  2. Retention policy should be able to remove folders in addition to files.

    Currently the governance retention policy only delete files. We are using the integration with Oracle NetSuite and as such we have a folder that then gets a folder setup for each Case as we are sending and/or receiving data from customers via the Case we have with them. The policy is set to get data for 30 days. The files are getting removed, however, the folders still exist. This makes it challenging when you look from the Box web interface. It would be nice to have the ability to set folders to remove if they are empty.

  5. Restrict Classification edits to Governance menu

    A admin can access the Classification template in the Metadata page and delete values of classification. That makes errors. Classification should be only accessible via the Governance menu and not via the Metadata menu.

  7. Reports: Replace User ID in the Legal Hold Report with User's Email

    In the current Legal Hold report export (Excel file), users are referred to by their User ID (e.g., 123233124) which isn't really helpful for an admin to identify 'who' that is.

    Using email address would be a much better field to include, either replacing the User ID field OR adding in Email as an additional column.

  12. Upload Policy Type for folder locations

    'Upload' Policy Type does not provide the option to apply at a folder level. It would be ideal if all policy types had the option to apply it to specific folders.

  13. Special characters 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"

  14. Expansion of File Version Limit settings

    For customers currently using Governance, the "File Version Limit" setting can be set to 1-100 or unlimited.
    We would like this setting to be improved so that it can be specified as 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, etc. The reason is that problems may occur when there are multiple file versions when migrating between tenants or within a tenant, so I would like to limit this in the settings.

  15. Larger capacity and limit for exporting legal hold content

    Larger capacity and limit for exporting legal hold content

    Currently, only two legal hold contents can be exported at a time, and the maximum export size is 4TB.
    When there are many legal hold targets, the export setting needs to be repeated many times to download them, which takes a large amount of time.
    Therefore, we would like you to revise the maximum number of targets and capacity.

    現在、リーガルホールドコンテンツのエクスポートは1度に2つまでしか対象を指定出来ず、かつ容量が4TBまでとなっております。
    リーガルホールド対象が多いとダウンロードするために何度もエクスポート設定を繰り返す必要があり、時間が大量にかかります。
    そのため、対象と容量の上限を見直しして欲しい。

  16. Regardless of the recycle bin deadline, legal holds are a priority

    Regardless of the recycle bin deadline, legal holds are a priority

    Under the current legal hold specification, the following contents are deleted from the recycle bin and become invisible even if a legal hold is applied when a deadline is set in the recycle bin.
    This is a very unfortunate specification, and we would like to see it improved so that legal holds are prioritized over recycle bin expiration dates and not deleted.

    ■Patterns that become invisible from the Recycle Bin
    Folders and files deleted before legal hold
    Folders/files deleted after legal hold

    現状のリーガルホールド仕様ではごみ箱に期限を設定しているとリーガルホールドをかけても下記コンテンツはごみ箱から削除され見えなくなってしまいます。
    これは非常に残念な仕様です、そのため、リーガルホールドが優先され削除されないように改善して欲しい。

    ■ごみ箱から見えなくなるパターン
    ・リーガルホールド前に削除されたフォルダ・ファイル
    ・リーガルホールド後に削除されたフォルダ

  17. Don't move or delete content with legal holds to a different folder

    Don't move or delete content with legal holds to a different folder

    The current specification is that content with a legal hold can be moved or deleted.
    However, this is undesirable in a situation where fraud has been clarified.
    Therefore, we would like to see an improvement so that it cannot be moved to another folder or deleted.

    リーガルホールドを設定したコンテンツを別フォルダへの移動や削除が出来ないようにして欲しい

    リーガルホールドを設定したコンテンツが現状は移動や削除可能な仕様になっています。
    しかし、不正が明確化した状況ではこれは望ましくないです。
    そのため、別フォルダへの移動や削除が出来ないように改善してほしい。

  18. Additional versioning features

    Additional features regarding the version history:

    1. The ability to manually update the version number of a document on initial upload. This would allow existing version numbers to match version numbers tracked in Box.
    2. The ability to add the version number tracked in Box to the file name when downloading documents. This would eliminate the need to manually update the version number in file names, which could be prone to error.

  19. Delete User without transferring content when using Retention Policy

    【Background】
    When a Retention Policy is active and I try to delete a user that does not have a content that is under retention policy, it is required to transfer their content to another user.

    【Request】
    When the user that does not hold an item that is not under retention policy, I would like to have the user deleted without transferring their content.

    This is because we are currently using an ecosystem called Hakonnect, which manages users, but it returns an error when trying to delete a user with retention policy on.
