  2. Give me better tools for managing external users. More search options, different sorts and ability to do mass operations.

    When you have a large number of external users, you find it cumbersome to manage. It would be helpful to have better ways to search for users and ways to edit existing external users. Also, adding expiration dates to their access would be helpful.

  4. Provide notification when auto-provisioning of user accounts fails because a Box account already exists.

    We use auto-provisioning to create Box accounts in our Box managed enterprise environment. When a user is added to a specific group in Azure AD, this kicks off something that creates the account in our Box environment. However, it is possible that users have an existing lite Box account from former roles. When this happens the auto provisioning fails without warning due to a duplicate account. We would like to be notified when this happens. We can see the error in the Azure logs but those are not easy to use for alerting due to sheer size and think this…

  5. Force user email validation for external collaborators

    In the case that Person P from Company B is laid off and p@b.com mailbox is turned off , the Box.com External Account is still active with whatever security it had. Person P can keep accessing Box.com and CNMLLP content without CNMLLP or Company B knowing about it. Also, external bad actors can guess passwords and gain access, and there's no visibility. If we can force an external collaborator to click a link in a email, for instance in a browser-initiated Password Reset that sends an email right away, then it proves that Person P still has access to P@C.com

  7. Bulk add collaborators

  8. Save Collaboration Invite

    I included an email address in my invite message, so the invite was not sent and I got the error, "Collaboration invite was not sent because URLs are not supported in the invite message."

    I had dozens of invitees and a fairly long invite message, so it was aggravating when the invite was not saved for me to edit (remove the email in the message) and retry.

  10. Please make it possible to send invitations to inactive users.

    Administrator fails when inviting inactive users.
    Please make it possible to send invitations to inactive users.
    After sending the invitation, the administrator activates the target user as required.
    This is a useful feature for large accounts with many administrative users.

  12. Create Folder For New User

    Create Folder For New User

    Within the old UI, an admin had the option to create a new folder while adding a new user. Within the new UI, they do not have this ability.

  13. Collect price offers that are published at a specific time

    Would like to be able to create a user where the user can upload offers for a job. BUT the information must first be published to everyone including admin at a specified time.
    In other words, holding a tender via box.

  14. allowing admins to sort by what folder permissions a user has so we can mirror those for another user

    allowing admins to sort by what folder permissions a user has so we can mirror those for another user. Right now, I can't sort by permissions under a user. I have to manually scroll down the whole folder structure and then have another window open with the user that needs the same permissions to the same folders, and add them manually. Why can't we sort by folder owner, or permission?

  15. Blind Guide - Instructions for new collaborators

    I wish to state my ongoing frustration with sharing collaborative folders with my clients via box. The instructions for me, as part of a subscribed user group, are clear. The instructions for a new user who we invite to collaborate ARE NOT. You put me in a position of the blind guide when the client or collaborator asks me for help getting to the files – and Box has not provided sufficient instructions. I suspect Box assumes because I have logged into box as a new user once in the past, that I know how to coach a new user…

  16. App sign in to specific folder

    I use an iPad app to manage PDFs of sheet music. I can sign into Box from the app, but I don't want to grant access to my ENTIRE BOX FOLDER TREE. I want to limit the app to read-only access to a specific folder and its descendants. Is there a way to do this? Can I set up a pseudo-login that accesses just a portion of my tree?

  17. Grant users with "Viewer Uploader" permissions, the ability to name subfolders they create.

    If a user is granted "Viewer Uploader" has edit permissions and can create subfolders inside of a folder they have permission, why don't the have the permissions to name that subfolder?

    I would like to see permissions changed to allow subfolder created by someone with "Viewer Uploader" permissions to be able to at least name the folder that person just created.

  18. Need Permission level between Viewer/Uploader and Editor

    Viewer/Uploader is good, but, not good enough for all use cases; and Editor is too much--especially for external collaborators.

    External collaborators need to be able to fix problems they accidentally create (e.g. uploading the wrong file) or wanting to change the name of a folder when they realize that the current name may be confusing (who hasn't done that?).

    I agree with others' comments that there needs to be a permissions level between Viewer/Uploader and Editor. I can see at least four possible solutions:

    1) Allow collaborators to rename a folder/file. This could help with the accidental upload as well…

  20. shared links need to remain the same if file is revised

    We create PDFs from InDesign files, which I then right click the PDF and "Copy Shared Link" to send to our coworkers and place in a shared file. If we make changes to the InDesign file and resave the PDF with same name and address, the links should remain the same. Right now if we revise the PDF the links are broken and we have to resend new links to everyone and place in the shared files. (We used to use Egynte, and if we made changes to a PDF like this (same name, address) the links would still work…
