  1. 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

    「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。

  2. 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    ③The link itself is no longer valid.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,…

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

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 When changing the 「Disable unpublished apps by default」 setting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

  6. 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"…

  7. 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.

  9. 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

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  13. Periodic alert function Inventory function

    Periodic alert function Inventory function
    The number of managed users increases through folder invitations between users.
    Hopefully, gives alerts per month, per week to an admin.

    Users who are active but do not actually operate and use for a long period of time.
    Hopefully, gives alerts 28days, or 90days.

  14. Folder Colloborator

    We have a need to report on when a managed or external user views the list of collaborators on a folder. Also, ability to hide collaborators, unless owner/co-owner, for all folders and from an admin console standpoint, versus configuring at the folder level.

  15. Add column to Shared Link report "user who created shared link"

    Please add information about the user who created shared link to Shared Link report.
    Using User Activity report is NOT an effective solution to decipher information who created the shared link and on what folder/file.

  16. I want to output all collaborated listings including subfolders.

    In the Collaboration Report, please add collaboration information that includes subfolders of the folder to which the user is invited.
    The existing feature only allows information on folders to which users are invited.

    Once this functionality is implemented, the administrator will be able to see all folders to which the user is collaborating, and will be able to create management reports seamlessly.

    and seamlessly generate management reports.

    When an admin conducts and enterprise wide search, it would be great if the results could be exported. This would allow one to sort the data and and sum the size of all the files/folders.

  18. Collaboration Report - Add Last Accessed Column

    Box Admin frequently runs reports on all external collaborators who they work with and wants to remove external collaborators from files that they haven't accessed in awhile. Wants to be able to run a report that filters to all external collaborators and allows you to see the files that they are collaborated on AND the last date that they accessed those files. This will help the admin determine if an external collaborator can be removed from a file. The collaborator report allows you to do most of this. However, the Collaborator report is missing a "last accessed" column. The request…

  19. Add information about when users clicks a bookmark to the user activity report

    Currently, the behavior when users click a bookmark created in Box and move to the link destination is not included in the user activity report.
    Administrators want to check which they used bookmarks and when from Box and which sites they accessed from the log.
    Please add information about when they click a bookmark to the user activity report.

    <アクティビティレポートにブックマークをクリックしたときの情報を追加してほしい>
    現在は、Boxに作成したブックマークをクリックし、リンク先へ遷移した際の動作がアクティビティレポートに記載されません。
    管理者は、どのユーザーが、いつ、Box上からブックマークを利用し、どのサイトへアクセスしたのかログから確認したいと思っています。
    アクティビティレポートにブックマークをクリックしたときの情報を追加してください。

  20. Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, rather than all users

    Admin Console Collaborations Report - Offer ability to filter by one External User, which is faster, rather than pull data for all users, which can take way too long.
