  2. About modifying storage values in the User Details report

    <About modifying storage values in the User Details report>
    Just like the storage value of Insights in the Admin console has been corrected, we request that the user details report will also be corrected to display more correct values.
    Due to the UI change, the Insights storage in the management console now displays a relatively correct value, but the user details report has not been corrected and is now showing a lower value.
    As a result, there is a difference between the storage value in Insights and the total storage value output in the user details report.

    <ユーザーの詳細レポートのストレージの値の修正について>
    管理コンソールのインサイトのストレージ値の修正がされたように、ユーザー詳細レポートもより正しい値が表示されるよう修正をお願いします。
    UI変更に伴い管理コンソールのインサイトのストレージは比較的正しい値が表示されるようになったが、ユーザーの詳細レポートでは修正されておらず少なく表示されています。…

  3. To be able to run a report on folders that a group has access to

    Collaboration Report on Groups to list all access to users added/removed and folders. This will likely help Box admins to track user groups, users and associated folders all in one. Currently, you need to go to the group in order to view the members of the group and what folders are currently given to the group.

  4. Bandwidht monitor and reports

    As there is this mostly new policy in regards of the bandwidth limit per user (1 Tb), which in case of any user using more than the limit will automatically closes the account (loosing all the information), I suggest the creation of a command which allows the admin to monitor very clear the bandwidth usage, so measures can be taken if the limit is being reached.

  5. 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.

  6. Add more detail to Box Admin Report folder descriptions

    Background:In the headers of folders created by Box when Box Admin Reports are run, there is "Folder description". This gives various details associated with the report, including:
    Status, Report type, Run on, Date range

    Enhancement Required and Reason:
    When there are so many reports being run during the day, and having to wait for them to complete, it would be helpful to add further metadata:
    - Users or groups - any and all selected during report preparation
    - Affected folders and files - any and all selected during report preparation

  7. If a user's email address is changed on the management console, please write the changed address.

    Currently, when a user's primary email address is changed on the admin console, it is reported as an "Edit User" item in the "User Activity Report." However,
    it is not possible to determine whether the "Edit user" item refers to a change in the primary email address just from the display on the report,
    so it is necessary to check the email address change notification date and time each time. Please add an item to the "User Activity Report" when you enter your email address on the management console,
    or I would like the functionality to be improved so that…

  9. Please implement the ability for Admins to specify the folder to export to when exporting a report.

    In the course of our work, we sometimes share reports exported by Admin to users.
    Currently, this is handled by inviting users as viewers to the exported reports (folders).
    However, due to the need to share reports on a regular basis, a huge number of report folders are currently displayed on the user's "All Files" screen.
    These folders are expected to continue to grow, and users are already finding Box very difficult to use at this time.

    Please implement the ability for Admins to specify the folder to export to when exporting a report.

    業務の上で、管理者が出力したレポートをユーザーに共有することがあります。
    現在は出力されたレポート(フォルダ)にユーザーをビューアーとして招待して対応しています。
    しかし、定期的にレポートの共有が必要なため、現在は膨大な数のレポートフォルダがユーザーのすべてのファイル直下に表示されています。
    これらのフォルダはこのまま増え続ける見込みで、ユーザーは現時点で既にBoxを大変利用しづらい状況となっています。

    管理者がレポートを出力する際に、出力先フォルダを指定できるようにしてください。

  10. Show Affected File Details in Exported User Activity Report for Removed Collaborations

    When running a User Activity Report on Removed Collaborations, you are able to see the granular file name details on the Box website when selecting "View" and hovering over the affected user.

    Please include this in the report output that is exported when selecting "Run" as currently the report only shows "Parent Folder" which is misleading when restoring access as there are cases when the collaborator only had permission to a specific file inside the parent folder causing issues when restoring access for users that were offboarded and then onboarded again due to internal processes.

    This will also improve audit…

  12. Actions to make documents and folders (box drive, 'Make Available Offline' ) appear in reports as Downloads - same as normal downloads

    When identifying anomolous downloads (ie potential data leakage), we utilise both Box Shield alerts and User Activity reports to establish details.

    However, User Activity reports (csv, column E 'Action') do not differentiate between those documents and folders downloaded, and those that are 'Made Available Offline'. When attempting to avoid data leakage, the difference is important. Making content available offline is a legitimate task for users. However, large quantities of normal downloads may indicate fraudulent theft of data.

    We need to be able to differentiate between the two types, as soon as possible

    Because User Activity Reports record items as 'Download'…

  13. Enhanced filtering/sorting when selecting folders and files

    When selecting the affected folders and files the search filtering could use some enhancements.

    I'll use the user filter options and search for a keyword but there are so many hits to filter through - it would be great to have some options on sorting the list. At the very least to sort alphabetically.

  15. 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…

  17. Allow End Users to run a Collaborations Report for Content they Own

    As organizations scale, IT Admins may want to enable end users to manage their own content and who has access to this content. Users being able to run a collaborations report and/or a folder and files report on content that they own is important for enabling users to manage their own content collabs so that these responsibilities can be distributed, and don't necessarily fall solely on the admin and security teams who manage Box to audit content and associated collaborations. End users that own content should be empowered with all the tools necessary to manage who has access to content…

  18. Detailed reports on the number of API calls

    The API has a rate limit, and an error will occur if it is exceeded.
    This time, an error occurred because the number of API calls exceeded the rate limit.
    We would like to launch apps during times when the number of API calls is low, but at this time there is no way to check the number of API calls in a time range.

    Please implement a report that allows us to see which apps are making API calls, at what time of day, and to what extent.

    <APIコール数に関する詳細なレポート>

    APIにはレート制限があり、それを超えるとエラーが発生します。
    今回はAPIコール数がレート制限を超えたため、エラーが発生していました。
    APIコール数が少ない時間帯にアプリを起動したいのですが、現時点では時間帯のAPIコール数を確認する方法がありません。

    どのアプリが、どの時間帯に、どの程度APIコールを行っているかを確認できるレポートを実装してください。

  19. 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 ?

  20. 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.
