math every time to get an accurate count. This complicates the application logic. Would be much easier to obtain the stats without having to calculate them on your own just like the UI does.

    For example having the ability to pass a field and get summary figures in the response. Having to create an event parser to do this is a high barrier to entry to get this type of…

    This proposed enhancement to email notifications and to custom branding is a reasonable idea, but an area that we are unlikely to invest in this year.

    <Request for addition of a function to narrow down groups using the filter conditions of [Users and Groups] in the management console in the new UI>
    In the old UI, it was possible to narrow down the search by group using the "Users and Groups" filter condition in the management console.
    However, with the new UI, it is not possible to narrow down groups using filter conditions.

    We set expiration dates on Box accounts and delete accounts when the application deadline has passed or expired.
    If there were a large number of accounts, the users to be deleted were grouped…

  7. Customize Banner notifications in Box web UI

    All our users (not just Admin accounts) have been getting more banner notifications regarding new features being rolled out and/or Box events that will be occurring.

    We'd like to have the capability to control and suppress banner notifications on the Box web UI.

    Features announcements and/or Box events being broadcasted via these banners are not applicable to our users as how they are communicated. It is setting incorrect expectations and miscommunicating what features and functionality we are supporting as an enterprise within Box.

  9. Store all generated Box Reports into a Single Shared Folder for the Enterprise

    Need a common folder in the enterprise to store reports generated by box by admins and various co-admins. This will reduce the load on the box platform as well as it will significantly reduce duplicate runs. One such way to do this would be Instead of creating new "Box Reports" folder under every user who runs the report enhance the report generation feature to module to look for a folder name "Box Reports" and if exists then upload the reports there. Alternatively make a it an enterprise setting where admin can pre-designate a folder where all generated reports will be…

  11. When users delete folders, we want not only the folders but also the files within to be shown in Trash.

    When users delete folders, we want not only the folders but also the files within to be shown in Trash. Here is the behavior we noticed: a. We enable "Restrict content creation" in Enterprise Settings. b. User who is not the owner of the folder deletes files. -> The files will be shown in Trash. c. The same user deletes the folder which the files above existed in. d. The files which were deleted in process "a" are no longer shown in trash, making users unable to restore them, unless they restore the folder itself. e. However, the files will…

  12. Auto Expiration Collaborations - allowing for Editors to extend

    Similar to how an editor can extend a shared link's expiration, it would be great if that functionality worked with extending the expiration for collaborations.

  13. Admin Console - User File Search - Results Download

    Admin Console - Content - User File Search - Results Download enhancement

    Allow administrators the ability to download the full user file search from Admin Console -> Content section. The results output would contain all fields present on the current search results page. The output would be in CSV format.

    This feature would be useful for eDiscovery purposes.

  17. User activity report - for file move/ copy event, display full path to show where the files are originated from

    For file move/ copy activity on User Activity report. "Detail" tab would show the name of the parent folder on where the file is from. "Parent Folder" tab would show the full path of destination.

    If parent folder could also display in full path, intuitively it is easier for the admin to understand where the files are moved from and to.

  20. The ability to change the format of metadata templates once set

    The format of a metadata template cannot be changed after it has been set.
    In this case, once a numerical value has been set for the format, only numerical values are available afterwards. This is less convenient and makes information collection more difficult.
    If new metadata is added, I have to reconfigure non-target items as well, and since metadata is deployed company-wide, the number of target files is too large and the workload is too high.
    Also, to set it via API I have to create a programme, which increases the number of API calls and increases costs.
    Therefore, I…
