Option to Designate Which Email Address (Primary vs. Alias) is Used for Box Email Notifications
Admin is SSO required and is unable to receive email notifications on their primary email address used for SSO.
Email notification in Box currently are not sent out to aliases.
However, when testing with the other email aliases for their company, the emails went through correctly.
The issue is that changing the Box primary email address requires changing the SSO primary email attribute which would break the login flow for other applications and programs.
We would like to have email notifications be able to be sent to these aliases.
We do not want to do the workaround of configuring their…
0 votesThis is not a priority at the moment given our roadmap commitments. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Adjust Width of objects (Folder name etc.) in "Edit Invited Collaborator Details"
We are not able to see the full folder name if it has long length.

More nuanced levels of control over what co-admins have access to is currently under consideration. However, changes that would apply to the Content Manager through this are not currently being planned.

Reset all existing Open Shared links to "People in the Folder" or "People in the company" via the Box UI
We would like to have a way to set all existing links on our accounts to either "people in the folder" or "people in the company" even when allowing shared links.
At present, we would have to use the API calls below or do it manually:
https://docs.box.com/reference#create-a-shared-link-for-a-file
https://docs.box.com/reference#create-a-shared-link-for-a-folder
This is rather time consuming or impossible for companies who do not know how to use the API
0 votesThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

New User-Level Field: "User Description" (Free Text)
Other applications (like Slack) have a user-level free text field (similar to a User Description / Information field) where admins or users can enter free text to describe the user.
1 voteThis is not currently planned. We will revisit this with additional use case data and customer requests.

Ability to create Box reports by API
To import snapshot data (folders and files, collaborations etc.) to SIEM like Splunk, it's convenient that Box reports data can be created by API.
23 votesCustomers can utilize the existing events infrastructure to gather this data, so we do not have any plans to provide snapshots in fewer API calls in the short term.

Thanks for the submission. I’m not sure we understand the user problem. Please add your feedback in the comments and we will reconsider.

See login activity reports
We would like to see each users login activity, including those who have never logged into Box.

"Failed logins" on Enterprise Settings should clear the number of failed login when a user logins successfully
Currently, the number of failed login piles up even after a user logins successfully. It's strange, so it should be cleared when a user logins successfully.
1 voteThis is a reasonable request, however we do not have enough user demand to prioritize this feature.

Create a group of previously created groups aka nested groups
We have a group of providers that we would like to make a larger super-group of the nested smaller groups instead of adding each individual user
21 votesAt this time, we are developing solutions for using groups to grant access to apps and enterprise settings. https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778/suggestions/36670615
Supporting nested groups may be a longer term vision that we consider after solving the first problem above.

Ability to export reports in CSV format
CSV is more useful than Excel when they export logs because some our internal system can import only CSV format (not Excel). It's more convenient to give an option to choose CSV or Excel as export type.
4 votesBecause the admin can save the Excel file as a CSV and we do not want to overpopulate the user interface with too many choices, it is unlikely that we will address this request.

Ability to import/export group information to edit
To edit group settings efficiently, it's helpful that Box Admin can import/export group information for bulk edit.
8 votesThere is a clear ask for bulk operations (edit/delete/add) for user management in the Admin Console, but we are currently focusing on making our user management pages and APIs scale and perform more quickly. While this is on our radar, we are not currently prioritizing this on our near term roadmap.

Automatic Disable of Account Based on Activity

Group collaborations: include information in Enterprise Events about the folder that was added/removed
When a group is given access to a folder (or folder access is removed from a group), Enterprise Events for GROUPADDITEM / GROUPREMOVEITEM should include information about the item that was added or removed, as well as the collaborator level.
0 votesThis suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the experience to manage users in the Users & Groups tab.

Renaming and moving files/folders: include old and new names and locations in Enterprise Events call
If renaming or moving a file or folder, Usage Log reports include both the new and old names, and new and old locations. The old location and old name are missing from Enterprise Events via the Content API.
4 votesThank you for this request! We do not plan on prioritizing this at the moment. We’ll continue to monitor demand.

Change the default message in text Box when inviting new collaborator to a folder
Would like to be able to change the default text in this section to another default text. Currently, you can manually edit this section every time you add a new user to a folder. We want to be able to change what populates this section by default.
1 voteWe are unlikely to build a setting to enable changes to this default. However, if there is a better default message that may work for all of our customers, we are happy to reconsider.
-
Ability to report on what types of files users have
The ability to drill down at the user level to show what kinds of files a user has. E.g. 50% .docx, 10% jpg etc. without looking at the content itself.
0 votesThank you for the suggestion! We are not reviewing this at the moment, but will consider with additional customer demand.
