  3. Role based permissions or more granular permissions on groups

    Ideal is a role based permission where you can select individual folders, people, and files that users have access to as well as admin permissions.

    Other option is to add more granular permissions for groups.

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

    We will reconsider with additional use cases.

  5. 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.

    This 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.

  8. Event Stream notification for Admin Console changes

    We need to monitor security of our environment and want to be able to identify and flag, via the Event Stream, when any Admin Console setting is changed.

    This is available via the UI in User Reports, but is not in the Event Stream.

    This is especially important for enterprises who rely on SIEM tools like Splunk and QRadar to alert to unauthorized actions.

  12. Opening the "Reports" menu, "Create Report" appears by default.

    When we open a "report" from the admin console, we will now see "Report Status" board.
    Before the "Report Status" board was created, "Report Create" was the first thing that was displayed.

    The main purpose of opening the "report" page is to create a report.
    The Report Status is a page to check when something happens, so it is not the main recognition.

    At the moment we have to click on the "Create Report" tab whenever we want to create a report.
    Next we will want to click on the Export button for any report.

    We hope to eliminate this…

  13. Allow user activity report to be filtered by affected user

    We are unable to run the user activity report due the scale of their enterprise (15,000+ users).

    Please run this report (particularly to determine collaboration permission changes) for a given affected users.

    This would allow us to get the information of interest to them rather than a enterprise wide report that is almost unmanageable to filter after being run.

  15. 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.

  16. Ability to output a list of all collaborators via API

    Currently you are not able to export external users as a list. You can only validate if a certain user is external or not.

  20. Deletion specific reporting

    A deletion specific reporting tool would help us locate deleted files that we don't know the owner or deleter of.
