  1. 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.

    not planned  ·  katiele responded

    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.

  2. Show number of collaborations user has

    In the search results view of the Managed Users section of Admin Console, currently all you can see on the second line is Active/Inactive state, and bytes owned.

    It would be very useful if we could also see a numerical count of collaboration invites in this view.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We can revisit this request as we see more demand from customers to view the number of collaborations for each user.

  4. Allow the admin to change the user addresses to upper case letters

    Currently you cannot change user addresses if you are only changing the letter cases

    johndoe@box.com
    JOHNDOE@box.com

    Box will treat these emails as the same address and will not send a confirmation email to the user.

    Thank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.

    We will reconsider with additional use cases and demand.

  6. User-Level Sharing Controls: Control sharing permissions at the User level

    This request is specific to controlling external sharing permissions and defaults at the user level. For example, an admin should be able to permit whether a user can generate Open Shared Links (e.g., disable open links per user), invite external collaborators, and the default shared link permission that is generated by that user, even if those users are within a folder that has external sharing enabled.

    We are currently focused on building groups for access to 1st and 3rd party apps and specific enterprise settings in Box rather than focusing on groups or individual users for sharing controls. Uservoice request here: pulse.box.com/admin/v3/suggestions/36670615

    To achieve granular sharing controls, you can explore using Box Shield to classify sensitive content and set access policies to that content.

  7. Admin Console Report - Need to filer Upload types under User Statistics Report

    We are pulling admin console reports for User Statistics - Under Uploads, we would like to see a filter for files and folders for their App Users.

    For now, we are focussed on solving bulk management issues with Shared Links.

    Box Shield is an additional option for enforcing granular controls on content.

  13. Enable searching for groups by name

    We have ~1500 employees and many legacy group. We are working to create a new group structure and have a need to search for similar groups by name to create a mapping to consolidate their groups.

    Customers can use the Get Enterprise Groups API to retrieve groups by name: https://developer.box.com/v2.0/reference.

    However, we do not provide this functionality through the Groups UI in the Admin Console. This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap because we are currently focusing on improving the user interface and performance to manage users.

  14. Deleted accounts: Retrieve and restore any previous collaboration relationships

    Allow for a Point in Time recovery.

    We inadvertently de-provisioned a group of users and then re-provisioned them. Upon re-provisioning, we want Box to be able to restore the user collaboration points to how they existed prior.

    This is not currently planned as it is an edge case. We will reconsider with additional demand.

  15. Security Report: Include Changes to Any Setting from Enterprise Settings

    Currently, the Security Report doesn't appear to capture quite a few settings changes that happen in Enterprise Settings in the Admin console, which is bad.

    For example, if an admin is wanting to know who changed the 'save files to device' setting on the Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Mobile tab, there's no in-product way currently to identify that. Also,

    --All Notifications tab settings except for the Compliance Email Archive settings are missing
    --ALL settings from the Apps tab are missing, meaning there are no filters/logs exposed currently for any changes to make apps available/disabled, disabling all published apps,…
