  3. Add information about deleting tasks to the User Activity Report

    If a task is accidentally deleted, the current User Activity Report can't see who deleted what task and when.
    There is currently no way to check if the deleted task was really unnecessary.
    We would like to see more items related to the task function in the User Activity Report so that administrators can see who deleted what tasks and when.

    【タスクの削除に関する情報をユーザーアクティビティレポートに追加する】

    タスクが誤って削除された場合、現在のアクティビティレポートでは、
    誰がいつどのようなタスクを削除してしまったか確認できない。
    削除されたタスクが本当に不要なものであったか、現状では確認する術がないため、
    誰がいつどのようなタスクを削除したか、管理者が確認できるよう、
    アクティビティレポートのタスク機能に関する項目を増やして欲しい。

  4. Exclude Geographical access through Microsoft Applications

    In the Geographic Activity and its Report, it shows access from countries like United States and Singapore where it is accessed not from those countries but via Microsoft integration.
    it would be great if it can be removed because it is not actually accessed from those countries.

  5. User activity on some days only (like saturday and sunday)

    Would it be possible to run the activity report and select some days in the week ?
    It could be interesting to see the activity during the week-end (saturday and sunday), so we can see if it's normal or not.

  6. Feature to retrieve a list of apps added to a managed user account

    Currently there is no ability for tenant administrators to manage the apps that users are adding.
    At a given point in time, we request the ability to get a list of app addition statuses in order to understand which apps are being added by managed users.

  8. allow for setting schedule for a report that's been run (and saved) once

    Hi

    an (easily implemented?) suggestion: when a file report is saved and run once, it seems that it can not be easily re-run on a schedule - one has to create a completely new report and set the schedule from the start. This is not ideal - I like to test things out before I commit to a schedule. Can you allow admins to set/change the schedule for a saved report even though the original saved report is a one-off/manually run?

  9. share reports in a parent folder

    When you create a weekly scheduled report (User Activity report for example) and share it with a user (as a Viewer), this user sees too many folder named "User Activity run on xxxxxx".
    It is because it's the report subfolder that is shared with the user, and not the "Box reports" folder.

    Is it possible to store scheduled reports inside a parent folder (like "Box user reports") or a named one by the administrator creating the report ?

  10. We would like the ability to track files pasted into Box Notes when I can no longer see them.

    【procedure】
    ・Paste the shared link in the box note.
    ・Click the "Insert a preview of this file?" button.
    ・At some point, the link preview that I was watching was displayed as "Sorry, you don't have permission to view this file."

    It is expected that other users have performed some operation and have become unable to browse.
    ①Linked content moved to another folder where it is not authorized.
    ②Linked content has been removed.
    ③The link itself is no longer valid.

    I am very troubled because there is no way to check the content status of the link destination.
    In these cases,…

  11. User Details Report: Add "Confirmation Column"

    If the User Details Report can have a Confirmation column, it allows Admins to know exactly who has completed signing up for Box and who needs to complete their sign up process.

    It can also let us know that if someone is experiencing issues confirming their email, then we can see if any others are having issues by seeing if they are confirmed or not.

  12. The items are shifted when outputting CSV by comma or double quotation

    When outputting a report, if there are commas or double quotation marks, the items are shifted when outputting CSV
    I would like an option to change comma delimiters to tabs etc.

  13. When changing the 「Disable unpublished apps by default」 setting

    【Request】
    I would like to see the 「activation status」 of custom apps also logged when they are automatically changed.

    【Background】
    If you have not manually changed the "Enabled Status" of a custom app at least once in the past,
    I understand that if you have not changed the 「Enable status」 of a custom app manually at least once in the past, it will be automatically changed when you change the 「Disable unpublished apps by default」 setting.
    However, when the 「enable status」 is automatically changed, there is no history in the 「security log」 report, and it is very difficult to determine…

  14. Folder and file reports are output in a tree format, making it easier to understand the folder hierarchy.

    The new platform version of the Folders and Files report is sorted by creation date by default.
    This does not fulfill the role of a folder tree report.
    If folders are not specified, sorting by all folder/file IDs, etc. into a tree format is impractical and affects business operations

    (Japanese)
    「フォルダ・ファイルレポートがツリー形式で出力されることによって、フォルダ階層が分かりやすくなる。」

    新プラットフォーム版のフォルダとファイルレポートはデフォルトで作成日順でソートされます。
    これではフォルダツリーレポートの役割を果たしていません。
    フォルダを指定しない場合、すべてのフォルダ・ファイルID等でツリー形式にソートするのは現実的ではなく業務に影響します。

  15. Rename "Content Accessed" event and improve documentation

    The "Content Accessed" event in the Admin Report is a bit confusing as documented and labeled today. We had an incident where a folder was available to staff inappropriately and used the Admin Report to investigate those who accessed it. It was reasonable for us to believe that users who had a "Content Accessed" event meant that they had accessed the content in some meaningful way. Instead, it simply means that they viewed the metadata of the file in some way in the portal. That's useful information, but the label should probably be clearer about that -- perhaps "Viewed Metadata"…

  17. Ability to schedule Platform Activity Report

    Ability to schedule Platform Activity Report so that admin can monitor API usage on a regular basis. Additional filters for that report in the console will also be helpful. At the moment, admin has to open the report in Excel and do manual filtering.

  18. Date Range Selection - Box Reports

    The Date Range offered, when creating reports, should be increased to include 'Last Quarter'.

    This would enable us to use Saved Reports more frequently, since entering custom dates prevents a report from being saved.

    We regularly run reports to identify Box useage in the last 3 months, to identify those box accounts that can be deleted

  19. Audit Report on Users with Access

    It would be nice to have a report that allows you to select a folder and it returns a list of all the users that have access to that folder or any folder below it. This would be handy in the event that a person needed to run an audit of user accesses within a given structure.

  20. Report status window shows columns in fixed column width which makes data unreadible

    Current view of reports status shows 5 columns in fixed width which makes for instance the date and time stamp unreadable. It would be really helpful if you could adjust the column width like in Microsoft Excel to make the data readable, there's a lot of unused white space at the right side that could be better utilized.
