  1. 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…

  2. Ability to copy existing report to create new one

    When creating a new scheduled report, that is similar to an existing scheduled report, it would be time-saving and efficient for the existing scheduled report that has the filters and schedule closed to those needed for the new report, to be able to COPY and SAVE AS the existing report's filters and schedule, to then edit to suit the new report's needs.

    This would be far superior and timesaving than creating the new report from scratch, having first to screenshot the existing report's filters and schedules to ensure that the new one is created similarly.

    For example, a scheduled report…

  3. Add Timestamp to Files and Folder Tree Report

    The Files and Folder Tree report in the Admin Console only displays the date for content created/modified, etc. It'd be helpful to include the full timestamp in the date field.

  4. Device Reporting

    It would be very useful to see all details of devices that our users are signing into. For instance, I can see the IP addresses where users are signed in, but I cannot see the specific device details. This is crucial for seeing the impact of locking down access via device trust.

  6. No Logs for prevent Managed User username change

    The new feature allowing administrators to Prevent managed users from altering their Profile Name information does not generate any log entries when it is activated. Additionally, changes to this setting are not recorded, like when someone deactivates it.
    Please request that any modifications made through the Admin Console be included in the security logs. This must be forgotten in the development plan.

  7. Audit Log for Outbound Email Status

    Feature request to allow an audit log for outbound emails sent from Box (noreply@box.com).

    The problem: An external collaborator says they did not receive an email notification for an uploaded/edited file. The external collaborator has the proper Box email notification settings but did not receive an email from Box.
    Currently, there is no way for us to know with certainty that the email left Box's email server OR if there was an issue trying to send to the external collaborator (e.g. collaborator email is blacklisted due to previous bounces).

    We can't help clients with issues on receipt of…

  8. Updated retrieval of invitation logs from external tenants

    If you get a log by user name, you can see which tenant you received an invitation from, but if you set the acquisition target to an administrative group, you will not know which tenant you received the invitation from. Even if you designate a group, I want you to know where you received the invitation from.

  9. Retrieving usage logs for external tenants

    I want you to be able to upload and copy files outside the tenant as well as logs inside the tenant.
    Currently, we can see the file ID, but we don't know the file name or which tenant stored the data.

    Add File Size and Scheduled Report option for Disposition Reports in Admin Console. Allowing the Admin to monitor disposition activities based on their reporting cadence to ensure files/folders are deleted as expected without having to run the Folder/Files report and comparing against the options in that report.

  15. Include Specific Changes to User Privileges in User Activity Report

    When running a user activity report that displays changes to a user's privileges, would like to view the specific settings that were edited.

    Example: A user's/co-admin's privileges for the "Restrict External Collaboration" was checked at an unknown time. Would like to be able to check which user made this change and when the change was made.

  17. Folders and Files Report - Include Subfolders

    When you run the Folders and Files Report, and you filter down to run the report on a specific folder, you are unable to select the subfolders within that folder. This really limits the functionality of this report.

    I request that you add the "Include Subfolders" toggle to the Folders and Files report (just as it exists in the User Activity Report)

  18. extract report on tag

    I would like to extract a report to see what kind of tags are attached to each item.
    We would like to do this because we are planning to monitor the access of each document by categorizing each document into different tags like "Production innovation", "quality assurance", "inventory reduction", "productivity improvement", "design enhancement".

  20. User Interface Experience in Reporting.

    1. When generating a report through Admin Console, you have to manually search for the folder list and often get too many queries and takes too long. It would be a better experience to be prompted with the root directory that you can just drill down to which folder you want to report on in addition to the search functionality.
    2. When creating a scheduled report, the interface is a bit confusing because you have to hit Schedule Report, then hit schedule again, this should be a once step process and is confusing to most users, additionally the schedule button have a…
