Allow Excel to open report (csv) without worrying about encoding
The encoding for such csv file is in UTF-8 (no Byte Order Mark) and Excel failed to interpret such file, resulting in non-Unicode character turning garble.
Since we open this report in a Spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel, it would be beneficial to have Byte Order Mark added to the csv report in the first place.
The workaround now is either
1) Open the csv file in a modern text editor and re-save it using UTF-8 (with Byte Order Mark)2) Open a blank spreadsheet on Excel. From "Data" tab click on import from text data source. The manually imported…

Report on who deleted from trash
Currently we have configured our Box instance to disallow end users to delete files, only for Admins and not even auto-delete items after X days. However, we are looking for some record/log of this.
4 votesIt will be super helpful to understand the business impact to report on who deleted from trash. At this moment, admins can configure rules to delete trash after a certain period time. This doc would be helpful: https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Files-and-Folders/Trash/ta-p/19212

Allow Special characters to be searchable in content manager
The ability to search with the filename and extension within quotes, i.e. workshop.one
Right now, search separates the two and makes it difficult to locate the file, as it would be searching for "workshop one"

Inadvertent Enterprise Setting changes
Today I was perusing various settings and accidently clicked my mouse on a portion of the page and a checkbox was selected (iWork option).
Also upon doing this a toast showed up saying my change was saved. I think this is a bit scary and wish there was some confirmation dialog rather than an automatic save.

Lite Users added to Groups when rolled in as a managed user
When lite users are rolled in, the admins would like to have the ability to add users to groups within the WebApp UI, instead of having to add users to groups 'AFTER' they are rolled in

Role configuration on group sharing
In Enterprise setting -> Content & Sharing -> Collaborating on Content Tab, you can configure which role to enable and the permission those roles gets. This setting only applies to individual collaborator but not Group. You can disable Co-owner in that setting but still see it available when doing folder sharing with group.
We assume that the setting above is a global thing and applies to both individual collaborators and groups, so we find it a little confusing.
Can you put an extra option like "Apply the same role setting to group" in "Collaborating on Content" tab to better demarcate…

Map AD groups to co-admin roles
Like many large companies, we use AD groups for privileged roles like reporting and team management. There is no current way to map these AD groups into co-admin roles and the Box admin must set these manually.
This does not scale and is a major admin overhead for IT departments to have multiple places to administer something as simple as being able to generate reports or edit metadata templates.
6 votesThis does sound like a huge burden for admins and I’d like to hear more about how you’d use existing AD groups to grant co-admin permissions. We are looking into extending our APIs to allow admins to set co-admin permissions, which may alleviate the pain of setting the permissions manually.
However, we don’t currently have any plans to take the AD groups and map them to co-admin permissions at this time.
