  1. 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.

    ユーザーアクティビティレポートのサブフォルダを含める機能の改善依頼

    サポートの記事には下記の通りとなっているが、下記の二点から[表示]でもサブフォルダを含める機能で出力されるよう要望します。
    ・[表示]では出力されないことがレポート出力の画面からは分からないので勘違いをする可能性がある点
    ・[表示]と比較して[実行]の完了までは時間が掛かる点


    警告:
    [サブフォルダを含める] 機能が有効になっている場合、[表示] オプションは動作せず、サブフォルダ内のイベントは取得されません。

  2. Report export function for active/inactive status of file request links

    File request links, when created, edited, or deleted, appear in the user activity report, but not in the active or inactive status.
    We are considering asking users to deactivate them for security integrity or to force deactivation of those that have been inactive for a period of time.
    However, we cannot determine from the list of file requests in the management console whether all the information is visible.
    Without an export function, some links will remain inactive for long periods of time.
    To improve security and convenience, we request the ability to export activity and inactivity status.

    ファイルリクエストリンクは、作成、編集、または削除されると、ユーザーのアクティビティレポートに表示されますが、アクティブまたは非アクティブのステータスは表示されません。
    私たちは、セキュリティの完全性のために、ユーザーにそれらを非アクティブにするように依頼するか、一定期間非アクティブになったものを強制的に非アクティブにすることを検討しています。
    しかし、管理コンソールのファイルリクエストのリストから、すべての情報が表示されているかどうかを判断することはできません。…

  3. 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.

  4. Report on Metadata Cascade

    There is currently no way to generate a report via the admin console that indicated if a metadata template is set to cascade. A folders and files report can show what metadata is applied, but the only way to know if it cascades it to navigate to the folder in the webapp, run API queries, or intuit it by inspecting sub-files/folders to if if the value cascaded.

  5. Setting Output Destination for Box Reports

    I want to be able to set the output destination folder name or file name for Box reports. Since it is necessary to regularly create activity logs for each team and project, I want to be able to distinguish which department or project the report belongs to by folder name or file name.

    Boxレポートの出力先フォルダ名かファイル名を設定できるようにしたい。チームや案件毎にアクティビティログを定期的に作成する必要があるため、フォルダ名やファイル名でどの部署や案件のレポートなのか区別できるようにしたい

  6. Box Shield - ability to save Shield Alert details to MS Word and PDF document

    There should be a button on face of Box Shield Alert that enables user to save the alert to Word or as PDF. This can then be forwarded to line managers if details are requested to challenge or discuss with their staff

  8. Rename 'include subfolders' switch in User Activity report to 'include activity within subfolders'

    There has been some confusion, as not enabling this switch still includes activity directly impacting the subfolders that sit in the parent level.

  9. 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…

  10. Option to exclude files from files and folders report

    Ability to exclude files in the files and folders report. This will reduce the excel file size and loading time. Allowing for faster data analysis.

  11. 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…

  12. Ability to Name Scheduled Reports

    Add the ability to name the scheduled report. Currently the report is delivered as a csv file with the generic name of the report being run ie: "User Activity" and a date/time stamp. It would be very helpful to have the ability to type the name of the report so when it is delivered to me or my team the name is meaningful, and we readily know the content of the report. For example, if we have multiple reports scheduled, but they all arrive with the name "User Activity" we must open each one to determine what the content is…

  13. Replace the Last Login on the User Details report with Last Activity

    Replace the Last Login on the User Details report with Last Activity. It is very misleading to have Last Login, most people will assume this means if the last login was over a year ago, they aren't active.

  14. 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.

  16. Change the Last Login on the User Details report with Last Activity

    The Last Login date of the User Details report doesn't show the real last login time of each users.
    As it's misleading, it'better to add the Last activity date instead of Last Login.

  17. 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.

  19. Specify multiple users at the same time when specifying users in folder and file reports/フォルダとファイルのレポートでユーザーを指定する際に複数のユーザーを同時に指定できるようにしたい

    After revoking a free account, you will need to delete or change the ownership of any items that are owned by individuals in accordance with the operation of your tenant.
    At this time, we would like to be able to specify all users who have rolled up items in a tenant in a folder and file report, and identify items that are owned by individual users.
    The current functionality allows you to specify only one name when outputting a report.
    If there are many users who have performed tenant rollups, you can specify each user to search for items that…

    Reporting on Justification.
    When you have a policy that can be overridden by justification, we would like to be able to report on which user invite external collaborators by using which justification, so we can filter it quickly and ask the user when necessary for audit purposes.
