  1. Ability to create a custom group name that will be displayed on the collaborator list without affecting the SSO integration

    Currently, groups only have names unlike user accounts that have names and aliases. However, since we have SSO groups enabled, we have found that is impossible to rename groups without causing issues.

    Because of SSO groups, we had to have a specific naming convention for our groups so we can know which groups to send to Box. All our group names begin with COMPANYBOXPD and then the corresponding team name. Since these groups are shown as collaborators, it will be nice to be able to edit the group to display a user friendly group rather than the technical…

    Thank you for the submission! This is a reasonable request. However, we will need to hear from additional customers before prioritizing this request.

  2. The ability to customise width of columns

    Without this ability, some file names aren't displayed fully in the Content Manager.

  4. Auto Provisioning for Japanese name (lastname->firstname)

    When Auto Provisioning option is enabled, the user's name is set "firstname lastname", but we hope to have "lastname firstname".

    Currently, Japanese users set firstname information to "lastname" and lastname information to "firstname" in SAML Response.

    Firstname and Lastname should be separated like in Salesforce.

    Thanks for filling this. Because there is a workaround (though not ideal) to this issue, we are not likely to prioritize this request.

  5. Rolling content from deprovisioned users

    There needs to be an option to specify a particular user for all deleted users' content to be rolled in to. This could be capped so that LFO doesn't happen, or maybe by number of users in the enterprise.

    The other option is for "Inactive" users' content to still be accessible, and the seat no longer counting in the enterprise.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the performance and user interface to manage users in the Users & Groups tab before we add enhancements to the de-provisioning process.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We will revisit as we receive more demand from customers for this feature

  7. Support Multi-Select for Granting Folder Access to Groups (via Folder Picker on Groups Page of Admin Console)

    Admins must currently add folders to Groups in the Admin Console on a one-by-one basis, so if an admin has 10 folders to add, that's a lot of clicks.

    You could simplify this process by supporting multi-select in the folder picker that's provided when editing a Group from the Admin Console.

We will provide an update in the next few quarters.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. However, we’d like more clarity and details from the requester about this suggestion to better understand the problem and where exactly in the Admin Console this sorting is needed.

  9. Ability to change user external collaboration role by API

    Support divestitures and enabling default setting to enabled. We have folks doing this task which should be easily automated.

  10. 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?

    Thank 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.

    For Admins, Content Manager is essentially a visualization of the folder tree.

  12. Ability to edit a file if it is in the Trash

    Once a file is in the trash, the only way to remove tags, metadata, is by restoring the file, making the changes, and sending it back to Trash.

  13. Quarantined Files - View Folder Path

    Currently an admin looking at the Quarantine section of Content Manager is not shown any information about where the file was attempted to be uploaded, which is also where the file will exist if the admin clicks 'restore' (approves) the file.

    REQUEST: Provide location information for quarantined files such as the folder path, owner, uploader, etc. This information is already in the policy violation email that's sent to admins, so it should also be available in Content Manager.

    We are not currently making any vast improvements on quarantine in the short term. This is still helpful. We will reconsider it when working on this feature area.

  16. Enhance the 'Storage Aggregate' Chart in Admin Console - Allow Exporting & Adjustments

    The 'Storage Aggregate' chart on the homepage of the Admin Console is currently the only way for an admin to see/view the total storage used on a daily basis within their EID

    As such, we should enhance this chart in the following ways:
    1. Allow this chart to be expanded/made bigger
    2. Allow customization of the time period - 'show me total daily storage over the past 2 weeks, or month, etc.'
    3. All exporting of the total daily values into a simple CSV/Excel report

  19. 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?

    This is not planned for our current roadmap. We will let you know if anything changes.

  20. 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.
