Enable Box Admin (Content) search results to populate full-width screen, and shown FULL path of content
Having searched for a string " " in Box Admin/Content, the results for a folder do not show the FULL path of that folder, because the full path length is too long for the report width.
I have been advised by Box Support that this is expected.
I suggest that the report width should not be hard-wired (as is currently) to fit laptop-width. Instead, the folder path should wrap onto a new row, or if screen-size allows (eg external monitor), the full path is shown on the same row.
It should also be possible for users to change the width…

Enhance Box Reports to store metadata (parameters used) in output folder
Box Admin users regularly run several reports in a day or week, and may not read the content until days after run, and is difficult to identify the purpose it was run for, and the parameters used.
It would be helpful, and not difficult to do, for Box to save the parameters used when creating a report, and perhaps offer users a free-text field to store (at the time it is run) the reasons why it was being run
The following details should be available to view, when a report is completed:
- report type (eg Box Sign, Classification, Collaborations,…2 votes -
Custom Identifiers that can be seen in user reports
Customer Requests the ability to upload custom identifiers that can be seen when running user reports. Currently they use the user's email address to determine if a license is needed, and when a name change occurs, this creates confusion as it appears that the person may have left and the license is no longer needed.

Ability to export "Direct Links" from box in reports
We have the ability to export "Shared links" but would like the ability to also export "Directly Links" as well.
We use box to host 6k plus folders and files. Inside those are some PNG files that , when direct links are on can open up directly to the PNG file instead of the traditional view with the box logo on the top left. This helps us post product in our website with a more professional full screen view that direct links provide.

We would like you to be able to specify the person who operated and the target folder and file when outputting by specifying "restore from trash" in the activity report.
Currently, if you know the item name for sure, it will not be searched if it has been moved to the Recycle Bin, and you cannot specify items in the target folder and file items.
If it becomes possible to specify when reporting even if it has been moved to the trash,
It is a useful clue when conducting research.(In Japanese)

Ability to adjust display pictures
Every time I post my profile picture it is sideways. I've tried changing the pictures direction before uploading it, etc and nothing works. It's totally frustrating. Would love to be able to adjust the picture on the program.

Folder reports for X level
Add a report to the admin console that is only folders (can filter by owner and location) and contains a column for level so that admins can have visibility into content structures across their enterprise.
(similar to the BC Folders by X Level report)

Prompt to give choice to Abandon or Continue running a report when output is large
Box Admin reports can, when selecting few filters, generate a large quantity of output - sometimes 200+ csv files for a single report.
There should therefore be a 'pre-run' test in the background before the report begins generating, that checks to see if there would be more than (say)10x csv files created by the report if it were to begin with the current settings...
If so (akin to when someone attempts to move a considerable amount of Box content), a prompt/popup should appear warning the user that there will be a large quantity of output, and giving user two choices,…

Please reflect "Notify affected users" setting change on the security logs report
Currently, "Notify affected users: x days before expiration" setting change does not get reflected on the security logs report.
<Repro steps:>
- Go to Admin Console > Enterprise Settings > [Content & Sharing] tab.
- Make sure "Automatically remove invited collaborators" is ON.
- Turn on or off "Notify affected users: x days before expiration" checkbox and save the setting, with "Automatically remove invited collaborators" kept ON.
- Run the security logs report.
Currently the change does not get logged on the security logs report.

file and folder tree report same-day request
Allow real-time file and folder tree reporting as soon as files are uploaded. (Currently, I'm able to only request these overnight.) Leapfile, your competitor, allows for real-time reporting. Box should too.

Include item type in user activity report
When running an User Activity report, the Item ID is included, but not the Item Type. If you're trying to use the Activity report to perform some other action, you have to figure out what the item type is before you can perform the action. Additionally as ?good practice? you should make check both file & folder to ensure that you're not going against the wrong actual item if there's a item with the same type on the other endpoint.
It would save some significant time on report consumer's side if the item type was included in the output report.

Improve the UX when editing filters for a saved report
When editing the filters on a saved report, it is difficult to review the data in the "Users and Groups" field as it is very squashed.
Can you consider making this section larger so it is easier to view any users or groups included in the report. Or maybe have a button to export the list to a text file for easier viewing and modification.

Request for improvement of Includes Subfolders feature in User Activity Report
( Japanese follows English)
The support article is as follows, but I would like to request that the Includes Subfolders feature also works and outputs the data in “View” for the following two reasons.
The report output screen does not show the fact that the feature does not work in “View”, so there is a possibility of misunderstanding.
It takes longer to complete [Run] than [View],
Warning:
When the Includes Subfolders feature is on, the View option doesn't work - it doesn't pull events in the subfolders.

Quickly get a list of folders with NO collaboratoins
We have a few hundred abandoned/orphaned folders from people who left the enterprise, but did not transfer ownership of files. The folders were not deleted when the accounts were deleted. I could quickly delete quite a few of them if there are no collaborations--going by the logic that if there are no collaborations, there is nothing important in them and could easily be deleted since no one has missed the data for several years.

Include the ability to add additional information to a user creation event or new collaboration event
User creation and collaboration often includes a number of details that should be recorded and auditable by Box Admins. When a user is created, there is often a sponsor, a ticket or request ID, and potentially a rationale, project name, or dozens of other information that needs to be remembered by the organization. Likewise, when collaborations are created, there is often additional context that should be auditable after the fact - what is the reason for the collaboration, what is the project or ticket ID that led to the request, who is the sponsor - this is especially important for…
